PELOSI: "For POTUS to say... I don't need Congress & I know more about what's happening in the world than the intelligence community... that's a cause for concern, & I would hope Republicans would either have an intervention w/him about that, or take some congressional action."

She's putting the pressure where it belongs...on the Republicans who have enabled and run interference for Trump.

I truly believe no other person could be succeeding so brilliantly as our Speaker.

And it's not to keep her job which is what motivates most politicians to act

In politics and parenting.

Speaker/Gramdma Nancy knows how to handle a traitor and a child throwing a tantrum.

It's funny watching him scramble but it is not funny watching Trump scramble to stay in the center of attention to throw his tantrums. We and the media should just ignore him because that is all he wants - the center of attention.

and neither are the repugs in congress.

There's a much more capable intelligence/command/control network that is working these morons.

Some may be US based and some are probably in the land where chess is an epitome of a war game.

Dump and his ilk could not even play slap-jack successfully.
