it finishes airing this morning. It is interesting viewing but I doubt that they will ban Trump.

are so naive. Too many of them said, if effect, let Trump come so that we can either 1) show him the errors of his ways, 2) we can introduce him to all our wonder constituents to show him that they are not evil, etc. I could only think good luck with that. I don't think that some of them realized just how bad it would be if someone like Trump ever got elected President. One guy lectured the anti-Trump crowd on the separation of powers. I so wanted someone to point out the fact that much of Congress and the Supreme Court are controlled by the bat shit crazy crowd. The President may not be a king, however if the majority of the Federeal Govt. is controlled by the bat shit crazy crowd, the President doesn't have to be a King (or Queen).

Some of the members were so right on target with why Trump is unacceptable.
