monitoring Trump and relevant contemporary events

Alla yawl can call Tony "Big Tuna" Scaramucci "Mooch" if ya want, but from here on out, I'm stickin with Scarface. Like Al Capone, with the Valentine's day massascre, and the fictional "Scarface" played by Pacino, this Scarface knows just how to take care of business, ya know?

Say "hello" to my little friend.

There is no facade with Scaramucci and that is rare for someone who is an absolute insider who's reached the highest echelons of Wall St. Although his current firm SkyBridge Capital sits atop $7.5 billion in assets, to get there Scaramucci had to learn to be book smart and street smart.

One of the most refreshing traits of both Scaramucci and the book, is that he speaks of his failures and how he learned from them with great candor.

Scaramucci's uncle put all his family through a ritual of delivering a motorcycle in Harlem to teach all the Scaramucci boys a lesson.

To set the record straight, Scaramucci doesn't think greed serves anyone and he's so disgusted with it and what's happening on Wall St. that he's written a book on the subject called Goodbye Gordon Gekko: How To Find Your Fortune Without Losing Your Soul.

It's about damned time

Huckabee calls for repeal of 17th Amendment after healthcare failure

I'm guessing we'll get Trump supporters telling Mike to 'let it go, you lost man'.

Apparently the Dems have infected DC with soreloseritis

Huckabee's quixotic venture would be wonderful (at present) for the GOP if it had any chance of coming to be, but it doesn't. Still no harm in tossing into the public debate. You've just spread it now.

I'm just curious if Trump supporters think his actions have hurt his own agenda.

Ah, well, I agree with the guy, Eugene Robinson, whom I don't remember reading before... but I'm not a major newswriter name memorizer.

As well, I think it will set a horrible precedent if the Resistance is successful with their soft coup. They don't bother to think about it because they smugly believe a Democrat could never be in the same position as Trump, but this ignores the fact that much of the position he is in is due to their actions. If they are successful, when Elizabeth Warren or Bernie Sanders becomes the next elected president it doesn't take a genius to predict the immediate creation of a new Resistance...on the Right

I surprised that you don't perceive what happened with Obama as the equivalent of the resistance on the right?

There hasn't even been much to resist yet in the Trump presidency.

The resistance against Obama lasted for 6 years once Republicans seized power. There has already been a democrat in the same position as Trump, in fact in a much worse position were it not for his much greater effectiveness as a leader, at least compared to the leader that we've seen Trump be the last 6 months of his presidency.

Edited to add: Please don't take this post as a 'you did it first' rebuttal. There has been escalation to our current situation from both sides since before I was born. The Obama example was just used the most current example.
