I heard some dumb-ass Democrat talking about how president trump is demeaning a CO equal branch of government. The problem is the House of Representatives is only one half of one of the coequal branches of government it is in no way by itself coequal to the office of the president. Only when taken in Toto with the senate are tbe upper and lower chambers = the president in status.

Regardless of eauality the executive branch has the sole authority to execute policy with out express permission of the other branches of government because it is “the executive” Branch. It is the only portion of government that is able to execute policy. Get over it Nancy... you represent a portion of but one of the two bicameral houses of the United States Congress and not even the whole House of Representatives... which is in fact the lower house.
Using Executive emergency powers, almost any action can be carried out by the President without initially having permission of the legislative or the judicial branch...

Elections have consequences Nan. Get used to it is it’s getting ready to happen again and this time you won’t be elected speaker of the house even if by some stretch of the imagination you were able to retain a majority you’ll no longer be in charge of the next House of Representatives majority.

If they would stop campaigning and actually legislate, he might treat them as equals.

This is all part of the Coup attempt. It didn’t happened with Brennan and others, it didn’t happen with Stormy, it didn’t happen with the women he knew before he was elected, it didn’t happen with the Mueller investigation. It won’t happen with the Ukraine investigation. Now they have a new outrage: Bring troops out of a war zone while the Neocon Left needs the endless wars. It never ends with this corruption
