Will an honorable party in congress stand up with a spine to stop all of this? Are we going to have to wait a full two years, for the country to vote out members of congress, to see how much damage he can do to our system by taking a criminal’s approach to vendetta, to transactional-real estate diplomacy? This is a truly shameful display of an absence of congressional independence, of the execution of our system of checks and balances.

Just look at one day’s headlines.
