"You Have NO Choice," A New Frame For George Carlin's Classic Shtick "The American Dream"
http://paxonbothhouses.blogspot.com/2018/06/you-have-no-choice-new-frame-for-george.htmlAlan: If Trump and his Department of Justice can prove high crimes and treason against Hillary (or anyone else), let the ax fall!
Personally, I support the Rule of Law and have no interest defending anyone (who may be proven guilty of felony) from criminal indictment.
Again...
Why doesn't Trump even try to lock Hillary up?
If Hillary is guilty of a serious crime, it is Trump's moral and political duty to bring charges.
BTW...
Would you ever call for indictment of Trump?
As a friend recently paraphrased Trump: "Not only could Trump shoot someone on 5th Avenue and not lose any voters, he could rape a 5 year old on the streets of Manhattan and still retain the support of his Base."
Trump's Base has nowhere else to turn, and -- devious pragmatists that they are -- Trump's "true believers" will NEVER abandon Trump.
Never.

Trumpistas have been lying so long, they don't know what's real.
On a par with a lunatic spouting "word salad" Trump says: "Any negative polls are fake news." http://paxonbothhouses.blogspot.com/2018/06/verbatim-trump-quote-any-negative-polls.html
"There are two ways of lying, as there are two ways of deceiving customers. If the scale registers 15 ounces, you can say: "It's a pound." Your lie will remain relative to an invariable measure of the true. If customers check it, they can see that they are being robbed, and you know by how much you are robbing them: a truth remains as a judge between you. But if the demon induces you to tamper with the scale itself, it is the criterion of the true which is denatured, there is no longer any possible control. And little by little you will forget that you are cheating."
"There Are Two Ways Of Lying..." Denis De Rougemont And Donald Trump
The truth is that "Trump's got nothing" on Hillary.
Consider:
GOP firebrand S.C. Rep. Trey Gowdy found NO "actionable evidence" at the end of his 3 year-long Benghazi committee - an investigation that lasted a year longer than lifelong Republican Mueller's recent probe which, as a matter of fact, "indicted, convicted or got guilty pleas from 34 people and three companies, including top advisers to President Trump, Russian spies and hackers with ties to the Kremlin." https://www.marketwatch.com/story/trey-gowdy-i-dont-have-a-lot-to-show-for-the-last-seven-years-2018-04-08
At the risk of repetition, I will re-state the bottom line:
Despite Republicans' partisan determination to find Hillary Clinton guilty of criminal wrongdoing, the GOP's centerpiece Benghazi investigation found NO "actionable evidence" of criminal wrongdoing.
None.
Nada.
Niente.
Nihil.
Zilch.
And Trumpistas will not care one whit.
Mueller, on the other hand, found a veritable swamp of criminal wrongdoing and secured dozens of indictments, guilty pleas and convictions, including top-ranking White House officials.
I realize that your faith-based convictions are all-consuming -- intellectual rigor is an early casualty of faith-based self-righteousness -- but, as a matter of fact, "conservative" "Christians'" most ardent political beliefs rarely correspond to facts.
You can, of course, throw out facts. That's a personal choice --- a bad one, but America's political freedom guarantees people the right to "get it wrong."
However, you cannot simultaneously elevate allegations, suspicions, alternative facts, whole-cloth lies and QAnon bilge (properly called "QAnonsense") to the status of facts.
Why don’t American conservatives care about the Rule Of Law?
The answer is simple-dimple and comes straight from the mouth of a conservative luminary: http://paxonbothhouses.blogspot.com/…/republican-presidenti…
