So, what is the straw that breaks the camels back? What will actually get people to pay attention to these vast actions he's taking?
It's maddening to see this happen and it feels like people are just continuing on as if nothing is wrong.

Trump is openly violating the law on a vast and unprecedented scale and everyone is acting like it's normal. NPR had a long story about finding a rare shrew.
