Every member of the Senate must realize that the vote he or she casts on "impeachment" is going to be the fulcrum of his or her next reelection campaign. >
That means making a serious assessment of what the pundits are saying about what your constituency thinks not only about Donald Trump but what is going on in Congress now, the integrity of that deeply damaged institution and what government's priorities should be. >
In order to do that, members of the Senate need to listen, not merely to their staffs and their usual DC-based sources of Conventional Wisdom, but to real people in the real world - and that includes the world outside the United States. >
@mitchellreports@SenTedCruz Meanwhile thousands of your culturally illiterate followers who, like you, think of themselves as members of the intellectual elite are RT'ing and liking your hilariously ignorant gaffe.
Maybe it was better when Twitter didn't coddle you huh
I've started uploading my January #carshmooze (car shmooze) morning videos to my formerly very sleepy YouTube channel (thanks to @RAFrenzy for her help!)
There are so many things @realDonaldTrump has had the power to do, and that have been raised publicly and presumably privately, over the last (let's just say) six months

that we are left with two possibilities. >
1. Something else is going to happen that does not fit any of the standard narratives or any precedent;
or,
2. Trump is ineffectual, timid or as stupid as his enemies say, or a combination of all of these.
Choose one. >
I know you've heard this from me many times before. But it's one or the other.
I'll have been wrong about a *great deal* if either (1) or (2) is the right answer. But far more if it's (2). And if it is, shame on all of us. <>
