Like I said, I know how bad it hurts to think it will be 16 years or more before Dems can hope to remotely become relevant again. Meanwhile unlike the last completely partisan DOJ which stonewalled Republican led investigations for the entire 8 year Obama tenure, AG Jeff Sessions took the high road by recusing himself from any campaign/Russian investigations.

And though it looks like you got that copy and paste thing down to pure science, the partisan posses have already seen their days of triumph. And I guess for those of the past administration who skirted the law so adroitly, the fact that Republicans now occupy the White House and the DOJ, has evidently escaped their notice. I mean, they got so much stuff swept up under the rug one can't even walk on it anymore.

The rats in the woodpile picked off Flynn that's true, but in so doing they risked exposing themselves to a very efficient and feared intelligence branch. And about right now I'd guess that the Trump Administration might be second guessing their expectations of any sort of rational bipartisanship in the federal government.

Now, about your "16 or more years" statement: does that apply to the Presidency AND majorities in House and Senate? Or, are you speaking more about state- level majorities?

AG Sessions did the politically prudent thing by recusing himself.
