Proven Liar Donald Trump’s enablers need to be publicly shamed into acting. It is not nearly enough to occasionally say critical things about Proven Liar Donald Trump . (Yes I use that name for him every time I write about him Everyone should). There is no excuse for the Republican congress to be turning a blind eye to the criminal level of conspiracy, corruption and obstruction of justice that goes on every day. If any of them saw the disgraceful performance by Rudy Giuliani being interviewed by Chuck Todd this morning they no longer even have a fig leaf to hide behind. Seeing the blatant lies, contradictions and sleaze that come blasting out of this White House every day (And twice on Sundays!) has made it obvious that there is literally no conscience or competence to be found anywhere in this administration.
Obviously there is a large core of the Republican party that is compromised by some combination of greed or cowardice that will not act. However, there are a few Republican senators that may still have enough salvageable character left to take a stand.
It is well past time for Democratic leaders to mount a sustained campaign to pressure the Republicans who profess to have some sort of conscience to act. It is time for Democrat after Democrat to to stand in the well of the US Senate and publicly call out those Republicans by name. "Susan Collins-Stop pretending you don't see what is happening. Now is he time when history calls you to put country over party and even your own political future. Resign from the Republican party. Caucus as an independent with Democrats on the issues of Presidential criminality, obstruction of justice and abuse of power. Lisa Murkowski- Now is the time. Jeff Flake- Now is the time. Bob Corker-Now is the time. John McCain- Now is the time. If not now, when??History is watching and your actions at this country's hour of need will be noted by future generations."
Flip those 5 Senators on those Trump issues and we have a Senate that can fight for our country. If not now when?
