    Thats what happens when he was enabled by the Senate with their sham of an impeachment hearing. He now feels above the law.

    This is why I'm not kidding when I say Trump has made me more conservative. Any real Conservative should recognize this is yet another example of Trump either ignorantly or willfully going against the Constitution.

    The federal government with absolute power over states. Not to mention disregarding the constitution. That should make any republican's blood boil.... No...?

    yeah, gee, what should we support: Trump’s diaphanous ego, or the lives of American citizens. Tough call.

    there aren’t really any republicans left. Just trump supporters and horrified former members of the GOP. Seriously.

    This is why no one should ever say anything resembling "conservatives like small government" because what Trump-tolerating conservatives actually like is seeing a R label in the White House at all costs. Things like principles, philosophies, integrity, etc play absolutely no part in their motivation.
