You think? He’s not really used to letting people talk for him, his handlers were constantly having to retwist his sound bites.

I know everyone is grossed out by the T swift attempt to be Be.

You think his actual first act will be to pardon himself and then sue the FBI to prevent himself from any other investigations?

If he was popular elected, I’d be more worried. But he’s not. And demos know they won’t get reelected if they don’t fight him tooth and nail. This will be another do nothing Congress, but it will be a relief.

Most of his plans with require a majority, which he’s not guaranteed to have, despite being Republican. There are people who actually want to be re elected.

Mitch has already said, “we’ll see.” The problem is that Trump thinks he can fire him.

And with his agenda of schools of choice, we are going to be even dumber.

Until he sends an executive order to be dictator. Which is act 0 on this agenda.

Unfortunately I agree. But I will bite them in the butt when the jobs Trump promised never come.

Hmmm... am thinking you are one of those troll type people who come to Jez for the argument.

Had that too. Crazy bullying by the Trump supporter kids, lots of baiting. Then so so so many scared and sad kids. Who are broken.

I teach too, and used to at a school like yours. How can we go to work today?

Um... that isn’t true. The freedom act actually gave the president the power to declare war (and enact some martial laws) without Congressional approval. Obama and Bush have used the freedom act to override Congress numerous times. Bush used it to spy on cell phones, Obama to fly drones, Bush to invade Iraq, Obama to…

Germany, because Merkel isn’t hot. Japan, because slanty eyes are distrustful, China because, well, slanty eyes again.

Oooh, I forgot that point too. We weren’t considered a world power until after WW1, and really didn’t live up to the title until after WW2.

Seriously, the only thing that would help me get through the next 4 years is if Obama would finally give up the ghost on the 911 bill. It gives crazy pants way too much power.

With the current voter laws, the gerrymandering that the Republican Congress created, and the likelihood of an especially “conservative” Supreme Court, I think recovery won’t happen. The US has enjoyed the shortest world power run in history.

Exactly, and a lot of those assholes (and the Congress who puppeteered some of them) have had a lasting effect. People tend to forget that elections throughout the 19th century were often rigged so the disenfranchised had no chance. Women got the power to vote after those of color specifically because men were afraid…

Harding, whose cronyism lead to Black Tuesday? Hoover (the most like Trump) who tried to “fix” Harding’s outcome in a way that left us with the power that bankers still enjoy to this day?

You have a small point, but this is why even Buchanan or Johnson are not equivocations. They all were leaders during times when the US had a strong legislative branch, and in terms of Truman, Garfield, Harrison (other shitheads), Johnson, Hoover, etc they were all dispised by Congress that they were rendered…
