The story of the Republican party and Trump voters is the story of Frankenstein.

The Republicans created the monster (Trump voters) with years of propaganda. The Republicans now live in complete fear of the monster. The monster has them hostage, the monster will destroy them if they do anything the monster does not like.

It is the monster (Trump voters) that is holding our country hostage. They are the root cause of everything that is happening now. If not for the Trump voters, Trump would already be gone, hell, he never would have been elected.

We must find a way to free ourselves from the Trump voters. We have to find away to free the sane Republicans in congress from the Trump voters so they can vote to convict Trump and remove that piece of shit from office.

I do not know how to do this. Hopefully the Democrats in congress, people like Pelosi, can find the way to free the Republicans from the monster so they can do the right thing. We know Moscow Mitch will not do it. Hell, that fucking asshole is now raising money on the issue of impeachment.

too: YOUR monster Mitch & co. Blind if they couldn't see it coming.

There will be a huge psychiatric reckoning, similar to Germany after WWII, but fortunately a smaller magnitude.

It's like the invasion of the body-snatchers. Like Jim Jones' cult on steroids. Mob mentality.

I am quite certain it will be the focus of socio-/psychological study for years to come..

the movie Young Frankenstein had the right idea: get the doctor to create a mate for the monster.

Yeah, I know the idea came up first in the early 30s, but I like the Mel Brooks approach better.
