they've already put out all the red meat to the base that they can on immigration, foreign policy with the russians / middle east policy, hobby lobby etc so this is the political 'hail mary' pass since the election polls are still unchanged with the Dems leading +2. Are they nutty enough to hijack the country for 3-4 months for blatant political gain before a mid term election? This 'throw it against the wall' approach and see what sticks is not governance, its madness
