If we don't get back to calling things what they are, they're going to normalize every bad behavior acted out since the days of the cavemen. Bannon's not on trumps special list any longer, and he's desperately trying to get back to the front of the line by speaking up for a "third term."

Gods, I want back the rule of law and I want all these idiots, traitors, and criminals thrown in jail for so long everyone forgets their names.
