If you think the Dems and media want to depose Trump

Signed Legislation

Pending Legislation

34 pieces of legislation signed by President Trump so far and another four awaiting his signature.

Hilarious. "US Wants to Compete for a World Expo Act" and similarly substantive laws. There was a lot of tension during the campaign about the World Expo.

The point is none of the noise the Democrats are making is slowing down the work of the government, it is just making the Democrats irrelevant to it.

I respectfully disagree. The White House is having to try to manage the investigations and trying to put MAJOR legislation in place (many of which I support) but the noise and investigations is limiting them to the "US Wants to Compete for a World Expo Act" which is exactly what the Dems want. Wake me up when they pass Obamacare repeal and especially tax reform or maybe infrastructure improvements. All three branches, get it done! That's the best way to handle the Dems, not your list of inane legislation as if we've really accomplished something.

The WH is not trying to manage the investigations. It is hard at work on turning the President's agenda into law. To do that major legislation has to be worked through Congress and that is being done. We will soon have a Senate repeal and replace bill and then the House and the Senate will negotiate a compromise bill; that's the process nearly all major pieces of legislation go through. Republicans in Congress will pass a tax reform act because they understand capital investment in the US depends on it and the consequences will be dire for them at the polls if they don't produce. It took the Democrats over a year to pass Obamacare and AHCA will pass in less time. Most of the legislation any Congress passes is what you are calling inane, but these uninteresting pieces of legislation are necessary to keep the country running.

Lot of future tense at use in your post. There was lots of future tense in the campaign too. Hope you're right, but thus far, I see the big hole in the bagel.

And believe me the WH is indeed trying to manage the investigations, it spends waaaaayyyyy too much time answering questions, consulting lawyers, yada yada yada than a focused WH would want to do.

I see no evidence the WH is spending all that much time on these investigations, but I expect that to change as the midterm elections come closer. The Democrats are counting on being able to keep this bogus investigation going into the midterm elections, hoping it will prevent them from being hurt too badly, but as it becomes clearer to voters that there is no evidence of collusion and even of Russian wrongdoing in the election, the credibility of Democrats will take the worst damage and likely give the Republicans even larger majorities in both houses of Congress.

You are dead wrong. 100 percent wrong.

The Dems want President Trump to stay in office. Desperately. Why? Because the Dems don't want substantive policy changes made through legislation. And as long as President Trump is in office and the swirl of investigations/scandal is in place, DC is effectively paralyzed from passing legislation.

What's the best thing to do? Should we whine about the media? Should we whine about a witch hunt? Should we whine about Hillary (the most nonsensical thing to do, she's dead and buried, moved on)? No, we should pass substantive legislation on Tax Reform, Immigration Reform, Infrastructure, etc. THAT is the one thing that the Dems are trying to avoid. By falling into the trap of whining about sideshow issues, we actually HELP the Dems stall substantive changes.

The best revenge is to do what you want in legislation.

The same applies to the media. They want Trump in office to get people to watch their news. Clicks and views equals money, and President Trump is the best thing that ever happened to them. They too don't want substantive changes in legislation, they too just want the swirl.

So pass legislation and don't engage with the swirl. That's the best revenge. That's what the President should do while we essentially control THREE branches of government.

The only things the dems want is to whine like petulant children and get away with it. Anything they can do to disrupt the government & hope to pin it on the right. Having said that there are a few truly stupid lefties that would love to oust Trump. True morons with typical tunnel vision.

Level of agreement with this and the prior post by tmt: 100%.
