Trump: "I never thought about being a politician until two days before I decided to run. A little before that.”
In fact, he volunteered to run as Bush’s vice president in 1988, launched a campaign for president on Reform Party ticket in 2000 and considered runs in 2004 and 2012.
4 months away from an election, there should be no consideration of a Supreme Court nominee until the American people have a say. Leader McConnell set that standard when he denied Judge Garland a hearing for nearly a year, and the Senate should follow the McConnell Standard now.
We need to beat this like a big bass drum: "A President under multiple criminal investigations can not select the judge that may ultimately decide his guilt."
The administration’s current family separation policy is an affront to the decency of the American people, and contrary to principles and values upon which our nation was founded. The administration has the power to rescind this policy. It should do so now.
Is it "Trumplicans"? "Trumpicans"? "Retrumplicans"? What are we calling Republicans now that they're a wholly owned subsidiary of the Trump Organization?

I served 6 Presidents, 3 Rs & 3Ds. I directly supported Clinton, Bush 43, and Obama. While I didn't agree with all their policy choices, I admired and respected all of them, as they put country above their personal interests. Not so with you, as your self adoration is disgraceful https://t.co/A1brb0HW3V
#Trump on #Russia: "Getting along with Russia is a good thing, not a bad thing. Now, maybe we will and maybe we won't. And probably nobody's been tougher to Russia then Donald Trump," he said. "And just about everybody agrees to that except very stupid people."m The f*ck?
When Obama called Putin, Russia hadn't yet:
-annexed Crimea
-destabilized Ukraine
-hacked a US political party & a presidential nominee's chairman
-otherwise interfered in US election with divisive fake news
-attempted assassinations in Britain with military-grade nerve agent https://t.co/FYHT4OPoGs
