Two-thirds of Republican candidates in competitive US House and Senate races have broken with Donald Trump on policy or played down ties to him, a Reuters review found, revealing a widespread effort to distance themselves from the president as his unpopularity threatens the party’s hold on Congress.
The review of voting records, public statements and campaign materials found candidates in 41 of 62 competitive congressional races seeking some distance from Trump ahead of the November 3 midterm elections.
The candidates have largely criticized or diverged from Trump on individual issues rather than repudiated his broader agenda. The findings suggest an effort to attract independent voters while avoiding a direct break with their party leader.


I doubt he’ll be convicted and removed after impeachment unless Dems are actually somehow able to get a supermajority. I doubt they’ll get a supermajority.
They’re just going to kill him.
That’s my strong opinion as well. It’s too soon to tell, but neither his controllers nor his inner circle are known for their high moral values and/or being above that. Every single one of those motherfuckers would do the deed without hesitation, given the right circumstances.
But that’s not all. Add the amount of projection they do with the decades of right-wing murder conspiracies they’re still trying to throw at the Clintons and others, and I’d actually put money on this being the chosen means to the end. “Et tu, Brute?” will come back to bite him.
It doesn’t matter how rich you are: when you are no longer useful, you are just trash to be taken out. He was only ever their demagogue. This whole “the cruelty is the point” sociopathic way of being for his high-level controllers isn’t going to suddenly sprout a conscience just because it’s his neck on the block next. When they’re done with him, they’ll take him out themselves.
And when they do take him out, that bobble-headed blonde he keeps to tickle his diaper might shed a genuine tear as she waits for the will to be read, but the rest of them will just start to jockey and then openly battle for the crown they all personally believe is their own by right: the presidency. And just like Trump, at NO point will the benefit of this country nor the American people be considered.
Yeah. You need at least 60 dems in the senate.
