A note to Democrats and Republicans in Congress:

Trump will do whatever he can get away with. If there is no cop on the corner, he will rob the bank.

There is no bottom with this guy.

Do not deceive yourselves into thinking it will get better. It will not.

If you do not call this guy out, he will destroy our country.

It is more important than your seat in the House or the Senate.

Wake the hell up!

I think it is important to include both Parties in their responsibility to protect our country. It is not just up to the Democrats.

There is no right or wrong trumps sphere. There is only what is best for “me” in his mind. If he had his druthers (as Preet Bharara says) he would be every bit as bad as Putin/MBS. He would love to have dictatorial power. The House and Senate need to “wake up” as you say ASAP.

We cannot wait for the next election. His people in the background (Parscale, Glassner, Bannon etc) will see to it that with Russia’s help trump wins. He needs to be removed by congress because he will not leave by his own volition. Even if he lost re-election I do not believe he would leave the office. He would claim it was rigged or start a crisis (war) that only “he”can fix and only if “he” is president. I think this is especially true if it comes out that indictments are waiting to be filed against him once leaves office and looses the immunity from Justice the office apparently provides. He would happily go scorched Earth and burn the village down before leaving voluntarily.

He will have to be dragged out or threatened with arrest. Otherwise, he will do whatever he wants.
