Joy Reid: 'What country do I live in?'

Wall Street Journal @WSJ
Donald Trump Jr. went to Paris, where he held talks on Syria with Russia supporters http://on.wsj.com/2ghokgZ

What country do I live in? How is this family able to blandly meld personal profit, Russia ties and the White House to just shrugs?

Joy Reid ?@JoyAnnReid 20m20 minutes ago
Remember when just the possibility of Chelsea Clinton running the Clinton Found'n with her mother in the White House caused total apoplexy?

...they created this monster; let them live with it. Besides--I swear to God, better Trump than Ryan or McConnell. Trump is a creature of impulses, and some of them might be benevolent occasionally. We know the GOP Congress will never have a benevolent impulse, ever.

drumpf has no instinct for kindness, it's all him all the time and fuck everyone and anything that gets in the way of him making/stealing $$. Pence would be horrible domestically, but he wouldn't be nearly as bad interntationally. He wouldn't turn the world over to russia to plunder as drumpf intends and has already started to do.

This whole thing is a travesty. There needs to be national emergency called and an election without the voting machines controlled by republicans done.

The hypocrisy of the GOP. The hypocrisy of the media reporting. I'm so sick of fair & balanced & the both sides do it bullshit. I'm so sick of everything for profit. It has corrupted all of our institutions, but the media & our electoral process are the most hurtful. I think we are on a very dark path right now & I hope we can change direction, but that hope thing isn't feeling very strong right now.

National Defense is now a protection racket, law means nothing, asking questions and comments directed at management will not be allowed.

VELVET REVOLUTION

Hillary is likely to end up with as many as 3 million more popular votes.

WHAT ARE WE AFRAID OF???????

We are letting them steal our country out from underneath us.

It's no longer fiction - with all the Nazi and white power bullshit happening lately I'm starting to think Germany really did win WWII, and we've been asleep. But even Germany is alarmed at our white supremacy. And Trump now literally is the Man In The High Castle, and Trump Tower is that high castle.

And no one to hold them accountable.

Even the arch-conservative courts are ruling the country now,
and they will never rule against the Trumps.
