AND THEN?

     And then what? What happens whichever road we take? So the crooked demented man is impeached in the House but cleared in the Senate due to the majority of spineless scaredy cat Republicans. Or, the Senators actually refill their pants and do the right thing and stop supporting not only a crook in the generic meaning of the term, but a man who would steal the country out from under us, invite foreign countries in to interfere with our elections, use bribery and threats to get his way and who violates every law of presidential power that has ever been made. In short, is this man above the law - forever - as he seems to feel or do we remind all that no man is above the law and supposed ignorance of the law is no excuse before the judge and jury? Which road, folks? And what then?
     Do we then convict and settle for the Devil's Spawn, Pence, he of the car cavalcade on Mackinac island where no President has gone before in that violation of the rules of the island? The man who slept not in Lincoln's bedroom, but in Trump's, as we, the taxpayer's paid for it all? The man who governs by his wife's agreements and permission to talk with women? Or do we warn him that he had better watch his steps, not rock the boat with any more Trumpian legacies, to behave.
     No matter what we do andwhere we go, there will be people who will claim that ridiculous witch hunt claim, especially if the Senate does not do its job, and there will be the rest of us who are so tired of the filth of this regime, of life under Donald the First. It has even gotten tothe point where Chief Justice Roberts has said that the Court has fulfilled much of the job of Congress because they have not done so. Hmmm. This from the man who has turned it upside down with his conservative bent. The man who has allowed it to turn political and partisan. Interesting.
     And in the meanwhile? What? What then? So, are we going to go backwards on the right of all people to live their lives, to enjoy their bedrooms as two consenting adults with it being no business of anyone else, nor having an effect on their job success? And the slope is there, folks. Who and what else will we deny? Cannot be a Jew because Judaism refuses to accept Jesus as divine? Or cannot be a Sikh because the turban is offensive to some jerks? Or women now have to get permission when to have babies and when not? Are children to be taught a la Soviet Russia to inform on parents, to trade filial love for handkerchiefs of some to be chosen color, probably gold if Trump does the choosing.
     How the hell have we reached this point? How have we allowed hatred to divide our country so? How have we allowed a President to speak at the UN in terms of America First, straight out of Nazi sympathizers circa pre WWII. How do we think this is good because he actually spoke without putting his feet in his mouth? Actually, he did, because his whole rotten and so wrong vision of the world was laid out for all to see, a vision which cannot be, not anymore.
     How do we allow a man to take on a 16 year old girl with the courage to take on the world, to get up in front of the UN and speak, and scold, and threaten and urge. Her face when she saw Trump was precious and telling. And this idiot thinks he can call her names, troll her, infer that she is mentally ill because she has Asperger's!!! She took him on and very simply made him look like the mean ass he is.
     So what now and what then after it is over? Will we come together as a country? Will we understand that that dogcatcher is more qualified than Trump? Will we allow Trump to reign from prison? Oh, I cannot wait, now or after his presidency, to watch him be convicted of all he has done wrong - tax fraud, emoluments, collusion with foreign countries, bribery, moral perversion, disregard of the Constitution wihich by the way does not say he can do anything he wants. That is a toddler speaking!! I will be there with bells on to see him do the perp walk, perhaps lucky enough to see him in a skin tone matching orange jumpsuit and see the truth come out - from his tiny bald skull to his demented and deranged mind, to his crooked bones and actions and he can take all the rest of his cooperating crooks right along with him.
    If the Senate blows this opportunity, if the House does not demand the entire and original statement of the whistleblower, the original recording of the conversation, then we are dumb. A la Nixon, these things can be tampered with easily. Trump himself knows that he is in it deep now, up to his miserable neck and squinty eyes. He asked Pelosi for a deal!!! Hah!!!!
     Well, it is now time to wait and hope and nervously pace the floor. Will all this give birth to which country - the old one we love and honor and respect or the new twisted Amerika that Trump and minions want? Breaking point here, folks, breaking point.
