Are we still here this morning? Will we be here tomorrow?

Or will there just be the slow clearing of “fire and fury, the likes of which the world has never seen”?

Those words rolled off Donald Trump’s lips like words always do – mockingly, foolishly, and likely with little more thought or preparation than what he gave to the words he used on the Access Hollywood bus when he bragged of grabbing women inappropriately, or when he imitated a handicapped reporter, or shamed and admonished Senate Majority Leader Mitch Mc-

Connell to “get back to work” on Obamacare repeal and replace.

An American president has said something like “fire and fury” before, but that president was actually in the act of waging a war – and ending it.
