'President has met his match'

Politico, 1-4-2019

" Freshman Rep. Rashida Tlaib declared Thursday night that the newly installed Democratic majority in the House will "go in there and impeach the motherf---er," breaking with party leaders and stirring controversy just hours after officially taking office. "

(Trump responds)

" “I think she dishonored herself and her family using language like that in front of her son and whoever else was there,” sniffed POTUS. “I thought that was a great dishonor to her and her family.”

“I thought it was highly disrespectful to the United States of America,” added Trump. who as President, referred to Stormy Daniels as “horseface,” and to NFL players taking a knee during the national anthem as “sons of bitches,” to name just a couple of his eyebrow-raising remarks since moving in to the White House. Before being elected, of course, he was best known for boasting on an Access Hollywood bus that he was so famous he could grab women “by the p*ssy” with impunity. "

" Rep. Rashida Tlaib doubles down after explicit Trump comment: 'President has met his match' "

" "I stand by impeaching the president of the United States," Tlaib said. "I ran on that."

On Thursday, Tlaib was sworn in as the first American-Palestinian woman in Congress. That made national news, but her comments Thursday night were what have everyone talking.

She's not apologizing. "

Worse yet, continuing to do the same tired shit but expecting different results is insanity defined.

(McAuliffe criticised Tlaib today while making a case for his candidacy)

But in fairness, Rudy makes a pretty good case for insanity too.
