That is an extremely sobering truth that we have to come to terms with.
I do not make that charge lightly. There have been other presidents who grossly abused their powers and embarrassed the office--Richard Nixon and George W. Bush immediately come to mind.
But this is different. This is worse.
Donald Trump needs to be [div style="display:inline; background-color:#FF6600;"]legally removed from office and imprisoned for the rest of his natural life.
Period.
That is the hardest part for me to accept: the delay, effort, & additional damage done, etc of it happening the right way.
We must remind ourselves how the hindsight will be from historians, from Trump, from his collaborators, and from the entire world's perspective of having had the entire, seemingly irrevocably conflicted partisan system they tried to destroy coalesce together to strip their POWER, WEALTH & INFLUENCE will be worth it.
It has to be to prove that not only are all of these crooks wrong, that their political philosophy failed because of it being so wrong.
Rhetorical question Tommy, how is it you manage to fit 50 stars in that tiny flag when the trump white house can't manage it in over 4 times the space?
