BC Idonwanna sez:  He come from Greenland!

Besides his delusional self image, Trump is prone to issuing fiats.  The latest being ordering "our great companies" to "immediately look for alternatives" to China in his tit for tat trade war. China slapped a new tariff of 5 to 10% on $75 billion of US imports this week; Wall Street responded by dropping over 600 points. His reelection chances are fast becoming chop suey, although Il Douche dismisses recession woes saying, "I always find a way to win."

Wackydoodle sez: Can't have Whitest House neither!

Meanwhile, House Judiciary Chairman Nadler has asked four committees of the House to share information they obtain to aid his committee's impeachment inquiry.  His letter--addressed to the leaders of the House Intelligence, Financial Services, Oversight and Reform, and Foreign Affairs panels--appears to be a direct response to objections from regime lawyers that the House Intelligence and Finance committees may not use impeachment as a grounds for justifying their requests for the 'Chosen One's' personal financial information held by Deutsche Bank and Capital One.  Under the Constitution, the Judiciary Committee alone has the power to recommend articles of impeachment.  Mr. Nadler has represented in court that his committee is conducting an impeachment inquiry without holding a formal committee vote on that step.  Well over a majority of the Democratic House caucus now publicly supports opening an impeachment inquiry of Il Douche.
