I’ve Been saying the Trump’s ain’t doing ‘their’ party any favors….
It’s almost like they hate Republicans that do not cede the party to them….
Problem is Donald Trump will NOT be President in two weeks and the President and Congress will be led by Democrats…
In case there was any doubt that President Donald Trump and his allies see Wednesday’s votes in Congress as a pure loyalty test, Eric Trump cleared that up with a single tweet Tuesday night.
“I will personally work to defeat every single Republican Senator / Congressman who doesn’t stand up against this fraud – they will be primaried in their next election and they will lose,” tweeted the son of the 45th president of the United States.
Eric Trump’s tweet is in keeping with what has been coming out of his father’s political account for weeks now: Vote to object to the Electoral College results on Wednesday (with no proof of any wrongdoing!) — or else.
“The ‘Surrender Caucus’ within the Republican Party will go down in infamy as weak and ineffective ‘guardians’ of our Nation, who were willing to accept the certification of fraudulent presidential numbers!” President Trump tweeted earlier this week.
Don’t gloss over what is happening here. The President of the United States — and his son! — are openly threatening sitting Republican members of Congress with political opposition. And the threat revolves around a totally and completely debunked notion: That the Electoral College votes, which have already been certified in all 50 states, are somehow tainted or wrong.
The choice, then, before Republican senators and House members on Wednesday is simple: Do you vote with the facts (and the Constitution!) or with a President who won’t be president in two-ish weeks? Or, put another way: Will you vote on principle or out of fear?….

Republican Party at the beginning of 2015:
* 54 Senators – second highest total since FDR
* 249 House members – highest total since 1928
* 31 Republican governors
* the largest number of state legislative seats since FDR
Then, Donald Trump came down an escalator.
