Trump Releases 6 page Rant attacking Pelosi

Post by _Icarus »

He goes on and on with the script of calling the impeachment unconstitutional, insisting that Democrats are invoking the Founding Fathers in vain because they'd be on his side if they were alive today.

So, Democrats says it would be unconstitutional not to impeach and the Trumpublicans say it is unconstitutional to impeach.

Hmmm, if only there were some kind of Constitutional experts who could weigh in here...

Over 750 Scholars Weigh in ... call for Trump's's impeachment.

Over 1,000 former prosecutors said "Each of us believes that the conduct of President Trump described in Special Counsel Robert Mueller’s report would, in the case of any other person not covered by the Office of Legal Counsel policy against indicting a sitting President, result in multiple felony charges for obstruction of justice."

But what do they know. The guy who threatened his former school if they disclosed his grades probably knows more about the Founding Fathers than all of these scholars put together.

Hamilton understood, as he wrote in 1792, that the republic remained vulnerable to the rise of an unscrupulous demagogue, “unprincipled in private life, desperate in his fortune, bold in his temper, possessed of considerable talents…despotic in his ordinary demeanour.” That demagogue, Hamilton said, could easily enough manage “to mount the hobby horse of popularity — to join in the cry of danger to liberty — to take every opportunity of embarrassing the General Government & bringing it under suspicion — to flatter and fall in with all the non sense of the zealots of the day.” Such a figure, Hamilton wrote, would “throw things into confusion that he may ‘ride the storm and direct the whirlwind.’”


Alexander Hamilton was a better prophet than Joseph Smith. I wonder if Hamilton envisioned the "considerable talents" as being really, really good at saying stupid stuff with a straight face.

Remember when part of the amusement of listening to dictators or their spokespeople in other countries saying banana-pants crazy stuff was how alien it seemed? Not anymore.

Trump didn't really write this. Not enough misspellings or ALLCAPS.

I'm sure that the man gave his whiny-arse input of conspiracies and complaints, but at least the White House found someone who can edit as well as a high-schooler before releasing this rant.

To me, it reads as though Trump dictated a rant to his people, then they cleaned it up into something a little more coherent and released it in quasi-Trump speak. Shades of that letter to Erdogan.

Trump also just implied Schiff should be assasinated / executed a few minutes ago.

Does that kind of garbage become part of the Presidential record? Officially?
