#1 A pox on Graham and these UniParty bastids! Trump has every right to end this kabuki dance any time he pleases. He's not one of them and they simply refuse to get behind the man.

Donald is a better man than me. I would have told them to stick the job up their crooked, lazy arses a long time ago.

#2 Trump has every right to end this kabuki dance any time he pleases.

I thinks his biggest problem is that he wants to restore the constitutional republic he was born in - which, in particular, makes him too respectful of the forms of it.

Trump is a successful business man, and now successful politician. For the most part, the UniParty is a cadre of losers who have sat around with the thumbs up their arses for decades pissing away other peoples money (OPM).

#5 They are gambling we will be come demoralized and return to accepting business as usual. Like myself, many I talk with are not demoralized but sullenly annoyed and pondering how to oppose business as usual.

#6 Can they consitutionally do that? I mean Trump is the head of the Executive branch.

Perhaps Trump should respond by firing a few Congressmen and Senators. Just to make the point.

#7 A definite unconstitutional infringement on the separation of powers between the Executive, Legislative, and Judiciary.

I think Graham knows that it would be struck down before the ink was dry. He's grandstanding for the constitutionally ignorant and RINOs that elected him.

#8 I decided not to post it as an article so here it is:
AP: Zuckerberg working with Mueller

As for the federal Russia probe that has occupied much of Washington’s attention for months, he said he had not been interviewed by special counsel Mueller’s team, but “I know we’re working with them.” He offered no details, citing a concern about confidentiality rules of the investigation.

Earlier this year Mueller charged 13 Russian individuals and three Russian companies in a plot to interfere in the 2016 presidential election through a social media propaganda effort that included online ad purchases using U.S. aliases and politicking on U.S. soil. A number of the Russian ads were on Facebook.

#9 #7 Graham is grandstanding. SC should be able to do better than Graham.
