Posted by AlM on Thu Jun 8 02:51:37 2017, in response to Re: Are we winning yet?, posted by SMAZ on Wed Jun 7 21:06:04 2017. Giving out state secrets to Russia because of Kompromat is not evading the rule of law? Probably not. There is no evidence that Trump compromised Israeli intelligence because he is being blackmailed rather than because he's a stupid moron. And if it were, impeachment and conviction would be the cure. I don't think Ryan's and McConnell's support of Trump would hold if there were proof of blackmail. What would be evading rule of law would be flouting an order of the Supreme Court and getting away with it. |

That's what elections are for.It's about giving up the sovereignty and Independence that We The People of these United States of America have spent over 200 years earning, expanding, consolidating and taking for granted. The moment our secrets and policies are subject to the whims of a major foreign adversary are independence is gone. We become a mere puppet state. The moment our allies stop passing us terrorism-related intelligence because traitors in the White House pass it on to common adversaries and put the lives of their own sources at risk, our very safety is in peril. Our Founders had foreseen this possibility and had thus carefully crafted a set of checks and balances to correct such a dire situation through the impeachment process. What they did not foresee is a Congress that not only is not composed of Patriots such as themselves but one that puts Party over Country. If Congress doesn't do it there is this: He could have wrote this today: the people can not be all, & always, well informed. the part which is wrong [. . .] will be discontented in proportion to the importance of the facts they misconceive. if they remain quiet under such misconceptions it is a lethargy, the forerunner of death to the public liberty. we have had 13. states independant 11. years. there has been one rebellion. that comes to one rebellion in a century & a half for each state. what country before ever existed a century & half without a rebellion? & what country can preserve it’s liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance? let them take arms. the remedy is to set them right as to facts, pardon & pacify them. what signify a few lives lost in a century or two? the tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots & tyrants. it is it’s natural manure. Thomas Jefferson November 13 1787 |

They would defend him and carry his water just like they are doing now. Party over Country. I pray for a coup d'etat. |

In the absence of evidence that Trump is deliberately sabotaging the country, I prefer an elected and moronic Trump to an unelected Mattis. Remember that when Assad came to power there was such relief because he was so much more reasonable than his father. |

Every president has made occasional unintentional errors that have been quite detrimental to our country. Trump is obviously going at it at a much higher rate, but you have to make an allowance for unintentional error. |

General al-Sisi was viewed as an excellent choice to clean up the incompetence and malfeasance in Egypt.Yes, sometimes democracies kill themselves off, the best example being Germany in 1933. But military coups have an even worse record of success than the bumbling of democracies. |

Egypt turned out ahead.Egypt hasn't had a legacy of hundreds of years of democracy. Germany had more of it, but still not as much. |

Germany had more of it, but still not as much.All the more reason to think that the democratic process in the United States can survive Trump, and that a coup would be much more dangerous for the future of American democracy than Trump is. Right now you have the recently fired director of the FBI calling the president a liar and a defamer. That's not a sign that Trump is doing well even if his intentions are to undermine democracy. |

By the time Mueller is done every single Russian activity, and its precise connection to Trump people, where applicable, will be thoroughly documented. |

If anything, he's actually understating the issue. Think about it: a known adversary conducted a deliberate "active measures" espionage campaign against our election process, with the specific goal of undermining one Presidential candidate for the benefit of the other. That is a direct threat to the continued existence of the United States as a functional democracy. |
