Republicans Paralyzed by Trump

"SNIP..............


NY Times “Some of the highest-ranking Republicans in Congress and some of the party’s wealthiest and most generous donors have balked at trying to take down Mr. Trump because they fear a public feud with the insult-spewing media figure. Others warn that doing so might backfire at a time of soaring anger toward political insiders.”

“That has led to a standoff of sorts: Almost everyone in the party’s upper echelons agrees something must be done, and almost no one is willing to do it.”

and the Tea Party. (They are 1 party)

Own up to it and be proud of the hate and divisiveness you have caused.

Trump says in public what you cowards say behind closed doors !!!

You party is truly despicable.

Trump represents you perfectly.
