I Keep Hearing The Term "Constitutional Crisis" Bandied About On The Cable News Shows - But....

what exactly will that look like? What is a 'constitutional crisis'? Who labels or identifies it as such? How will the two Parties (Dems & Repugs) react to it? Essentially - what happens in a 'constitutional crisis'?

McCain Ought To Get A Clue Here.....

McConnell only was thinking about getting this passed today - he did not care one iota about the health of McCain. McCain just had brain surgery. He could have died on the plane ride into D.C. McConnell was willing to take a chance on that happening just to get this passed today. He pressured McCain to take that chance. McCain's ego got the better of him and he bought McConnell's line of flattery. You can just imagine what McConnell said to McCain to take that chance.

Twice Now MSNBC Talked Over Shumer When He Was Addressing The Senate On Health Bill.....

earlier today and just now. The host of the show would rather talk with a Repug that was in the Kushner meeting than listen to the Dems side of this healthcare debate. Both times I switched to CNN and CNN had televised Shumer's comments. Now McConnell is talking I just switched back to MSNBC and they are televising McConnell's comments.

Not Shumer's comments only McConnell's comments.

That's just unfair to the American People.

If Trump Only Channeled His Energies & Talents That He Uses To Cover Up His Crimes To Do......

good things - he could probably be a good president.

Just look at the sinister ways he acts and the tactics he uses to boost his own self. One has to realize that he does have some thought processes going on in his head - beyond senile dementia.

Who would have brought up pardons? Who would have strategized about recess appointments.

All the energies he's using to obstruct justice and cover his ass - if channeled for good - could have created a good legacy for this man.

There is good and evil out there in the world. He chose evil!!!!!! Sad.

Why Do The Repugs Keep Circling The Wagons Around Trump?....

Why do they continue to protect him? What does he hold over them to make them cower from him?

Are they really that much in line with him or are they just scared to cross him?

I just don't get it. Aren't there any sane Repugs out there that still love their country and would place country over Party?

The Powers That Be That Run The Boy Scouts Of America....

that made the decision to have Trump as a speaker - should all resign. Embarrassing. There should be no politics in the BSA.

Watch For Who's Private Jet John McCain Is Using....

flying to D.C. today.

I don't think Mitch will make McCain fly commercial today.

Wondering if this is allowed?

What Does Steve Bannon Do?......

We haven't heard much about him as of late. Seems like Kushner, Don Jr, Manafort and Sessions are getting all the coverage lately.

Is Bannon keeping a low profile or is he behind all the scheming coming from the WH?
