While Trump is indeed a pain in the ass, he might be bad, but he's not that bad. The amount of times that the media screeched on him and then redacted their statements is just staggering. MSNBC, CNN and New York Times. How many times have they unleashed a "bombshell" only to redact it within 24 hours to clarify that they don't actually have any facts?
Now. I'm not going to even attempt to pretend that Trump is faultless, because Lord knows, he's not. His complete submission to zionists is a problem. His idiotic reality tv show attitude is immature (but funny), his aggression towards Iran (good on him for backing out though) is counter productive to efforts being made to extract US servicemen out of the middle east.
But then, I also won't attempt to say that Trump is a hack. He is the first POTUS in decades that visited North Korea. Let that sink in. His manipulation of the media is faultless. Russiagate fell apart. It was simply fake. There was a two years investigation, and what happened in the end? No evidence.
And now, what happens now, how is it different from the previous impeachment scandals? This is exactly the same thing as Russiagate. In fact, I think that Trump intentionally drove the media to Ukrainegate, to make the left look like fake news. Trump WANTS you to go after impeachment. He does something "stupid" so that the left, instead of fighting Trump with policy, spends 99% of their time on impeachment which is never going to happen because there's no evidence.
The "whistleblower" isn't one. It's basically some dude who heard a rumor. He wasn't even anywhere near Trump. In fact, it's quite possible that the "whistleblower" was paid by Trump to create a spectacle for the public. To get the attention away from Democrats who actually can beat him. Away from Elisabeth Warren, away from Tulsi Gabbard, and towards the likes of the Squad.
He's baiting you. He's trolling you. And instead of ignoring him and concentrating on fighting back with policy ... You demand impeachment, for the 999th time.
"Insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results."
I don't want to defend this man .. But what else is left out there? The left, right now, instead of fighting for the votes which they need, the moderates ... Instead of that, it's impeachment, impeachment, impeachment, impeachment. Democratic policy is barely 1% of the news when you google for DNC. All of it is impeachment.
And as I mentioned before ... The vast majority of Americans simply doesn't care. The vast majority doesn't care if Trump says mean words, nor does it care for impeachment. What Americans care about is economy. Is border security. And instead of fighting on that front, the left is 0bsessed with Trump.
So yes. Trump has the democrats exactly where he wants them. And that's what pisses me off the most. That instead of ignoring a troll, the democrats are essentially lolcows. Instead of working on policy, the left is too busy calling out the OK sign and bowl cut as a hate symbol.
I might be selfish in this but ... As a centrist, I don't give a damn about hate. Or even about racism, so long as it's not violent. I don't care about the patriarchy. I don't care about which bathroom trannies get to use. I care about border security, pulling the troops out of the middle east and job security.
But no. Impeachment. Impeachment. Impeachment. Impeachment. Wake up, Democrats. Fight back. Don't just bite on the hook ...
