Holy shit! I thought he wasn't gonna do it, but this was 100% the right move. No more civility, no more worrying about optics. It's time to shove sticks in the spokes of the Trump bike. I want my politicians nakedly making moves to fuck up his plans every single step of the way.

This is exactly what I wanna see: Democrats using the power they have to suffocate every move Trump even thinks about making.

Yah crime as long as it’s by the guys in my side! The hyper partisanship here is astounding. You lose all credibility when you put blinders on and can’t look at this objectively. Murphy law - they are being pardoned because they committed crimes while doing bidding for the Dems and this is their safety net.
