8. the mid-terms, of themselves, won't.....

Jan 2018

they'll stop some dangerous legislation and appointments (I hope, but not too strongly...), but they won't stop his unhinged reactions to global events. The only way that would happen is if Mueller finds something strong enough to convince enough repuglkans to come to their senses to support impeachment and removal. (I don't see that happening.) Other option would be via the 25th Amendment. Not sure I could see that happening either.

But hope springs eternal.....
