The Congressional Republicans need to step up as a body and demand the end of the Trump Era.

We know there are crackpot MAGA racist liars just like him among the Republican cohort, but I firmly believe that there are many who silently squirm and pray for his defeat. Of course they're cowards, for various reasons: skeletons in the closet, simple fear of threats and follow-ups, being kicked out of the club and ostracized and shunned, but there is safety in numbers. There is honor in admitting a mistake and atoning. There is power in putting country before self and a cult leader.

You will never forgive yourself for not doing what you could when you had the chance.

I disagree.

If they dump him now, we're stuck with Vance and whoever Peter Theil picks to be his VP.

Congressional Republicans have gone this long without showing backbone -- they can wait until after the election.

I hear you and I should have added: not dump him just stand against him.

I hope he quits campaigning and flies to Venezuela, and says he will only come back if he wins. It would be acknowledgement that he thinks he will likely lose. If he does not win he will not stay in America.
