Impeachment is not Just About Trump: It’s About Intimidating his Supporters
DB Daily Update ^ | David Blackmon

Posted on 01/22/2021 7:01:58 AM PST by EyesOfTX

Many of you are no doubt wondering why it is that congressional Democrats and their shameful RINO supporters are intent upon going through with a Senate trial to finalize their latest scam impeachment of Donald J. Trump. After all, Mr. Trump is now a private citizen, and the impeachment process is clearly intended to be applied only to active holders of federal office by the Constitution.

But, Constitution be damned, Nancy Pelosi made it clear yesterday that she and her fellow evil minions plan to force this process through to the bitter end in an effort to ban Trump from ever holding public office again. That is how truly frightened the UniParty Democans and Republicrats remain of this singular man, without question the most accomplished American president in modern times.

VDO.AI

Well, wonder no more, as the corrupt hacks at Slate have a piece out today that fully explains the UniParty’s rationale for hounding Trump until he is safely neutered. That piece, written by despicable hack Dahlia Lithwick, details an interview conducted with Juliette Kayyem, who served as assistant secretary at the Department of Homeland Security under President Barack Obama, because of course she is an Obama minion. What else would she be?

Here are some excerpts from that piece at Slate:

Dahlia Lithwick: I want to start by asking you about this phrase stochastic terrorism because you’ve been saying it and saying it. And I feel like I wrote it this week, and then one of my dear friends was like, “What the hell does that mean?” Can you explain what it means?”

Juliette Kayyem: It doesn’t roll off the tongue, I know. I think the first time I used it publicly was in 2018. I had been looking at what Trump was doing, and inciting violence was not the right terminology, because it was a particular type of violence. It was a violence that was directed toward political gain. Now, that could be whether it’s against a mayor he doesn’t like, or a governor he doesn’t like, or people he doesn’t like, or media personalities, as he’s often wont to do. And the means that he did it is stochastic terrorism. Stochastic means random.

It’s a way of thinking about violence. And it’s when a leader uses his platform to motivate and incite violence in a way in which the violence is much more likely to occur, but who does it and where it’s done is utterly random. So, after a Trump speech, is it more likely someone might do something? Yes. Or a Trump tweet.

I don’t feel comfortable calling Trump a terrorist just because I think that then we’re going to get into that debate. But it’s important to say that he’s the spiritual and operational leader of a domestic terrorism movement and that’s where we’ve landed. And that’s what I’ve been writing and talking about. And I did it not for name-calling but because now, I think, can we think about the prisms of counterterrorism as a solution?

That is what’s important so that you get to the counterterrorism framework: OK, what can we do, knowing now that this is an organized domestic threat? All of a sudden, the tools become more obvious: do all the things that you would otherwise do with any criminal organization. You prosecute, you investigate. [This includes not just Trump, but all of his supporters.]

You cut off the money. What the private sector is doing is fantastic. You deplatform the leader. So, thank you, Twitter and Facebook, for this short moment in time—we’ll get back to you later. You isolate, you shame, you use every political gesture you can. [Classic Saul Alinskyism.]

Crushed is a little strong, but you just want to weaken him, because it’s now about recruitment. It’s about whether we can contain this, prosecute those who’ve been violent, off-ramp those who may want to off-ramp. There’s something to shame, and to them realizing what’s going on. And we’ve got a lot of people in that camp. Let’s make sure he can’t recruit. And so he needs to be [the] loser.

[End]

Get all of that? The Swamp feels it must continue to hound, shame and persecute Trump because of you, you 75 million Trump voters who the Swamp now will characterize as “domestic terrorists.”

If it still isn’t clear enough for you, watch this clip of Obama CIA director John Brennan, who, along with DNI James Clapper and FBI Directors Robert Mueller and James Comey, weaponized the entirety of the U.S. Intelligence Community against ordinary Americans under Obama:

Got that? China Joe’s Intelligence Community is not moving against Trump, it is moving against 75 million ordinary Americans who the Swamp/Uniparty considers to be a “pro-Trump insurgency”, not against America, but against the privileged interests of the Swamp elite.

Just as the Swamp and its media/Big Tech toadies spent months telegraphing their plans for stealing the presidential election, they are now plainly telegraphing their plans to force you all to submit. Thus, this impeachment/removal of a man who has already left office is not merely about Trump, it is about shaming and intimidating all of his 75 million voters to submit to the Swamp’s will.

They always telegraph their plans, folks. All you have to do is pay attention.

That is all.

No, actually it’s about intimidating anyone who would try to run as a populist/nationalist.

Trump should run again, even after the conviction. After all, Constitution be damned.

WE, in no uncertain terms, need to say NO. They want unity? They want us to play nice?

NO IMPEACHMENT TRIAL.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

All made possible by the GOP colluding with Democrats to violate the Constitution.

Obama is NOT a natural born citizen.

And YES, it matters, in case you haven’t figured that out by now.

Obama is precisely why the founders excluded the children of foreigners.

I don’t know about you, but I have no intention of playing nice with these people whether there is an impeachment trial or not.

You can bet CJ John Roberts will not allow Trump's attorneys to present much of a defense. If they try to expose the pre-planned false flag operation, Roberts will muzzle them.

Whatever the Left has been using to blackmail Roberts, I hope it someday becomes public.

They want to make him a non-person, in true Communist fashion.

Not only prevent him from running for office or engaging in politics, but from doing business, having any associates, even living in places of his choice. They want to intimidate everybody else so that they will have nothing to do with him for fear of guilt by association.

If they could have him dead, they would, but first they want to erase him.

The Soviets were very successful at doing this and so, now, are the Communist Chinese. The Dems are taking lessons from their masters.

There ya go.

They want to disenfranchise 75 million voters.

As a prelude, of course, to enslaving them and bulldozing them into mass graves.
