They can have their symbolic votes. But if they vote for the REAL THING, they’re putting their seats at risk, as crossing Trump on one of his key issues, particularly with him at 90% Republican support, is a (figurative) death sentence for just about any Republican in Congress. Same goes for Impeachment, and the Republicans in Congress, as well as the Democrats there, all know it - Trump is untouchable.

The do-nothing Congress resents a President that actually does something.

They’re distancing themselves from MAGA.
Vote them all out.

Congress played its "role"...56 years ago...by giving the President the power to impose tariffs. And Congress can take that power away. With an 88% majority, Congress can take that power away even if the President objects. So if they're serious, let them act seriously.
