I’m not so sure, as it would be the VP and members of the Cabinet (all Republicans) who would initiate this process. That kind of leadership in support of democracy could help de-escalate this.

It's not loyalty to the Republican party that's out there. It's loyalty to trump, it wouldn't do anything to absolve their complaints against the system.

Fine. Escalation is sometimes necessary - otherwise one can be intimidated.

Agreed. History does not tend to look favorably on those who appease bullies.

Congratulations! You just capitulated to terrorists!

Only in the same way that neutralizing Osama Bin Laden was capitulating to Al Qaeda.

Edit: I misread this exchange. Lots of pronouns flying around.
