Trump rules the Republicans with threats and promises.

Anytime there is a little dissension in the Party, he calls them together for a black-tie dinner or some such function to advise them to stay the course and to support him at all costs. If they don't they will not be in office much longer.

They are a spineless bunch. I cannot believe that all Republicans are like those in Washington? They are slimy creatures.

If the people cannot get rid of them, it will be a sad day for America.

Trump and his billionaire friends cannot do the crap they are doing to our country if not for Speaker Mike Johnson and the Republicans in the House. The Republican Senate is barely any better, perhaps even worse?

The suffering of the people has not yet begun.

It is not going to be pretty.
