As president I suspect that McConnell and Boehner would become so marginalized that they would step down from their leadership positions if not resign their seats altogether.


I think the superman poster with Ted’s face photoshopped in has given you a false impression. Like it or not, and though we haven’t seen this in awhile, Congress (McConnell and Boehner) is an equal branch of government. What’s Ted going to do, write a bunch of executive orders to circumvent them? We’ve already seen that movie.

I realize that a lot of you clowns who crawled up out of the slime to attack Ted Cruz aren't terribly bright but It doesn't take a genius to understand that McConnell and Boehner themselves aren't congress. They're two congressmen who are no more or less than any other congressman and there is no constitutional requirement for a president to go to them if they want to deal with congress.

Maybe you messianic Trumpites should explain why you think congress is just going to roll over and let Saint Donald do as he pleases.
