The indictments of Donald Trump charging the former president with 91 felonies across four cases in federal and state courts are just the latest barrage in an ongoing war over political control of our country.
The left and establishment Republicans would like you to believe that the alleged criminality of Mr. Trump’s actions brought about this history-making conflict, but in truth, the fever pitch of our national politics has led us to this unprecedented place.
In his book “The Right: The Hundred-Year War for American Conservatism,” Matthew Continetti sketches the challenges that gave rise to the American conservative political movement and the intellectual wars for control of the conservative movement and, ultimately, the Republican Party.
It began with the 2000 presidential election. “What happened in Florida set the tone for the next several decades of American politics,” Mr. Continetti says.

That's absolutely what happened.
“The lady doth protest too much, methinks”. It should be obvious even to the Libtards, that the Deep State is frightened as Hell by Trump.
Yes, this is just an extension of “Russian Collusion” by the communist democRATs. The thought that Trump can eliminate the “Deep state communists” scares them to death. I would expect Trump assassination attempts from communists trying to save themselves.
Nobdy even says it wrong...:
It is a federal felony to deprive a USA citizen of their right/requirement of a representative government.
Duh?
Yep.
