If you are into Physics then you know WIMP is short for Weak Interactive Massive Particle. It is part of the basic structure of everything. Few Americans have ever heard of WIMPs. Another meaning for WIMP is Weak In Moral Patriotism. We currently have a major political party which is a great example of being a WIMP in more ways than one.
The WIMPy Republican members of Congress, both Representatives and Senators, have given up their constitutional role in government to allow the President and an unofficial group to take control of the Federal Government’s operation which Congress has funded.
Why have they relinquished control? The main reason is their fear of losing their next primary election because of President Trump’s threats and Elon Musk’s money, along with his threat to use 100 million dollars against them. This is public extortion but don’t expect the Justice Department to act since Trump has complete control of the country’s Federal Justice Departments. Of course, the President can always pardon Musk for anything he or his group does.
Congress’ problem is once they wimped out they don’t know how to get back moral patriotism they have expounded upon for the last few decades. Many know they have signed on to the egomaniac that thirsts for power and are cowed by his threats. Others not only want to stay in their office but want to increase their power. The newbies are just going along with what their leadership is telling them to do.
A point of 1930’s German History is the Großdeutscher Reichstag thought they could control Hitler after they allowed him to be Chancellor, then President, and then Führer which was too late. It only took about 100 days. History has a habit of repeating itself, doesn’t it?
