It’s just another conspiracy theory to create confusion and misinformation to advance your own political agenda. In the real world most people irregardless of their politics want what’s best for America. A stable secure country with respect for each other and the rule of law.
Amen. I don't believe the right hates our country and wants to destroy it anymore than I want that. It's a stupid canard and the last resort of shallow, narrow minded morons.

You mean like abolishing discrimination? Or more like abolishing medical bankruptcies? There are so many things we want to abolish. Abolishing immigration isn't on our list though.

The left doesn't want to abolish discrimination, the left wants to eliminate only the discrimination that they don't like. The left love discrimination if it leads to more Dem votes.

An opinion piece from USA Today:

We have seen it with our own eyes. There is a bloated authoritarian lounging in his bathrobe in a 200-year-old mansion that used to symbolize the principal republic of the world."

https://www.usatoday.com/story/opini...umn/923543002/
She is absolutely correct about one thing .....

Impeachment won't remove Trump from office

These Leftist are doing a great job - Marching in the streets chanting:

Death to America - No Borders! No Wall! No USA at All!

And attacking US Law Enforcement & anyone who gets in their way - they are totally unhinged.

All that said - I'm in favor of this Constitutional Amendment they want to "Abolish the President" - they can join the Gun Grabbers who want to Abolish the 2nd Amendment and the Leftists that want to Abolish the Electoral College.

I want to see ALL the Democrats and Socialists make this a part of the Political Platform they Campaign on.

No. We don't like discrimination. It's as simple as that.

The right continually tries to insist we are discriminating against them by impinging on their right to discriminate. The prospect is as silly as it sounds, but, I guess, if you hear it enough times you start to believe you're being mistreated, when you're not allowed to mistreat others anymore.

I am a moderate and NO fan of Trump, but that was one of the most [stupid? crazy? ignorant?} opinion pieces I have seen in a major newspaper EVER.

She wrote, "Only about 25 percent of eligible voters voted for President Grab ‘Em By The P----. Yet, the majority was apparently powerless to stop him." Well, guess what? Trump could have been stopped (defeated) if more people who disliked him would have voted for HRC -- and it wouldn't have taken a huge percentage of those people, either!

Also, we have had bad POTUSes before -- many of them, including Andrew Johnson who many accused of being a drunk and a racist (and, yes, from what I've read, he probably was), and we will survive Trump, too. The fact the U.S. needs a Chief Executive, and we can only hope the person we elect in 2020 will be better than the one we have now.

^ Documented instance # 96740218 of a Liberal deliberately leaving out the word "illegal" when discussing immigration.
