You know what I'm gonna say, right? The hearing took place on Thursday, and it was really damning for the GOP in addition to Team Trump.
I know I'm a crazy man saying Browder Browder Browder all the time, but there's been a noticeable change since before the weekend. It was actually started a few days before Browder, when Trump made that "non-political" speech for the Boy Scouts and dictated the transgender military ban.
But there's definitely been a new movement of pushing back and calling Trump out like never before. Several GOP have spoken in a way that exposed Trump's flaws rather than just being deeply concerned, the Scouts sent a message out to criticize the political speech, the military stated that they were ignoring the transgender orders, police across the country condemned him for advocating brutality, the Scouts again called him out along with the President of Mexico for lying about their congratulatory phone calls, Congress has been chattering about applying new restrictions on Trump besides the sanctions, McConnell pushed back when he was ordered to continue with Trumpcare, and there were several more examples from today.
People are starting to learn how much of a lying weak criminal Trump really is. They aren't as scared of him, they realize he must be investigated for crimes, and they're sick of not getting the truth!
As for the GOP, keep a close eye on who parts with Trump, how soon, and for what reason. We may be able to get a good indication of who's compromised (aside from Nunes, Grassley, Cornyn, Roherbacher or however you say/spell it, to name a few probables), who's clean, and maybe even what they know that could warrant using their position to obstruct justice.
Unless Trump pulls some incredible moves, it's only going to get better from here. Which also means we should be afraid, because Trump won't be taken down without a fierce fight, and we're on the verge of more than just 1 or 2 wars.
EDIT: I realized that I mixed two issues together in this post, Browder's hearing affecting GOP and Trump's actions affecting organizations. The point I am trying to make (and maybe failed at before) is that the movement had accelerated a day after the hearing. GOP criticizing on the weekend shows, Flake's written attack, Congressional actions listed above, etc. It's the first time we're seeing more than just one Graham or McCain at a time come out against the crook.
