The Republicans don't care about the country anymore than Trump does. The reason they won't ever impeach a ineffective and dangerous President is because they can exploit his lack of knowledge and push through their policy goals.
As long as there are Republicans in government power the USA is at risk for failure.

Retiring Sen. Jeff Flake, R-Ariz., who denounced Trump on the Senate floor back in October ("When the next generation asks us: 'Why didn't you do something? Why didn't you speak up?' What are we going to say?"), has consistently voted for Trump’s policies and nominees.
Retiring Sen. Bob Corker, R-Tenn. – who also blasted Trump last fall ("His governing model is to divide and to attempt to bully and to use untruths”) — still voted for Trump’s tax legislation.
The cartoon below are not policy changes, they are hate. And there is plenty of hate to go around from this administration, including the new tax LAW. The wealthy have permanent cuts to this income, while the national debt grows out of control. As the debt grows every year the wealthy continue to enjoy their tax cuts and who pays for it? The Middle Class and the Poor. The Middle Class and Poor receive growing tax burdens for ten years to oppress any gains they may have had. That is hatred. Recognize it and know Mnuchen is not the man for the job either.

And Sen. Lindsey Graham, R-S.C., who said Trump was “crazy,” “unifit” and “a kook” during the 2016 GOP presidential primaries, has emerged as a key Trump ally.
On “Meet the Press” yesterday, Graham explained why he still sticks up for Trump: 1) because Trump is president, and 2) because Trump can help him with his policy goals....
This is the president they insult and dislike and criticize and this is what leadership to them looks like. A president engaged in watching TV and tweeting. This is the president that claims there is false news in the media. He wastes his time watching false news and mitigating it to his political favor. I suppose the US Congress considers his propaganda vital to their purpose and believes Trump should spend more time in front of television and tweeting, rather than trying to be president.

President Trump (click here) is starting his official day much later than he did in the early days of his presidency, often around 11am, and holding far fewer meetings, according to copies of his private schedule shown to Axios. This is largely to meet Trump’s demands for more “Executive Time,” which almost always means TV and Twitter time alone in the residence, officials tell us.
The schedules shown to me are different than the sanitized ones released to the media and public.
