They don't care at what cost. From now on that party is the party of Putin. They will never fight Putin or his puppet.

especially when voters go for the lies. And the media not doing it's job.
The GOP/Trump and their voters are on some weird kool-aid as we speak.
It's hard to fight crazy. Look at Pres. Obama all these years.
Dems need to take time regroup/recharge/reboot, b/c we are dealing with crazy.
