What does a TRUMP presidency look like?

A third White House staffer has tested possitive, Ivanka's personal assistant, as well as 11 secret service agents.

TRUMP: "Katie, she tested very good for a long period of time, and then all of the sudden she tested positive ... this is why the whole concept of tests aren't necessarily great ... today, I guess, for some reason, she tested positive."

Please. Stop. Talking.

I think the quote makes it sound more dumb than it was.  I think the whole clip makes it clear that Trump seems to recognize that viral infections are not something you're born with.

Why do you hate Trump?

Trump in overdrive, retweeting dozens of posts all day from around the right wing blogosphere about how the Russia investigation was a hoax, how the traitors should be prosecuted and the Democrats are the real bad guys, plus other assorted nonsense.

Because that's what's important right now.

Remember that Trump's own supporters in blind studies concede that he is narcissistic and a bully, but that that's not what is important right now, or ever.  What's important is that libruls get pwned, no matter the consequences.

Shortly after Trump spoke, the scope of the Republican election attack became even more clear as Republican Sen. Chuck Grassley of Iowa pressed the conspiracy theory on the Senate floor.

"The rule of law is at risk if the federal government can get away with violating the Constitution to do what they did to Lt. Gen. Flynn," said Grassley. "Given all that we know now regarding the fake foundation to the inquiry, it's time we asked: What did Obama and Biden know and when did they know it?"

I look forward to years of senate investigations that go nowhere but will become a common talking point for Republicans *cough*Benghazi*cough*

Obama? Hadn't he been out of office for years by this point?

As if that's going to slow them down.

The right wing nutjob narrative, as I understand it, is that Obama used the deep state apparatchiks of FBI/CIA/NBA/CPU/FAQ/BBQ/BYOB to illegally investigate/undermine Trump's campaign while he was still in office which led to the treasonous Mueller investigation hoax, Flynn's interrogation etc.

So naïve, everyone knows Obama is just the puppet of the Soros Jewish banking conspiracy.

Is launching an investigation of something illegal? I also don't get how that would be a Constitutional issue, where in the Constitution does it talk about investigations?

If the Constitution doesn't grant the power to investigate then you can't. It's the same reason a sitting President cannot go to the bathroom.

A President should go to the bathroom standing, like God and the Constitution intended.
