If McConnell had carried out his elected duty and moved forward in impeachment the first time we wouldn’t be in this mess- but since he was more concerned about his legacy (and how is that working out, Mitch?) we are now in this nightmare of a mess!
A very true statement about how the Republican Party will be remembered! I’m afraid it won’t change any minds, partly because they are IN too deep to let it go, and partly because they are afraid of the “brown shirt” crowd in the party!
Thugs who have sipped the poison laced Koolaid from ‘47 too many times. They are threatening violence against whole families if they don’t conform to Trumpism..
I have no hope that any of those Senators will do the right thing! I have no doubt that they will stand behind their Messiah either out of fear or complicity!
Any 4 of them can be literal heroes by just taking back the power of their own positions. But, instead they show the world just how weak and whipped they are and THAT will be each one of their legacies!
I think I am learning a few things during this horrific time in United States history. I have learned that people, and especially those with a little power and a lot of money will usually want more of those things. And when they are centered in that, when they are walking away from decency- they stop caring about their legacy. They no longer care about people or nations or anything that is good. They decide to take and take and find more ways to take. And those of us who want to leave a legacy that makes others smile and love us…. We are disappeared.Darkness hates those who seek light. Yes.This is a never ending terror ride, a mess and a time when nightmares follow us into morning and mourning. Once again, I urge others to become storytellers, whispering the joys of living free and in peace. Tell the story of what happened when we enjoyed our freedom more than we were willing to fight for it. I wildly hope that even though we are gasping for breath, a way will be found to stop this destruction.
I’m with you all the way, sister! I will never let anyone take away my light and I will fight till my dying breath to shine! ✨ 🫶🏻
But, I’m not blind to what we are quickly becoming or even how we got here! Greed, fear, ignorance, and hate have bound together and I have never seen such darkness in our country as it grows by the day! I’m trying to stay hopeful for the ones that I ❤️! 🌹✊🏻💪🏻
Yes,Laura.we will keep on fighting. I’m not sure what giving up would be like.. how it would feel. This anger and disappointment is exhausting. Ok. I am with you. I will order high potency vitamins. ✌🏼
Yes.It is. I don’t sleep anymore until 1 AM. I am craving sugar.😂I don’t even know what should concern me most. Let’s see what’s ahead. Keep hanging on with hope
Since so many of the Republicans don’t like the path that is happening it doesn’t seem a good enough reason for them to be fearful of one man, when all it would take would be all of them saying no… And if they lose their job so what?

Fear of Facing Their Own Hypocrisy
For years, Republicans:
- Preached "family values" but backed a thrice-married adulterer.
- Demanded "law and order" but supported an insurrectionist.
- Claimed to love the Constitution but enabled its subversion.
Confronting Trump would force them to confront their own moral rot … and that’s psychologically unbearable.
Moral rot- that is a perfect description of Trump and his supporters!

Well, they didn’t the first time so I’d say the odds are pretty poor…
