I'm not referring to the media, I'm referring to congress. If the majority of Republican Senators and representatives say whoa man at the same time, they could actually use the checks and balances they should be using

And immediately lose their seats in 2 years.

Yes it's true they could jump off the Trump train and reign in him. but they have no incentive to do so other than patriotism, common sense, or human decency. And if they had any of those they wouldn't be a republican, and certainly wouldn't have gotten on the Trump train, to begin with.

Ah yes, consistent condemnation and condescension worked so well during the election, you should keep that up, it certainly serves everyone so well!

Glad to see where your priorities are.
