With less than veto proof majorities in Congress, "our side" doesn't govern anything.
The agencies are headed by Obama appointees, under the Executive branch. Congressional committees are oversight, not management.
Logic and rationality. Very admirable traits to me, but somehow I doubt reality will mitigate the anger drummed up by TALKe. "Trump Voters Are Not Just Angry - They Want Revenge"
http://www.gopbriefingroom.com/index.php/topic,189827.0.htmlRevenge is a strong emotion. It will take loss and suffering to turn that emotion into something useful.
The Trump supporters can't be reasoned with, because they don't want reason. They know Trump's record of policy flip flops, business failure, rat contributions, and grammatically retarded speeches. None of it matters, because today they matter. and that doesn't happen very often. They felt powerless in 2008 when they failed to knock out McCain, and in 2012 when they failed to knock out Romney. Often times they only feel their power when rats win. They thought they showed their strength in 2010 when the TP revolution happened, but that was Obama buyers remorse, and they were reminded of how impotent they were, when they failed to stop even one incumbent Senator in the 2014 primaries.
Today they have sided with skinheads and LIVs...now they feel powerful for the first time in many years. Logic is not a tool that will work for these misguided souls. I fear only the aftermath of a Trump Presidency or a Goldwateresque shellacking by Hitlery will bring wisdom.
That being said, I thank you for trying to inject common sense into this kooky situation.
