The ripping sound you are hearing is that of yet another paper tiger succumbing to berserk Trump mode.Instead of hollow rhetoric, why donāt you big bad,apparently toothless Senators get together and end the enabling of this disgraceful chapter in American history. Your constituents will deeply appreciate the effort.

Maybe because the motivation is something other than a desire and hope heāll take it.

So what will the next mean girl Tweet ala ā. Flake Jeff Flakeā be? Not cool Cole? No self control Cole? Beat him at the polls Cole? The immature one must be readying his stubby little fingers.
Good lines by Cole and he is correct but, I would prefer some action. It is obvious trump is unfit, over his head and a general buffoon but most importantly, a danger to the democracy and needs to go ASAP. The GOP needs to act . Once Mueller does is no time to say , āsee, I told ya!ā, it wonāt work.

Itās a nice place to visitāNorman and Tulsa especially, with an embattled liberal minority that is truly special. But itās basically a feudal state, with all-powerful oil barons playing the role of the barons of old, and corrupt preachers leveraging the ignorance and obeisance of the common folk. Most Oklahomans appear have a true serf mentality, submitting to inequality, educational breakdown and even seismicity out of a profound acceptance that this is the natural order of things. Very strange place indeed.

Useless complaint? Meet deaf ears. Theyāre generally located above tiny fingers.

If Senators donāt want to be treated like contestants in The Apprentice, they should stop behaving like one. But they have sold their dignity for a chance at tax cuts.
McConnell especially could have stopped or even prevented this charade of a Presidency long ago.

I think NOTUS works. Nothing of the US, not US, etc. works in so many ways where trump in concerned.

Posturing within the post-Trump GOP Ragnarok hellscape, perhaps. Those who gently but firmly gave Trump good political advice and warned him not to overstep his bounds will be pitched against those who were always against him (at least rhetorically).

Itās a baby step but in the right direction - same for my SC senators. They SHOULD be ridiculing Trump for acting like the presidency is a reality show - then they should explain why it has taken so long for them to speak up.

Sure. These people arenāt stupid, unless theyāre Inhofe, and they know perfectly well how things will go. So they lay down markers now and when the inevitable happens they can say, "I was saying as early as [ add date and cite] that while I supported President Trump as a loyal American and member of my party, I was increasingly concerned and troubled by [list of concerns, things you were troubled by, and things you thought were unwise]. With these new revelations I have no choice but to [whateverās expedient].
And so forth. They probably have these statements preloaded on the office computers as a set of templates when your staff moves in.

Thanks for the link. Eye opening item - sounds like there was a race between Kansas and Oklahoma between which state could break itself and its citizens first. Thankfully there has been the start of a reversal in Kansas. I highly recommend this article.

Cole had a cordial relationship with president Obama, so he will be first ignored, then primaried by Trump.

Yeah, but not performed this incompetently.
He learned about DACA this week; soon heāll learn about RICO.
