In reply to the discussion: Vance says Roberts is 'profoundly wrong' about Supreme Court's role to check the executive branch [View all]LastLiberal in PalmSprings
(13,162 posts)9. "'Tis better to remain quiet and be thought a fool than to say something and remove all doubt."
It's a quote by Abraham Lincoln or Mark Twain or someone else.
I know fat Donnie doesn't (can't?) read, and doesn't need to since he knows more about everything than everybody else, but you'd think someone with a Yale law degree would know something the rest of us learned in high school civics: "The government of the United States is divided into three branches, two of which serve as a check against the others."
In Tangerine Bozo's world the branches are Trump, Trump and Trump.
God help anyone who tells the God King "No."
