..and yet as pessimistic as I am I still manage to be shocked and disappointed on a regular basis.

Let's hope you're right and I'll be pleasantly surprised.

I'm not in the crowd that wants Trump impeached. I see zero difference between him and Pence except that one puts a politically correct "serious Washington" face on it. I want Trump to stay on and hang around their necks like a rotting albatross carcass.
