GOP Is In Trump's Back Pocket

On Meet The Press Sunday, Graham, who’s said he’s on such good terms with the president that he gets calls even when he’s asleep... is an example of who I thought was a Senator to get us out of this mess. He proves to be spineless. McCain is another. McConnell? This second article tells his story. 

In another article the author draws out the case how Trump is stacking the deck with inept, loyalists preparing for the war over his control (think impeachment process) bound to come. My money has been on impeachment. Reading now how Trump is bullying the spineless GOP, I'm changing my bet. The populist voters, 96% still support him, assures the GOP will do little to get us out of this mess. Thanks to the Dunning-Kruger incompetent voters.

Here's another article concerning inept congress - "Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell: “Our Democratic colleagues [are] complaining about the removal of an FBI director whom they themselves repeatedly and sharply criticized. That removal [is] being done by a man, Rod Rosenstein, who they repeatedly and effusively praised.” Senator David Perdue of Georgia: “President Trump acted decisively and within his authority, and I stand behind him.” Chuck Grassley of Iowa noted “concern from across the political spectrum and from career law enforcement experts,” Lindsey Graham of South Carolina gamely suggested that “a fresh start will serve the FBI and the nation well.” "

On another subject, Callista Gingrich's appointment as Vatican ambassador is a thumb in the pope's eye for accusing Trump of not being a Christian.
