I propose we adopt and use a new acronym: "IBIWISI".

"I'll Believe It When I See It".

It could save time when responding to those who insist that Trump will be arrested soon or that Bannon will serve time for ignoring a Congressional subpoena or S1 will be passed in time to level the playing field for the midterm elections or BBB will be signed into law this year.

There is plenty that is good that has already been accomplished, but predictions that are amended every week or so are eroding what should be favorable opinions of this administration. When something ACTUALLY happens, by all means tell me about it. But, as for optimistic predictions----

"IBIWISI"
