Republicans have remained loyal to Trumpenstein for a single reason; they are desperate to receive the votes of his supporters. They are ignoring the fact that they are diminishing and a large majority of American voters despise the orange man. The impeachment process has begun and Republicans are now frantic and uncertain of what to do or say. They have two choices, support Fox Noise’ conspiracy theories or support the future of our nation and do the right thing. Don’t expect most Republicans to ‘do the right thing.’ Moscow Mitch, Chuck Grassley, Lindsey Graham, John Cornyn, and others will continue to place their party first.

Reports from within the Capitol Building claim that ‘cracks are forming’ within the solidarity of the GOP. I would be pleased to see even a few Republicans support the Constitution and the American people.

On Monday, Ohio Sen. Rob Portman added his name to the list of careful Republican dissenters.

“The president should not have raised the Biden issue on that call, period. It’s not appropriate for a president to engage a foreign government in an investigation of a political opponent,” Portman said.

Holy S**t! I am shocked! Are some Republicans admitting that Trump is the greatest disaster ever to befall our nation? I doubt it will reach that extreme. The right-wing is self-righteous and arrogant and will remain so under the failed “leadership” of Moscow Mitch.
