Chief Justice John Roberts has heard enough and drawn a line in the sand. Is this the signal for Trump to start packing up his circus?
@kmax87 saidExcept he won't listen to Roberts, either.

@suzianne saidYes. Like Apple's reality distortion field where they can convince customers to pay more for less, Trump's reality distortion field says, no long held convention matters, he as President is empowered to do as he pleases and tear down any institution in his wake.

@kmax87 saidYep, as well it should. Some long-held traditions should remain and for clear reasons. Corruption is insidious and once it starts, it is so difficult to root out entirely.

But at least if Trump won't take the responsibility for the buck stopping at his desk, maybe Chief Justice Rober ...[text shortened]... s of American democratic traditions and institutions and laws, the buck will definitely stop at his.
@suzianne saidWell said. He only wants to build one wall. Every other wall that proves to be an obstacle to his authoritarian impulses, he is more than happy to tear down..

@kmax87 saidThe short answer is "NO" Most Presidents would have enough respect for the rule of law to listen to Justice Roberts, this one however sees everyone from Congressmen, Senators, Judges, and everyone else as his personal lacky's, placed on earth to do "The Donald's" bidding, and ONLY "The Donald's" bidding.

Serious question.
Will RBG make it another two years?

@sonhouse saidCheers! So many TLA's, so little time.

I think Trump will never get his wall and he is threatening to shut down government in his zeal to do just that. I see if he DOES get the wall, it will be another Berlin moment waiting to happen, SOMEONE will say a few years from now, 'TEAR DOWN THAT WALL' and insert a name, maybe Trump if he 'shudder' gets re-e ...[text shortened]... IG message to the GOP and Trump but Trump just doesn't get it. Which will be a good thing come 2020.
