I wholeheartedly agree.

Another thought. Trump couldn't care less about the shutdown or the people involved working for him; it's only about him, whatever his strategy is.

Consider: He does not want House to begin investigations, to revisit his son, say, for forthright testimony which would start rattling his cage before the Mueller report has a chance of being stopped by the new Attorney General.

Barr says he won't stop Mueller, but he won't say definitively if he will publish the entire report either. He could withhold damage to a sitting President.

Trump, always the superior to anyone else, is convinced he can do something to stop Mueller, regardless how many signs there are against that happening.

He's making dumber and dumber decisions, because his decision maker part of his brain is out to lunch, also waiting on Mueller report.

Fear and anxiety are running this country right now, our national security could be jeopardized, secured only by dedicated, patriots, themselves, forced into an economic struggle for family survival.

Military leaders don't know quite how to respond to Trump's erratic behavior as they've never experienced anything like it before.

Look at us.

No screen writer could come close to this.

Looking forward to Cohen testimony. Or will the shutdown shut down his voice.
