I agree John, the Dems should sit back and let the executive orders fail like they were inevitably bound to do. If Trump solved the problem, great, where's the unemployment money? When should everyone be expecting their check? Got a specific date for that payment, my landlord is asking?
How many weeks of no money arriving until it's obvious that Trump once again did nothing and claimed it was a perfect solution. When nothing actually happens, he's still going to be on the hook.
So much of the GOP mythology has been shown to be just that...a myth, vaporware. I would urge people to read Stuart Stevens' new book "It Was All A Lie", chronicling the implosion of the GOP and the hollowness of GOP 'values'. Stevens was a very high-level Republican strategist, responsible for electing untold numbers of governors, senators, and presidents. He is unsparing, even with his own former delusions about the party. He ends the book stating that he not only recognizes that the current GOP leadership is completely devoid of conservative values but also of common decency.
John, as an aside, please consider what my friend said to me yesterday during a text exchange... “Independent journalists are not beholden to ethics boards. They are important, but I prefer institutional checks and balances. Besides, if you are a freelance journalist, you answer to clicks and advertising like anybody else. It is easier to buy off independent journalists than well-established news organizations that have long-term reputations to uphold.” What would you say to that? Thanks.
