I propose a Stop Making History Day. A day of no legislation or policy announcements or court hearings or campaigning. Instead, a day of yard work, watching bad television, making love in rooms you hadn't considered before. A break from the daily drama (and trauma) of American political life.

Nobody being above the law falls into the self-evident truths category. Trump v US was the classic no-brainer. The easiest case all session. A 9-0 call, were we not trapped in a political bedlam. This is madness: complete, hallucinatory madness.
