Our government is not an entertainment enterprise.
I don't give a flying fuck about the network ratings that the MSM is pumping by giving the traitor in the White House
permission, or in the case of Faux news, basically daring the traitor to become an autocrat and break with the constitutional acknowledgement of Congress as an equal branch of the government.
