Anonymous Deep State undemocratic interference in political affairs from a communist sympathizing rag?

More commie conniptions?

Yawn...

If anything, this action reflects poorly on what the Deep Sate and commies think of our actual democracy.

Public anonymous subversion of our Union is a stinky cologne.

I have had a lot of respect for you due to your prior posts on numerous subjects, but I truly do think you need to just "put up or shut up", or I think that you are going to lose a lot of respect from many people on City-Data. You might not care about that, but if you do . . . just say the name of who you think or "know" wrote the op-ed and support your statement or opinion.

Otherwise, many people are going to say that you are just full of hot air.
THIS is who microchip (the creator of fake Q and the anonymous NYT writer) is. He was doxxed and he has been revealed. This doxxing was not recent, he's BEEN doxxed and outed, but people still don't get it because they are too lazy to put everything together.

This is how "QAnon" had photos from AirForce1. This is how "QAnon" knew things about Trump. This is how "QAnon" made it all so believable. His handle on Twitter was the same as it is on gab right now: microchip He was banned from Twitter because he is a huge, huge internet troll. Kek - ever hear of that? The green frog? Pepe?

Guess what.

I am not going to hold everyone's hand through this all. If you want to find the truth, I highly suggest, despite you using social media or not, that you read through his account on gab. Everything is there.

So it was a liberal?

For Trump, perhaps around the year 2525?

Haven't you learned yet?


Nothing matters.


Trump is King George III.

He could be in a straitjacket and Trumpsters would still think he's fit to run the country.

If you can use an intermediary to send a letter, you can use one to set up a meeting between parties.

I dunno, all speculation of course, I really, really want to know the intent of the action and the outcome they were hoping for.
Yes, I would love to know what prompted that person to write it and what sort of result they were expecting myself. Those on the Left are just as skeptical of it as those on the Right although for different reasons. I doubt if the Op Ed author actually wants to invoke the 25th amendment short of Trump falling into a coma. Otherwise, it would be a complete circus.

Were they trying to reassure us that contrary to popular belief, the republican establishment still has a modicum of competence remaining to them and that they actually still have one or two scruples? Are they trying to do some sort of damage control in advance of any possible indictments by Mueller?

Beats me.

So I have been wracking my brain over the motivation to publish the Op Ed. You have to have reason to put it all on the line like that, an attempt to accomplish something.

And the only thing I can think of is to maintain political capital, to be able to come out later and say "I was with the Trump administration to save the country, for the people... we needed adults in the room."

A message for the GOP: That doesn't cut it for me. You stood silent; you helped, not hindered the horrible person who was in office, you sold your souls. As a Republican I am deeply offended by the actions and non-actions of the GOP.

I have to agree. If his staff truly thinks he's that far over the edge, they need to use the processes in place to do something about it.

Again, I say to you...if Trump displayed basic traits of honesty, competence, and respect for the Constitution and others in his dealings, then this unprecedented internal revolt wouldn't be happening.
Alleged internal revolt. Deep state whining revolt.

You are typically vague in your accusations -- so let's try an experiment. List specific things Trump has done that do no respect the constitution. We'll wait.

Amendment 25 is a hard sell even with hard evidence. The Legislature has remained silent on the antics in the Executive Branch so far, there's nothing that would make me believe they would be open to do anything now, or in the future--unless Trump ran naked down Pennsylvania Avenue with a rose between his teeth--and maybe not even then.
