So Drumpf admits to making a deal with a foreign power to influence the 2020 election.
This
is how out of touch he is - he either doesn't understand how wrong
that is (because he can't be bothered with the distinction between
business relationships and government-based relationships between
nations) or he doesn't care. Perhaps because he thinks he's the Golden
Boy who can't be touched; that he won't be caught and won't be punished.
This is the narcissistic hubris of an ego-centric sociopath. He might
have flown high, but he has learned zilch on the way. There is the smell
of a Greek tragedy in the air, a downfall of his own making. Much like
Nixon.
I imagine Ms Pelosi finally sighing, throwing up her hands and saying, Jiminy Cricket -- it's so obvious, there's not much I can do now. Drumpf's action are structured as a dare. And so now, finally, we have impeachment actions.
This
not to say that we can predict how far it will go or what will happen
next. But Drumpf is so obviously uncontrollable by anyone, that it is
now anyone's guess what he will do or say as the pressure mounts and the
investigations begin. I'm sure many Republicans just want to throw
their own hands up and say - you got yourself into this mess, get yourself out of it.
Because it's not like he listens to anyone anyway. So there you have
it. Impeachment is now on the table and investigations have begun.
And
as far as his protests - who really listens to what Tiny-Hand Drumpf
has to say anymore? He lies and hyper-exaggerates every little thing, so
who can believe anything he says? I don't. Will there be a civil war? I
doubt it. Maybe there'll be one in his mind as he wanders around his
private mental-institution jail cell. He can call this whole thing a
hoax or a hoarcrux, but I no longer care - because it won't be that
funny or made-up when he's in the witness box. I hope Kamala Harris gets
to grill him and grill him good. On national TV - because then we just
might see what a coward he really is.
It also shows
you how insecure he is about winning the election on his own merits -
that he has to cheat to win, just as he did in 2016. Just like students
who don't do their work or don't understand the subject matter resort to
cheating because they can't accept either their own limits or the
consequences of their inactions. Because this whole thing smells as
rotten as roadkill skunk on a hot day - it shows us that Drumpf is
familiar with this routine; that this is not the first time he has
(traitorously) reached out to a foreign country to influence our
elections. And that he's capable of doing it again.
This makes passing Election Security legislation imperative. Better remind my MOC about that right now.
