In reply to the discussion: Does anyone have any faith that Trump's cabinet or Paul Ryan or Mitch McConnell can keep Trump in [View all]FreeStateDemocrat
(2,654 posts)41. First, who the fuck is going to keep Ryan and Turtleman in check???
NOBODY, bottom-line, we are truly screwed, blued and tattooed, game-over, piss on the admiral and call in all the boats, we lost.
Hillary not only lost the election but she destroyed the Democratic party and the future for our county.
Everyone knew she was a badly flawed candidate but nobody stepped up since the fix was in and she had the nomination by default!
Biden left our country down when he declined to run, one of the worse decisions in the history of the USA, Munich comes to mind as comparable with perhaps the same level of catastrophic consequences.

I hate to say this-- but it seems like we will need some sort of extra-constitutional measure

I hope people lower down the totem pole will refuse, too, but I'm just unsure as to whether that's

Well, Obama has had eight years to take their guns away, so why hasn't he?
