The reason Putin and Trump are on a tear is ABSOLUTELY the Republicans

I am wondering why they aren’t directly pushing Trump as a form of self preservation at the polls this fall.

Their absolute disregard for the rule of law, treason, and foreign powers attacking us is astounding.

I believe they are all in Russian shit neck deep.

They knew demographics don’t favor them so in 2016 they got in bed with Putin to retain power and get a GOP President even if they helped elect the Antichrist.

I wouldn't go so far as to accuse an entire party to be treasonous. But there there have clearly been actions taken by specific committee chair assignments, the speaker of the house and the senate majority leader that goes beyond the pale.

We need both houses of Congress this Nov. . We need to take back control of the House, but also we need badly the Senate also , or some things will continue to worsen. Ryan and McConnell are compromised, and have to be removed from their positions.

We need to have the largest voter turnout for an election in U.S. history. We need to stop the Repugs and Trump in their tracks. We need to have historic numbers of voters such that Russian hackers and the Repugs can't possibly steal the election. GOTV!!!!
