They're all compromised. All of the Republican politicians are in deep with whatever Trump is in.

24. I don't believe they are all on the dole. I do believe the vast majority are complicit though, and

are protecting the party from Trump (I'm sure Trump has threatened to expose all secrets) and from obliteration due to criminal behavior.

I think they are silent co-conspirators and are going along with a historically horrific toddler in the white house because otherwise the party gets exposed for the hollow, immoral, criminal organization it is. The party may be on the verge of disappearing if the public discovers the truth and I imagine gop officials and some democrats (and maybe institutionalists like Mueller) think that could be a very bad thing.

This may be gamed out/negotiated so that the whole US political infrastructure, public perception, reputation around the world, etc doesn't just blow up. If Seth Abramson is correct -- that the world's oligarchs from several countries conspired to place a puppet in the white house, manipulate an election, and corrupt democracy using media and vast amounts of money -- then we are in uncharted territory. Possible crisis, chaos, vulnerability.

If there's such a thing as a bank that's too big to fail...then this is the political equivalent. As corrupt as the gop and its players are (and as hypocritical, immoral, unjust, arrogant, short-sighted) it may be that TPTB consider the GOP and the RNC too big to fail and will negotiate a soft landing?
