We don't have a functioning government any more.

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

The president is corrupt and insane; his minions do his bidding - when they can figure out what it is - for no reason other than to maintain their own power; the House, which is trying to do something, is hamstrung by the Senate, which refuses to do anything.

Turning and turning in the widening gyre
The falcon cannot hear the falconer;
Things fall apart; the centre cannot hold;
Mere anarchy is loosed upon the world,
The blood-dimmed tide is loosed, and everywhere
The ceremony of innocence is drowned;
The best lack all conviction, while the worst
Are full of passionate intensity.

1. The AG and Secy of State are both in Rome

Ginning up trash on.... someone. No one is heading their departments, but that's okay because the entire job if the administration now is covering up for Trump. Nothing else matters to them.
Why? Really they have to see he is going down. Why don't they back away? I don't get it.

2. Can the MSM stop beating around the bush and finally call this a Constitutional Crisis?

3. So right, and it's only going to get worse. trump brings chaos wherever he goes.

What I don't get is he gets people to lie and cheat for him and destroy their own careers and reputations.

Pompeo, Barr, Conway, Ghouliani, Nunes, Sanders, Pence, McCarthy, et al.

Only Mattis escaped with his integrity intact that I can think of. Tillerson escaped but was scarred. He did do his own damage on trump though. Spineless Ryan and Chaffetz got away but with badly damaged reps, as did Sessions.

Moscow Mitch is the slickest so far as he has his own agenda that has used trump to accomplish his own nefarious goals.
