BOP silence has nothing to do with fear or cowardice. The real facts are that the GOP supports every bit of the Trump agenda. The simply are ok with him being crazy as a mad hatter. And the overwhelmingly support his agenda on immigration, deregulation, racism, bigotry, misogyny, corruption, lawless ness, authoritarianism etc etc. etc.
If we have not learned such buy now I do not know when we will. The GOP is simply hiding their real agenda and intentions because they are so unpopular. The GOP just does not want the ;public to know that they are going to pursue damage and destruction.

(14,972 posts)Flake, Corker, Collins, Murkowski et al are not timid in the face of Trump b/c they are afraid. They speak against him but act in concert with him because they ultimately support what he is doing. Their squeamishness about him, so far as it exists, is about his style/packaging -- i.e. empty posturing.

(269,026 posts)I heard that a significant majority of Re THUGs support his views on race. That is proof that they are the party of racists.

(2,273 posts)Trump passed the first round of tax cuts, giving them more money. Now hes talking about more tax cuts. As long as Trump keeps allowing them (and their corporate masters) to profit off the rest of us, they will continue supporting him. They dont care about anything but whats in it for them.
