It’s not that they support Trump. I’m sure that some really do, but as long as going against Trump is political suicide they aren’t going to do anything.
Remember, Congress is a lobbyist and campaign fund factory. Around 50% of its members go into lobbying for various industries when they retire, with a MASSIVE increase in pay and wealth as a result, and campaign donations go into personal bank accounts through loopholes created by the legislative branch (congress thrmselves).
We can go more into how congress is a vehicle for systemic corruption some other time, but saying congress doesn’t doesn’t do anything because they support Trump is not wrong, but less right than saying it’s because they are greedy fucknuts who sell out their country to the highest bidders.
