The Left is hoping to impeach the President of the United States. But impeaching Trump is just a means to an end, not the end itself.
The goal here is to silence us.
In fact, it is just one more in a long line of attempts to keep us uppity Americans from having a say in our self-government.
I absolutely believe that impeaching Trump is about us – our punishment for not bowing to our social betters.
The only crime President Trump has committed is putting the American people first.
And for the establishment – the Swamp if you will — that simply cannot stand.
So they seek to destroy him as a way to silence and punish us.
Impeaching Trump is the tool, not the goal.
Their hope is to so dispirit us that we throw up our hands and give up.
They want us at the point where we stalk off defeated thinking, “Why should we even try anymore?”
This isn’t new.
They’ve been doing this ever since Donald Trump announced his candidacy.
In fact, they’ve been doing this for years before Donald Trump even decided to run.
This is, as Angelo Codevilla famously put it in 2010, the Ruling Class versus the Country Class.
And billionaire Donald Trump became the unlikely champion of the Country Class – the regular folks whom Washington has scoffed at and ignored for decades.
Or as Ann Coulter put it in the summary of her book In Trump We Trust: E Pluribus Awesome!:
Donald Trump isn’t a politician — he’s a one-man wrecking ball against our dysfunctional and corrupt establishment. We’re about to see the deluxe version of the left’s favorite theme: Vote for us or we’ll call you stupid. It’s the working class against the smirking class.
Nobody in his right mind would think this “smirking class” would just lie down and let the American people take away its power.
They will fight with everything they have to keep their grip on our self-government.
Even if that means fighting dirty.
Last year, President Trump held a rally in West Virginia. And, among other hateful things said about it, was this tweet:
In a column titled There’s a reason for the sneering condescension of the Smirking Class, I wrote:
Do you know why the Left and the Media despise Donald J. Trump?
It isn’t because they think he’s a fascist. And it has nothing to do with Russia.
No. They despise Donald Trump because he reinvigorated a segment of the country who had given up on voting.
More importantly, he reinvigorated a segment of the country the Smirking Class didn’t want voting.
In late 2011 Rush Limbaugh pointed out a story in the New York Times by Thomas Edsall in which Edsall wrote that the Obama campaign made the conscious decision to write off white working class voters.
For Obama, this strategy worked because the Republicans nominated a squishy, cosmopolitan RINO to run against him.
So white working class voters did as they were expected. They stayed home.
In June 2015, the New York Times reported that Hillary would use the same strategy Obama did.
Screw the white working class. She was going after the Obama coalition of minorities and women.
And had things gone according to plan, she would have won.
If the GOP had nominated Jeb Bush as the Smirking Class had planned, the white working class would have stayed home again.
But that didn’t happen.
Instead, Donald Trump won the nomination.
And the tens of millions of working class voters who had given up came roaring back again.
Instead of being demoralized, they were energized.
And let’s be honest. The Democrats can’t win when working class voters are energized.
And that’s why the Smirking Class hates Donald Trump.
Nothing has changed.
They still want to shut us up.
But in 2016, they failed at keeping us from electing President Trump.
They failed at every subsequent smear campaign.
And their attempted backroom coup – or insurance policy — is falling apart.
So what’s left?
Well, impeaching Trump.
So they’re going to make 2018 all about impeaching Trump.
And in the intervening weeks, they hope to dispirit us, discourage us and silence us.
But I’m going to say the same exact thing now that I said before the 2016 election: Vote:
The only poll that matters is the election itself. This is the only one that will include not “possible voters,” not “likely voters,” but people who actually went out and cast their votes.
And in that poll, there are more of us.
The Enslaved Press may want to deny it, my friends, but there are more of us. And the best way to prove that to them is to vote.
Vote.
No matter what.
At the end of all of this, the truth is, you and I have more power over the outcome of this election than any poll or any “It’s Over” news report from the Enslaved Press.
We are the last surprise.
Vote — not just to stop them from impeaching Trump.
No.
Vote to stop them from silencing, subjugating and disenfranchising us.
The Smirking Class needs a win in November to keep us from reclaiming our own self-government.
We’re the ones who are standing in their way.
And come November, we have to be the ones to stop them.
They are playing fire of a civil war.
Do you hear the people sing?
Singing the songs of angry men?
It is the music of the people
Who will not be slaves again!
When the beating of your heart
Echoes the beating of the drums
There is a life about to start …
No he will not be impeached. Because they will not bring charges.
I always feel in the end this is all about illegal immigration. Tens of millions of criminals, and they are worth many many billions to Democrats and Republicans alike.
Im sorry to say this but yes he will be impeached, especially if Democrats take the house. Im not even certain Republicans will acquit in the Senate. These are very evil and selfish politicians.
Everything is about preventing the citizens from stopping the fundamental transformation of our country.
They have spent 30 years pursuing a bipartisan policy of non-enforcement of laws and borders.
They have invited 30 million fraudulently documented foreigners here against the will of the citizens.
They will do anything to stop US from restoring the rule of law and keeping our country.
Problem is, we’re already too silent. We don’t protest, riot, etc. The left knows this, and it comforts them.
I cannot imagine what the Left would have done to America if der Hildebeast were elected. I remembering reading things saying to the effect, ‘Wait until Hillary gets elected. Those conservatives won’t know what hit them!’ They are trying to do it without der Hildebeast using the media, the justice system, the learning institutions and money funneled in from people like George Soros and Tom Steyer. I believe it is being coordinated by people like Obama and the Clintons.
That has been my ringtone for some time now.
;-)
We won’t be silent , we won’t riot and destroy property like the asshole liberals. If they decide to try and revoke our right to choose our leader they will lose their lives.
Very nice.
Yes, indeed. It’s sort of both, it’s “how dare this interloper presume that he can govern the nation without the experience and stamp of approval from the Deep State,” and it’s also “how dare these ignorant middle American rubes ignore their betters and vote for this unqualified person”.
Actually, they know we will not riot, but it doesn’t comfort them.
Rioting is for losers.
Hillary wrote off working Americans too...
Medium style.
I was in The Swamp for the March for Justice.
The March For Swamp Heads will have a few million more people...
Rioting interferes with your aim when you’re trying to throw a length of boiled hemp over the branch of a DC cherry tree...
With lots of rope and baby Harp seal clubs...
There was only one jerk-off willing to get in the face of Rapin Bill's attackers - Larry FLynt.
There are MILLIONS of Deplorables who have blood in their eye over this BS.
There's gonna be trouble in Potomac River City if they try anything.
