John Roberts is a conservative justice, but he also cares about his "legacy". I think we know that Alito, Thomas, and Beer Boy will all vote to protect their monarch, but Gorsuch and Roberts may surprise us. Let's keep thinking positively!!

Cheers!

but give me a day or two and I'll find something to cling to.

Right now, I'm just pissed off and frustrated beyond belief.

I wonder what fuckery he'll get up to tomorrow, since in his tiny mind, it likely means he is 100% off the hook for everything, between this and The Turtle's promise that he'll get off scot free in the Senate.

He's going to go full dictator.

But he hasn't yet! The House will impeach and we will see what the Senate will do (not expecting him to be tossed out of office).

You are correct to say that he will be up with some other BS to distract the media.

I'm just exhausted. And Goddess Help Us if he finds a way to be reelected next year. I don't know what I would do then.

Trying to keep an occasional positive attitude - although most days, it's difficult.

Submerge yourself in another world for a while.

Enjoy yourself. My younger daughter is coming home for the Holidays on Monday and my older daughter will be here next weekend. That will go a long way to putting a smile on my lips.

If the records come out - and I don't see how the Supremes can rule the POTUS is above the law - there could be serious, serious, dirty, criminal dirt.
