Full Hirono: Republicans Need To ‘Step Out Of The Shadows And Do Their Job’ | MTP Daily | MSNBC

  1. Congress is going to do the same thing it has done up to today… absolutely nothing. It will probably demand a couple of things and launch another investigation but that will be all. They are going to wait for the voters to do the job we sent them to do. It is up to you and me to vote Trump out of office.

    1. What makes you think there will even be an election? Or that it won’t be even more rigged than the last one? Or that even if there is one and 45* loses, he will leave instead of staging a coup with much of the GOP and private security forces (and even some US or foreign military). Sure this is all a danger if he is impeached and ordered to also be removed from office, but it’s less of one since the longer the dems don’t uphold the rule of law, the weaker that law gets. You can’t vote out dictators, you can only remove them by law and/or mass civilian protest.

  2. There is no republican party anymore. Only the Trump party. The GOP is in a coma and it won’t be resurrected unless it flushes out the poison that is Trump.

  3. Oh no ,,, not a strongly worded letter ! I’m sure THAT will change things , never .
    Only being custom fitted for handcuffs will do .

  4. I don’t think this has anything to do with the Ukraine, I think it is something much worse and sketchy is throwing a smoke screen so when the truth does come out he can claim no wrongdoing and so don’t worry about the horrible truth that was just revealed.

  5. Trump is too stupid to tell the truth! He is a liar and a criminal. This guy is mentally disintegrating on tv every day. It’s time to stop this disgusting pussygrabber and lock him up!

  6. I have never been in the shadows. I have been GOP 30+ years.
    I knew what the trump was, 20 minutes into that first GOP primary debate.
    I told everyone, no one will listen. I am surrounded by ‘trumpanzies.’
    Any, not against the trump, instinctually… are enemy. No difrence than the Germans who allowed hister to take power.

      According to a 1990 Vanity Fair interview, Ivana Trump once told her lawyer Michael Kennedy that her husband, real-estate mogul Donald Trump, now a leading Republican presidential candidate, kept a book of Hitler’s speeches near his bed.

      “Last April, perhaps in a surge of Czech nationalism, Ivana Trump told her lawyer Michael Kennedy that from time to time her husband reads a book of Hitler’s collected speeches, My New Order, which he keeps in a cabinet by his bed … Hitler’s speeches, from his earliest days up through the Phony War of 1939, reveal his extraordinary ability as a master propagandist,” Marie Brenner wrote.

      Hitler was one of history’s most prolific orators, building a genocidal Nazi regime with speeches that bewitched audiences.

    2. wel1968 None whatsoever. Am old enough to remember. No one listens to me either. If Trump is not out soon, the election will be a farce. After that there will be no more elections. Dictators do away with them, and people. I remember too well the aftermath of the Nazis in power.

    3. @Glenys Thomson it will soon be time, to stand, and do more than push air through our mouths
      even after the trump is gone, the trumpanzies will remain
      they are forever enemy
      never forget who they are… it may be as easy as to allow them to starve… but i think they are going to try and fight

      survival is all that matters

  7. It’s time for we the people’s start holding The Republican Congress accountable for their actions not standing up for the country not standing up for the constitution not standing up for the rule of law they’re only standing up for their power and their greed

  8. Rep. Hirono is 💯correct.
    Historians will have *no accolades* for *ALL* those who aided #45, and who ‘chose party over country’. In fact, those so ‘ignobly noted’ will have *only themselves* to blame for their unflattering descriptives.
    That *won’t* help their future generations, however, who will bear *that* shame in their lineage. 😒

    1. How did he rig the 2020 election. You Democrats nominated a horrible candidate with tons of baggage an outright criminal. And you complain about Trump. You’re nothing but a political hack and a hypocrite

    1. What do you want Republicans to do? Whine like the Democrats & do nothing? What good has that done? Aren’t you tired of their whinings & no actions? Because I am.

    1. For what the leaker wasn’t even party to the information. And where’s the outcries about Joe Biden. Man y’all are a bunch of Hippocrates

    2. ‘We *already* healed ourselves’, Ernie.
      The problem, however, *is* …
      Those that work for #45 all too frequently find *themselves* infected with *his ‘communicable corruption’* …much like an ‘ethical STD’.
      ‘Humiliation’, ‘resignation’ (and frequently ‘incarceration’) are the *inevitable result* of comingling with #45. 🤨

  9. It’s nice that the questioner presses the Democratic Senator Hirono, let’s see her press a Republican as hard! With as pointed questions!

  10. Most of the Republicans will not come out of the shadows until the Democrats force this to impeachment. Republicans need that screen.

  11. I’ve been waiting to hear from Schumer. Why doesn’t the press feature him more? He’s an influential, truth-telling statesman.
