      The kids today don't believe it but in 2018 one major argument the Democrats used was that if they won the House they would do oversight on Trump and check his excesses. Many voters believed them too and it helped the Dems win! Wild times.

      Yeah man, they impeached him, and then a global pandemic hit with record unemployment and a huge civil rights uprising and citizens getting gassed and now we are 5 months from the Election, which he’s trying to fix. You want to blame them for what exactly?

      Fun fact: they have both the constitutional duty and right to provide oversight on his handling of Covid-19 and protests.

          Fun fact - you have a financial interest in ignoring or if necessary downplaying what they are doing.

          Keep digging. You’ve been wrong about pretty much everything in the Trump era. Why stop now?

          And you of course understand that this oversight is actively being blocked by the administration.

          You're inventing some notion of "oversight" which entails what, exactly? Sounds like you're throwing out a buzzword for convenience. House Dems passed a bunch of COVID-19 bills and are working on a reform bill. You're addicted to malcontentedness.

          To me, it appears he’s holding the dems to a high standard. I have no problem with that.

          Fun fact: and the corrupt republican senate has the option to obstruct all evidence & testimony and acquit trump again no matter what crime he commits. The gop has made it clear they are committed to enabling his high crimes til the bitter end.
