Former Republican member of congress: 'Trump is unhinged. We are waiting to get tax bill through before impeachment'

Republicans are waiting to pass their tax-reform bill before they move to impeach Donald Trump, a former Republican member of Congress reportedly told a former US labour secretary.

In a Facebook post, Robert Reich said the former senator, an old friend of his, told him Republicans are "just praying Trump doesn't do something really, really stupid before the tax bill."

Speaking over the phone, Mr Reich said he asked his friend whether other Republican senators were preparing to follow Senator Bob Corker and "call it quits with Trump".

His source told him: "Others are thinking about doing what Bob did. Sounding the alarm. They think Trump’s nuts. Unfit. Dangerous."

1. THey really are willing to risk your son and daughters life, your grandsons

life, to get a tax cut.

They really actually are willing to see millions die to get it.

2. "Hold everything, we're busy stealing 1.5 TRILLION $$$$$$$ from ordinary people first."

Yeah, that's what I expect from Republicans!

3. Reich has been touting this anonymous friend for a long time

Sorry, Bob. I like a lot of what you have to say, but this is one of those "trust, but verify" situations.

Once the tax giveaway bill goes through, Republicans will name some other bill as the one they need to pass before impeachment. And then the next, and then the next, etc.

If he should be impeached, then impeach him. Otherwise, these GOP cowards are knowingly risking the nation and the constitution for the sake of a handout to the worst welfare queens of all.

9. He seems to have a lot of anonymous friends who say exactly what he wants them to say

Anonymous friends who deliver his messages in stilted dialogues. I assume they're all fictional, but he keeps it ambiguous as to whether we're meant to think so. I really dislike this device of his.

11. Probably has an girlfriend in Canada who you'll never meet but who's totally hot

I agree with you. I find it tiresome and amateurish.

4. Kind of optimistic that they can get a tax bill through aren't they....

[jrthin]

5. So, to get their tax bill, they will let this country burn.

They are pigs!!!!!!!!

6. Bullshit.

Republicans are cowards.
They are too craven to impeach Trump.
They are too divided and locked in their various tribes to even begin to write a cogent tax policy with reforms and cuts, let alone muster the 60 votes, that would need Dems, to pass it.

7. So the idiots don't think Mike Pence would sign a tax cut?

That's just another bullshit excuse.

10. They have no stomach for taking on Traitor Don and his deplorables

craven cowards

12. What more can you expect from a party who put a man (reagan) in office who had Alzheimers?

That's their m.o.
