Trump regrets his Supreme Court picks which is good, because democrats are going to impeach and remove them right after he’s impeached and removed.

Directing DOJ to slow-walk politically damaging decisions until after people vote would be a major scandal under any normal administration. Here, it’s just Friday.

A country that does not allow the recall of a president is not a free country. In a free and fair democratic republic, people should be able to remove a corrupt president. If we ever regain control of our democracy, that has to be changed. Impeachment is a political process. Voting is a right.
