First of all, please don’t use profanity. This isn’t du.
And yes, Congress plays a critical role. But we have seen how zero, using executive orders, has usurped the law at every turn. A conservative president could rescind ALL of those eo’s. A rino or zero in a second term would only mean more of the same or worse.

Well, if it's good enough for WFB, then it's ok for FR. You do know who WFB was, don't you? Reagan did.
November 18,1969 Dear Mr. Buckley: How do you square your "goddams" with your Catholicism? Are you really blaspheming (which I tend to doubt), or is there some distinction between "goddam" (NR) and "God damn" with which I'm not familiar? If so, I'd be interested to know how one makes this distinction in the spoken word; also, to have your definition and understanding of "goddam," not in my dictionary. Ann Jones New York Hilton Hotel Dear Miss Jones: No. I am not really blaspheming, or in any case, do not mean to be blaspheming, blaspheming being one of those things I am against. "Goddam" is nowadays simple expletive, an intensifier. It is that by cultural usage. In the most cloistered convent in Catholic Spain, you will hear from the venerable lips of an aged nun, 'Jesus Mary and Joseph, I forgot my umbrella!" "I would pray hard to his Maker to save his soule notwithstanding all his God-damnes," a writer is quoted by the Oxford English Dictionary as saying in 1647, back when they were fighting religious wars. Three hundred years later, the American Heritage Dictionary of the English Language lists "God damn" and "goddam" as "a profane [i.e., a-religious] oath, once a strong one invoking God's curse, now a general exclamation ... used as an intensive." -- WFB
