"They don't have the balls to confront (Trump) on anything."

Acyn @Acyn 2h
Rep. McGovern: I think Trump is seriously ill. He needs medical attention. There needs to be an intervention from his family or someone in his cabinet—I would say some of the Republicans here, but they don’t have the balls to confront him on anything.

that his capacities have expired. So tired of him being treated as if he's a competent party capable with enlightening us with anything besides fog-headed blather. I get it. The mainstream corporate media gets in line for "white-men-first" white men whom they fear in ways they don't fear people like President Biden. It's America's oldest game.
