| Democratic Representative, Adam Schiff - Witch Hunter in Chief |
I have no clue what they will
report. I don’t know if any crimes were committed by the President or – if there
were – whether they rise to the level of ‘high crimes and misdemeanors’ - the
sort of amorphous standard for impeachment.
A lot of people think that report will be devastating.
Perhaps. There have already been people connected with the campaign indicted
for crimes based on this investigation. But I am not so sure that will be the
case. My guess is that – to the dismay of those who would like to see the
President go - after a long and thorough investigation, the report will fall short
of proving that any crimes were intentionally committed by the President – or if
they were they will fall short of being
impeachable offenses.
I have mixed feelings about this. My views about the
President are well known. I believe he is an embarrassment to the high office
he holds. But – leaning conservative as I do - I support many (but not all)
of his policies. Both foreign and domestic. So if he remains in office, I will at
least see his policies being continued. If he is impeached, that will leave Vice President Mike Pence in charge. Whose political views are mostly in concert with my
own. And he will surely be an improvement in how he treats the office he will
assume.
Which brings me to the Democrats. They are consumed with
ridding the Oval Office of its current occupant. They want a belt and
suspenders. On the outside chance that Mueller will somehow exonerate the
President, they will find other ways to do it. And as I have said in the past. This
isn’t about his demeanor in office. (Although that is what they are selling to
sympathetic Republicans.) It is really about politics.
The current
philosophy of the Democratic Party is so Leftist, that many of the announced are
tripping all over themselves to show how far left they have gone. Some of the
even ‘moderate’ Democratic candidates (Like Amy Klobuchar) have for example come out in favor
of the Green New Deal. Which is so extreme that if implemented would destroy
our economy. So much for moderate Democrats!
(This is why billionaire Starbuck owner Howard Shultz – a lifelong
Democrat - will be running as an independent
– once he officially announces that he is a candidate. He sees the both mainstream
parties as extremist. But I digress.)
Now that Democrats control the house, they are pulling out
all stops. They have announced all manner of independent congressional using
their subpoena power towards the goal of getting rid of Trump - their impediment to
further their leftist goals they believe are the most ethical goals on the
planet. Goals that include tax policies whose purpose is the redistribution of wealth. That is the definition of socialism. Which I call stealing
form the rich to give to the poor.
Towards that end they will put the President under the most intense
of microscopes in order to find some crime that will stick.. No matter how
unrelated to the current investigation it is. Like getting a copy of trump’ tax
returns to see if they can find anything impeachable that the IRS might have missed.
If that isn’t the definition of a witch hunt, I don’t know what is.
