tRump May As Well Come Out and Admit He Personally Colluded With Putin to Become POTUS

Why? Because nothing will happen to him.

And why will nothing happen to him? Because McConnell, Ryan, Priebus and the entire GOP operation WERE IN ON IT.

These are desperate men who thought their political careers were going down the toilet with an anticipated Hillary win. That desperation - coupled with their over sized sense of entitlement - led them to make a deal with the devil, to roll the dice and hope for the best. And they won, bigly!

We're now hearing that the Russian interference extended to state and local elections as well. Nothing to see here?

So, tRump may as well cop to everything, thumb his nose at the world and dare the Rs who owe their control of Congress to tRump and his collusion with the Russians to come after him. He will simply bring them all down with him. That will be the threat, and they will bow and scrape.

It's the cleanest, easiest way for the Rs to put it behind them. They don't give a shit about anyone but themselves, and they will act accordingly. Protests in the street and phone calls will mean nothing.

And thus will end the American experiment in representative democracy.

Is just the part about whom is being represented that's the problem.
