(3,822 posts)When Nixon rigged the 1968 election by treason (deal with Vietnam)...Johnson stayed quiet "for the larger good".
When Ford pardoned Nixon for criminal action to rig the 1972 election...it was for "the larger good".
When Reagan rigged the 1980 election (deal with Iran), Congress looked away "for the larger good".
When Reagan sold arms to Iran, prosecutions were limited and pardons issued (thanks Bill Barr)..."for the larger good".
When George W. Bush stole the 2000 election, Kerry and the Senate stood down..."for the larger good".
Democrats and citizens have been enabling treasonous behaviors by Republicans since 1968! We have cowered under their corruption because we have not demonstrated the courage needed to fight back. POWER IS NEVER SURRENDERED VOLUNTARILY.
We, as citizens, MUST find the courage to apply the necessary tools of resistance to this corrupt regime. We must make it unbearable for GOP legislators (at all levels) to maintain these crimes. We MUST hold Trump, Barr, and other co-conspirators accountable. SERIOUS TIME IN PRISON IS REQUIRED!
Do not vote for any candidate who will, once again, let "the good of the nation" argument delude us into believing that these criminals will never do it again. THEY ARE HARD WIRED to obtain and hold power for personal gain...without restraint.
A restoration agenda is required:
1. End gerrymandering.
2. Elect a Congress that will pass and
ammendment overturning Citizen's United.
3. Mediate the ill-gotten gains of the Trump
administration. Impeach ALL federal judges
appointed on his watch.
4. Life sentences in Federal Prison for
Treason, Obstruction of Justice, Abuse
of Power, and violation of the Emoluments
Clause.
5. Aggressively pursue an agenda on
immigration, climate, guns, criminal
reform and adjusted spending priorities.
6. Liquidate THE TRUMP ORGANIZATION
and the money-laundering banks that
finance it.
We are NOT a 50‐50 country. A majority wants respected government that answers to ALL Americans. A majority want better opportunities and a level playing field. A majority wants dignity and hope as expressed by a viable safety net. A majority does not want to send their treasure and their children to war...protecting oil fields and dictators.
