Why thank you.
You mused about the first salvo.... and this has possibly more to do with ensuring the Midterms go Democrat than a direct challenge to Trump.
Mueller and the Manafort convictions today will go a long way towards speeding that track of the velvet coup along on it's own.
How do we know all of DC has not been politically weaponized by the Clintons and Obama and the Marxists? Taking it all down via setting public examples to affect political outcomes is what we are witnessing I think. I mean it baffled me why it was, with all the evidence we little people discovered about everyone from Lois Lerner to Benghazi to the E-mail server, that the Republicans REFUSED to push those issues beyond empty kabuki theater hearings without so much as a slap on the wrist for any of them.
Maybe they were told point-blank what the end game was and given a choice: be part of the New Order, or get wiped out by it. All of this maybe the very nasty examples they are showcasing to everyone.
And a climate of fear and/or retribution ensues - and we enter territory NONE of us are mentally prepared to deal with.
@INVAR We've both spoken out on these forums that they were too much alike,you more than I.
I've often wondered "why"?
The obvious answer was power, but even that left me not 100% convinced that was all.
Fear is also a powerful motivator, and not just fear of losing power, but fear of being exposed.
These 2 factors, I think are the combination that keeps real change, back to what we all want, a constitutionally representative republic, from becoming a reality.
