Make no mistake...we're facing some contentious, divisive, fugly days ahead.

Morning Joe just showed a clip of McConnell basically saying "KISS MY ASS," with a live interview with Schumer calling this "a mockery of Democracy"...McConnell is holding all the cards, he's fully in the bag for Trump, there is no way in hell that we'll be walking away from this saying "Well...that wasn't so bad." It's going to BE that bad, and in all likelihood, probably worse than what we're expecting.

This is unprecedented...everything America stands for upended by a failed real estate "mogul" and reality TV star.

The Republican party having free reign to say "Nothing matters as long as we get what we want."

Hopefully, November 3rd will wash this all away.
