Looks like this is the way both parties are handling his most recent outlandish stunt - for now.

Miller will see to that. Once the Constitution is dissolving, it's just a picnic lunch to abolish all the other relations we developed in the colonial time period. The Netherlands, Dutch bankers, Spain, and France lent the US money to help fund our Revolutionary War. Our oldest allies!!

This was a bipartisan delegation, but short on the Republican side.

He is out of control and Congress needs to put on the brakes. An impeachment after the fact won't help; the damage will be done.

And I totally agree this has to be even worse than everything he's done before - which was already worse than any president in history - he's turning this country into an international pariah! Congress needs to act PDQ!!!
