"Trump is not going to have some sudden epiphany about the need for an open and honest policy process...president has retreated, irrevocably, behind the walls of his own Forbidden City of the mind—a place where he is the emperor, his judgment is always right, and his commands must always be obeyed."

I called Max Miller a scumbag on Newsmax a few moments ago and criticized the Republican Party for tolerating domestic abusers who prey on women and little girls. Here’s the clip 👇

I'm just going to keep screaming this until I'm hoarse, but until Trump the norm -- for 50 years -- was that sitting presidents had their taxes audited by the IRS and released to the public to show they were clean. But Trump refused repeatedly, and sued when his return was leaked, and now ... this
