Even GOP admitting Trump can't govern

Never in my wildest dreams did I ever think I would be pulling for Paul Ryan or Mitchell McConnell, on any subject. But now, as they fight - verbally and politically - with the so-called president it's hard not to admire their resistance to his self­-admired achievement and ridiculous goals, viz. a wall 30 feet high and 1,500 miles long on the border with Mexico - you know, the one Mexico will be so happy to pay for.

Or, the described equality of the KKK and neo-Nazi forums with people protesting their fascist, hate proclamations. Or, the unending Republican-inspired crusade to reduce or do away with Medicare, Medicaid, Social Security or any other program designed to help the people of the country, so they could arrange to pay smaller - or no - income and corporate taxes, plans we still have to oppose.

But while we fight those self-serving Republican dreams, let's acknowledge that even Republican politicians recognize the fundamental inability of their leader to govern a nation.
