The Republican-led Senate voted decisively to punish Moscow for interfering in the 2016 election by approving a wide-ranging sanctions package that targets key sectors of Russia's economy and individuals who carried out cyber attacks.
Senators on Wednesday passed the bipartisan sanctions legislation 97-2, underscoring broad support among Republicans and Democrats for rebuking Russia after U.S. intelligence agencies determined Moscow had deliberately interfered in the presidential campaign. Lawmakers who backed the measure also cited Russia's aggression in Syria and Ukraine.

You can't expect everyone to have the same level of emotional reaction. Trump is terrible and the GOP is green lighting some of the worst stuff because trump is dumb enough to go along. However, this is nothing new. Rights eroding, public services defended, par for the course really. KGIII has a very good point, life is too short for hatred. Get mad, but let it go and move forward rationally.
