About the "Political Stunt of Storming a Hearing." Looks like Trump's idea to me..

..I got no clues or contacts to this idea of storming and stopping a hearing while in progress. Don't know nothing. But it is kind of sleazy and stupid. Kind of thing Trump would think of. Stop everything in its tracks, by literally putting a bus in front of the road that crosses the tracks. Bus loaded with kids, and info that the bus is stuck on the tracks way ahead of time, so the train must stop.
...Who has an idea like that? Maybe that is what the Republicans are? But it is a very sad reflection no matter where the idea came from. I wonder how long the pukes will sit on the tracks? Don't ask me, I am just an observer of the show.

I would have bet money there was an underlying tactic to this maneuver.

But in the here and now, the only conclusion I can reach is that they're simply Idiot trump's flying monkeys doing what flying monkey do best, making a mess and blaming the process.
