    Agreed.There were no real consequences when he wronged normal people, but taking power from congress… they won’t put up with that shit.

      At first I thought they wouldn’t dare block this, but I started thinking about a CGP Grey video on dictatorship. If Trump is going to start dictating and bypassing Congress then all the donations and kickbacks are going to show less return on investment. Big business will find more ways to funnel money to Trump and possibly his cabinet. Only question is how empty Congress is willing to see its coffers become.

        Yeah, I heard a news tidbit on the radio about a fox news interview with a republican where they basically said no way to allowing this. And the commentary was that the party knew the question would be asked, and so did the congress person. So they were well prepared for it. And that it was essentially them making a clear statement on the subject.
