The next round of a potential government shutdown is approaching. Back in March the Democrats folded quickly without a fight, so the reasonable expectation this time is that the Democrats will fold quickly with a fight. That's because too many in the ranks of the Democrats are weak and pathetic.

What makes all this so aggravating is that Trump's modus operandi isn't complex at all. It's the most basic of bullying, so the most basic counter measures would actually work and they do every time they are applied. Stand up to the bully and that's the whole deal.

So much of what Trump does could easily be curtailed if Congress would exercise the powers granted to it by the Constitution.
