He represents an imminent danger to the nation that worsens by the hour. And this threat rests on top of the blatant assault on the rule of law by a reckless and self-obsessed aspiring tyrant. Trump&#8217;s defenders keep asking what laws he has broken. So for those wingnuts in denial about Trump&#8217;s legal jeopardy, the <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.vice.com\/en_us\/article\/vb5zad\/here-are-7-crimes-trump-might-have-committed-in-this-ukraine-scandal\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">laws he can be charged with violating<\/a><\/strong> right now include extortion, campaign finance, witness intimidation, obstruction of justice, and conspiracy against the United States.<\/p>\n<p>As the sinkhole widens around our panicky president, he appears to be determined to use his own shovel dig ever deeper. His Twitter feed is infested with conspiracy theories, personal insults, unbridled hatred, and outright lies. But worst of all are his flagrant attempts to sow national discord and even civil war. His tweets have taken on the persona of a paranoid schizophrenic who shouts gibberish at passing cars. For instance:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Trump <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/realDonaldTrump\/status\/1178442762284404736\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">tweeted<\/a><\/strong> that <em>&#8220;I want [House Intelligence Committee Chairman Adam] Schiff questioned at the highest level for Fraud &#038; Treason.&#8221;<\/em><\/li>\n<li>Trump <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/realDonaldTrump\/status\/1178442765736333313\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">asked<\/a><\/strong> <em>&#8220;Was this person [the whistleblower or his source] SPYING on the U.S. President?&#8221;<\/em><\/li>\n<li>Trump <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/realDonaldTrump\/status\/1178446179320942593\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">alleged<\/a><\/strong> that Democrats <em>&#8220;are lying &#038; cheating like never before in our Country\u2019s history in order to destabilize the United States of America.&#8221;<\/em><\/li>\n<li>Trump <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/realDonaldTrump\/status\/1178477536818413571\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">asserted<\/a><\/strong> that <em>&#8220;the Democrats don\u2019t care if they burn down and destroy this nation.&#8221;<\/em><\/li>\n<li>Trump <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/realDonaldTrump\/status\/1178477539653771264\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">quoted<\/a><\/strong> a <em>&#8220;pastor&#8221;<\/em> who predicted that impeachment will <em>&#8220;cause a Civil War like fracture in this Nation from which our Country will never heal.&#8221;<\/em><\/li>\n<li>Trump <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/realDonaldTrump\/status\/1178670564879343619\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">charged<\/a><\/strong> that he&#8217;s <em>&#8220;looking for Corruption and &#8230; By the way, the Bidens were corrupt!&#8221;<\/em><\/li>\n<li>Trump <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/realDonaldTrump\/status\/1178643854737772545\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">repeated<\/a><\/strong> the absurdity that <em>&#8220;Rep. Adam Schiff illegally made up a FAKE &#038; terrible statement, pretended it to be mine &#8230; Arrest for Treason?&#8221;<\/em><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>These utterly unhinged outbursts reveal Trump&#8217;s severe mental infirmity and unfitness for office. There is simply no rational justification for charging a Democratic congressman with treason, a crime punishable by death. Nor is it rational to claim that Democrats want to <em>&#8220;destabilize&#8221;<\/em> and <em>&#8220;destroy&#8221;<\/em> the nation. And aligning himself with the opinion that the lawful process of investigating the President is a valid basis for civil war is just plain insane.<\/p>\n<p>However, Trump&#8217;s confession that he did indeed illegally solicit Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky for dirt on Joe Biden was a bit of a surprise. The surprise isn&#8217;t that Trump did it, just that he admitted it. And notice that Trump, who often whines about due process for himself, isn&#8217;t giving it to Biden who he flatly says &#8211; with zero evidence &#8211; is corrupt.<\/p>\n<p>Trump&#8217;s manic hysteria is producing some of his most dishonest statements to date. And for someone who has been documented as <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonpost.com\/politics\/2019\/08\/12\/president-trump-has-made-false-or-misleading-claims-over-days\/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">telling over 12,000 lies<\/a><\/strong>, that&#8217;s saying something. Among his recent falsehoods are that Rep. Schiff purposefully misquoted Trump. In fact, <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.newscorpse.com\/ncWP\/?p=42870\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Schiff prefaced<\/a><\/strong> a brief portion of his opening statement at a congressional hearing by stating explicitly that he was creatively paraphrasing Trump. There was no effort to mislead anyone.<\/p>\n<p>Trump has also been tweeting that the whistleblower is fake. But he&#8217;s ignoring the fact that the whistleblower&#8217;s complaint matches perfectly Trump&#8217;s own memo summarizing his phone call with Zelensky. And Trump keeps citing Zelensky as saying that there wasn&#8217;t any pressure put on him to dig up dirt on Biden. But you don&#8217;t ask the hostage if his captor is putting pressure on him. What was Zelensky supposed to say? He obviously feared losing the foreign aid that Trump was withholding from him.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p style=\"text-align:center;\"><strong>How Fox News Deceives and Controls Their Flock:<br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/gp\/product\/B00QSSMOES\/ref=as_li_tl?ie=UTF8&#038;camp=1789&#038;creative=9325&#038;creativeASIN=B00QSSMOES&#038;linkCode=as2&#038;tag=newscorpsecom-20&#038;linkId=TLI6JC2OYE22MUTS\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Fox Nation vs. Reality: The Fox News Cult of Ignorance.<\/a><br \/>\nAvailable now at Amazon.<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>This combination of brazen illegality and psychotic breakdown is far more than enough reason to oust Trump from office.
