(52,227 posts)1. I don't know if "constitutional crisis" is the right term;
I'd call any of those firings obstruction of justice in the investigation of crimes that include, among other things, obstruction of justice.
I think it would be funny if Donnie fires done it all of the people, then democrats win one or both houses of Congress, then launch a new special counsel to investigate those firings as another obstruction of justice.
Then maybe Donnie can fire *that* person....

All this shit from pundits about how this or that will bring on a Constirutional crisis is just that: shit. The very basis of our democracy -- free elections -- was ripped apart.
