It’s time for Republicans in Congress to show if they are patriots or partisans
I might be wrong, but I think the democrats in Congress are pretty partisan in their own right. Or maybe not.
Not really the point.

Only one party is harboring a crime family in the White House. The other party defended a President for wearing a tan suit.

Asking for a friend, to see where the floor might be (if there is one!): what action by Trump, if any, will cause the loss of your support?

Obviously, admitted sexual assault, obstructing justice, getting an enemy state to help with electioneering, paying porn actresses hush money, running up a huge deficit and consequently a huge debt are all OK even though in the past Republicans were against all these things.

Small price to pay in order to get a critical mass of fellow sexual assaulters on the Supreme Court, I guess.

I have no desire for a Donald Trump second term. As much as I don’t desire a Donald Trump second term, I don’t desire a Bernie Sanders or Elizabeth warren first term .

Oh no, can't have any nuance. That's not allowed. Must choose one side and be a company man.

What about Yang? Intelligent people can be misguided, but he's got the most potential to lead us in a better direction.

I have people that have been studying Yang's birth certificate and they cannot believe what they're finding ... I would like to have him show his birth certificate, and can I be honest with you, I hope he can. Because if he can't, if he can't, if he wasn't born in this country, which is a real possibility ... then he has pulled one of the great cons in the history of politics.

If you had to, who would you pick among those candidates you mention?

I personally would go with Pocahontas...

That was not my question, but ousie has the correct take on your answer: you seem to prefer a lawbreaker to a not-lawbreaker.

My question was what would it take for you to not support Trump?

Trump always says he has done the most, has the best, has spent the most, etc. He certainly seems to have the most costly Opposition Research ever. $391 million in military aid certainly should pay for a lot of oppo research.

So, it turns out that in addition to chief of staff Mulvaney and SOS Pompeo, among other members of the Administration, some members of the republican senate were aware of Trump’s extortion scheme to pressure another foreign nation to interfere in our 2020 election, too. Yet, they put party ahead of country, again.

Vladimir must be so jealous!

If the choices in 2020 are between Donald Trump and warren or sanders, I vote for some third party no name.

Those 3 are unacceptable.

I don't think anyone could have guessed this would happen. Especially when you're desperate for a counter narrative, going into 2020:

Yeah! Leave it to the trumpublican party to bring back McCarthyism!

Well done Bill Barr, this is how you do it, not that tepid slurping that Graham does. He barely touches the tip with his tongue. By Gawd if you are gonna blow tiny then let's hear you gag a little, I wanna see a viscous string of spittle dangle from your chin while you do it. Bill Barr giving a full throated supplication to the god king trump to prove his complete submission. I have to give it to trump, for a flaccid old half wit he has reduced the conservatives to bunch of bootlicking sycophants while pushing forward every wet dream Putin had. It is an impressive sight.

Well done!

Thank you for your servicing trumpublicans, blow him like my tax breaks are on the line here. 5 more years of tax breaks! You sleazy whores can do it, I know you can. Come on, gag and keep my tax cuts in place.
