The Democrats have gone hard left. I'm not sure half of them even believe in property rights anymore.

Republicans tried to impeach/ed Bill Clinton.

Democrats tried to impeach GW Bush.

Republicans tried to impeach Obama.

And now democrats are trying to impeach Trump.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Effort...h_Donald_Trump

My point is both of Americas political parties try to impeach presidents from the opposing party. And democrats trying to impeach Trump is standard Washington politics.

True but there is some in Democratic party that have been on the impeachment bandwagon even before he was inaugurated. There has even been a vote on it with 58 Democrats voting for it:

Clinton by his own admission committed perjury, while rare he could of been prosecuted for it. Ultimately he was disbarred for his actions. There is absolutely no question about his criminal act.

As far Obama goes I know there was rumblings hear and there but certainly no official actions.

It's hard to believe that any doctor would publicly suggest any kind of possible diagnosis of some one without having ever met them let alone evaluated them in their office or at least had access to that persons medical records. These aren't journalists or politicians that can get away with it (and are not qualified to make such judgments), these are doctors that have to answer to a medical board. The president's behavior or statements could be ten times worse than anything he has actually said and they still would have no business drawing any conclusions without properly evaluating him.

Take a look around these forums and you'll see people gladly rewriting history to praise Trump in a way that would make George Orwell (1984) proud. We have people claiming "there was no economic recovery under Obama" while at the same time giving Trump credit for that recovery. We have people claiming "people were afraid to say Merry Christmas until Trump took office," and even people giving him credit for "preventing plane crashes."

Honestly, if the people posting that crap believe what they are saying, they about as badly brainwashed as the poor sods in North Korea who believe Dear Leader is nearly a deity. Personality cults like that are how tyranny begins. We're talking about people who literally have said that there is nothing Trump can do to make them stop supporting him, and that is very, VERY wrong.

Now, I don't seriously think Trump is going to declare himself "dictator for life," and even if he did, I doubt it would work. But if he DID do such a thing, about 1 in 3 Americans would support the idea based on their blind allegiance to Trump in the face of facts, reason, common sense, and everything this nation represents.

rubbish, many though nixon was a criminal long before the investigation was completed. nixon tried to head that off with his i am not a crook speech.

and chad3 clinton WAS impeached for perjury in a court deposition, and obstruction of justice.

as for obama, there perhaps were republicans that wanted to impeach him, but nothing ever came of that, since obama did nothing impeachable.
It is not fact that Obama claimed to be a Marxist.

Please. Nearly all of Obama's policies were basically continuations of George Dubya Bush's, with the ACA being the only notable exception, and even that was originally a Heritage Foundation plan from the right. The only major difference between the parties at this point is that both will sell you out, but the far-right tosses on a huge heaping of bigotry, distrust of science, and theocracy on top of it. If not supporting crap like that is "hard left," you have to be kidding.
