"Fortunately, today's president is so innocent of information that Congress cannot continue deferring to executive policymaking. And because this president has neither a history of party identification nor an understanding of reciprocal loyalty, congressional Republicans are reacquiring a constitutional a Madisonian ethic. It mandates a prickly defense of institutional interests, placing those interests above devotion to parties that allow themselves to be defined episodically by their presidents."

"Fastidious people who worry that the president's West Virginia and Ohio performances — the alpha male as crybaby — diminished the presidency are missing the point, which is: For now, worse is better. Diminution drains this office of the sacerdotal pomposities that have encrusted it. There will be 42 more months of this president's increasingly hilarious-beyond-satire apotheosis of himself, leavened by his incessant whining about his tribulations ('What dunce saddled me with this silly attorney general who takes my policy expostulations seriously?')."
Reminds me of the Disco Kid a bit. Endlessly the victim. Tirelessly promoting himself as the solution to all problems if only those big meanies would recognize his brilliance and stop picking on him.
Gooooooo, Dumpster!
