I think the “Jack Smith Gives Up” headline isn’t fair since it was other people’s fault he was appointed so late. But other than that I think conservative David Frum’s article pointing out that Trump got away with treason and this is a dangerous thing for the future of the country is spot on.
Fuck this country, fuck the justice theater, and fuck everyone who dragged their asses for four fucking years. If Donald was a poor man he would have been arrested on Jan 6th and taken to Guantanamo.
3 Republican Presidents have committed treason to get elected.
Nixon worked with the north Vietnamese to prolong the war. LBJ new about this and did nothing.
Regan worked with the Ayatollah to keep American hostages from being released. He got away with it.
Trump worked wity Russia through his campaign manager Paul Manafort to hack the DNC and use democrats own internal polls against them in the final hours of the election. He also got away with it.
In the army they tell you: once is happenstance, twice is coincidence, three times is enemy action.
No, definitely not. But if Dems raise the issue, and make the argument, and get Republicans to go on record supporting Trump, it's easier to drive voter turnout in the midterms. Angry people vote, and things are going to get much worse if the Democrats roll over without a fight. Remember, Republicans were the minority party when they effectively stalled Clinton, Obama, and Biden for 20 years. Democrats act like they need a supermajority to do anything.
They voted to acquit because his term was expiring and they argued that he would need to be prosecuted in criminal court. He can still be impeached, as double jeopardy does not apply.
