Ditto. As a former elected official, I know the personal sacrifice involved with serving in ANY elected office. I commend them for stepping up to serve their communities and wish them the best of luck in the general. We desperately NEED good people in office.

Tillis reportedly revived and was awake in the ambulance.

What did phatj (and/or his wife) run for? Either way, congrats and good luck in the general!

It was 15 months after the appointment of the special prosecutor and 10 months from the firing of the special prosecutor when Nixon resigned (so would've taken longer for actual impeachment and a trial in the Senate to occur). This was with a large Dem majority in both houses of Congress.

Trump fired Comey 8 days ago.

seems like it should because the WH screws up/does something illegal at a frenetic pace. however, congress is slower than ever, and the ball is in their court.

Amash tells reporters that if Comey memo allegations are true, it's grounds for impeachment. Says he trusts Comey more than Trump.

Day 116/117 of the Trump Presidency

All depends how you count, its 117 @ 1300 today

Isn't it fucking amazing that has not been 4 month, seriously, not 4 fucking months, but it has been approximately 2 years worth of fatigue, and mental anguish.

Too bad you cannot yet make a countdown clock.

At the same time, Nixon won re-election in '72 with FIVE HUNDRED TWENTY electoral votes (McGovern essentially accidentally won 17).

drumpf has no such national confidence cushion, being essentially the Process Error President

I no it is rhetorical, but no one is. The business of the people and the nation languish under clouds of drama, incompetence, and self interest. If there is a fire on a ship, all hands are assigned to controlling, containing, and extinguishing the fire, nothing is more important as saving the ship at sea. That is what is happening in the administration today and everyday. Somehow that fire has spread off the ship, like it happened in port, as other ships, structures, the dock, and, beyond comprehension, the water is fully involved.

The good news is that Paul Ryan is apparently explaining that all is well, and that he and the GOP led house have it all under control. They are driving the people's agenda, and doing good works. He is also towing the line for the WH using WH talking points.
