They said what?! “Other than the turnout, the results are pretty unremarkable”; “Divided government will mean no meaningful legislation will get passed which is fine with me”; “all the money given by liberals to candidates like O’Rourke and McCaskill couldn’t get them elected”. Wow! Harry Buckeley is fine with no meaningful legislation being passed in the next two years; he’s been fine with it for the last two years. Over 300 mass shootings in America already this year, and the retired judge wouldn’t want to see meaningful, bipartisan legislation on gun control? With thousands fleeing Central America’s killing fields — he doesn’t want to see ANY legislation on immigration, even for Dreamers?
The results of a massive midterm election turnout were ‘Remarkably Historic’, and they’re still coming in! And “O’Rourke couldn’t get elected”? OMG! That election was SO CLOSE, the momentum grew steadily; if given another few days, Beto, a worthy contender, could have been elected Senator in red Texas. There’s definitely a Blue Wave, shifting further Left. “Play Wipe Out” — we did, sweeping hundreds of older, white, male candidates off the board, with a groundswell of support for hundreds of women and minority candidates, surging to victory! And “No”, William Urban, “friends weren’t hoping we’d end up with government paralysis”. Our allies want to see the “Trump Effect” disappear as much as ‘we, the Dems’ do. And lamenting: “Dems mean no border wall”, did you miss it — the Repubs had total control for two years and didn’t produce legislation for a border wall! Now “the Senate will be more cooperative”, with who or what; they’re Trump-owned; they drank the ‘koolaid’, got the tattoos. “Trump wisely refrained from giving Dems a campaign issue”?! I understand there are two alternate-realities vying for manifestation, but What The Heck?! Cut down on the Fox “News” consumption; ingest some fact-based brain-nutrients!
Facts: The American people, upon hearing the evidence of Nixon’s corruption, clamored for his impeachment, the Republicans weren’t owned by Nixon; some had consciences, some were Patriots. We had a shared set of facts, delivered by a media invested in truth, not a fraudulent GOP-TV, producing the ruinous effects we see on our body-politic and society. I believe that when the results of the DOJ investigation are revealed, most Americans will be horrified at the extent and multiplicity of the high-crimes Trump & Co have perpetrated against US, and a clarion call will resound for IMPEACHMENT!
