Moderate Republicans like to talk about the dangers of Donald Trump. They should take action instead.
Instead of taking concrete action to hold Trump accountable, however, they’ve been satisfied to criticize him while confirming his nominees and advancing his legislative agenda, such that it exists.

They’re posturing against Trump while doing little to actually stop him.
