If you believe in process of law, and the constitution,
It has to be tolerated. Till it's over.
When it's over, we need to remember and change the rules so it has some more 'balance and checking'
but carefully.
You just can't be circumventing the constitution for the immediate need.
The 'check' we are relying on right now is the 25 amendment clause in the case things get to far out of hand.
Republicans like this as long as they get their legislation through.
Party leaders have held trump in check with this option.
They seem to have ultimate control at the moment. No matter what.
Party leaders will be able to 'blame' trump in the end for their deeds.
The type of control they might not have with Pence. Not that he is any type of maverick.
And the distaste of a constitutional crisis.
I think they are just waiting for the mid-terms really and re-check their positions then.
But you might watch for the 'burn the house down' in the lame session of congress.
