Holy , I never thought I would answer that question "yes".
Leave it to Republicans to find someone to make Palin, "Potatoe", and Shrub look smart.
he even makes Bachmann (shivers) look sane, and that says something.
Senate Republicans spent their last week before a four-week August recess on a series of moves with one main goal: Reining in Donald Trump.
The GOP delivered an unstated declaration of independence from their own Republican president by passing a Russia sanctions bill he resisted, rebuffing his demands they try again on health care after the spectacular implosion of Obamacare repeal, even taking steps to head off any attempt by Trump to fire the special counsel investigating him, Robert Mueller.

Only took 6 months for his party to turn on him. Without the RNC chair coordinating and playing whip this trend will worsen.
This guy makes Bush the Lesser look downright competent. Good job GOPo s.

The s.
Living proof they're no happier than their counterparts across the aisle over Trump's victory. He spoiled the plan, the sequence.
But, Trump won't (kill) easy and if he can get enough to come in close he can take these pigs with him.
- "Make good fight."
- "Mr. Miyagi" - "The Karate Kid"
Good. One of the many outcomes I was hoping for. Now if he can only accelerate the carnage, maybe the GOP will split.
Thanks to the oligarchy's corrupting $Bs, the GOP s ain't gonna split.
A Republican ‘Shadow Campaign’ to Potentially Replace Trump in 2020 Is Underway, NYT Reports
But in interviews with more than 75 Republicans at every level of the party, elected officials, donors and strategists expressed widespread uncertainty about whether Mr. Trump would be on the ballot in 2020 and little doubt that others in the party are engaged in barely veiled contingency planning.
“They see weakness in this president,” said Senator John McCain, Republican of Arizona.
“Look, it’s not a nice business we’re in.”
John Kasich is reportedly ready to run again, even if the President does, though the Times report notes that “the shadow candidates and their operatives have signaled that they are preparing only in case Mr. Trump is not available in 2020.”
Vice President Mike Pence, despite being vocally supportive of Trump, set up the Great America Committee back in May and, as the Timesreports, is quietly prepping himself:
Mr. Pence’s aides, however, have been less restrained in private, according to two people briefed on the conversations.
In a June meeting with Al Hubbard, an Indiana Republican who was a top economic official in Mr. Bush’s White House, an aide to the vice president, Marty Obst, said that
they wanted to be prepared to run in case there was an opening in 2020 and that Mr. Pence would need Mr. Hubbard’s help, according to a Republican briefed on the meeting.

Lots of Repugs, conservatives "squaring off" against Trash and Repugs.
The GOP has become the party of the grotesque
Southern Gothic ... illuminates, however, not a regional peculiarity but a national perversity, that of the Republican Party.
“Anything that comes out of the South,” said writer Flannery O’Connor, a sometime exemplar of Southern Gothic, “is going to be called grotesque by the Northern reader, unless it is grotesque, in which case it is going to be called realistic.”
A Michigan poll shows rocker- -rapper Kid Rock a strong potential Republican Senate candidate against in bent Debbie Stabenow. Rock says Democrats are “shattin’ in their pantaloons” because if he runs it will be “game on mthrfkers.”
Is this Northern Gothic? No, it is
Republican Gothic, the grotesque becoming normal in a national party whose dishonest and, one hopes, futile assault on Brooks is shredding the remnants of its dignity.

So Trash has "lost" arch-conservatives George Will, Jennifer Rubin, and lots of others.

GOP senator: I wish Republicans had stood up to birtherism
“Well, I do think that we've seen more people ready to stand up. And I wish that we, as a party, would have stood up, for example, when the birtherism thing was going along. A lot of people did stand up but not enough,” Flake told Todd.Flake said the birther movement, a conspiracy theory that claimed former President Barack Obama was not born in the United States, “was particularly ugly.”
President Trump had promoted the theory for years, before rejecting it during the 2016 presidential campaign.
"President Barack Obama was born in the United States," Trump said at the end of a campaign event last September. "Period."

Repugs "stand up"?They are moral quadriplegics
‘Serious issues and problems’: Federal employees step up their resistance to Trump administration
Employees in the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), the Drug Enforcement Agency (DEA) and other federal departments are becoming increasingly outspoken and defiant about President Donald Trump and the steps he has taken to neuter or misdirect their agencies
The Hill reported on Saturday that current and former staffers of the EPA have been vocal in recent weeks that Trump’s changes are dismantling their agency and pose the threat to environmental catastrophe for the U.S. and the world.
This week, Elizabeth “Betsy” Southerland handed in her resignation as director of science and technology in the federal Office of Water and did it with a scorching open letter directed at Trump and his appointee to direct the EPA Scott Pruitt.
Jeff Ruch — executive director of the Public Employees for Environmental Responsibility (PEER) — told The Hill it’s “kind of obvious” why public employees would be in open revolt against a president who appears bent on dismantling their agencies.
The Trump administration has dragged its feet on hiring federal officials to staff the top ranks of multiple critical federal agencies such as the
State Department,
the Department of Defense,
the EPA and
security agencies like the NSA.
Administration critics have echoed the alarms sounded from within these agencies — pointing out that the U.S. is critically vulnerable to any actual crisis while its leadership is deeply engaged in misinformation, political infighting and resisting investigation for its ties to a hostile foreign power.
The Trump administration has responded to whistleblowers and intra-agency conflicts by threatening to jail “leakers” who expose the White House’s failures and fabrications.
“I think career staff don’t typically speak out publicly unless they feel like there are serious issues and problems going on within the agency,”
“It takes a lot of guts for someone to make the decision to end their government service and to put themselves out there for public scrutiny and comment,” she said. “You wouldn’t see that if they didn’t feel like there was a considerable threat to the agency and its missions.”
