Enabling Crime

ON NATIONAL TELEVISION, in Congress, clearly, conclusively, it was proven beyond any dispute that President Trump is a traitor, and therefore, a criminal. The proof was given openly by the president's most loyal associates, by members of his own team, people from within the administration. He sold out his country for personal gain. His chief of Staff, in a nationally televised press conference, openly proclaimed the "quid pro quo" with the Ukraine, informed us that it "happens all the time", and advised the nation to "get over it". And yet, his supporters, like mafia members perjuring themselves for the sake of saving their don from prison, pretend that all accusations against the president are fabricated, based entirely on hatred, and that those who make the countless accusations are the perpetrators of a hoax. It is they, the Trump supporters, who are of course the hoaxers, the fabricators, defending a criminal because they think he has their best interests in mind, defending a criminal whose election was aided by a foreign intervention, a criminal whose presidency is illegitimate, whose election was in fact a coup. Their defense is a hollow, vague, generality, with no basis in reality. No matter how abundant or damning the evidence for the president's criminal activity becomes, they simply shrug it off, dismissively, without ever actually addressing its substance. Every trump supporter is an accessory to crime. Every Trump supporter is a willing member of a traitorous gang. The proof is the words of Mick Mulvaney, and all the other witnesses who testified before Congress, in elaborate detail. In the forthcoming impeachment trial John Bolton, the former national security adviser who is willing to testify, may be prevented from doing so by the stonewalling Republican supporters of Trump. He was a firsthand witness, the sort Trump supporters claim were absent from the House impeachment hearings. Rudy Giuliani, Rick Perry, and others, all first hand witnesses, people who could either exonerate trump or establish his guilt, will be prevented from testifying, because the republicans and their fellow Trump supporters understand that the truth proves the president's guilt, and unfitness for office. Everyone who supports Donald Trump should be ashamed of being a supporter of crime and a traitor to their country. Sadly, they never will.
