4. Republicans will never implicate themselves. We don't have the votes.

Not right now, at least. Our best help (and what is going on right now) is the fourth estate.

Informing the public. Mobilizing forces for 2018.

I appreciate our Democratic leaders stepping up to the plate, but we really need some bone crushers -- people that not only have the rhetoric but command the respect to push the few honest Republicans into doing the right thing for the country.

I think Schiff and other Democrats in Congress are working behind the scenes on gathering the proof. But we need at least one branch of government in our hands in order to make things happen.

Will we survive until we are able to take back the House? I think so. There are also people in government agencies that support democracy and oppose Trump. If Trump's tax returns leak, that would be a game changer.

McConnell and Ryan are total arseholes.

Scum of the earth.
