Those “institutions” managed to destroy themselves over the past few decades.

Yeah, Joe, then why was it OK when obama himself criticized both? I guess it’s only “dangerous” when Pubs do it, hey, Joe?

Yup. The University of Pennsylvania gave him a no-show faculty job.

Shut up slow Joe, the courts and media hand brought this on themselves. Mostly by Colluding with your dumb ass so openly.

Of course the democrats want to treat their true (and currently only) sources of power as being sacrosanct.

You sure? I thought he was going to pick up where Sandusky left off.

But attacks on the integrity and legitimacy of the President, the Attorney General, and any Justices or judges nominated by the President are perfectly alright.
