One step closer to One-Party Totalitarian Rule

[Martinius]

They are next to get the Trump flamethrower.

He tolerates them only because they approve his appointees (mostly) and give his ideas legitimacy (most Republican congress people, anyway). And because he needs them to pass his legislation. Trump would prefer to rule alone, if he could.

No, but these politicians play to that part of their constituency that doesn't want any limiting of illegal immigration. Some of these Congressmen openly encourage defiance of the laws governing immigration.

You start with no for an answer, then give reasons to support a yes answer.

You mean a Twitter-tantrum?

No more press conferences where Trump is present.

If they go like this one did, that's probably a good idea. Better to go hold a rally attended by sycophants in Florida.

How unkind.

Oh boy, now we are in La La Land. Like the Immigration people are going to announce what they are going to specifically do next, and when? To a bunch of Congressmen? Who don't need to know this? That's a stretch. It is difficult for me to believe that people really think that way, it is so bizarre.

So, in your opinion, by virtue of being Hispanic, they are incapable of being objective in carrying out their job?

How unkind.

I'm just following the Presidents leadership.

Indeed, but maybe someday they will.

He very much would. In fact, there is another thread around here where someone is upset that most of our elected Republicans are not Trump fans and are critical of him. They were called fake Republicans (Ryan, McConnell, McCain, et al.). I have no trouble believing Trump would do away with them all to be the dictator he wants to be.
