Donald Trump to America: I Won, Accountability Is Over http://nymag.com/daily/intelligencer/2017/01/donald-trump-to-america-i-won-accountability-is-over.html?mid=twitter-share-di "Donald Trump’s first press conference since the summer was a surreal exercise in the assertion of immunity from accountability. He either ignored questions about his behavior, or dismissed the questions as illegitimate. He painted a chilling depiction of politics not as an ongoing process but as a one-time event, settled in his favor by the presidential campaign, once and for all." |

Trump is a constitutional crisis incarnate but the Republican majority in Congress, marinated in hypocrisy as they are, will give him a pass for as long they possibly can. When will you realize that? :oyvey :oyvey :oyvey :oyvey

He won't avoid the Constitutional crises. He will ignore it. It's up to Congress and the Courts to step up and do their job. If they ignore their job they are derelict in their duties and should be considered as accomplices to treason if not actual traitors in their own right.

Yes, but Trump's new SCOTUS will launch decisions that will cause liberals to think the Constitution has been rewritten..............

Wittingly or not it is becoming more and more obvious @RealDonaldTrump is a Russian pawn. https://www.google.com/amp/s/amp.cnn.com/cnn/2017/01/11/politics/trump-ties-with-russia/index.html … |

Only Certainly Not News would conclude that Trump is a Russian spy based on the sale of a house and a beauty contest.

Will you be threatening the Congress and the court now? |

Unlikely...Democrats neither control the Congress or courts....For liberals, the Constitution is destined to look horrible to them...........

Threatening? How is pointing out that they are refusing to do the job they were elected to do threatening? By the way. On Friday, Trump will officially become in violation of the Constitution. Just pointing that out to you. |
