Ahhh…the smell of
impeachment is in the air! Trump is assigning belittling
names to his political opponents and is having his coterie
of servile imps make the talk show rounds throwing mud at
histleblowers.
Ahhh…the smell of
impeachment is in the air! Trump is bullying the cringing
GOP leadership into silence by the imminent threats of
barbed tweets or threatening them to primary them out if
they speak out against him.
Ahhh…the smell of
impeachment is in the air! Trump is playing foreign affairs
like it was a game of marbles and attempting to get “favors”
from foreign governments but only if they give him something
(quid pro quo) in return, which translates: political dirt
on Joe Biden and his son.
Ahhh…the smell of
impeachment is in the air! Trump has now assumed the mantle
of the man with the most wisdom ever and who alone can solve
all of the problems in the US and especially so since he
knows most than the generals and he is an extremely stable
genius (Odd fact: Trump will fight to the death to prevent
any of his academic records from being released…go figure!).
Ahhh…the smell of
impeachment is in the air! Trump continues to milk the
government for financial goodies for his myriad of trips to
his golf courses and for steering people and events to his
hotel in D.C.
Ahhh…the smell of
impeachment is in the air! Trump issues veiled physical
threats against any whistleblower who would come out of
hiding and challenge his loopy loop stories about the
Ukraine call and his invite to China to also investigate his
political opponents.
Ahhh…the smell of
impeachment is in the air! Trump’s tax policies take from
the poor and gives to the rich and yet his “poor” base loves
it so.
Ahhh…the smell of
impeachment is in the air! Trump eviscerates the military
command in Syria and is exposing the Kurds to certain
hostilities by ISIS and the Turkish government because he
wants to suddenly withdraw all protective US forces from
that region.
Ahhh…the smell of
impeachment is in the air! Trump gets much joy from the
angst caused by his policy of separating parents from their
children on the southern border.
Ahhh…. the smell of
impeachment is in the air! Trump, with devilish contempt,
ridicules the people of Baltimore with verbal bombs and he
traduces women of color who are in Congress by telling them
to go back to where they came from.
Yet…the rank and file
GOP hold their noses at his ugly and gross antics and
demeaning words because they are hand in hand with this
president and they will make every effort to redouble their
efforts so that he can win a second term.
When the white
evangelical Republican fringe groups led by Jerry Falwell
Jr., Pat Robertson and Franklin Graham Jr. continue to play
political footsie with a man who has slammed the communion
table, the sanctity of marriage, the abuse of women, the
caricature of minorities and the use of profanity, you
wonder what is up and what is down.
It is an outrage that
Pat Robertson, the titular head of CBN (Christian
Broadcasting Network) will issue a senile statement that
Trump is in danger of losing his “Heavenly Mandate” if he
chooses to desert the Christian Kurds.
Heaven’s Mandate!
Trump’s attitude, character, utterances, and lifestyle is to
Christianity as a mosquito bite is to a nuclear blast!
So, regardless of the
smell of impeachment being in the air, for whatever reasons,
Trump’s ace card is his smug and secure knowledge that the
feckless GOP Senate will not dare to even darken his
doorstep with a vote that would remove him from office.
Those craven GOP
senators want to keep their fat cat salaries, pensions and
perks that the thought of seeking employment other than at
the public trough sends them into spasms of fear and
trembling.
So, if you are
smelling impeachment in the air, tell you what, according to
Herr Trump, it is a hoax from the Deep State and
orchestrated by the enemy of the people, the free press.
My prediction? Trump
is impeached but the GOP led Senate runs yellow and
continues to grovel at the throne of Trump and exonerates
him.
When that happens,
you just heard the first death knell of democracy in these
united states.
