Donald Trump's administration needs to be stopped, blocked, and shut down completely

[CousinIT]

On Nov. 8, America showed us that it is mad. No, not mad as in angry. Mad as in losing our goddamn mind. We—well, some of us—elected a lying narcissist sociopath bigot to the most powerful position in the world. There were various reasons this happened: fear, economics, and frustration were among them. Yet there is one reason cited specifically by Trump supporters that takes the cake for the worst.

But first, here’s a rundown of the completely bonkers and/or clearly unconstitutional ideas that he floated during the campaign—from his Muslim ban and registry; to his deportation force; to the “beautiful” wall; and the NATO shakedown; plus advocating for “worse than torture” or committing mass-murder and war crimes on the innocent families of suspect terrorists; and don’t forget the national installation of stop-and-frisk; and top it off with stealing health care away from 22 million Americans.

What’s nuttier than all of that is his voters believed that Congress just won’t let him get away with any of this stuff.

The Congress that led us straight off the fiscal cliff and got our national credit rating downgraded? The Congress that wouldn’t pass a budget for nearly six years? The Congress that has left the Supreme Court with only eight members for nearly a year? The Congress that held eight different investigations of Benghazi? The Congress that now averages more than 120 filibusters per year? The Congress that voted to repeal the Affordable Care Act upwards of 50 times? The Congress that hasn’t even begun to reauthorize the Voting Rights Act following the Shelby v. Holder decision from 2013? The Congress that refused to come out with a bipartisan statement in opposition to Russia hacking our election in order to favor Donald Trump?

There are people who admit they know that Trump’s ideas are completely nucking futz. But they voted for him anyway because they hope members of Congress will be the reasonable ones?

1. Do you mean the Congress that writes letters to Iran condemning our President?

3. US Congress: They're worse than useless - they're deadly. "Needs to be" doesn't mean "Will be"

unfortunately.
