Even the GOP is out of patience with Trump's failure to address Putin

https://www.yahoo.com/news/ve-had-enough-president-trump-030700501.html

Republican Senator Chuck Grassley is calling on President Donald Trump to sanction Russia after the Kremlin launched a massive drone and missile attack against Ukraine over the weekend.

A fed-up Grassley demanded on his X account Monday that Trump to take punitive action against Russian President Vladimir Putin for his continued aggression in Ukraine.


"I’ve had enuf of Putin killing innocent ppl. Pres Trump Take action AT LEAST SANCTIONS," Grassley wrote.


I've said it before...Trump's first term was a cakewalk. He had one crisis to deal with and failed miserably at it. Now he's dealing with multiple wars, multiple court injunctions relative to deportation, multiple lawsuits relative to 1st amendment rights, multiple criticisms of his tariff agenda, bad poll numbers and an unattainable list of "promises kept."

He probably is suffering 'emotional overload'.

This is all lip service from the GOP. They will receive a phone call and then fall inline with Trump and Putin
