Anonymous Republican's Shocking Take on Trump: 'Impeach The Motherfcker' In a riveting discussion, The Young Turks' hosts Cenk Uygur and John Iadarola unpack a fascinating and blunt critique from an anonymous Republican congressman regarding Donald Trump. The congressman, speaking candidly and off the record, expresses sentiments that are notably rare among elected Republicans, particularly in public discourse. The main highlights from this eye-opening conversation include the congressman likening Trump to "an evil, really fcking stupid Forrest Gump." This comment drives home a point about how some within the GOP may feel about the President, despite publicly toeing the party line. The critique extends beyond mere insult; it emphasizes a growing frustration and concern within the ranks about Trump's presidency and its implications for the Republican Party's future.
