FRiend Lodi, allow me to caution you against falling into the trap of defeatism that I just argued against.


No defeatism here. Just a realization based on a mountain of evidence that the GOP hates POTUS every bit as much as the Democrats do and that they do all they can to obstruct the MAGA agenda we voted for. Regardless, I am grateful for everyday that President Trump is in the White House.

I see your point, but I would hesitate to condemn the entire GOP.

I will grant you that the GOP has forgotten how to win — beaten down by the communist media for generations, they are afraid of their own shadows and afraid above all of being called “racist.”

But everyone loves a winner, and more to the point, weak-willed people will sometimes find the gumption to follow a winner. And Trump is certainly a winner.

“...TV and radio hosts like Rush, Hannity, Laura, Tucker, Mark Levin, Graham Ledger, etc. for reporting facts and truth against the otherwise media cabal that gleefully spreads anti-Trump lies 24/7.”

And who is listening to them who doesn’t already know the facts? Liberals sport “Faux News” bumper stickers, but they don’t even know what channel it’s on, let alone watch it. It is very easy for the mainstream media to spin a “damning report”. In fact, Chuck Todd portrayed today’s IG report as an attack on Comey by Trump.

It’s doable but a bit more difficult to spin criminal charges. But at least criminal charges have SOME impact, where damnning reports have none. Even if prosecutors fear a liberal jury will aquit anybody who tried to bring Trump down, at least put them through the expense and inconvenience of a trial. None of them will lose their homes or their livelihoods like Trump associates did (Comey’s corruption has paid off handsomely), but at least interrupt their speaking tours, book deals and TV appearances for a good long while. Because, as you say, the wheels of justice turn very slowly.

What I expect from Bush associates Durham and Barr are more damning reports and maybe a “special commission” to recommend changes in policies and procedures to “ensure that this never happens again”.
