A week ago, the Republican National Committee forced GOP lawmakers into a time for choosing. Its resolution referring to the violent insurrection at the Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021, as “ordinary citizens engaged in legitimate political discourse,” which remains in force a week later, spells it out in plain language: The GOP stands with the insurrectionists of Jan. 6.

Again, the good news first: Seven Senate Republicans, including Minority Leader Mitch McConnell, directly criticized the GOP’s insurrectionist platform.

The bad news: This means (unless I’ve missed any others) 43 Senate Republicans did not. The Republican Party legitimized political violence, and 86 percent of Senate Republicans let it stand. Among House Republicans, the numbers were even worse.

Flunk tRump as the GOP that conspired with tRump to wage insurrectionist war on Democracy and society should be trembling in fear at the thought of being surrounded by the forces of Justice in the U.S.
 
Don't know if the GOP is, but the Left and Democrats sure as Hell are! They're so scared they can't stop babbling about him for a nanosecond.
 
I feel with Trump like I feel with Candace....embarrassed that it took me so long to figure out that they tend to be right.

Great question. People tend to be nervous around someone demanding and erratic; add immense political power and it may become scary even when you think you are on his side.

Anyone with sense should worry about Trump having Presidential power. The "babbling" as you see it would disappear if his reelection prospects disappeared.
