protect our country, so he doesn’t have a say in our recreational activities. And if I don’t want to hear any of this “the president can’t be indicted or sit for an interview for Mueller because he is to busy”. Someone please tally up this degenerates time spent tweeting, golfing and rallies against actual time doing presidential stuff. I guarntee the down time outweighs the time spent doing actual Presidential work.

9. Third, make all your meetings open to the appropriate people.

No more two hour off-the-record meetings with our biggest adversary without a record of what was agreed to.

...he'd still be completely in the wrong regarding NFL players kneeling during the anthem.

Putin is a murderous dictator who is trying to undermine trust in democratic institutions and is interfering in elections, in both the US and Europe. And all signs point to Trump being beholden to Putin due to money owed or kompromat, or both. Meanwhile, Trump is alienating allies and poses a national security risk. That's what I would say, rather than even bothering to suggest Trump might stand up to Putin. Drop the pretenses--let's not pretend like Trump standing up to Putin is even under consideration. We all know it isn't.

It's good to see more Democrats fighting back. Schiff, Lieu, Swallwell...

Let's see some more of this from the rest of the states. Personally, I think my Reps and Senators in MA have been a little too quiet, with the exception of Warren. I want to hear more from them condemning Trump and the republicans.
