so much of the US government runs on the honor system. things like putting SCOTUS nominees to a vote, or removing a corrupt president. no laws here, just an agreement to do the right thing. and this is what happens when you let dishonorable people run an honor system government

The founders anticipated a corrupt president like Trump.
They just didn't anticipate a compromised Senate at the same time.

Trump obviously tried to extort a foreign power for political gain.
But just as obvious is that he's currently extorting his own party.
That may save Trump, but it could easily backfire for Republicans in 2020 and beyond. #RIPGOP

Personally, that's been the real eye-opener from this trumptastrophe. What I thought was a "system of laws" if just a pretty kimono covering an emaciated body of quaint "norms and customs". We were sitting ducks all along.

Honestly it’s time for the people to act. We need to stage a #MassProtest around the country! I’m not sure how to spread the word, but twitter do your thing 👀

What are we the insignificant supposed to do now? No matter which way we go, the little people are going to suffer. What do we do now? Voting is rigged. We're done.

Don’t buy into the whole ‘its not worth it to vote’. That’s what they’re trying to get you to do. Some elections are lost by 2 votes. Vote even if you think your district will never turn. After watching this corruption, there’s a #BlueWave2020 coming like you can’t even imagine.
