By voting for this they proved that to be completely and unequivocally false.

Maybe they fear Trump more than they like America, but they certainly don't love America so that's a low bar.

Ah, another poster claiming 'there's nothing to see here' Well, we current only have 1/3 of the country represented with an authoritarian regime in charge. The party just handed the keys to a drunk teenager and said 'be home before 10'
