It was to be expected.

Shameful. Are they hoping to ride out the storm or hoping someone else will do their jobs for them?

That can't be good, Cozie. How can they not be able to calculate it?

Republicans are still trying to pretend it's business as usual in Washington. Wonder whose bright idea that was?

lionheart · 17/05/2017 21:24

Clarke is a perfect Trump ally.

Orlantina · 17/05/2017 21:31

What gets me is how he assumes that everyone agrees with him.

If you were at an event like graduating as a Coastguard and Trump said stuff like that, would it even be allowed to boo?

People don't in practice, though. In America, the Presidency is HUGE. It's difficult to overestimate how MASSIVE it is to consider impeachment - even for 45. Across, for example, might be in some difficulty if he turned up on her doorstep flanked by Secret Service. (If she looked into her heart of hearts.) As soon as he left, of course............Grin

In the UK, we're used to seeing politicians come and politicians go. Not so over there.

Clever. Smile

GingerIvy · 17/05/2017 21:47

Others saying that's not accurate re Lawrence O'Donnell. Guess we wait and see

cozietoesie · 17/05/2017 21:47

Sorry - that was to the ACLU request.

O'Donnell's contract is up in early June isn't it? I guess the fix was put in and they won't renew without protest.
