What on earth does anyone need a Republican congress for?

Um... To Repeal ObamaCare and Dodd-Frank? To abolish the CFPB? To reform the tax code? To appoint conservative justices? To rebuild the military? To team up with Russia and destroy ISIS?

Read the Constitution. The American president does not rule by decree. He needs congress!

If Trump wins, and the GOP loses the congress, then, for the next two years, Trump's persuasion skills will meet their ultimate test. Can he talk over the heads of congress and the MSM and persuade the people to throw the bums out in 2018 and give him a congress he can work with? Will the American people be that patient? Or will they give up and go gimmee Progressive, making Trump a one-termer?

Those things would be lovely, but I have no idea at all why you think a Republican congress would do anything of the sort.

I further have no idea why you think that a Republican congress would work with Trump in any way or do anything that their base thinks they will do or expects them to do.

Here’s what I think is going to happen.

The media is going to take every opportunity to manufacture outrage and tempests in a teapot against Trump, just as they have attempted to do since the day he announced and have continued to do through last night in saying that he committed political suicide at the debate.

And as soon as the sniveling, scurrying rats of congress, Democrat and Republican, think that enough outrage has been generated, they will turn on him just as they did with the grab ‘em by the pussy audio tape, only this time they will impeach him and remove him from office.

And to be quite frank, the only way that doesn’t happen is if we march up there real angry like and stop them.

If we succeed in electing Trump, we are going to be at war with our own government for the foreseeable future, and it is not going to be pretty.

They do not want to give up power. It is going to have to be taken from them.
