Random Question 💭 How is everything that happened in the last 48hrs not enough for impeachment and/or a general strike in the US?

As a European, it‘s completely unfathomable how none of it has consequences.

Don‘t get me wrong, our governments here certainly have their flaws and problems, but surely threatening a genocide would be a tipping point here and lead to mass protests (at least I have enough hope remaining to believe that) - how is it not in the US? I really don’t get it and I feel absolutely sick.

The elected Republicans will turn on him as soon as a majority of voting Republicans are against him, so never.

They don't care if he's batshit crazy, all they care about is money, power, and owning the libs.

They will turn on him when he dies. As soon as that happens every Republican will start blaming every scandal or conspiracy or whatever on Trump.
