Congress engages in gridlock on the belief that the voters will be more angry if they legislate than if they do nothing.
If you believe in the Deep State, surely you believe in the Illuminati.

That's about what your State Media masters predicted for Nov. '16. How did that work out for you, Nostradamus
The repubs hardly have any senate seats up for grabs in '18 compared to the dems. At least do your homework before misinforming your fellow dems
Read my post again, dopey.
Your posts are hilarious. No thought whatsoever.

I just makes you a bigger loser...a loser by a larger margin...than Hillary voters.
Get over it, it happened. It's history now and he is your lawfully elected POTUS.
Congress doesn't give a damn.most are re-elected no matter what they do/don't do.
The Deep State is extant. The illuminati ..what the hell is that?

Please do find that embarrassing post of mine where I claimed he wasn't my lawfully elected POTUS.

Every trumper is a N4T.
You're so empty headed all you can do is gloat over Trump's hollow "victory".
We who supported the superior contender take great solace in Trump's anguish and embarrassment.
He will never enjoy or be proud of his tenure in office, no matter how long it does or doesn't last.
And the shorter it does, the better for everyone, including him.

Most Americans Believe Trump Committed Felony by Hindering Russia Probe According to Poll
In the past few weeks, President Trump has labeled the ongoing investigations about his administration’s possible connections with Russia as a baseless “witch hunt.” As it were, many Americans happen to disagree with that assessment.
Associated Press and the NORC Center for Public Affairs Research released a new poll this week, and it found that approximately 61% of surveyed Americans believe that Trump tried to “obstruct the investigation” into Russia’s 2016 election interference. Thirty-seven percent of respondents said that they don’t believe Trump impeded the investigations, and another 3% said that they didn’t know, or else, refrained from answering the question.
The poll also found that there is a growing level of concern regarding the contact that Trump’s affiliates had with Russian officials over the course of last year. A slight majority of respondents did not approve of Trump’s decision to fire former FBI director James Comey, though the poll also indicated a lack of confidence regarding the independent investigation being led by special counsel Robert Mueller.
The poll was conducted with 1,068 participants. It was was given 4.1 percent margin of error, and a demographic reading indicates that 46% of responders leaned Democratic, 33% leaned Republican, and 21% identified as independents.
The intrigue surrounding the Russia probes has intensified ever since Trump relieved Comey of duty last month. Trump gave a major boost to concerned critics and political observers on Friday, when he confirmed the reports that Mueller is investigating the president for obstruction of justice.

Well, there are posts that I made where I laughed at the Dems for always getting screwed by the Constitution in these presidential elections. Otherwise, you might be digging for awhile, and I will actually need more coffee.

Poll: Most Americans Support an Independent Russia Investigation
A new NBC News/Wall Street Journal poll conducted after President Trump’s firing of FBI Director James Comey indicates that 78 percent of Americans would prefer that an independent commission or special prosecutor investigate Russia’s involvement in the 2016 presidential election. Only 15 percent of respondents said they preferred that the GOP-controlled Congress handle the investigation, which would also look into alleged links between Russia and the Trump campaign, while only 40 percent of poll respondents said they have at least some confidence in the ability of Congress to conduct a fair and impartial investigation into the matter. Nearly two-thirds did think the FBI was up to the task, but the future of the FBI investigation is currently unclear following Trump’s firing of Comey — which Trump has admitted was at least partially in response to Comey’s handling of the investigation.

"most" Americans could care less about this Russian / Trump collusion fantasy, because we are smart enough to know if there was anything to it we would know it by now in this land of blabberville we live in.
What most Americans may care about, us real Americans anyway is that we find how the Russians were able to hack the DNC, and presumably the RNC, and make sure it never happens again.
But I fear we have the wrong set of people on the case.

