Of course they are resigning they will have no control over Trump, that was the point of electing him. It is usually the bureaucrats running the country not the elected people. Times they are a changing.

Obama was just a puppet of the big
donors who bought and paid for him
to do their will. Hillary would have been
a mindless marionette, dancing on
the strings of all the donors to the
Clinton Crime Family Foundation.

That's why the 18 month long full
court press against Trump. If he got
elected the puppeteers would be
out of office. Pipelines would get
built, walls put up, the power would
be back in the peoples hands. Uh oh..

Carl Bernstein was discussing how some Republicans are starting to feel this way on CNN.

Don't Google "mental state." Google "mentally ill."


Still didn't find much. I am pretty sure that some Republicans have always felt that way.

I'll look more later...most of the stuff that pops up is "Krugman says..."

I found a reference to the Carl Bernstein interview.

He doesn't name any names or quantify the number of "republican leaders" who are questioning his mental state or emotional stability.

Gallup Poll: Obama Overall Average Approval Rating Lower Than Nixon, Bush

"Former President Barack Obama had an overall average approval rating of 47.9 percent, according to a Gallup poll released Friday.
Obama is behind Richard Nixon, who resigned from office, and George W. Bush.. Obama finished his tenure as president with a 47.9% average job approval rating. He ranks below eight presidents and ahead of only three -- Gerald Ford, Jimmy Carter and Harry Truman -- in Gallup's polling history."

Dude definitely has some people on edge.

Some people need to be on edge.

Does he have the right people on edge?

So you believe Gallup's average, but doubt all the other polls that have Obama's current approval rating soaring?

And you doubt all the polls that show Donald's current approval ratings in the 30s and 40s, but keep talking about right-wing Rasmussen that shows him over 50?

Curious...

Actually, not curious at all.

Count me as on edge. Good or bad, I don't like when .gov works so fast.
Be bold and risk defeat, or be cautious and encourage it.

Golden Boy was far from the first president to send out his press secretary to tell lies. But he's the first to do so about something so puerile and immaterial.

Looks like he's working hard on making some sort of crisis between Mexico and the US. It may be his first real accomplishment other than paper signing.
You believe in an invisible god, and dismiss people who say they are trans? Really?
