Repubs need to hang together - especially those 41 in the Senate.

And a clever incoming House Speaker might have a chat with our young president, inquiring if the president wants to get ANYTHING done in the next two years.

I believe they will hold together. The session is only for like a month, and WE will need to hold their feet to the fire, but after the shallacking the Dems take in November, the Repubs should have all the political backbone they need to block everything attempted during this lame-duck session.

Personally, I’m not too worried about it.

What a strong Speaker of the House would say is, "Thank you for your opinion Mr. President, but according to the U.S. Constitution, it is the Legislative Branch that has the power to create law. Your responsibilities and powers are clearly enumerated within the same document, and I would highly encourage that you take the time to read it."
