Investigating Trump

OBAMA INHERITED A FAILING, COLLAPSING economy, and used his (in)famous bailout of too big to allow to fail bankrupt corporations and huge nearly trillion dollar stimulus package to stop the bleeding, and turn it around, and begin the process of recovery. He leaves office with an economy which has been healing and growing for over six years. The only complaint conservatives can muster is that the economy isn't growing fast enough. Well, tough tit, as they say. we're lucky to even have an economy, which we would not have, had conservatives been able to enact conservative responses to the great recession; the policy of leaving government out of the problem, and letting the economy repair itself, magically and automatically, just like it did, or didn't, from 1929 to 1933. Historians are likely to give Obama the credit he is due, and to consider him to have been an effective president, limited only by six years of obstructionist conservative hatred aimed against him in congress. Obama's eloquent, intelligent and moving farewell address was a humorous contrast to Donald Trump's juvenile twitter tweets, which read like the musings of a fourteen year old with a bad grade in English having a temper tantrum and lashing out with infantile accusations and lies. So now it turns out that indeed the Russians did hack into Trump and the republicans, and may have extremely damaging secret information about Trump, which could bring him down. Also, there may indeed have been communications between Russians and the Trump campaign during the campaign, and if so, those communications may have been concerned with stealing the election from Hillary Clinton. Only a proper investigation will provide the answers. It may well be that Trump's crimes include more than racist business practices and sexual molestation; he may have conspired with a foreign nation to steal the election, a crime punishable by impeachment and imprisonment. At present, it appears Trump is trying to destroy the United States government by appointing people to lead it who hate it and want to destroy it. Surely that is worthy of scrutiny and dangerous enough to merit forceful opposition.
