The disaster of this presidency just keeps getting bigger. If you haven't read the so-called Nunes Memo, the Washington Post has you covered.

I wanted to say something cogent, something logical, something meaningful about this moment in history, about how this president is so self-interested he would put the very security of our country at risk to get what he wanted, but that is self-evident. Still, it's difficult to do, under the circumstances.

What this memeo does is two things. It is obviously attempting to undermine the elements of the Mueller Trump/Russia investigation. And with some people, I presume it has done.But the secondary thing this memo does is make whatever findings the investigation reveals questionable, because it attempts to make it appear that there is a "partisan" element to it.

The roiling, stomach-turning, cover-upping, grasp for power, a "my way or no way' at all costs sense about how this government runs is horrific. The question now is, can we get through this in a way that won't damage our government even further?

At this point, I really don't know.

I presently am hoping that when Trump goes down, his whole administration is sucked down the drain with him.
