I will leave this here, as I fly off to the South of France for a few weeks. Paul is correct, directionally — but in the same breath, utterly shirks his responsibility for voting for the felon who (he agrees!) is plainly acting lawlessly here — and elsewhere.

He made this damn monster — thrice.

Own that, man — but here is his view (hypocritical though it may be):

…I was doubly disappointed when, without congressional authorization, President Trump had the East Wing of the White House demolished so he could replace it with a huge ballroom that would fit in better at Versailles than on the White House grounds. My first disappointment was purely personal. I liked the old structure and dislike its replacement.

My second disappointment was law-based. Congress has prohibited the construction of any “building or structure . . . on any reservation, park, or public grounds of the Federal Government in the District of Columbia without express authority of Congress.” 40 U. S. C. §8106. The White House is a building erected on park ground in D.C. and Congress has not authorized rebuilding it….

Spare me your fainting couch routines man.

This is your mess — get YOUR ppl to clean it (him) up.

Out.
