In 1977 country singer Johnny Paycheck popularized a song entitled "Take this job and shove it."
Take this job and shove it
I ain't working here no more
My woman done left
And took all the reasons
I was working for
You better not try to stand in my way
As I'm walking out the door
Take this job and shove it
I ain't working here no more
The rest of the lyrics can be found here
Yesterday Donald Trump likened the treatment being inflicted on him by the House Democrat Secret Police as a "lynching."
It was met with much derision- "fury" even.
“That is one word that no president ought to apply to himself,” the South Carolina representative James Clyburn, the House majority whip, said on CNN. “I’m not just a politician … I’m a product of the south. I know the history of that word.”democrats immediately leaped to prove what a collection of hypocritical morons they areThe California representative Karen Bass, chairwoman of the Congressional Black Caucus, told CNN Trump’s “lynching” tweet was consistent with his pattern of throwing out “racial bombs” to give “red meat” to his base when his back is against the wall.
In 1998 Jerry (the Hutt) Nadler accused Republicans of running a "lynch mob" against Bill Clinton
I am the president’s defender in the sense that I haven’t seen anything yet that would rise, in my opinion, to the level of impeachable offense. …Then there was Greg MeeksI wish we could get this over with quickly. … In pushing the process, in pushing the arguments of fairness and due process the Republicans so far have been running a lynch mob.
Democrats are being total hypocrites right now in response to @realDonaldTrump's tweet this morning.

Here's CNN
How about Harry Reid and John Kerry?And I can state unequivocally after watching Thursday's Benghazi House committee hearing and considering the email transcripts, media statements, debates and intense partisan focus on the former secretary of state for the past few years that she has been treated unfairly. Unprofessionally. And frankly, disrespectfully.
I believe that like Justice Clarence Thomas before her, she has been publicly lynched in a way that we Americans only reserve for uppity black men and uppity professional women who don't know their place. She has been dragged through the media and partisan mud of Capital Hill politics and asked to answer questions that she has already answered. She has been attacked. Accused. And berated by members of Congress who should know better.

And no discussion of hypocrisy would be complete without Quid Pro Joe Biden who today said:
Impeachment is not "lynching," it is part of our Constitution. Our country has a dark, shameful history with lynching, and to even think about making this comparison is abhorrent. It's despicable. https://t.co/QcC25vhNeb— Joe Biden (@JoeBiden) October 22, 2019
But back then:

Lynching is a racist term. When Repubs use it.
When Biden and others complained that Repubs were lynching Clinton when he was being impeached - Well, that’s different.
Double Standards always apply to liberals.
The clan lynched more white people for not selling their land farms and businesses than they lynched blacks.
The KKK a bunch of white democrats see nothing has hanged.
Remember, Bill Clinton was called the first Black POTUS so Democrats using the word “lynching” made perfect sense to them.
Jane Lynch
American Actress AND RACIST!!!!!
Jane Marie Lynch is an American actress, voice actress, author, singer and comedian. She is best known for her role as Sue Sylvester in the musical television series Glee. She also gained fame in Christopher Guest’s improv mockumentary pictures such as Best in Show.
Especially since Democrats were the ones doing the actual lynchings.
You can say that again...and again...😀
We’re gonna need a new dictionary if they keep marking out the prohibited words. That dictionary is getting smaller every day!
It’s been generations since a Democrat lynched an African American. They need to get over it.
Soooooo, the Dems are saying all the bank robbers and horse thieves that were lynched in the old west were black? How could they say that!?!
I’ve always equated lynching with the old west. What happened in the south was incidental.
Actually this is not a lynching yet. This DC debacle more closely resembles the saloon bar courtroom of Judge Roy Bean, the hanging judge, the only law west of the Pecos. They were either hanged by a tree or a boxcar but be assured the accused were hanged. No witnesses, no jury just the drunken self-proclaimed Judge Roy Bean. If only Trump would have used the term hanging instead of lynching would it still have been an outrage?
If double standards didn’t exist, Democrats wouldn’t have any standards.
As with the Inquisition, the number of lynching victims is much smaller than imagined. Fully one-third of them were white and, as another poster pointed out, they were were almost always lynched by Klansmen. Further, the black victims weren’t picked out at random. There was always some reason — they’d offended local white sensibilities in some way, usually having to do with real or imagined sexual offenses against white girls and women. (Obviously this is not to excuse but to explain.)
Bill Clinton was a defendant in a Civil Rights, Sexual harassment lawsuit.
And He committed perjury, and instructed others to do the same.
What exactly has Trump done? /rhetorically
John Lynch, former NFL safety.
Merrill Lynch
White people were lynched too. Over 1200 white people were reported to have been lynched.
OK then. How about a series of necktie parties?
