These people aren't protecting the country, if you believe that.

They are enabling a dangerous man to continue in one of the most powerful offices on the planet, because they refuse to stand up and tell the truth about the matter.

You can't actually impeach Trump from being incompetent. The people voted him in, and unless Trump is found to have commited a crime in winning the presidency, there really isn't anything that can be done by White House employees.

if he's actually deranged and incompetent to the point of being unable to handle the presidency they have the option of the 25th amendment.

But they obviously do not actually believe that.

Or they believe that the fallout from trying to go that route will be worse than the fallout from letting Trump continue but trying to contain him as best as possible.
