Maria Shriver Tells Off Trump

The only downside, of course, is the horrifying phrase “President J D Vance” (who’ll probably bring in his sugar daddy, Peter Thiel, to finish the job that fElon Muskrat started and then bailed on).
There IS a chance that, without Drumpf, the GOP in Congress might develop something similar to a spine but, then again, pretty much every single time in the past 50 years when a GOP president has had a GOP Congress, they’ve still rubber-stamped everything he wanted done. During Reagan’s first term, the GOP wrested control of the Senate for the first time in over 30 years but couldn’t manage to gain the House but the Senate GOP still did their best to approve all of Reagan’s desires (House Democrats managed to thwart the worst of Reagan’s plans but Reagan was still able to work with Tip O’Neill well enough to get some level of compromise that still leaned more to Reagan’s wants; that was an era when the GOP President and the Democratic Speaker of the House could get together over drinks and dinner with a level of mutual respect). Then, during Dubya’s first term (and partly into the second), Congress under GOP control largely rolled over and gave him (under Cheney’s watchful eye) virtually everything he “wanted.” Same thing during Drumpf’s first term; GOP Congress largely just gave him everything he wanted with little objection and now, they’ve largely ceded most of their own Constitutionally-mandated powers to Drumpf (like puppy dogs rolling over for belly rubs from their master/owner).
Meanwhile, Carter and Clinton both largely had to fight their own party members in Congress to get anything done (Congressional Democrats largely hated the “outsiders” foisted on them) and during Obama’s terms–when he had Democrats in charge of Congress, whether both houses or just one–he still had members of his own party who fought him, almost tooth and nail. Granted, during election years, Obama actually sanctioned their runs without his endorsement or support, especially in purple or red areas; there were so many Democrats in those areas who said their votes had been “forced” and they really were “independent” and trying to “represent their constituents’ values” against Obama and blah-blah-blah and most of them went down to defeat as local Democrats were disgusted (because these same people ran in their primaries as “supporters of the President) and local GOPers and GOP candidates would run the Democrats’ primary ads to attack their “independence.”
