The sick and diseased republican party (#4393)

     If we had any doubt about the republican party and it's core we are now fully aware that the core of the republican party is rotten through and through. After watching that video that the House managers provided as evidence and then the incomprehensible defense trump's lawyers floundered to rebut we still saw 44 senators deny the existence of reality by voting to end the trial without a conviction. Nothing ever again will be needed to show the true depth of the republican depravity. The hollowness of their defense is proof that only republican leaders can assail our democracy with murder and still be found innocent.
     The republican leadership in the senate is an absolutely filthy grouping of self centered privileged assholes. The membership of the republican senate is chock full of haters, deniers, and cowards. This is all coming to the front and center stage so that anyone one who will look, can be otherwise convinced. Somehow these republicans have convinced themselves that protecting trump from incitement to riot and overthrow our election with murder is reasonable and not worth trying in an impeachment setting. That not all 100 senators are ready to convict is unbelievable. Yet for that to be, the republican party would need to unglue itself from the hip of trump and that is not how things look at the moment.
     So either way the verdict goes, which most all of us citizenry would say should be guilty, the votes in this trial are going to be recorded. Those republican senators who vote to acquit will wear that badge of shame wherever they go for the rest of their lives. I know that their posterity is unimportant to them which is why they can be as ridiculous and without shame as easily as walk. But to we voters the traitorous and cowardly acts republican senators continue to exhibit will be harshly remembered when they come up for their elections. The only real punishment we can leverage, voting them out of office with all our effort, is our challenge, even those who are in deep red states.
