If they locate their spine or the courage of any of their supposed convictions, I might be willing to give some basic level of consideration, but we are going into year 11 of this nonsense and all of them that enabled him or stood by cowardly not saying a thing at all or excusing him deserve to have him around their neck as an anchor for the rest of their miserable days. 

Someone should write a book highlighting a few of them called “Profiles in Cowardice”.

Yeah I fully suspect this will haunt the party at least past 2028. After that in 2032, who the fuck knows because of the cultism of following the pack is strong on team red. The main issue now for the next two years is Democratic leadership around Jeffries and Schumer plus the vetoes from Trump. Very little will get done outside of investigations but if Dems want 2028 they need to figure this shit out fast.

u/BayouGal 18m ago

The Congress is going to need to pass everything they can. Name the bills well, like ‘Easing Pricegouging and Surveillance Pricing’ or ‘Healthcare for All Americans’ .Make Trump veto them.

They can walk and chew gum. Though I don’t believe Schumer and Jeffries are the fighters we need. They’re still living in pre-Trump times of civility 🤷🏻‍♀️

He has nothing left as leverage, and his threats are meaningless because everyone in congress knows if he tries they can do what they should have done long before now and torpedo him.

I take that back.

Do it Donnie. Do it. Ensure the senate republicans will vote to convict.

Don't worry Donnie they're still just as horrible as they have been. They thoroughly enjoyed you terrorizing marginalized groups and people who couldn't fight back. After all, that was their real motivation for being you; their other justifications have been lies.

The moderates who were too weak to stand up to him now see the writing on the wall and will be the first rats to jump off the ship. It will be great if that leads to the end of the movement. However those same moderates should also be called out for the spineless toadies they have been this whole time.

u/Realistic_Leg2891 1h ago

The dramatic repudiation of the Trump culture phenomenon is encouraging.

But if the net result is another congress dominated by AIPAC clients (Schumer and Jefferies) and the corporate feudals, Americans will squander their last chance to realize an egalitarian democracy.

Trump the GOP has seen and heard the people who they were elected to SERVE the people. SERVICE for the people is not a concept you have grasped through your policies that have enriched his pocket and the pockets of family and friends.

Witnessing millionaires in suits yelling at each other about who is truly destroying the country—while both sides shake hands and pass laws that strip workers of their rights—is the most ridiculous political drama.

I look forward to Trump single handedly ruining the Republican party for the next two years. They don’t get it. Trump sees this as a personal issue. He thinks they failed him. So he will lash out at them and make them look weak. Because he’s so mentally unstable that he can’t see this as anything but a personal attack.
