Day after day the administration proves the need to evaluate and verify their actions at every single step - taking a page from their own playbook, don't we just encourage them by ignoring their crimes?

If one of these honchos is finally and indisputably found guilty of high crimes will they all tumble down after him -- I hope so! I believe the world will be sympathetic to the US, and will give us the benefit of the doubt that democracy is still alive in America and it is still functioning. Perhaps this os a pollyanna view, but I hope that we can indeed regain respect in the world when we demonstrate that we can topple our own leaders when they are this corrupt.

Maybe not the president and vice president, but all the minions of the Republican party who go on TV and say just about anything to try to win a debate will keep trying to give viewers (or readers) the impression that there is even the smallest iota of truth to it.
