Who
would have ever thought that the United States could face a coup
attempt against its duly elected President? But for all intents and
purposes that’s what’s going down. It’s a derivative of an
old-fashioned third-world banana republic mob-style coup that is
brewing against Donald Trump.

It matters not that there is a lack of substance to the charges of
Russian collusion. That a charge of treason has been bandied about by
Democrat Vice Presidential candidate Tim Kaine to justify impeachment
of Trump shows both madness and utter ignorance of the Constitutional
definition of treason. It also raises the commonsense question of how a

from more corrupt and insolvent governments than do states and rural
areas.
Political correctness (PC), which has its origin and continuing
sustenance amongst liberals and the Democratic Party and its base in
mainstream and social media, the universities, and Hollywood, has
robbed the soul of America -- leaving the nation weaker, humorless, and
more divided than ever. In addition, America’s overbearing federal
government has in fact created a swamp in the nation’s capital,
corrupting both political parties, the bureaucracies, and even the
supposedly independent Federal Reserve -- which enabled the federal
government to recklessly double its indebtedness in a record eight
years under Obama with hardly a cautionary peep in the Fed’s frequent
meetings, the minutes of which are dutifully recorded for the public.

The coup against President Trump will not succeed in removing him from
office. But if the opposition and obstructionism continue to delay
nominee confirmations and confound the legislative agenda and Trump
initiatives the people voted for, the coup efforts will have
effectively accomplished their objective.
