Rule change sharpens Dem investigations into Trump
The Hill ^ | MORGAN CHALFANT

Posted on 02/14/2019 2:27:53 PM PST by ChinaGotTheGoodsOnClinton

The change will offer Democrats on powerful House committees including Intelligence, Oversight and Reform, and Judiciary substantial momentum as they open wide-ranging probes into Trump, producing new headaches for the White House as the president readies his reelection bid.

“It’s more teeth, faster legs, longer breath, greater strength and just bigger,” said Steven Cash, a former staffer and counsel to the Senate Intelligence Committee."

The 'RATs don't seem much interested in not breaking with precedent. They are more interested in doing all they can to forward their vision of America.

Maybe we should proceed with the same logic.

Why don’t they just come out and pass a law forbidding him to run for re-election as president?

Too bad Trump couldn’t call in a drone strike on these a-holes.

Quite true.

That’s why Trump is correct to take the money as part of Wall funding, because politically it puts Congress in the Wall business with him, and shifts the discussion to how fast and what resources can be applied to build it.

It’s also why he is correct to declare a national emergency as part of that process. Those who say “oh, but it will set a precedent that future Democrat Presidents could follow to spend money on climate change or something”.

Well I have news for them: Democrats don’t give one shit about precedent! If they ever, God forbid, occupy the White House again they will think nothing of declaring an emergency to throw money to their green pals REGARDLESS of what Trump does.

Sitting around whining and wishing for a perfect world is just wasting energy. Take what you can get and find creative ways to get more. If Jesus could multiply bread and fishes, just watch and see how Trump manages to multiply resources to build the wall.

They will show all their teeth, not just their fangs.

In the long run that will be great for us, because they will be forced to let their guard down and show their hands.

AOC is like frosting on the cake.

This is just taxpayer-funded opposition research for their 2020 campaign.

Republican turn out in the 2018 mid-term election increased by 20%.

Unfortunately, in 2018, the Democrat turn out increased by 45%!

Bottom Line...

LEGAL Democrat voters outnumber Republican voters.

Thanks to massive LEGAL immigration, the Democrats can win any national election they want to if they get their core LEGAL voters to the polls.

It will all backfire. The longer this goes on, the more sympathy Trump will get. It’s just a witch hunt for the sole purpose of harassment.

Any Pres. Trump official or acquaintance, take the Hillary defense.
“I don’t remember”, simple.

This will all come to a screeching halt if Trump goes scorched earth on the democrat corruption. We can only hope that the DOJ is secretly preparing to indict a whole lot of corrupt democrats(and a few republicans too). I know that it is a lot to hope for. But I would jump up and down with glee if I saw pictures of Adam Schiff and his elk being led away in cuffs. Justice for America.

I think this government as designed is pretty much finished. There is very little checks and balance and forget about limited government under a Constitutional framework and adherence. We are now a soft tyranny with some of the most atrocious aspects of the worst governments ever founded.
