GOP controls all three branches and the only thing it's been able to do outside of EO's is push Gorsuch through by reverting to the nuclear option. Stay hot.

 

That description of Shelby County is a joke, and beneath you.

 

Actually, what's beneath me is my pretending that you actually have a philosophy. But I'm in a generous place these days.

 

Trump is bragging about these ...

 

Probably stocking up on those awesome Canadian dairy products.

 

To be fair - in all these instances Trump did manage to write his name without help.

 

Luckily for them, the other side is even more unhinged and ineffectual.

 

These "Presidential Accomplishments" bits, regardless of who the President is, really strain the bounds of ... decency, I suppose.

My very-partisan BIL, early in the days of Clinton's first term, did a "A-B-C's of President Clinton's First 100 Days"* kind of a thing and managed to get his local metro to publish it. Then some local party guy forwarded it up the chain and got Clinton to sign a copy of it, so of course it's framed and occupying a prominent spot in BIL's house.

Now, before anyone thinks my distaste was partisan, at the time the thing went up I had voted for Clinton (and would again). Still, even then, every time I saw that thing I'd shudder, thinking to myself, "Man, don't you have any self-respect?"

*Z was (I kid you not) "Zero recognition from Rush Limbaugh."
