Went to a town hall forum with my Congresswoman on Saturday, very red Midwest small town. To her credit, she regularly takes the time to do these and face the people. I got to pose a question, something like this: "Several months ago Trump suggested suspending the Constitution to reinstall him as President. Can you comment on how this reflects on his fitness as a GOP candidate?"
Got some growls from the faithful, and a generic "everyone will have to make up their own minds and I believe there will be many good candidates" talking point from my rep. I persisted a bit with a follow-up "how is it consistent with your oath of office to defend and support the Constitution that you won't comment on this attack on our Constitution by an ex-President"?
Struck a nerve - she yelled back that she honors her oath of office every day. Still had nothing to say about the leader of her party shitting on that same oath. All fear, no shame.
Maybe you should trademark that. It just might catch on in some circles. If it doesn't, it should, because that's pretty much it in a nutshell for a majority of these schmoes.
