Six Democrats Introduce Articles of Impeachment of President Donald Trump

The Democrats hate Trump, not just because he's Trump, but because he claims to be a Republican who is willing to upset the apple cart of the establishment.  If, somehow, a different GOP candidate had won the 2016 Presidential Election, and he was also willing to challenge politics-as-usual, the treatment would be the same.  The accusations against Trump were planned against whoever the Republican would be a decade ago.  The Democrats were so close to creating a single-party socialist system with a powerful Clinton at the helm that they could taste it.

The strategy shifted from what they were doing (through creeping incrementalism), to "whatever it takes."  A part of that emergency procedure effort is to do anything and everything it takes to marginalize Trump, and any conservative Republican the Democrats see as a threat.  Roy Moore is being removed before he can even take a seat at the table.

Six Democrat representatives are going all the way when it comes to Trump, by introducing articles of impeachment against the president.

There's no crime.  No maladministration.  Trump has not committed perjury under oath like Bill Clinton did.  They just simply despise him, so they attack him with both barrels blazing.

“Given the magnitude of the constitutional crisis, there’s no reason for delay,” Representative Steve Cohen, D-TN, said in a statement regarding his co-sponsorship of the articles of impeachment.

What Constitutional Crisis?  If there is a Constitutional Crisis, it's not being caused by Trump.  It's a longer than two-century long crisis caused by the Democrat Party's allies throughout U.S. History in their use of unconstitutional concepts like "implied law" and "judicial review" to usurp the U.S. Constitution.  Trump's only crime is standing up to the Democrats in the kind of way that they have no reasonable response for.

They hate Donald Trump, not because of who he is, but because of what he is.  He can't be bought, he can't be shifted, and he is outside the system.  He is a wrecking ball, and he is slamming against the establishment.

The thing is, the Democrats know they won't succeed in achieving a removal from office of President Trump.  That's not what they are doing.  They are setting the stage.  Preparing for the onslaught of dirty politics against the man so that reelection is not only not possible, but to ensure that they are the ones able to grab the White House in 2020, and in 2018 grab at least the Senate (and perhaps the House) along the way.

It's not about the Constitution.  The Democrats use words like "constitution," but they actually see the original intent of that document as an obstacle to their ultimate Marxist plans.  The tactics we are seeing is all about their political power, and the fact that they are willing to obtain that political power any way they can, even if it is through deception, illegal means, and sinister ploys such as articles of impeachment filed for false reasons.

The top leadership of the Democrat Party is nervous about the call for impeachment.  While Maxine Waters is making the news often screaming "impeach 45," establishment Democrats like House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, and Democratic National Committee Chairman Tom Perez, have been quiet about it.  It worries them.  To the voters, it may look more like a negative for the Democrats.

Instead, the goal of the entrenched establishment Democrats is to force the Republicans to fail when it comes to major legislation like the repeal of Obamacare, or reforming the tax system - and then run on the claim that the GOP controlled Houses of Congress are a do-nothing Congress.

Then, if the Democrats could somehow gain control of the House, and the Speaker becomes Nancy Pelosi again, they would be in a better position to make Trump's final two years pure hell, and cripple him to a point that it neutralizes the conservative push the Republicans have somehow been able to manage since the election of Barack Obama in 2008.

In truth, what the Democrats have been doing in retaliation of the Donald Trump ascendancy to the White House has been downright Orwellian (George Orwell, author, 1984 and Animal Farm). Orwell, in 1984, wrote, "Every record has been destroyed or falsified, every book rewritten, every picture has been repainted, every statue and street building has been renamed, and every date has been altered. And the process is continuing day by day and minute by minute. History has stopped. Nothing exists except an endless present in which the Party is always right."

The concepts of newspeak and doublethink that Orwell came up with in his novel warning us about socialism is now what we call political correctness.  Reality has been distorted through the manipulation of language, history is being twisted (or purposely forgotten) in the halls of institutions of higher learning and by the destruction of historical artifacts and statues that don't reflect the new truth as it is being put out by the Democrats.  The liberal left is calling the opposition to their narrative "sufferers of a mental disorder", and they are demanding a reconditioning of people's mental attitude so that they also will fall in line with the new reality.

Orwell wrote, "the whole aim of Newspeak and Doublethink is to narrow the range of thought."

Sound familiar?  Could that be what political correctness is all about?

The thing is, the Democrat thought-process goes way beyond politics.  Their anger and anguish over Trump's election led to a "scream at the sky" temper tantrum event on the one year anniversary of his election.  It is a religiosity.  They religiously believe in the leftist socialist garbage being fed to them, and are 100% convinced they are 100% correct. . . hence, the intolerance of any opposing point of view.

They have been convinced that they are stopping the next great dictatorship.

Sure, they agree with socialism, but from their point of view, that's not what the NAZIsm and fascism Trump supports is all about.  It's about white supremacy.

Actually, NAZI stands for National Socialist German Worker's Party.

Socialism is the control of the means of production through government ownership of the means of production.  Fascism is the control of the means of production through government regulation of the means of production.  In short, socialism and fascism are the same when it comes to the ends they are trying to achieve.  Only the path to get there slightly differs.

The Democrats have a lot more in common with NAZIs and fascists than the Republicans ever could.

Like the fascist Nazis, the Democrats and their minions are shutting down opposing speech on college campuses across the country, demanding that historic statues and monuments associated with anything they deem offensive be taken down, and they have been demanding that people with opposing views be silenced, fined or arrested.

A system with a foundation embedded in the concept of liberty cannot allow such madness to continue, nor allow that kind of oppressive leftism to take a hold of the reins of the American Government.  Advocacy for constitutional restoration must be at the forefront of the conservative agenda.  Otherwise, we will continue blindly along Tytler's Cycle, where in the end we will settle for the eventuality of complete bondage.
