    I have the feeling that today is going to feel like the worst episode of 24 ever.

    If Trump is distracted by TV I doubt anything will get done.

    If your answer is "I don't have one" then no, it's not legit.

    Can confirm, being an LA resident. They suspended the limit for about a week to clear up space. Unsure if it'll get an extension.

    Hopefully tomorrow will be the finale of this four year season of "America." The writers were getting a bit over the top these past few episodes.

    It's like the final season of GOT, but if it was the whole show.

    Trump seems poised to get roasted by his own dragon (supporters). To be fair though I think the one in the show was sentient.

    VP Pence is not expected to attend President Trump's sendoff at Joint Air Force Base Andrews tomorrow morning, per White House officials. He is attending the inauguration later in the day, and aides say it would be logistically challenging for the vice president to do both.

    Haha, yikes.
    Populists (and "national socialists") look at the supposedly secret deals that run the world "behind the scenes". Child's play. Except that childishness is sinister in adults.

    He hasn't even left office and the retconning has begun. His numbers among republicans are already dropping. That's what it looks like when your supporters start to turn on you.

    Yep.

    Hey remember when we thought Trump was going to hold a rally at the same time? What ever happened to that?

    No, but in their efforts to support him they are only dragging him down. Granted, they follow his example so he's just as guilty. It's like a self-destructive feedback loop.

    Guys...I have a sincere question based off this article covering the rift between Trumpublicans and Republicans...

    If Trump causes the GOP to split in half and functionally pushes them out of most seats of power as a result, especially nationally...will America be Great Again?

    Yes, and since that is the issue which, as time goes on, more and more of them will want to distance themselves from, my use of the word poised seems appropriate. I could be wrong, let's check back in 6 months and see where he's at.

    I can, the types that think the "who's who of the political elite" are all "THESWAMP", and media who drew the short straw and have to cover that instead of the inauguration.

    For Pence specifically, based on other reporting, I guess he still think he has a political future. I'm genuinely not sure why, though. He's permanently attached to Trump at the hip, but Trump's base absolutely hates his guts with a passion. He would be a good establishment-party suit, but his proximity to Trump and the things he had to do for Trump taint him there even as much as other establishment types would probably like to give him hug if they're a dude (no-homo, though, Mother wouldn't be pleased).

    I'm shocked that Pence thinks he has any kind of political future. The only way he does is if establishment Republicans pretend the last 4 years didn't happen...which I doubt they'll ever be allowed to forget.
