   No suprises from SCOTUS today. The Courts and Congress will keep passing Trump's obvious guilt back and forth like a hot potato, hoping he passes away before either institution has to do its job.

   And in Congress’ case, raising money while doing so.

   NIce racket.

     @MrAdamJohn There will be no action on this in the current political climate until sometime after we’re beyond the mess we’re in now. Solving problems of that magnitude require a level of maturity, resolve and political sacrifice that is more than sorely lacking currently and probably for much of the next generation.

     So short answer, like most other big issues I see no short term solution unless clamity forces everyone’s hands.

     @WarnerCrocker Fair assessment/prediction. Wondering if you have insight and knowledge here on; #debttoGDP

     How will US government significantly reduce the debt-to-GDP ratio? Fixing the trend should be a priority. This is where #government needs to direct politics & take action IMHO. Perhaps this is something our OIG is responsible for helping the head of the GAO understand, the Comptroller General of the US? Somewhere in the halls of government this responsibility lands with substantial force.
