    remember when the zelinski blackmail was a big thing. good times. history classes are going to be interesting talking about how the only way trump could do what he did was due to these complicit members in cogress at the time.

      Someone on here said, and I’m trying, that we should stop talking about Trump and say instead, “Republicans did <whatever awful thing>.”

        Yeah. I mean the constitution has a mechanism to stop this type of abuse and its impeachment. They know the constitution and the law. Then know this is wrong. I don’t know how they could not see how no ones going to come out of this better. Its ultimately on them. I would place most of the blame on congressional republicans, then on right biased judges making political rulings, and finally trump and his administration which gets into the whole machine behind it. Its crazy how many people have to be crazy to get this result. Think tanks, congressmen, judges, extreme rich folks, trump, maga.
