Donald Trump and the Republicans are in charge of everything.
Democrats cannot be blamed for anything that happens in our government, at least for the next two years.
In my opinion, that is the narrative that we should promote for the next two years. Whatever happens, it's Trump and the Republicans fault.
It's not a position we prefer to be but it is where we are.

Trump is 100% immune to fault, blame, or culpability. There's no scandal he can't pin on an expendable subordinate, and they're ALL expendable except for Melon Husk. Even news shows that might try to tell the truth are too scared of reprisals now. Anything short of smearing his own feces on the walls of the Oval Office will be seen as savvy political genius and "Making America Great"...😒
