Robert Reich: "This morning I phoned my old friend, a Republican former member of Congress...."

73. I think they believe a tax bill will give them more leeway to ditch him.

I believe they feel this is their "cover" for dumping him. It's totally baffling to me that they don't realize that they could get their damn so-called 'tax reform' done with Pence in place just as easily (if not more so) as they with could with Twitler. Actually, the cabinet members could alone bring about the invocation of the 25th Amendment. Congress's craven behavior in the midst of this chaotic, demented depravity running amok would be staggering if it wasn't so infuriating. This guy is nuts. They may not have fully realized what a big bag of hair 'rump is, but they clearly do now. I believe they thought they could keep him leashed and muzzled for the most part by WW staffers, but this guy is a rogue agent and a psychopathic one to boot. His stupidity is almost unbelievable and matched only by his total lack of humanity. I don't put anything, and I mean anything past this guy at this point. He doesn't give a shit about the rest of the world (or for that matter, about US citizens), and I think he believes he'll just crawl into some secured underground bunker and just wait out the nuclear mushroom clouds believing that when he emerges everything won't have been totally destroyed with a nuclear winter coming. Bye bye Mar 'a Lago.
