I'd reluctantly accept it.

The only move a Republican is apt to make is one that pisses off Democrats.

This may qualify. We may not like the rationale, but the end result ousts Trump from office.

Then again, the DOJ and some state AG's might have another plan to oust him and the other administration/Congressional cockroaches, and that would be much more thorough, and avoid the dreaded presidential pardon power.

Women's healthcare rights is so democratic, as is his support of pay equity, protecting the environment, trying to detroy democratic institutions like the press, etc.

I don't care what his registered political affiliation was ten years ago. He spent the last nine years harassing and defaming a democratic president. And now he supports all kinds of anti-democratic right-wing, anti-woman, bigotted policies.

He's a republican. They bought him, they own him.
