George Conway has a op-ed with his reaction to the release of the Mueller Report and it will anger Trumkins and please haters of Trump like myself.

https://www.washingtonpost.com/opin...ory.html?noredirect=on&utm_term=.49cf3e89cefd

Here is his powerful conclusion

The investigation that Trump tried to interfere with here, to protect his own personal interests, was in significant part an investigation of how a hostile foreign power interfered with our democracy. If that’s not putting personal interests above a presidential duty to the nation, nothing is.
White House counsel John Dean famously told Nixon that there was a cancer within the presidency and that it was growing. What the Mueller report disturbingly shows, with crystal clarity, is that today there is a cancer in the presidency: President Donald J. Trump.
Congress now bears the solemn constitutional duty to excise that cancer without delay.

The entire op-ed should be read by ever thinking American.

Hmmm... IMO the bolded is the most honest thing you have posted about since Trump was elected.


Hate: intense hostility and aversion usually deriving from fear, anger, or sense of injury

Hate | Definition of Hate by Merriam-Webster

In November 2016 the worldview of many American citizens was turned upside-down as they watched the Electoral Map of the USA go more Red than Blue. Their "90% certain victory" turned to utter defeat, and the shock was visceral.

Pundits cried and moaned on TV, while partisans wailed and screamed to the sky. Like any significant emotional event, after the initial shock comes the attempt to place blame on anything and anyone but themselves.

"How could this happen," they think. "We are on the side of truth and justice" they moan. "This wasn't fair, someone had to have cheated!" they cry. Thus the blame game begins. Encourage false electors, there must have been some voter fraud, do recounts, compel the Congress to reject the results, try to use the 25th Amendment, do SOMETHING to make it all right again!

Then lo and behold, out pops the "Russian Collusion" narrative, developed as an "insurance policy" by a cabal of partisan government insiders only to be used in the unlikely event that the worst happens...Trump gets elected.

"Of course" cries the losers, "it had to be a coordinated effort between a traitorous, racist, sexist, homophobic, Islamophobic, xenophobic, etc., etc., and a foreign power!" Thus the Russian Collusion hoax gets started and the 24-hour moral panic effort gets off to a running start.

Yes, the OP demonstrates EXACTLY what the problem really is...HATE! "I hate this person for turning my world upside-down, so I am going to do everything in my power, blind myself to all truth, and join in a non-stop, all-hate, all-the-time effort to make things right again."

"They didn't prove he wasn't colluding, which means he is probably guilty. Even if there isn't enough evidence to show guilt he must have obstructed justice or the evidence would have been found." Typical guilty until proven innocent thinking of those who hate.

Well, as always you (and the op-ed writer) are entitled to your opinions and I must at least appreciate the naked honesty in admitting that the hate at least is very real. :coffeepap:

Nothing you wrote there changes that Trump is unfit for office and a thorough reading of the Mueller report says rather clearly in all of its evidence of Russian contracts, lies and presidential obstruction.
 
Captain IMO hate is the wrong word, I’m not sure there is a word to describe this pathetic excuse of a human we are calling President.

His “followers” can’t be accused of BLIND faith because they know at his core he is a lying cheating gas’s bag that normally wouldn’t be invited into their homes. HRC may or may not have been a worthy choice but the “faithful” were conditioned for years to “hate” her so tRumps victory was their victory. A victory they must cling to, to justify the paradigm they’ve brought in to.

His detractors, most of whom wouldn’t harm a fly, don’t HATE him; but they rightfully despise all he is and stands for.

Like George Conway we all love our country and want it to succeed. More than life we LOVE America; we are AmeriCANs!
