And now for some GOOD news. We may look back on yesterday, Black Friday for Dotard and his henchmen, as the beginning of the end.


Yup, even with all the LOW points of his two year assault on al that is good and decent in our country, Black Friday could be the beginning of his death knell.
We can only hope, as Mueller gets closer and closer, his ties with Russia, through Roger Stone among others got even MORE obvious and his ill-fated shutdown collapsed around his fat ass.

For a few hours, it looked like the foundations of Donald Trump's presidency were crumbling in plain sight.
Trump has put on such a show of neck-whipping drama and barely believable controversy that it's tough to identify his worst day in office.
But history could come to see Friday -- when the President plunged to a humiliating defeat in the partial government shutdown and an FBI team sent by Robert Mueller swooped down on his political sorcerer Roger Stone -- as a turning point.
Trump's image, meticulously crafted over decades, as the self-styled master of the art of the deal, absorbed a severe dent as he crawled away from a 35-day government shutdown with nothing.

Echoes of Nixon

Indictments and arrests of Trump associates have become so frequent that they almost fail to shock.

On Friday, the President's already jailed former campaign chairman, Paul Manafort, was in court in Washington. Stone, meanwhile, stood handcuffed before a judge in Florida. Stone said he’d never make up lies to hurt the president. He doesn’t have to. We just want the truth, which is plenty damaging.
Yet his reminder of the iconic photograph of Richard Nixon boarding Marine One after leaving the White House in disgrace, with both hands flashing ‘peace signs’ was hardly the best omen for the current President on one of his darkest days.
