And I am even angrier at them than I am at Schlump. Collectively, the Republicans in Congress have the power to do something about this, and they are refusing to use it. He needs to be impeached and removed from office. The power to impeach is vested in the House, and the power to convict him and remove him from office belongs to the Senate. And we all know which party controls both the House and the Senate right now.

Schlump is destroying our government and our economy, alienating our allies, and disrupting the structures that have kept the world from descending into the horror of nuclear war for the last 80 years, and those GOP nincompoops in Congress are just letting him do it!

I find it both horrifying and enraging that those nimrods can sit there pretending not to see what's happening, even lying to their constituents about it (to the extent that they communicate with their constituents at all). They've made a bargain with that Orange Hellbeast, literally sold their souls to him, together with all of our futures, and I hate loathe, and despise them for it.
