Trump Could Do Anything & Congress Won't Impeach

What troubles me the most about everything that President Donald Trump has done since being elected is not the multitude of racist statements he has made; the countless number of lies he has told; the allegations of him colluding with Russians, obstruction of justice or calling people nasty and shameful names unbefitting the presidency; starting a trade war; or his abuse of power (taking away the security clearance of people whom he politically opposes).

No, what troubles me the most in all that has transpired is that the 115th Congress of the United States would stand idly by and allow Trump to burn down the White House and degrade everything this country stands for in order to protect their own self-interest.
"This is, without a doubt, one of the saddest times in American history. Other countries gasp in amazement and utter disbelief every time Donald Trump opens his mouth."
The Republican Party has aided and abetted Trump in dividing this country. They have defended and supported his racist policies and tweets and watched Trump condone and incite hate and violence. Prior to the election, Trump admitted to intentionally engaging in sexual misconduct; despite this, Americans still elected Trump president. I am convinced there is nothing the president can do that would cause him to be impeached.

Millions of Americans have no problem with anything the president has said or done. The sad truth is, although Trump's approval rating is at the lowest for any modern American president, there are people all over the country who still fully support him. His supporters will soon learn that when you get behind crazy, you're subject to go crazy.
