With John Cornyn’s nope tweet Friday, it finally dawned on me why so many of the GOP Congress critters are putting party over country. They too are compromised.
We all began thinking Nunes inexplicable behavior pointed this way too.
It would explain much of the maddening refusal for the GOP Congress critters to put Trump in his place and side with FBI / CIA findings and realize how dangerously close we are to having a foreign enemy agent and his minions running the country. Especially with how he has treated them. These guys and gals, for the most part, loathed Trump.
Looking back now, in the months after the election, I believe they became aware their entire body was riddled with compromised and colluding actors and almost all of them had taken dirty money.
It is not surprising since the same collusion has taken place for many of the far right propagandists on TV and internet and AM radio, of that we know. The Russians have been targeting many of these right winger crazies for over a decade. It was no coincidence 7-8 years ago the GOP began worshiping Putin, long before Trump became a viable candidate. They worshipped his strength and held him up as a president we should have instead of the Black Muslim born in Kenya. That worship was by design and paid for...and paved the way to Trump
So right now, I think there are a ton of GOP folks who will be tied in varying forms of colluding with Russia, from flat out bribery or compromised positions to accepting lots of campaign financing and campaign data mining from Russian actors. Many of this later group may have not even realized who they were in bed with until too late. After all, The Tea Party idiots that began walking the DC halls of power in 2010 were mostly useful idiots, cut from Carter Page’s cloth.
The GOP is quietly terrified and it goes way beyond losing Trump. This will be much, much bigger I predict.
Which is is why you may see things get really weird soon. Scary times.
