The wheels on the bus are coming off, day 3 - Recusal refusal

>>>

We all knew that Trump thinks that the purpose of every sector of government, executive, legislative, and judicial, is to serve his needs.
Now we have further proof this is the case. The following paragraph is the kill shot:

Mr. Trump then asked, “Where’s my Roy Cohn?” He was referring to his former personal lawyer and fixer, who had been Senator Joseph R. McCarthy’s top aide during the investigations into communist activity in the 1950s and died in 1986.



Yes. Trump longs for the ghost of Roy Cohn, who, if there's any justice, is in Hell right now having horrible things done to him. He thinks the Justice Department should operate like a low-life law firm, shielding him from the nasty world.

Between the publication of Fire and Fury, this Times piece, and the piece in New York Magazine, in the span of a week we've had confirmed what we always knew: Trump is a dangerously unhinged megalomaniac, who went from running for President as a lark to believing he actually had the nous and gravitas to inhabit the world's most powerful office.


Just a couple of weeks ago, the punditry was saying that Trump had turned a page after his tax "victory". Those of us who observed him knew this wouldn't last. And it hasn't. A regime as dysfunctional as this one can never hold on to any gains. It will lose them and then some. The saving grace which gives us more than a fighting chance is that Trump is no steely-eyed schemer like Vladimir Putin. He's an undisciplined, out of control child, who has been given matches and a stove. He can still do a lot of damage, and is doing so. But his time on the stage will be short.

America has become a reality show. Just no one could have imagined anything so vile actually happening. Most disgusting reality show I can imagine (I do not watch reality shows. They are bullshit). Ahhh!

A fake 'Resident...who from what we hear, never wanted the job. Yet he seems to have acquired a taste for robbing the Treasury and the tax payers blind...and more so much more.

Thanks, bobby.

No matter how the WH and Congress try to distract, none of this is going away...the die has been cast. Wolffe has scored such a hit others will now want scoops (two) of their own. It is the true beginning of the diminishment of his presidency and IMHO he'll be losing it more and more to the point where they can't hide or ignore it.

The drip drip drip has escalated into a steady flow. The masks are off and one by one will be taken down by their own.

I hope their decent into hell is painful.

Luvs your two scoops comment...
