Remember: The Republican Congress could end this now. THEY REFUSE

Force them to forever wear the mantle of this despicable sexual predator, liar, and conman until the Republican Party is DEAD, DEAD, DEAD.

I'm sure they see no need to deviate from the monster they created. They will emulate when he is gone.

Without lifting a finger to stop it.

And they continue to not stop it.

nothing better than to be rid of Trump if they can figure out a way to corral Trump's voters. Trump follows 2025, but they don't like his answering to his other master....Putin, and also his insane personal wild ass, fanatical actions, as well as he and his families horrendous personal grifting........

I envision the Republicans getting rid of Trump, or croaking, in the very near future, and somehow (corruptly) getting Stephen Miller as President and Russel Vought as VP..............

Bite your tongue! Nosferatu Miller as Dictator?!!? That would be the final straw for me.
Republicans want to rule over the ashes of whatever's left when The Gangrenous Boil On The Ass Of Humanity checks out. Then they can institute the vengeful theocracy they've always dreamed of, and make A Handmaid's Tale look like a Saturday morning cartoon.

country and the world will continue on a death spiral. In 6 months things will get so bad, the Republicans politicians MIGHT abandon him.

If we lived in a just and rational world, they'd remove him right now. Unfortunately we don't.

The Republicans who LET him. Yes I live around "on the fence" voters. When people I know see me they know whats coming. I am relentless in my pleading for them to vote and why. I carry around printouts from news articles (many that I get here!) and hand them to them. I go to a diner for breakfast 4 or 5 times a week (the only meal I can afford to eat out), and I engage these people there. Sometimes they get pissed, sometimes they listen. The hardcore MAGAt's are lost, but some of their buddies aren't and that's who I try to reach. But I always try and re-enforce that it's not him so much as it is Republicans being lazy and cashing in with their tax dollars. We really need to get the word out to folks that just ridding ourselves of FatFuck won't fix anything. We need to rid ourselves of Republican majorities.

They’re getting just about everything they want out of this. They don’t have a problem with anything that’s going on. And if you’re pissed off/scared/suffering it’s all the better for them. They don’t give a fuck.
