Dear GOP: So, now it is OK to work with an adversarial foreign power to win the White House?

Dear GOP: So, now it is OK to work with an adversarial foreign power to win the White House?

You took power. You took control of the House, the Senate, and the White House. And in this process you sold your soul to the Devil.

There is no way any Patriotic American can stand before a camera and say this latest revelation about Donald Trump, his family, and his campaign working with the Russian Government to get elected is OK.

The only way to redeem your soul, to redeem your honor, is to move quickly, in a bipartisan manner, to remove this cancer from your party, and from the White House without delay.

Following this to its logical conclusion, the Republicans have taken our country to a place where much of the World will influence our government on election day and after. Wait until China, India, Germany and others choose sides. I'm surprised that Republicans can't see this for what it is.

My hope, though, is not convictions on obstruction and collusion charges. If Trump has been money-laundering for the Russians, I hope that is the charge that Mueller brings. Its the bigger crime, and will really clean up our political system.

Their one strategy is to galvanize people by targeting a common enemy. Then you realize just how hokey that is when someone like Trump gets into office. Here he is palling is up with a hostile foreign government and the Republicans have turned into bobble-heads.

so why not outsource our elections too? I'm sure we can trust the Russians to do it more efficiently. After all, Putin has been in charge longer than several of our presidents so he has more experience.
