A weird "West Wing" thought

Had any of Trump's inner circle simply binge watched "The West Wing," they would have gotten a set of lessons on how government works. Granted, it's sort of a Cliff Notes edition but at least they would have some understanding of Government. Plus, they would have had a couple hundred hours of entertainment that would have kept them from plotting with the Russians.

As it is, Trump's administration and the GOP legislatures are inept and ignorant. Maybe, in the end, that's a good thing if it limits the damage they could do to our country.

They will continue to push, stretch and exploit those limits, now, in an attempt to do their damage, before the tide (hopefully) turns, next year.
