Republicans in Congress could make all this stop any time they want. Remember that.

“A top Goldman Sachs executive summed up the frustration with Mr. Trump succinctly: Someone has to stop him.”

They're more spineless than congressional democrats tho

All these execs need to go to their office safes, pull out the book of incriminating evidence we all know they have, and visit Republican senators.

I never forget it

Yes

Thank you

When will we reach the point of no political return for every Member of Congress who will not vote to turn this around?

When?

Those sumbitches voted for this too. He had their tacit approval from the start. The same can be said for the money men.

The Kool-Aid is being served in the Republican cloakroom.

It's too late. Countries are realigning their trading partners and the US isn't welcome.

They have had that ability since he came down the escalator to announce he was running for President. They sold their souls, spines, and credibility to a huckster who will stab them in the back as soon as he doesn't need them.

Less than 10 republicans could make this stop but they won’t. Vote them out.

secretoriginz.bsky.social•2 days ago

Yet strangely, those very powerful people who donate to all of those Republicans apparently aren't asking them to do that. Strange huh?

Not without those Goldman Sachs millionaires telling them to.

What is the best way to force them to change?

proflupton.bsky.social•2 days ago

Keep the pressure up. Call them. Letter write. Public demonstrations. Get Dems in Congress to put on even more pressure and slow everything to a halt until midterms.

Excellent ideas. Thanks, Dr Danielle.

I think about that multiple times a day. Mind-blowing.

Republicans in Congress are traitors to the constitution for NOT stopping ALL of this insanity

Republicans super disappointed in Democrats right now.

It would take 10 Republicans in Congress to stop the wrecking ball

The bar is so incredibly low and yet they continue to fail America spectacularly.

gustavmeyrink.bsky.social•2 days ago

That is how it is going to play out.

Once polling shifts (the wind) peoples flags will turn.

No need for impeachment, just a last flight out and flashing the victory sign or, alternatively, the Trump 'jerk off dance'.

And these Wall Street bastards - who are panicking now - did everything g they could to bring all this on themselves and us.

Donald and Elon are the personifications of the Republican Party eh?

rcopelander.bsky.social•2 days ago

They actually want it

judgetrainer.bsky.social•2 days ago

Last November would have been a good time for that.

obearwan-kenobi.bsky.social•2 days ago

At some point it will be more beneficial for GOP members, in regards to retaining their seat, to oppose Trump right?

eadgm.bsky.social•2 days ago

Exactly my thought seeing all the protests yesterday. How many of us were out there? Naively, I thought they would want to protect themselves (whatever it takes) and stand up for what is right and what people are calling for.
