Instead, there should be no vote on Gorsuch’s nomination until Trump’s legitimacy as a president is established.
Which means the Senate intelligence committee and the FBI must first conclude that Russian operatives were not responsible for Trump’s electoral victory, and Trump must reveal his taxes and put his assets into a blind trust.
Just winning the election and obeying the law aren’t enough it seems.
I raise him Obama’s college transcripts and undoctored birth certificate, followed up by HRC’s full medical exam.
Robert Reich is writing for Salon.
There’s really nothing else that need be said.
So very sorry, Mr. Reich.
This here sign says “You must be this tall to enter this opinion.”
until Trump’s legitimacy as a president is established
Translation – I mean never.
Hey, Bobby, the FBI has concluded that.

But, of course, Reich is intellectually dishonest. Should all his demands be satisfied, he’d still call Trump illegitimate.
I’m still at a loss to understand what these Russian operatives are meant to have done. Let people see the DNC’s emails? And that’s it?
“Trump is illegitimate because the population found out during the election that the other team are a bunch of shits. If the population did not find that out then they would have voted for the other team! Impeach!”
“Let people see the DNC’s emails? And that’s it?”
Yes.
Party above country.
The left is fighting last years/month war, Trump has moved on and the ground is shifting beneath their feet and it scares the shit out of them….happy days.
Looks like the 2020 election is sewn up then. Pity he can’t run in the 2024 election.
He’s going full mental, trying to corner the Twitter loony demographic.
Dear Mr Worstall
Dare say that nice Mr Reich* would ask the same about Brexit.
Reich. you lost get, over it.

Maybe President Trump could set a precedent as the second third term president.

* If his father, grandfather and great grandfather were called Robert, would that make him the Fourth Reich?
“Maybe President Trump could set a precedent as the second third term president.”
This weeks’ Bagehot column is quite good. It is written just before a 2030 GE when Paul Nuttall is just about to become PM as the UKIP leader in a UKIP/Conservative coalition.
As it closes …..
“How long should I wait before I invite President Trump to London?” Mr Nuttall ponders to himself. “Is seven days too soon? And should I call her Mrs President or Ivanka?” As his car sweeps onto Stoke’s marketplace, his phone begins to ring.
DP,
Let’s not get ahead of ourselves: The Turd Reich is surely enough?
