        As you well know sir, when the President does it it’s not illegal.

        When I was a kid, there were Republicans who I respected, some I liked. Where have they all gone? Elliot Richardson, William Ruckelshaus, @realBobWoodward and Judge Sirica to mention a few. Now we have KKK Kavanaugh, Neil "Evangelical Sharia Law" Gorsuch and @realDonaldTrumppic.twitter.com/3al73KZyt9

        We wouldn't be in this mess if some historians didn't glorify con-artists like Reagan who tried to steal credit for ending the Cold War after Jimmy Carter induced the Soviets into Afghanistan to bankrupt their treasury. GOP used Reagan's "spending" as mask for tripling USA debt.

        A repeat of the NIXON era. Disturbing moments every which way you dissect what is going on in America. Almost like a fictional movie 🎥, but real. Moral values, decency, cohabitation, civil politics, human rights issues, religious differences and freedom are in mourning. HELP!

        Except when he directed his thugs to break into Daniel Ellsberg's psychiatrist's office and steal confidential files?
