A transcript and embed of Erickson’s Instagram post in which the Republican Congressman is quoted as saying they and others are prepared to “take out the President”:

Tonight I got to spend some time at a Safeway grocery store with a Republican Member of Congress almost all of you would recognize. You will sometimes see him on Fox News defending the President. But he has come to despise the man privately even though he doesn’t say anything in public right now.

We roamed the aisles of the Safeway grocery store so he could complain about the President. He knew I would write about it and is happy to be quoted. He is livid.

“Needless to say I think if the president were to fire Robert Mueller at this point the votes are there to impeach him. A lot of Republican Congressmen are so frustrated and realizing they may lose their reelection that they are perfectly happy to take out the President with them because they all blame him.”

Erickson said the Congressman is afraid to speak out publicly because he would be primaried and voted out by the Trump supporters in his district.

Then THAT ought to tell his dumb ass something.................

Bush League Republicans want to get back to business as usual, importing cheap labor and betraying the citizens.

This is why Trump needs to fire Mueller in the middle of election season...The next Congress won’t be as favorable, he has nothing...why let him continue to dig? Fire him and let them try to impeach based on that alone

Erickson is a pompous blowhard that like to pretend he has access he doesn’t. That why he has 16 minutes of air time between 44 minutes of traffic/news/weather on a local Atlanta radio station

Perhaps an injunction should be sought against Mueller and the Department of Justice for Amendment I, IV, and VIII infractions.

Trump had a right to make a winning campaign speech without the distraction of a porn star.

Trump has a right to attorney/client confidentiality.

Every American has a right not to suffer abuse of process.

Trying to fire Mueller would be as effective as yelling at the squirrels in my back yard.

He has to be stopped in courts of law by the best lawyers Trump can hire.

What I find revolting in all of this is that men and women who took the same oath as I did (I’ve actually taken two oaths, one when I enlisted in 1976, the other in 2004, when I started working for the Civil Service) to protect and defend the Constitution against ALL enemies foreign and DOMESTIC.

We are seeing that the career politicians, D & R, care nothing for the citizens of this country. They have a globalist agenda and they want to keep to it.....why? What were they promised if they “toe’d the line”

It is time to vote them all out, and if not all, hopefully a majority of the traitors.

The evidence that has been exposed by this sham of a investigation has shown D collusion with Russia to throw the election to Hillary, yet, no arrests, and there won’t be either. So stop with the smoke and mirrors and be honest for once. Tell the truth that you don’t care what the socialists have done, to include murder, it is all about making America a third world country as quick as you can to install a “socialist utopia” world wide.

Just a little frustrated with all these lies.

IF true (and there is every reason that there are members of Congress who are of such a mind; then I remind them that The Constitution (Article VI, clause 3) specifies:

“The Senators and Representatives before mentioned, and the members of the several state legislatures, and all executive and judicial officers, both of the United States and of the several states, shall be bound by oath or affirmation, to support this Constitution; but no religious test shall ever be required as a qualification to any office or public trust under the United States.”

Further, at the start of each new U.S. Congress the entire House of Representatives and one-third of the Senate – must recite an oath:

“I, (name), do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same; that I take this obligation freely, without any mental reservation or purpose of evasion; and that I will well and faithfully discharge the duties of the office on which I am about to enter. So help me God.”

FAKENEWS Erickson

Show us the audio clip of the Congressman, otherwise you cannot quote that much detail from memory.
And no Congressman will go on audio record, as that is a suicide career.

But NeverTrump Reps be gone!

Well, let’s take a look. Realclearpolitics (a Trump-hater) ranks the midterms with a 21-seat loss for the Pubblies, for a 204-201 slim majority. Now, compare to 2016, where the same poll gave the Repubs a similarly slim majority, not the 24-seat one they enjoyed. The Repubs will keep both the House and Senate. The campaign by the Dems screaming “Impeach!” will not succeed. The Meuller fiasco will, however, continue. We’ll see how tough Trump is.

Considering the absolutely critical negotiations going on, today, with respect to trade & North Korea; the necessity of securing our border against would be America haters flooding the Southwest, and the critical need to deal with lawless intruders already here, in incredibly large numbers; as well as the need to root out seditious bureaucrats who put the sociopathic views of a George Soros, ahead of those of the Founding Fathers; for any Republican to even suggest stabbing Trump in the back would be an unforgivable betrayal of America. It would call for a reaction beyond anything seen on this subcontinent since our victory in 1781, at Yorktown.
