What’s incredible is that Trump is doing this based on fake constitutional authorities and made-up emergency powers but because US institutions are so pathetic about capitulating to him no one even thinks of bringing that up, even as he burns our country to the ground

So the world suffers economic chaos because a maniacal narcissist takes counsel from a con man who fabricated the so-called economic expert on whose insights he was purportedly drawing. To quote the noted political scientist Reg Dwight, "It's funny how one insect can damage so much grain."

The president declares a bogus emergency — no emergency exists. This confers on the president powers normally forbidden to him. Using those powers, he wreaks havoc on the country. Congress should be targeting the false emergency and put the madman in a straitjacket.

Corporate media would be a hundred times as outraged by this breach of decorum as they have been about the daily constitutional crises and illegal closures that have actually cost human lives already.

Which is all the more reason to do it, honestly.
I actually think the dems should attend the SOTU, wait till the 2nd sentence, and then walk out en masse, that'll do it, there'll be no address, he'll just have a meltdown on national Tv

I told my niece over the phone that my son has flu-like symptoms and I hear my sister in the background say, "Have you tried euthanasia?" and I hear my niece yell, "For the last time Mom, it's echinacea!"

Remember this from Elizabeth Warren. A reminder to the oligarchs who think they own us:

“There is nobody in this country who got rich on their own. Nobody. You built a factory out there - good for you. But I want to be clear. You moved your goods to market on roads the rest of us paid for…

It's unfathomable where the scandal bar will be set for this Trump administration in that virtually everything they're doing would have been covered as scandalous in any other presidency.
