re: #194 wheat-dogg

We would be in worse trouble if they weren’t so incompetent at becoming autocrats. It’s like watching a roomful of people with their hair on fire. Trump did what I expected — he fired Yates — but the backlash will far outweigh his intended goal. While Trump and his mouthpiece Spicer called her an Obama appointee, in fact she was appointed by W Bush and re-appointed by Obama. Republicans in DC will know this and see exactly what kind of nutcase they’re dealing with.

Absolutely. Replace Trump with Ted Cruz — younger, and with a semblance of discipline and methodology to administer such despotic madness.

That’s a horror story even Stephen King would be afraid to write up.
