It was bad enough when Trump invited the Russians to hack computers during the election. And it seemed Rudy Giuliani always knew what was coming next, a day or two before Russia released something new. And Donald Trump not only can't criticize Vladimir Putin, but seems to be very fond of strong arm thugs all over the world.
But by far, the worst thing he did was walk a group of laughing and mocking high ranking Russian officials into the Oval office, evict the US Press and invite in Putin's propaganda arm of his government, the Russian press. To get any pictures of the meeting, our press had to ask the Russian press to share.
And Comey used to ask for weekly updates and so much information was pouring in, he went to daily and when he asked for more resources, he was fired. Worse, Trump said why he was firing Comey. And the Republicans not only did nothing, they supported Trump. One wonders if this investigation will die because Comey got too close.
And look at what Republicans are trying to do. Throw many millions of American off healthcare. Another major transfer of wealth nearly as big as the failed Bush Tax cuts. Turn the country into a police state with the pretext of "law and order". Build a wall to keep in US citizens. Picture ID for everyone so the government can keep track of you. Voter suppression. Fewer polling places so people will give up voting. Especially the poor. All this to sew discontent and weaken the country. You don't see Republicans talk about democratic values anymore. There's a reason for that. They want American to get used to an authoritarian type government.
Will America give up with a whimper? One wonders.
