Of course EVERYTHING is partisan.

That was evident yesterday when Elija Cummings ( D-MD) was acting more like Hillary Clinton's defense lawyer instead of a member of an investigative panel.

that presupposes that the committee was in fact an investigative panel in the first place. It wasn't.

If they weren't, why did one of Hillary's henchmen plead the 5th in a previous hearing?

No. Where he's being presumptuous is thinking it is incumbent on the next president to somehow bridge the divide with the broken, idealogical, narcissistic, ignorant, immature group of republicans that can't even work with each other...

They have to fix their own house.

"Both sides are just as guilty..." is a lame meme. Can you come up with something better perhaps?

I would too. I'm so disillusioned with the whole bunch. Liars, hypocrites, all bought and paid for. It's just a sad joke at this point.

At least Trump doesn't give a rip about protecting a political image. If he surrounded himself with strong advisers, he may not be a disaster after all.

I do wish he would drop out though because a Trump nomination is pretty much handing the victory to Hilary. She's a pro at deflecting grilling so any Trump vs Hilary debate will even be a tie or her winning.
That is a big maybe! I don't think the American people can afford someone like Trump in the oval office. Not now, not ever..
