I think continuing to assume there’s no understanding or reasoning behind what the White House does is just wearing blinders.

The GOP controls 2 of 3 branches of the government and it’s not by accident.

Yes, I remember when Trump masterminded the entirety of the 2010 Republican election that is responsible for that.

I don’t see why talking about pelosi bad is a distraction when half of every analysis peice I see about the election on every online news rag you can to look at is about how Pelosi is already loving up.

I’d bet that by this time next year we’ll be burning her in effigy along side trump.

You fuckers just REALLY want to just out and out call her a witch, don't you?

Okay so let's game this out.

Trump doesn't fire Mueller, he just locks him down and cuts his budget to nothing. The Senate doesn't do anything about it because they are Republicans and basically all traitors to the concept of democracy. There are some protests because Rosenstein is out, but none of the fill-the-streets stuff because Mueller wasn't technically fired.

What happens next? Can the investigations proceed with zero budget? Does it matter if they do, if the Senate won't cooperate? How much does Dems holding the House influence this?

alot of the info is NY state DOJ stuff and such too. plus i think trump will fire mueller because he is spiteful and wants immediate gratification.

"we'll be burning in effigy someone Old USPOL already routinely burnt in effigy" is not a particularly courageous take :v:
