Loyalty first to Trump, even if he wants to become an autocrat and put himself above the law. That’s the Trump GOP !

Why do they have to be reminded that they are Americans first and this man has been dismantling what they have been enjoying

No peace for a rigged election as the Democrats say BURN IT ALL DOWN

Idiots who have no place in the legislature.

What. The. Hell.

The “Who’s Who” of idiots.
