Hey, a genuine stupid idea from a liberal: Schumer is on record as saying Tillerson was not tough enough on Russia. The fact that he was dismissed shortly after blaming Russia for that incident in the UK says otherwise, Chuckie Baby. ---

One agreement with the UK doesn’t mean he couldn’t have been tougher (and tougher earlier). Too tough for Trump to stomach doesn’t make him tough. ---

That’s the thing: he’s as tough as the administration allows. Same with Pompeo, if confirmed. ---

And for the best liberal idea of the day… Take the metal detectors out of the White House, put them in schools. Hire some substitute teachers, give them guns, let them protect the White House. Everybody is happy! Kids are safe, trump is protected by the very people he says will keep our children safe! How can even a republican find fault with that perfect plan? ---
