(4,835 posts)And the next two years we will be getting news out of congress about the investigation into the Russian hacking. The democrats will take over the house and senate in 2 years and they'll work on legislation that Pence will veto, until he is gone in 2020. A few of Obama's appointments will stay around to help with the transition because Trump can't get his cabinet through the republican controlled congress.
It'll be like the Iran/Contra hearings during the Reagan administration.
People talk about "worse than watergate", but I think it'll be "worse than Iran Contra" more people were investigated, convicted, sentenced etc.
They'll be so mired in scandal, they won't forward much of an agenda. That's my prediction. Next year, you won't be able to find anyone who will admit they supported Trump.
I'm just trying to balance some of the doom and gloom, but there will likely be convictions.
