Trump is trapped. And he locked the entire GOP in with him.

We are all just prisoners here, of our own device   Hotel California   The Eagles It’s a classic axiom, “Like a rat caught in a maze.” It’s a scary mental image, running blindly from corridor to corridor, bumping into dead ends, ceaselessly doubling back, desperately looking for an exit that doesn’t...

Top Republicans join the freakout over Mattis' departure

Most Republicans have tried to ignore the fact that you’d get better decision-making in the Oval Office from a drunk tabby cat batting around a Magic 8-ball. They got their tax cuts, and they still hate Obama, so they’ve been only too happy to indulge the baby-handed lunatic running around...

Jeff Flake says he might run against Trump in 2020

As one of the few non-genuflecting members of the Republican Party, Sen. Jeff Flake has been a reliable thorn in Donald Trump’s side. That may continue after Flake leaves Congress in January. In an interview with Politico, Flake said that “somebody needs to run” against Trump in the 2020 primaries:...

Sussing out Jeff Flake's “end game.”

In my last article, I opined that I thought that Jeff Flake was sincere in his stand in forcing the reopening of the FBI background check into Brett Kavanaugh’s behavior before the Senate could vote on his nomination. I feel that Flake actually has a conscience, and the combination of...
