Showing Original Post only (View all)The largest and most dangerous cover-up in history is happening right now... [View all]
It's not hyperbole. If what the anonymous OpEd said is true, many working directly for tRump and members of his cabinet are knowingly working for someone they know is not fit for the office. They know his amorality, they know his darkest impulses and they know his complete ineptitude. Not only that, many have actively subverted tRump's orders, including military leaders.
It's in essence a coup of sorts and tRump isn't running the country. We should find comfort in that he is being contained to a degree, but then again we should be alarmed.
People who were never elected or on any ballot for the position are making decisions that impact this country.

But that was prior to the 25th admendment. There was no procedure to deal with it in Wilson's time.

It's not comforting...but, it's good that they recognize that the GOP are not doing their jobs.

Dangerous, yes, but letting the elected official make the decisions would be even more dangerous.
