I did not support Trump in 2016. But I support the rights of the 63 million who did.
You may be right that saving the GOP from itself may well be a lost cause. What I advocate is a two-pronged approach - strong support for the President in his battle against impeachment by the mob of kangaroos, and the clear-eyed realization that Trump's legacy, and the GOP's ultimate survival in the face of the socialist threat, requires him to not run for re-election so the demons can be confronted head-on without distraction.
And who among them will do that confronting?
The very agencies which are supposed to investigate wrongdoing in our government are ridiculously corrupt, those who are supposed to prosecute are ignoring the most egregious violations of not only law, but National Security, on so many levels while looking for a millimeter sized dust kitten to raise hell about, all on a partisan basis.
While I did not vote for Trump (I voted Constitution Party), I AM a believer that those who have sworn solemn oaths to uphold the Constitution and do their jobs should be held to their oaths, or should find a more suitable line of work. Surely there are stables which need cleaning somewhere.
However, by drawing fire, President Trump has enticed the Democrats to expose the virulent, rabid, foaming at the mouth partisanship that was formerly less evident to those who are not political junkies, the overwhelming bias of the Mainstream Media to any who will see, and the endemic multilevel corruption in agencies throughout government, and internationally, a sepsis which wreaks havoc on the proper functioning of those agencies.
It may not seem evident, but there is some culling of the ranks going on, although the progress is less evident in the form of indictments, arrests, and convictions, than I would like to see. Some very high profile people who have displayed patent disregard for the laws of, and this country, itself, remain at large, while investigations seem to be only permitting the location of potentially damaging evidence and witnesses, intel which can be (and likely is being) used to destroy that evidence and silence those witnesses. Those who are not made into examples will likely heed those who are, and nothing less than a complete sweep will be adequate to ensure the safety of those who remain.
Could this have been ripped open, at least among those not mesmerized by the snake charmers of the MSM, without the bombast and rancor present in today's political discourse? Perhaps not, or not so effectively.
Being dispassionate is fine for strategy, but in tactics, sometimes it is better to anger your enemy, then they will make mistakes. Considering his election, populist in nature, played heavily on the anger of the masses against the perfidy of our elected and appointed Federal Officials, every strike back at that extensive fauna of swamp dwellers in DC, present and former, has the unmitigated potential to garner votes.
