(CNN) On Tuesday night, the Democratic-controlled House did something very rare: They voted to condemn President Donald Trump for his Sunday tweets in which he urged four Democratic congresswomen to return to the countries they came from. And even the House vote, while historic, has no real-world implications for the President. That Trump's tweets, like so many abnormal things he has done since 2015, will simply be fed into the partisan meat grinder -- producing predictable results. We've already seen that exact dynamic play out -- on the floor of the House during Tuesday night's debate before the condemnation vote. After the vote, House Majority Leader Kevin McCarthy (California) called it a "sad day" for the institution, a ccording to The Washington Post , and added: "Our rules of order and decency were broken today."
