PROMINENT REPUBLICANS COMING FORWARD

"High-minded Republicans have always been very vocal throughout this administration. We're now at the stage where "the sinking ship is rattling with the clamor of scattering vermin in search of a conscience." This colorful metaphor came from none other than Tea Party veteran Mackenzie Vinterbottom. The stunning reversal of previously staunch supporters of the President has left White House officials at a pivotal crossroad. Many have privately voiced their plans for resignation. Those closest to the President have hired attorneys and some have sought out public relations firms specializing in reputation rehabilitation. "This is the ultimate inflection point," said Republican fund raiser Tennie Scotts.

With George T. Conway III, Steve Schmidt, John Weaver, Rick Wilson and William Webster leading the way, many Republican senators are, for the first time, reconsidering their fidelity to President Trump. Vinterbottom wryly noted that "when you see the Secretary of State lawyering up you know there's a huge storm ahead."
