Where Are Our Elected Republicans?!

Yes, where are our (your) Republican members of Congress? President Trump spoke to the American people last night, laid out the case for securing our border, building the wall. Pelosi and Schumer stepped up and thoroughly embarrassed themselves. Republicans in Congress, crickets. Cockroaches, maybe? They have scurried off to their safe spaces and silently hide.

What have you heard or read from your favorite Republican? If anything. I figure silence means they are Never Trumpers, even if in the closet. Afraid to speak up, either to criticize Trump or to support him. President Trump stands tall while they hide. Am I wrong? Please share what you hear and read from your favorite Republicans.

So many depend on name recognition and fundraising and therefore seek to avoid any controversy.

They are the same place most conservatives in the U.S. are.

Hanging back and letting Trump do all the work.

The GOP is club, and we ain’t in it.

Lindsay Graham came right out on Hannity and said he was all in behind the president. He is also the new Chairman of the Senate Judiciary Committee

Under their desks like the last 50 years.

He’s in the White House.

Everywhere else there are elected people calling themselves Republicans...

Yeah, sure. All we have to do to keep our way of life is to vote and blog. Participation isn’t necessary.

Most of the elected GOP are still Bush League Republicans still hell bent on completing the Bush Plan For North Mexico (aka USA).

Can’t get to the New World Order with US in the way.

You are completely correct. Though your question assumes there are Republicans in elected office. I submit there are very few of those. Most are not just RINOs, but Dems who wear RINO clothes.

Of course, they believe the national socialist takeover is on the way, maybe already here, or certainly by the next election. If they speak in favor of Trump now, they think they will be the first sent off to the camps. Remember, the Deep State speaks directly to them with warnings we never hear. :-)

Survival? More like suicide. If the wanted to survive they’d be 100% Trump!

It was great to see Rubio on Fox before the speech, completely supporting Trump!

I hear-tell that Mitchy made a go of it last night on a panel or some such. FoxBN, maybe.

If the GOP doesn't start supporting what Trump's trying to do, they've lost me. No big deal, but I think there are tens of thousands of us who are really getting PO'ed at the GOP and that is a big deal.

Our s(elected) what? Time to fire up and start contacting mantoes, rosen and Amodei. The other NV reps don’t care much about us in any case. Not that our two senators do.
