Our Nation Is Under ATTACK. Where are the Republicans?
This is not a game of checkers but of CHESS. Knock out the King and the game is over! In a Democracy ELECTIONS ARE THE DNA AND THE KING!
What good is BILLIONS on defense when the SOUL of our nation - our elections are under attack from Russia externally and Republicans internaty with VOTER SUPPRESSION.
1. Wiki Leaks founder Julian Assange says he was offered a pardon if he slants his story to protect Russia! this must be investigated in public hearings. We need a SPECIAL PROSECUTOR!
2. Our Intelligence experts have AGAIN told Congress that America is, and will be under attack from Russia. All to assist Trump in his election.
3. Trump responds by putting a hack in charge of Intel and nothing to defend our elections.
4. I just checked the FOXNEWS' website. NOTHING about the above.
We have gone BEYOND Trump. FoxNews and the Republican Party are now co-conspirators in this TREASON. They are NORMALIZING this nonsense.
THE ISSUE NOW IS DEMOCRATS!
Yes, i realize we are in a heavy primary fight. But the time has now come for Democrats in Congress to STOP referring to their "Colleagues across the aisle" and DEMAND:
REPUBLICANS STAND UP FOR AMERICA!
Stop calling them "collegages" but KOMRADES. Forget about if you are for or against Bernie Sanders. You know they will use smear language against Bernie, Elizabeth or who ever is the candidate as they did against Barack Obama.
We are facing an ATTACK against our Democracy every bit as dangerous as a MIRV Missile Attack.
WHAT WE NEED NOW
1. Democrats need to UP THE RHETORIC and WAVE THE FLAG.
2. Round the clock commercials, not for a particular candidate but to ATTACK TRUMP and his FELLOW TRAVELERS IN TREASON!
3. We need ALL of the FORMER LIVING PRESIDENTS OF BOTH PARTIES TO STAND UP AND DO ROUND THE CLOCK SPEECHES AND RALLIES. No it is not GOD SAVE AMERICA but for those in BOTH PARTIES who served as PRESIDENT to STAND UP FOR AMERICA and call for our ELECTIONS TO BE DEFENDED!
4. Use RIGHT WING RHETORIC. We live in an era of LICENTIOUS PERMISSIVENESS where loyalty to tribe comes before LOYALTY TO AMERICA. The BLEEDING HEARTS in America at FOX NEWS want to forgive this treasonous behavior.
The time has come for THE SILENT MAJORITY to stand up to KGB PUTIN and his FELLOW TRAVELERS in the Republican Party.
IF MOSCOW MITCH and his Republican cohorts will not STAND UP FOR OUR ELECTIONS THEY MUST BE CALLED TRAITORS. We need to impeach AG Barr and restore LAW and ORDER at DOJ!
No more "My colleagues on the other side of the aisle". Folks we are talking about TREASON!
IMPEACH AG BARR and YES IMPEACH TRUMP AGAIN. Dereliction of duty. He swore an oath to DEFEND America.
This is not SILLY SEASON. This could be the end of America as we know it. What if Russia uses our confusion to attack Western Europe or Kim attacks South Korea? What if China acts up?
THE TIME HAS COME TO STAND UP FOR AMERICA -
The Republican Party may have to go. No I am not saying we need a one party system. But rather SANE REPUBLICANS should break away. The Federalists and Whigs died. Now it is time for either the DEATH of the Republican Party or the DEATH OF AMERICA!
It is not TRUMP that made it this way. But Republicans REACTION to Trump.
The QUESTION now is: WHAT WILL DEMOCRATS DO?

(1,077 posts)I am terrified by what I see happening to our country and the rule of law. I live in a totally blue state, but I am calling my Senators and Representative and asking them to revolt against these traitors.

(5,057 posts)The Republicans love this. Theyve wanted someone like Тяцмр with the guts to tear down the system forever. Theyre benefitting from this, they dont care about the rule of law, patriotism or any of that bullshit. Those are just buzzwords to gull the idiots.
I really dont think the Democrats have any idea how to deal with this. I dont know if there actually is anything they can do. Weve always relied on the courts and tradition and decency to prevail and its not going to this time. These people just dont give a fuck and theres nothing to stop them.

(471 posts)I would like to think Dems know how to deal with this. Looking for a sign, reassurance. This is grave. Ready to take to the streets in protest, hope theres a movement to do so en masse.

(24 posts)I understand that Bush II's mom hated Trump and had a count down clock to the end of his term. I hope the surviving Bush, and the three remaining Republican Vice Presidents can step to the front and call for Trump's impeachment #2.
We have at least Dereliction of Duty. That assumes that he is not a ACTIVE collaborator with Putin but instead got hooked by his EGO as he doesn't want to be seen as a invalid president.
But the use of his property for personal gain, Helskinki, AG Barr interfering in the rule of law, Calling on Russia in 2016 to interfere.
But the problem began BEFORE 2016. Foxnews went unchallenged. Sure Obama might disagree about Birtherism, Death Panels but this required a MASSIVE and SUSTAINED fight for TRUTH.
Democrats as one of you above mentioned are just to trusting.
But we need #Tom Steyer and Mike Bloomberg to divert some funding to Steyer's organization for IMPEACHMENT. All Republicans must be labeled TRAITORS if they support this.
Yet many believe the election will solve it? WTF? What kind of idiocy could Putin do? Now our primaries are also the target.
IF Trump does loose and Putin allows it, will he and FOXNEWS cry foul? Will Trump try to stay in the White House?
We need ADS ON FOX NEWS about RUSSIA and TRUMP. Their audience is in the dark. This is where Bloomberg , Steyer and Soros could help.
