To coin an old expression, Republicans don’t know whether to sh*t or go blind.

• They want to be the good guys.
• They want the high moral ground.
• They want to appear fair and balanced
• They want to appear somewhat conservative.

Unfortunately, the people trying to turn the U.S. into a socialist state are street fighters, with no morals, and fairness is an anathema to them. Socialist have to win.

Republicans would have never pulled down the Berlin wall as President Reagan did. Never ushered in the end of the USSR like Reagan did. They don’t have the stomach for it. They will take the victory as long as they don’t have to get their hands dirty.

Along comes non-politician Donald Trump who turns their world upside down. He’s of the same mold as Reagan. A brawler, foul mouthed, no fair and balanced. He wins, but he’s too much for the establishment Republicans to take. He needs to go and not come back. Hence the support for this round of impeachment. Being in Congress is not such a bad life as the losing party. They can live with that. That’s why Socialist win.

My hats off to the fine bunch of Conservatives in Congress who are left to pick up the pieces and go for a win the the future. Emulate Reagan and Trump, not Romney and McCain.
