They’re in an interesting (self-inflicted) position. They can’t get re-elected without Trump’s voters, and they likely can’t get re-elected without standing up to Trump.
They’re desperate to hang on to power and they’re terrified of the Trump/Elon mean tweets.
“…his attempts to raise concerns internally within the NLRB preceded someone "physically taping a threatening note" to his door that included sensitive personal information and overhead photos of him walking his dog that appeared to be taken with a drone…”
The con will catch up with them. What they fail to grasp is that their political survival is tied to a figure whose influence is inherently unstable. Once the public fully reckons with the depth of the deception, its champions will find their support base eroding rapidly.
This may be weakening. Tonight Maddow went through an amazing set of polls from all parts of the spectrum. Even Fox News folks are turning against Trump's actions, including his treatment of immigrants (which was one of the biggies they voted for).
I have been wondering though, how many do you think are either 1. Being paid by Trump or 2.) compromised? I believe the top level of our government and possibly Rs are Russian assets.
I think you're right on some of them for sure. I think others are being threatened, their careers, their families, probably their lives. They know Trump's crazy cult would kill for him. Amy Coney Barrett's sister received a bomb threat over her votes, imagine the threats Congress is receiving!
Unfortunately they put themselves here: they should have stared FELON bully down a long time ago. They had their chance after 1/6. Perfect opportunity to impeach or at a minimum, not kiss his feet after. And they did.
The Family found a cult of personality superstar to give them whatever they wanted in return for giving him absolute power, reducing his debt, increasing his fame; all done because Daddy called him stupid and Mommy didn't love him
