If you can't summon up as much bravery as the folks actually fighting back, GTFO. I'd call her a cunt but she lacks the depth and warmth.

Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

You nailed it, we're getting into a "following orders" type scenario now, if you don't agree with what they're doing but too scared to do anything to stop them, then step down! If you can't do your job which is to protect the people you represent then let someone else step in.
Republicans are so spineless they let a low IQ felon rapist take over their party and cuck them.
Neat. Unfortunately, my tiny violin was repossessed.
Fuck these people. She supported this , and now she’s going to pretend to have feelings. No, you don’t get to do that. We remember.

I gotchu fam:
I mean I get it, because I'm also scared of Donny. But at the same time... It kinda is someone's job to stand up to him, no?
It's literally her job
Leopards be feasting
I wonder if she's tried furrowing her brow.
If only there was anything anyone could do before we got here
Welp them’s the breaks
5-10 Republicans, that's all it would take to impeach him in the house, and less required to remove in the senate. Clearly he can ignore most lawful orders, but if Congress came together to stop him, I'd argue that would be the end of him, no matter how hard he wants to fight.
America is becoming a technocracy and the political class are so paralyzed, they think a technocratic government would have space for them because they are rich and powerful now.
Technocracy means the masses are ruled by a panel of experts in their fields. Scientific, expert advice sets policy, ie. Logic rules supreme. America is not, is not becoming, and never will be, a technocracy.
America has been an oligarchy for a while, now it's going full authoritarian.

"We are afraid", they say while wiping their tears away with $100 bills.
What a fucking piece of shit she is.
They're scared of the wrong thing.
We need to show them what they should really be afraid of.
Wow she sure has some strong words. Coward.
DO SOMETHING about it then. They have the power to do it.
Oh you're afraid the leopard is going to eat your face??
So if she, as a Republican ally is this afraid, how does she think his actual enemies feel?
Pathetic cowards.
Don't criticize him . KICK HIM TO THE CURB!!
IF IT’S UNLAWFUL THEN DO SOMETHING JFC
Yeah, we have been well aware of this since the 2016 primaries. You are all massive chicken-shits who’s fear of a con artist eclipses your duty to the American people and the constitution. I’ll be sure to make a note of it in case I forget.
Quick, let me find the world's smallest fiddle for these absolutely repugnant assholes. Go ahead, sell out the entire fucking country for power and then try to give us your fucking sob story. I'll get to you right after I finish mourning the people you've sent to the death camps, I swear.
They should be equally as afraid of enabling Trump. That’s where we come in.
You're scared? However scared you are is nothing compared to the people you are supposed to be representing. And if they can start making a stand against this you have no fucking excuse for your inaction.
