Rep. Balint: "My Republican colleagues have accepted for themselves that there's no bottom. They will continue to support this man regardless of how unhinged and how unfit he is for office. It's disgusting."

I agree with your comment about the Senate, we wouldn't be here were it not for the cowardice of the GOP. But the problem with the 25th amendment is that it depends on the goodwill of the cabinet. Fill the cabinet with sycophants and they'll never vote to remove him.

She (and her Democratic colleagues) don't have "Republican colleagues". Referring to congresspersons who behave like members of the Trump admin as colleagues is a horrible misnomer. Ppl in Congress who confirm election deniers and enable rights violators are not your "colleagues".

It isn't only that he's unfit. It's that Iran's rath for this kind of rhetoric will be taken out on our troops. It makes our troops less safe. That should move both political parties and the media to be all over Trump to stop it!

I'm guessing so have Becca Balint & the rest of the Dems accepted that there's no bottom. That's why they'll talk about it on the Sunday morning shows but otherwise sit on their hands.

Disgusting indeed. The sane washing, even in the so called 'liberal' channel MS Now. American voters need the truth even if we "can't handle the truth". America is committing war crimes and Americans are just going along with it.

Incomprehensible that you'd be shocked. He's always the hero in every story and lie he tells. His decision to send other folks to rescue the airman was difficult and brave for him! Wake up.

The crazies are going for total destruction and against any international law. People from the stone age want to take others back to their time. I hope the US will have to pay reparations for this, out of the pockets of Kushner and the whole corrupt & criminal government.

If they worship one man and will dismantle the constitution the very thing they are sworn to uphold, are they still colleagues? In any other job if you break the rules and regulations you get fired, and they don't wait until the next election cycle to do it.

Trump's supporters LOVE his profanity way more than they did his post on saving our airman from Iran. 25k likes vs 17k. Trump could kill a child with bare hands and Republicans would defend him.

Racists who get off when they think they are owing their enemies, often Democrats are the main enemies, here it is Muslims.

Don't bother trying to defend Republicans by blaming bots. They love profane and racist Trump with all their hearts.

The Trump Cult is not based on reason, evidence, truth or reality— it’s based on identity. They fear losing belief in Trump like they fear death. 🤷🏻‍♂️🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩

Hope they're decimated in '26 (& '28). However, I can't help but wonder whether the billionaires consolidating power under this joke of an "administration" now feel comfortable with their upcoming plans to continue to hold power (i.e., "the fix is in" re: upcoming elections.

It's going to be all about turnout & if Judges will protect our rights Thiel & Musk alone are spending billions-again--& Bezos & Zuckerberg will kiss fascist asses for more $$$$ Every vote at every level matters & to date Dems have flipped 30 seats & GOP-zero But the fight is here & now

Every time I hear a Deomcratic representative or senator refer to their Republican counterparts as "fellow" or "colleagues", outside of required parliamentary courtesy rules in actual session, I cringe. These GOPs are fascists or fascist enablers and do not deserve to be referenced collegially

They don’t wanna lose their cushy jobs. They’ll just let America fall further and further and us become more and more unsafe. They don’t care about the American people. They only care about their wonderful jobs and they don’t want to lose them. They are disgusting humans and terrible Americans.

It’s true, between the pedophilia and the open corruption there is nothing they won’t forgive or condone, all in service of giving rich people more money and perpetuating minority rule

Not sure why but every time I hear anything from him, I’m reminded of that biker gang in Texas that became famous for welding their enemies inside 55 gallon oil drums before setting them adrift in the Gulf of Mexico and using them for rifle practice. 🇺🇸

I want the DNC platform for the midterms to include the complete stoppage of referring to GOP congress members as colleagues. They are "the opposition". Nothing collegial going on these days.

Which is code for "what are we waiting for" but they keep waiting. Trumps popular support will never fall below 30% or so. Never. Because that's how many horrible people there are. Don't worry, they're fearful and lazy they won't fight back. So, get on with it, or live with it forever.

About that "Popular Support" who appear to endorse his "Child Sex abuse and Rape, now that it's clearly been his Thing all along. Raises questions about the diversity of their "Family genetics" and any Moral Compass...

Schumer and Jeffries need to hold a press conference tomorrow. Tell Americans Trump is threatening nuclear war on Iran and so they are going to begin impeachment proceedings.

They're just fine with Trump destroying the world. They're making money hand over fist. This is what they want. Suck the country dry. Then what? They haven't given it any thought.

Trump isn’t the worst US president ever. That’s too small. Trump is the worst person ever. He’s killed more people than any serial killer, he’s a rapist, a felon, a liar, a 6x bankrupt loser, stupid and mean. #TrumpIsWorstPersonEver #TrumpEaster

With that being said. Please do not fall for the "we need to try to meet Republican voters in the middle" anymore. That ship has sailed. Those voters are gonzo. They would rather burn the entire world down before they wake up. To them this life is just a game until they die and go to "heaven".
