It's Past Time For The Adults Repugs In D.C. To March Into The WH & Tell Trump It's Over.......

The Repugs need to decide which side they are on. Are they on the side of the American People and the Country like the oath of office that they all take OR are they going to go down with Trump.

If we are going to have a shutdown - they need to shutdown Trump.

25 45!!!!!!!!

With Respect To SDNY's Contention That Cohen Didn't Cooperate Fully.....

should other Cohen crimes be uncovered by SDNY in the future - can Cohen be tried separately for them and get an extended jail sentence or does 'double jeopardy' kick in here?

And has the question of a Cohen trip to Prague ever been resolved?

Let's Talk Government Shutdown....

Will Trump really shut it down if he doesn't get wall money? Will Trump cave? Will he be stubborn enough to go through with a shutdown?

How will the Repugs handle such a shutdown? (McConnell?) as the Repugs will get the blame for Trump's ego.

Will the Dems call his bluff and let him shut it down?

Will the Dems (Nancy & Chuck) cave and give him the money?

Should the Dems give him the money for the wall? All of it ($5 billion)? Some of it (a lesser amount)? None of it?

How long would or could such a shut-down last? Happening around Christmas/New Years - do they really want to do this? Does Trump really want to do this?

Is this just an exercise for testing how the new relationship (Dems having the House dealing with the WH) will work going forward over the next 2 years?

Do Nancy & Chuck just want to teach Trump a lesson in bipartisan compromise? (i.e., show him if both sides give a little - all can win)

Really - I look at this as a watershed moment for the next 2 years of business in D.C.. Will it be business as usual - no progress - more of the same partisan fighting? Or this confrontation yesterday be a 'teachable moment' in how the next 2 years should or will work?

How Could The Trump Organization Benefit From A Border Wall?.....

I have to think that Trump wanting $5 billion (of $25 billion) for the wall is because in some way the Trump Organization will benefit (get money) from the deal. Trump always has an angle on things and this wall - in my mind - is no exception.

So has anyone figured out how the Trump Organization could benefit from this wall - if funded?

If Trump sees financial benefit from the wall - IF this financial benefit to the Trump Organization is EXPOSED - this might be the end of wall talk from Trump.

Has Anyone Recently Asked Trump About Mexico Paying For The Wall?.....

Has Trump totally given up on Mexico paying for the wall? After all that was in his campaign promise about the wall. How is he now justifying the money to come from the U.S. taxpayers?

There Is A Great Incentive For Trump, The Repugs & Maybe Even The Russians To Win The WH In 2020....

As long as Trump is the pResident he has immunity from prosecution. The incentive for him to win in 2020 will be enormous. Can you imagine the cheating, the voter suppression, the stealing of votes that will happen in 2020 by the Repugs. Even their donors will feel the pressure.

Things need to be in place before the 2020 election to minimize any of the tricks the Repugs and Trump and the Russians will pull to win the WH.