THE MEMO: For Trump, danger signs in the polls
President Trump’s willingness to flout convention and stoke controversy may be starting to hurt him, even among previously strong supporters.
Trump has defied political norms ever since the start of his campaign two years ago. He brushed aside calls to become a more conventional candidate, and it paid off, making him the nation’s 45th president.
But Trump’s approval rating, consistently low by historical standards, has been sliding since he took office in January. Crucially, many recent surveys detected an erosion of his support among Republicans and independents.
Trump’s job performance wins approval from only 35 percent of the public, while 64 percent disapprove, according to a new poll released late last week from The Associated Press and the NORC Center for Public Affairs Research. That is one of the worst findings yet for Trump in any major survey.
The same poll found that 65 percent of Americans think their president has little or no respect for the nation’s democratic institutions and traditions.
The second finding does not necessarily spell doom for Trump, given that a large segment of his support comes from people who like him because of his willingness to rebel against “business as usual” in Washington. But it is a warning sign for the president, at the very least.
Republican strategist Dan Judy argued that voters who had backed Trump with some ambivalence over Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton last November were among those most likely to be put off by the various controversies to afflict the White House and by the president’s incendiary style.
“A lot of people — the ‘Not Hillary’ Trump voters — knew who Donald Trump was, they knew what kind of person he was,” said Judy, who worked on Sen. Marco Rubio's presidential campaign (R-Fla.) last year. “They were willing to tolerate some of the theatrics and some of the disruption it led to, as long as it led to a policy agenda they supported.
“The longer he goes without real policy victories, the less patience they are going to have.”
Those voters appear to be becoming jaded with the apparently endless storms that have afflicted the Trump presidency. But, as usual, there is no sign of the president backing down or tempering his public pronouncements.
Over the past week, amid reports that Trump is under investigation by special counsel Robert Mueller for possible obstruction of justice, the president unleashed Twitter barbs at Clinton, the “fake news media” and fired FBI Director James Comey.
On Friday morning, Trump appeared to take aim at his own deputy attorney general, Rod Rosenstein, who appointed Mueller after Comey’s firing.
“I am being investigated for firing the FBI Director by the man who told me to fire the FBI Director! Witch Hunt,” Trump wrote.
Sen. Dianne Feinstein (D-Calif.) was among those firing back at Trump. In a statement released a few hours later, she asserted, “The message the president is sending through his tweets is that he believes the rule of law doesn’t apply to him.”
Though Trump’s defenders have long argued that pollsters underestimate his support and that his base is resilient, there is some data to back up the skeptics.
In the RealClearPolitics average of polls as of Friday afternoon, Trump’s job performance was registering 39.9 percent approval and 53.6 percent disapproval.
Polling and data expert Nate Silver wrote on Twitter earlier this month, “Good reporting needs to be able to distinguish between Trump's Bannonist base (20-25% of the country) and all Trump voters (46%).”
Silver also highlighted, as other pollsters have done, that the number of Trump supporters who say they back him “strongly” has dropped in many polls.
In the new Associated Press poll, fully one-quarter of Republicans and GOP-leaning independents disapproved of Trump’s job performance, while nearly a third said he has little or no respect for America’s democratic institutions.
Those figures should be troubling to the White House, given that sitting presidents often enjoy approval ratings of around 90 percent among supporters of their own party.
Judy, the GOP strategist, said the change showing up in the polls is often a precursor to a broader loss of support.
“Even among those who approve, you’re seeing a decrease in the intensity of that approval,” he said. “That’s the first step in the decline. The next step is people moving from ‘somewhat approve’ to ‘somewhat disapprove’ — and that’s when Trump is in real trouble.”
Still, Judy acknowledged that such a switch might be a long time coming. And even some Republican strategists who have been critical of Trump cautioned against overstating his problems.
Pundits and pollsters have written him off repeatedly, only to find him survive problems that would sink other politicians.
Rick Tyler, who worked for Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas) during the 2016 GOP presidential primary, said Trump might have lost some “moderate Republicans” who had always been lukewarm in their support.
