And Congress is about as useful as tits on a boar-hog, as my dear departed Grandpa used to say.

is that anyone with more than two brain cells could see this coming a mile away before Trump was elected!

His dishonesty .... his cheating .... his abysmal treatment of women .... his xenophobia and ignorance ..... it was all out there in plain view, and the deplorables voted for him anyway. Now look what we have to endure every day.

Comey even said that Trump has no idea what the job of President is all about. And he sure as hell isn't interested in learning.

office. They voted for him just because they knew it piss off liberals. They don't care about the country or electing the best candidate. They knew who he was and what he was and voted for him out of spite.

And then us normal folks could elect someone thoughtful and sane to be our leader.

For fifteen year to have a functioning executive branch. They have been open about their desire to destroy it.

Here's What Donald Trump Said on the Campaign Trail About a President Being Under Investigation
By Jennifer Calfas | June 15, 2017

... But before he was elected president, Trump repeatedly blasted 2016 Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton for the investigation into her use of a private e-mail server while Secretary of State. In fact, Trump said having a sitting president under criminal investigation would result in a “constitutional crisis.”

“She’s likely to be under investigation for criminality for a very, very long time to come,” Trump said during a Oct. 31, 2016 speech in Warren, Mich.

“We’re going to be tied up in court for the rest of our lives with this deal,” he added, referring to if Clinton were elected. “She’s not going to win the election, but I’m just saying. If Hillary is elected, she will be under protracted criminal investigation likely followed by the trial of a sitting president. This is just what we need.”

“If Hillary Clinton were to be elected, it would create an unprecedented and protracted constitutional crisis,” Trump said during another speech on Nov. 2, 2016.

Two days ahead of the election on Nov. 5, 2016, Trump said Clinton’s “current scandals and controversies will continue throughout her presidency” and it would be “impossible for her to govern.”
