Ah, the #DetroitLions. Second worst team in the NFL over time. Just a few losses away from losing 2/3 of all games over the past 20 years. If Ben Franklin we’re alive today, he’d say, “The only things certain in life are death, taxes, and a lousy season for the Lions.”
Let's set partisan politics aside for a moment and all agree that, like Sen. John McCain, Rep. John Lewis is an authentic American hero who served valiantly on the front lines in the service of his people as well as his country. @BarackObama @RepJohnLewis

The most striking thing is the juxtaposition between the boldness of Trump's actions and the narrowness of his mandate.
