(32,727 posts)It's over. Not because WE ended it, but because the rats are jumping ship before the boat sinks. They're "leaving"/ returning to regular order on their own accord.

(16,786 posts)Amy McGrath is paying close attention to what is taking place. I hear her campaign is hitting McConnell hard on ALL Of his obstruction going back to the early Obama days of his first term and McConnell's saying that his objective was " to deny President Obama a 2nd term" when in front of the Heritage Society.

(13,903 posts)f**ked himself. It would not surprise me if there is some scheme by the GOP and Trump in works though.
If this is the end for Trump, they need to impeach Barr and the acting DNI as well. Rudy needs to go down as well.
Well at least that would be a good start.

(2,787 posts)either one he is trying to get ahead of this. My guess either republicans will admit Trump did something bad, but will spin it as not being worthy of impeachment or they have made the calculation that it is in their best interest to go ahead and throw Trump under the bus. I would bet they probably defend Trump.
