This isn’t an administration. It’s an ongoing criminal conspiracy.
By Max Boot

https://www.washingtonpost.com/opini...al-conspiracy/

Quote:
In the past, I would have argued for leaving Trump alone after he steps down so as to end our “long national nightmare.” But now I am convinced that Trump’s wrongdoing is so pervasive and brazen that he must be prosecuted to uphold the rule of law and deter even greater lawbreaking by future presidents. If elected, President Biden should appoint a special counsel of unimpeachable integrity — a widely respected former U.S. attorney or federal judge — with a wide-ranging mandate to investigate Trump and his administration. That prosecutor should finally summon Trump to testify orally under oath or assert his Fifth Amendment privilege against self-incrimination — something Mueller never did. If Trump did testify, it would almost certainly result in perjury charges.

Trump could try to short-circuit justice by trying to pardon himself before he leaves office — or even by resigning a few hours early and having Vice President Pence sworn in to issue a pardon (as President Gerald Ford did for Richard Nixon). In that case, the special counsel would be limited to investigating Trump’s accomplices (unless they are also pardoned) and helping state prosecutors. But the special counsel should still issue a comprehensive report on Trump’s lawbreaking. We must expose and root out this ethical rot before it eats away at the foundations of our democracy.

Feh. We don't have ethical rot eating away at democracy. We have demolition charges starting to go off.

Our politics are going third world and Boot is still trying to think up 1st world solutions.

I don't think anyone has the answers on just how to deprogram this cult yet.

It is apparent education and the truth will have little effect on them.

I fear what it will finally take to wake them up.

If nothing up to now has yet it seems.


Just how bad must it get?

It became one, in the natural way. One person's comments led to another. Really, you think there's a conversational conspiracy among us sneaky leftists? Aimed at, what, irritating you?

You may think yourself important enough for that, but no, not really....

Orange Shitstain went full authoritarian in his latest Fox News interview
Asshole's conspiracy theory about a plane full of “thugs” is exactly what a dictator would say.

I was going to respond to a post or two here and realized there is no point. So I'll just use your post as a springboard.

And the challenge is this: I agree with all of the generic remarks they are saying because they are all projection. i.e. they are describing the left in their insults to conservatives, Trump and Trump supporters. There is really no need to respond to that tripe other than to call it out for what it is.
