Trump is challenging Congress and the laws of this country.

Maybe this is the appropriate time for a censure?

The Congress cannot permit anyone to ignore the laws and the requests of the Congress. They cannot fold on this issue.

They are showing a tremendous amount of patience up to this point.

At some point, they must show people that they are serious about protecting our Constitution and the laws of this country.

If subpoenas are ignored, they must be ready to hold these people in contempt. If necessary, they must be ready to put them under arrest until they are ready to cooperate.

They must be ready to impeach the Attorney General if he cannot hold people to laws of this country.

It is not meant to resolve these types of lawlessness thru elections. The officials sworn to do their jobs must do their jobs.

It is a time to stand up for law and order. This is no place for the faint-hearted or weak-willed.

They can censure without the approval of the Senate.

he was. I was truly worried when all the hate, division, and violence was exhibited at his campaign rallies. Horrible situation we are in. McConnell is a treasonous bastard too.

The damage they have done to this country cannot be calculated or quantified.

muzzle his officials, poison or even kill them? Now tRump feels emboldened, he needs to be ousted out of office.

He is out of control and his vindictiveness and paranoia is mounting and dangerous.
