The More GOP Lawmakers Do Nothing, the Better Trump Looks

Maybe This Time Really Is Different (Norm Ornstein) from the Atlantic
"Historical precedents augur against Donald Trump—but perhaps the old rules no longer apply. ... "So is anything really different this time? I think so. First, because of the amplification of rage against the machine by social media, and the fact that Barack Obama has grown stronger and more assertive in his second term while Republican congressional leaders have become more impotent. The unhappiness with the establishment and the desire to stiff them is much stronger."
