When will ANY of the Republican Congress stand for Americans, free themselves of servitude to Trump insanity, represent their constituents and stop the pandering to the wealthy? They were elected by everyday Americans who require their help now more than ever. Rise or be replaced. The masses protested in Hands Off demonstrations and it’s time to respond appropriately.

A few will in the Senate like Lisa Murkowski, but the other 98% will go down with the ship. Many of them in the House will lose their jobs next year, and they still proclaim their loyalty to Trump.---Jason

Just underscores how the GOP no longer cares about responsibility for Americans but are willing to commit their loyalty to a man with no regard for the rule of law, the constitution or democracy. As children we recited the Pledge of Allegiance…too bad it’s been forgotten.

I also suspect the Republicans in Congress are being threatened and coerced. I find it so overwhelming to believe they are going along withe the destruction of our country, so willingly. Disgraceful. They will be voted out.

In what way can they be threatened or coerced by the current regime? What is it they fear more than an end to their political careers? Curious

Certainly there will be Trump MAGA die-hards-till-death who believe only what Trump says is the truth. But I am becoming more optimistic because there are SO many more of We the People (the vast majority of the American population; not the 1%, 10%, not even 25%, and we are not corporations. This is our country. So many generations of us rising up, stepping up, and never giving up on our Constitutional Democracy of the people, by the people, for the people. We will not be robbed blind, stripped of our rights, by a delusional psychotic POTUS. His cruelty, violence, and greater disconnect from reality escalate daily. Every executive order, Project 2025 end goals, DOGE data death squad all have something in common which are maladaptive groupthink ($$$ fossil fuel) and behaviors (destroy Earth's life sustaining environment to the point of no return). Pollute the air and water, bake at 175°F for 12 months or until crisp. Another theory is reverse evolution. Republicans devolved unto a less intelligent subspecies. Human forward evolution grew our brains larger as we learned and adapted to our environment We became more intelligent and grew our frontal lobes, cerebellum, and cerebral cortex. In reverse evolution when organs or body parts are no longer used or needed an organism will eventually devolve by shrinking and eventually eliminating that organ or body part that's no longer needed. The right-gone-wrong-wing's (shrunken brain SubRepubs) extreme denial of reality with respect to living organisms on planet Earth is flabbergasting. As adults they became politicians and once upon a time used to do work for we the people. These organisms still inhabit political areas but for a very long time now there have been no signs of executive function, deductive reasoning or abstract thinking. A decade of brain inactivity and lack of function matches the decade of SubRepub behavior observation. Future generations of their offspring will have smaller brains and even less intelligence. We the normal brain human people together would be a Loud Proud Crowd. We might have to peacefully surround confront and overwhelm them.
