Because after Trump, anyone, no matter how unqualified or disgusting, can run. With millions of moronic Whells out there eager to vote for them.
I am in Tahoe for a week and plan to drive by his brothel in Carson City and take some pictures if possible.

A capitulation by the Trumpinista's on their act tough on the border initiative.

Border Officials Suspend Handing Over Migrant Families to Prosecutors

Quote:
McALLEN, Tex. — The nation’s top border security official said on Monday that his agency has temporarily stopped handing over migrant adults who cross the Mexican border with children to prosecutors, undercutting claims by other administration officials that “zero tolerance” for illegal immigration is still in place.

Kevin K. McAleenan, the commissioner of Customs and Border Protection, said he had told border agents not to refer families to the Justice Department for prosecution until the two agencies can agree on a policy that would allow parents to be prosecuted without separating them from their children.

Because Immigration and Customs Enforcement does not have enough detention space for the surge of families across the border, the immediate impact of the decision will be that many families will be quickly released, with a promise to return for a court date at some point in the future.

The decision by Mr. McAleenan, conveyed to reporters at a detention center here, will effectively revive a “catch and release” approach used during the Obama administration for most families crossing the Mexican border illegally. President Trump has repeatedly railed against “catch and release” saying it invited waves of crime and violence into the United States.

More Deep State Sabotage

I hope someone close to Trump is pointing this out.

It's clear enough why Trump spouted off against due process. It is what has forced this fallback to releasing families. I think someone convinced him that if he ordered the Border Patrol and the prosecutors to ignore due process, he'd be deep in impeachment territory.

^^ He will probably start bright and early tomorrow about Democrats not funding his wall, not that Schumer in an act of idiocy did not offer. Good deduction on Trump bitching about the due process.

We all know that trickle-down economics was a fraud, but trickle-down hate? Very real.

Dumb enough to abuse opioids, dumb enough to vote for Donny.

Half of Americans think the United States is in “real danger of becoming a nondemocratic, authoritarian country.” A majority, 55 percent, see democracy as “weak” — and 68 percent believe it is “getting weaker.” Eight in 10 Americans say they are either “very” or “somewhat” concerned about the condition of democracy here.

Our democracy began it's decline with Nixon while our democracy was still improving. Our shrinking middle class goes hand-in-hand with this decline.
