Calm celebrations are in order: The larger legislative body is taking severe action today

Regardless of what the senate does, our government is protecting democracy and representative government. Even if 40% of us can't figure that out.

He will need to be "patrolled" constantly, from now on, because he will do anything possible to get his revenge. With Putin helping, God only knows what he can plan and achieve.

Shame on those who are "babysitting" Trump for allowing him to destroy as much as he has.

The greedy only care about their tax cuts, stocks, 401K. It doesn’t matter what Trump does or says as long as their nest is further feathered.

The pious only care about their reward in heaven. To get it, they must oppose the heathen Democrats on earth. We are the most vile things they can imagine because of abortion, gay marriage, liberal “fake” churches.

These two groups can come together and agree that greed is good to God because of the new “Prosperity Gospel”. Google it if you’re not familiar with it. So, much for “the meek shall inherit the earth”.

The vestigial Senate of Lords is becoming a malignant growth as its creatures flounder about the swamp, feeding on the feted waste of that mire’s corporate/political leeches.
