We'd better all stop tweeting about #25thAmendment and #25thAmendmentNow then. Wouldn't want to rattle 45.

The only hope in hell we have of getting any sanity in the White House before 2020 is to change the balance of power in the House next year and then get both 45 and Pence for colluding with Russia. Then the Speaker takes over. It's a crazy long shot though.

I think she did a really good job and under normal circumstances I'd love for her to have another turn at the gavel. But this is different: I want someone in line to be president who is REALLY going to piss the Republicans the fuck off. How about President Adam Schiff? That young man would have no problem with ordering an investigation that would tear the GOP, their propaganda arm, and their gun arm asunder.

The more relevant it becomes to explore the prospect.

Imagine if Obama had come undone every time the Republican propaganda machine put out something that put him down. He'd have been making public appearances with a copy of his birth certificate pasted on the back of his suit jacket. But instead, he just grinned, put on his sunglasses, and said, "later, dude."

Trump, on the other hand, throws tantrum(p)s the moment a post mocking him shows up on the blog of the University of Southern North Dakota at Hoople, let alone something more widely read.
