should be suspended, until they come up with SENSIBLE solutions to this mess the stupid president has caused. No matter how they slice it, this is TRUMP'S fault. He has no idea what the duties of a president are, nor does he care. He makes money from ignoring the emoluments clause, with his businesses and that is his main objective. Easiest, most lucrative gig he has ever had.
