- xnx 2y agoThe 2A crowd has thoughts about this
- bediger4000 2y agoYeah, thoughts and prayers. I'll believe the 2A crowd if they ever do something.
- yongjik 2y agoYou have more faith in them than I do. I wouldn't be surprised if the 2A crowd rise up, in a year or two, to defend America's Lord and Savior Trump from leftist thugs.

- jfengel 2y agoNo, we can't. It's unconstitutional. Besides... even where recalls are allowed, it's only by their own district. The Congressmen were just elected, and their constituents generally approve of this. A recall effort would certainly fail. In theory they could be expelled by Congress itself. But obviously that's not going to happen.
