Sadly I don't see any way out of this situation
As I told another person, neither did I.
Still, those politicians (of any kind, not just republicans) do not seem to realize that even with power and perhaps diplomatic immunity, they are not immune to any laws that they may have to office while in power. With how the government and law works, they are not supposed to use it for selfish gains (and for people too much like them) and not use their power in ways as if it did not apply to certain kinds of people they don't like as if they did not matter. Sure, they are doing it any, still. Such politicians will try anything to get power and will do anything to keep it. These politicians may not even care about the people that share the same interests as them as much as they care about themselves. They will make attempts at brainwashing and using propaganda to manipulate people, and with that, they are tearing this country apart. Literally.
With the saying "United we stand, divided we fall", I say we are closer to "divided we fall".
