10 reasons why this impeachment ‘inquiry’ is really a coup
https://nypost.com ^ | November 12, 2019 | Victor Davis Hanson

There are at least 10 reasons why the Dem impeachment “inquiry” is really a coup.

1) Impeachment 24/7. The “inquiry,” supposedly prompted by President Trump’s Ukrainian call, is only the most recent coup seeking to overturn the 2016 election.

Usually, the serial futile attempts — with the exception of the Mueller debacle — were characterized by about a month of media hysteria. We remember the voting-machines-fraud hoax, the Logan Act, the Emoluments Clause, the 25th Amendment, the McCabe-Rosenstein faux coup and various Michael Avenatti–Stormy Daniels–Michael Cohen psychodramas. Ukraine, then, isn’t unique, but simply another mini-coup.

2) False whistle blowers. The “whistle blower” is no whistle blower by any common definition of the noun. He has no incriminating documents, no information at all. He doesn’t even have firsthand evidence of wrongdoing.Instead, the whistle blower relied on secondhand water-cooler gossip about a leaked presidential call. Even his mangled version of the call didn’t match that of official transcribers.

Rasio keeps calling it a public inquiry. There is nothing public about this, this a purely Private democrat coup.

We just had a test of the emergency Broadcast system and it’s totally blocking our Nunes statement. It went on for almost a minute. Did this happen around the country?

Do I feel the thugs in the Deep State or broadcast officials at Spectrum would time this? Yes,.. I do.

The House “public impeachment inquiry” has all the trappings of an Inquisition trial where the guilt of heresy is assumed and only a confession is needed. Schiff even looks like Torquemada, the grand Inquisitor of the Spanish Inquisition.

These seditionists are not going to be happy until they force Trump to martial law.

Victor Davis Hanson has for decades been among my favorite writers. He was very slow to warm up to Candidate Trump, but so was I. Now, he’s probably President Trump’s most articulate intellectual supporter.

A coup attempt usually ends up in victory or death for the perps.
What will it be?

"“I do not know the identity of the whistleblower, and I’m going to make sure that identity is protected,” Schiff claimed."

How the hell can schiff protect ciaramella if schiff doesn't know ciaramella's name?

“The House “public impeachment inquiry” has all the trappings of an Inquisition trial where the guilt of heresy is assumed and only a confession is needed.”

And the confession had to be obtained through torture. If the accused “confessed” prior to torture, the inquisitors’ position was that the confession was invalid, because it was given in order to AVOID torture; so torture had to be applied to see if the accused PROVED his or her confession was sincere.

“In other words, it is certainly not a crime for a president to adopt his own foreign policy to fit particular countries nor to request of a foreign government with a history of corruption seeking US aid to ensure that it has not in the past colluded with prior US officials in suspicious activity.”

Says it all for me..

Once more it is OBVIOUS to any thinking person that the DIMocRAT RADICALS have NOTHING worth any intelligent adult even wasting their time listening to, as they are NOT smart, are nothing more than HATERS/BIGOTS & obviously are afflicted with a terminal case of TDS.

Just my OPINION, TMN78247
