Cohen and Manafort have Nothing to do with Russian Collusion

Special Counsel Robert Mueller has been investigating Donald J. Trump in search of evidence that would reveal that the President, when he was still Candidate Trump, was guilty of collusion with the Russians because the Democrats can't admit that Hillary Clinton lost because the American People preferred the Republican businessman over the wicked witch of the east.  The liberal left Democrats are now jumping for joy because Cohen and Manafort are guilty of all kinds of things that have nothing to do with Russian Collusion or Mueller's investigation.  None of what is being trumpeted as a triumph by the hard left media involves Mueller’s case.  Cohen and Manafort are guilty of being scumbags, not Russian collusion or obstruction as it relates to Donald J. Trump.

There was never any Russian collusion or Trump initiated obstruction of justice as the Democrats claim, and some judges are even fed up with the whole thing.

Cohen stretched the boundaries of the law on his own.  Manafort has always been an unsavory character.  In both cases, they did so while having nothing to do with Trump.

The liberal left is dying to nail Trump, so they are acting as if the latest and greatest does so, and it doesn't.

They are getting their hopes up over things where there will be nothing that comes out of it that they can use to slam Trump. They know they can't constitutionally force him to interview under oath with Mueller, so they are looking for other ways to corner him and remove him.

This is not about law, or the truth.  It's an ideological witch hunt that the Democrats and their minions are chasing because they fear that they are losing their grip on the establishment machine they've been building for over a century (if not longer).  They are willing to lie, they are willing to use the deep state, and they are willing to falsely investigate an innocent man to get their power back.

They are even willing to stomp all over the U.S. Constitution.  Mueller, after all, is in place unconstitutionally.  This whole thing is illegal and mind-numbingly stupid.  But, the Democrats are desperate.  They madly need to get rid of Trump.  He's not only a danger to their endeavor, he has promised to dismantle it, and he is doing so.

Mueller does not have the unlimited power the liberal left claims he has, and Trump, as the chief head in charge of the executive branch can fire him if he desires (since the Department of Justice is, whether most people realize it or not, a part of the executive branch of government).  Trump hasn't because of perception.  The whole game the Democrats are playing is not about truth, it is about perception, and they are working night and day to make sure the impression the voters get is that Trump needs to be impeached yesterday.  They want you to believe that Donald Trump’s presidency is illegitimate, even though they have no evidence, they still don't have some kind of legal report supporting their accusations, and they haven't been able to gaze upon his tax returns in the hopes that it backs up their claim.

They are trying bait to Trump into firing Mueller. If they can't prove he is guilty of obstruction of justice, then they want to bait him into doing something they can use to make it seem like that is what he is doing.  They already think he's guilty of obstruction because of Trump firing Comey.  If he fires Mueller or Rosenstein, then they think that will be enough for them to nail Trump with their bogus charge of obstruction ... twice.

It's a flurry of expectations without any evidence of collusion with the Russians.  If anything, these investigations are not proving collusion between Trump and the Russians as much as they are showing us how sleazy and corrupt the Democrats truly are.

They want authoritarian control, and they can't accomplish it with Trump in office, and the Republicans in control of the two Houses of Congress.  They want to rule and control everything you do and say, rule and control your travels on the internet, centrally control the economy (even though Trump's free market strategies have proven to work wonderfully), and they constantly remind us of how much they hate the capitalistic system that we have been using that has made America the most prosperous country in history.

The fact is, under Obama we were thrust further into a coup designed to destroy our liberty and overthrow our Constitution, and as far as the liberal left is concerned, we are in a civil war that they must win, and one they can't win until they get rid of Donald J. Trump.

They think Cohen and Manafort having anything guilty about them, even if it has nothing to do with what the Democrats are after, is a point in their favor.  It's the job of the court of public opinion to say otherwise, and the expose the liberal left for who and what they are.

The 2018 midterm elections are not a referendum on Trump as much as they are a decision by Americans regarding where we go next.  Do we remain a constitutional republic, or do we chase the socialist nightmare being presented by the liberal left Democrats?
