Report: Anti-Trump GOP House Members ‘Happy to Take Out President’ Over Mueller, Looming Loss of Congress

Never-Trump leader Erick Erickson reported Tuesday night via Instagram and Twitter an alleged conversation he had with an unnamed Republican Congressman over his and many of his fellow GOP Congressmen’s hatred of President Donald Trump and their willingness to “take out the President” through impeachment if he fires Special Counsel Robert Mueller.

This would be their punishment for what they fear to be the loss of their Congressional majorities in the House and Senate come the November elections.

Erickson said the Congressman is afraid to speak out publicly because he would be primaried and voted out by the Trump supporters in his district.

Yes it is and we have to take over one of them. The 3rd party route will only give you more of what you do not want.

I don’t believe I’ve seen Dent on Fox defending the President. Also Safeway isn’t in Pa.

What I find revolting in all of this is that men and women who took the same oath as I did (I’ve actually taken two oaths, one when I enlisted in 1976, the other in 2004, when I started working for the Civil Service) to protect and defend the Constitution against ALL enemies foreign and DOMESTIC.

We are seeing that the career politicians, D & R, care nothing for the citizens of this country. They have a globalist agenda and they want to keep to it.....why? What were they promised if they “toe’d the line”

It is time to vote them all out, and if not all, hopefully a majority of the traitors.

The evidence that has been exposed by this sham of a investigation has shown D collusion with Russia to throw the election to Hillary, yet, no arrests, and there won’t be either. So stop with the smoke and mirrors and be honest for once. Tell the truth that you don’t care what the socialists have done, to include murder, it is all about making America a third world country as quick as you can to install a “socialist utopia” world wide.

Just a little frustrated with all these lies.

When the Civil War II deck of cards is printed, will Rinos be the 'red' cards or the 'black'?

I’ll tell you one thing whether this is true or not. The level of corruption in this country is much deeper than most of us thought. It will require a 1788 French Revolution type of effort to begin to fix it.

IF true (and there is every reason that there are members of Congress who are of such a mind; then I remind them that The Constitution (Article VI, clause 3) specifies:

“The Senators and Representatives before mentioned, and the members of the several state legislatures, and all executive and judicial officers, both of the United States and of the several states, shall be bound by oath or affirmation, to support this Constitution; but no religious test shall ever be required as a qualification to any office or public trust under the United States.”

Further, at the start of each new U.S. Congress the entire House of Representatives and one-third of the Senate – must recite an oath:

“I, (name), do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same; that I take this obligation freely, without any mental reservation or purpose of evasion; and that I will well and faithfully discharge the duties of the office on which I am about to enter. So help me God.”

Hey GOP, does “Omnibus Spending Bill” ring a bell? It might in November.

The Left isn’t going to be defeated via electing leftist Republicans, sorry to tell you.

This will be ended otherwise, or they will prevail.

Seriously—do you think we’re at a place where things can be salvaged?

I’m afraid we’re so polarized, it is not doable.

"Your point is well taken, but the republic is being held hostage by a corrupt two party system that is strangling the life out of it."

Agreed. Looks like we are going to have to work overtime during these primaries to make sure more of those looser's aren't our only option to stopping the progressive one world socialists.

Chris is our resident Democrat PR bot. He doesn’t think, he just posts what his DNC masters tell him to post.

Conservative apathy in 2008 was a big reason we wound up with the single biggest anti-American (usurper) President.

I don't believe any clear thinking person can say that Barry Soetoro was better for our country than even the likes of McCain (or Romney).

And, it's only gotten worse since then. The 2018 mid-terms and 2020 presidential elections are going to be monumentally critical to our republic..."if we can keep it!"

Right things are going to be so much better when we follow your DNC talking points and elect Democrats

Did you idiots not learn nothing from 2006? Your turned the Congress over to the Dems to “teach the GOP lesson”. When that did work you sat on your asses and let Obama win in 2008.

The result is you set of clueless whiners helped make the monster that is Obamacare law of the land.

Action have consequences. Instead of sitting on your ass whining, get in the game and help move the agenda forward.

A nation this corrupt cannot remain standing for long. Eventually, the only thing left will be to devour each other.

FAKENEWS Erickson

Show us the audio clip of the Congressman, otherwise you cannot quote that much detail from memory.
And no Congressman will go on audio record, as that is a suicide career.

But NeverTrump Reps be gone!
