Favoring Impeachment, Finally

ALTHOUGH MY CAR WEARS an "impeach Trump" bumper sticker, I have never actually been in favor of impeachment - until now. Enough, after all, is quite enough. The bumper sticker was offered free of charge from some online radical organization, and I just couldn't say no. In the small town where I live, smack in the middle of Trump country, most of the tail gaiters seem to frown when they follow too closely and read, which I regard humorously. Now, my car is beginning to mean what it says...I'm starting to change my mind, to lean towards impeachment, and perhaps removal. Much will depend on how the Muller investigation turns out, of course, and how Stormi blows over, and things like conflict of interests in business, and all that. Since the Defense Department lists climate change as the greatest threat to national security, any president who ignores it is committing treason, it could be argued. And so forth. I don't take impeachment lightly. Bill Clinton was impeached for lying to a grand jury under oath about sex. Should Trump therefore be impeached for lying to us the American people, about everything, deliberately, on a daily basis? Surely. Surely this is far worse than Clinton's lying. Trump lies about climate change, which threatens us all. its hared to fight an enemy when the president refuses to believe the enemy exists, even as the enemy begins its assault on the nation.
