What do we do when our president isnt an American patriot? Do we have any recourse to

save our democracy and American way of life? equally disturbing, what do we do when our congress is in thrall to an unpatriotic president?

Benjamin Franklin said when asked, What kind of nation do you have? A republic, if you can keep it.

Can we keep it? Will we lay down like a collection of cowards and let this be done to us?
Our constitution and its tenets are under direct attack by Russia. The president refuses to act. He barely even addresses the issue except to deny culpability in the attack.

Where is our congress? They too took an oath, are they willing to acquiesce to Russia and hand over our sovereignty to a foreign power for cash?

Why are these questions even relevant in this day and especially in this country?
