They just need somebody to sign their bills. Of course, there aren't too many bills to sign these days, but he's still nominating the worst judges his people can find, so he's all right in their eyes. As long as he's signing the papers, they'll let him make a spectacle of himself. They want to destroy the government anyway.

Look at the people he has appointed to various agencies. They are either inept or have an issue with that agency or both. Ben Carson is the best example. I don't even think he knows what HUD is or what it does, but he is on our payroll.

It will take generations to get these hardcore righties out, and the precedents they set will last well beyond their time on Earth.

There is SOMETHING wrong here. No, you cannot "arm-chair" a medical diagnosis, but taken as a whole, there is something medically (specifically, neurological) wrong with the man. As someone who has suffered strokes and had family members do same, there is no mistaking the slurring of speech, the twisting of words, the trembling hands, the inability to walk down stairs or inclines with ease, the shuffling, the constant sniffing (which I think is a side effect of some medication, not saying it's legally-prescribed), the confusion which cannot be disguised.

The last time the nation ignored an ill president, we got Edith Wilson running the country. (Yes, I'll accept that Nancy Reagan might have done the same.) And WHO needs that ? Not us and not now.
