Sum total of this week's news: This is going to take a long time, and by then, 45 will already be ou

out of office. This is potus by courtroom, no matter which way it goes. It's what 45's lawyers know: How to stall and bill, stall and bill.

The only question is, how will his base react? Will they run and elect someone even worse, who they think will be his vindication?

And it's only wednesday.

A house of cards falls very quickly when one particular card is removed. When Kushner or Don, Jr. get indicted, the speed of events will increase very rapidly.

And he might even survive his term and he SHOULD definitely be voted out of office along with all the other thugs that support him in the Congress or those who are too lily-livered to stand up for the Constitution. But regardless of his staying in office the duration of his term or not, he should ABSOLUTELY be held accountable for his crimes. He and all his crooked friends.

The Thug in Chief has done mighty harm to this republic, but but we can and absolutely should make him pay the steepest price the Constitution allows for his crimes. And we should rebuild the Republic stronger so thugs can no longer wield such destructive force on it.
