There may be a method to the madness of letting Trump–who is clearly treasonous, incompetent, financially compromised, & psychologically fragmenting–function as president for several months. He is signing one executive order after another reversing decades of social protections & accelerating the process of neoliberal scorched earth economics like the destruction of public education, environmental protections, & civil liberties.

They can form a commission to take him out any time they want; they already have the goods on him. But he serves an invaluable service that Clinton could not have, given her populist rhetoric. We will be forced to go back to the 1960s & refight all those battles all over again. Bring it on. We do what we have to.
