Backing out

The federal legislatures that said things like "I cannot now in good conscience" object electoral vote after people stormed the Capital Building are traitors to themselves . Turning your back on what you accepted as your duty because a very minute number of those you represent do something you don't like is not leadership it is cowardness.

If they believed there was good cause to object then they should have objected. Those that changed their position because of the crowds actions are cowards and lack conviction.

The right or wrong of their belief doesn't matter, the fact that they stated those beliefs and then changed position solely based on the action of the protestors shows they do not have the courage to be considered "leaders" of this country.

    This whole election was about like getting a speeding ticket.. knowing you were not speeding and not having a chance to get off in front of the Judge.

    Most of these people just dont get it, to include many in reps in GOP.

    People are fed up with partisan corrupt government: Especially the DOJ. Instead of enforcing laws, the DOJ acts as a protection racket for corrupt politicians and their criminal activity. Instead of enforcing laws, they discredit and later annihilate political opponents and anyone who attempts to expose their corruption.

    Corruption goes beyond the federal government to include many states and local governments. Corruption in state and local government is so great, it now determines the outcome of elections.

    On top of all the corruption in government are willing accomplices in the media to include social media giants such as Google, Facebook and Twitter. Combined social and main stream media pose a far greater threat than crooked politicians. Their existence alone perpetuates corruption in government by their campaign of lies, propaganda, and not reporting facts.
