The "dissing" of America

First of all, he refused to show America his income and financial statements. Yet, Mitch MConnell and the Repubs said nothing, except to approve.

From the beginning, he has disrespected the laws of this country. That is of paramount importance.

We do not know absolutely sure that he has colluded and conspired with the Russians? But, we do know that he has been very successful at dividing this nation. It is a very, very serious matter.

In order for his strategy to succeed, he had to demonize the "media" and the Justice Department, including the FBI. He ridiculed the press as the "enemy of the people". It was like a Roman circus, with daily distractions and diversions.

Now, we have become somewhat immunized to the lies and deceptions. They have become "more normal".

The trump has one more test to prove, whether or not, he is indeed above the law?

He will succeed if he is permitted to fire the Special Counsel, Robert Mueller.

Yes, it will appear as he is above the law. Nothing will happen. We may get scraps of the truth but not the whole truth. They will say it’s for the “good of the country” and admonish us for not being able to move on.
He may resign on his own, he may be herded in that direction. It will appear he’s gotten away with any treasonous, conspiring, colluding or whatever criminal act he’s committed.
He may get “crippled” financially but allowed to live out his final greasy finger licking years in relative peace although it may be in a Howard Hughes kind of isolation.

I sincerely hope I’m wrong but....
