"Relentless Attacks Against Trump"
by tristero
This ranks as one of the more ridiculous commentaries I've read on the Trump presidency:
There’s a lot we still don’t know about President Trump’s phone conversation with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky. There is one thing we do know: This budding scandal would probably have more political impact were it not for the last three years’ worth of relentless attacks against Trump.
They're not attacks. They're simply reports of the multiple egregiously criminal acts this president has perpetrated. Oh, and by the way, contrary to what the commentator pretends is true, the Ukraine piece of the story is getting plenty of traction. And although what I think is the most important part of the story is being underplayed, some outlets have indeed figured out that Trump is pulling a fast one: he's dangling the release of an edited transcript to distract from his refusal to pass the whistleblower complaint to Congress. My guess is there's a lot more to that whistleblower complaint than a few openly criminal extortion attempts.
... Trump has been relentlessly attacked every day since his inauguration. He has been accused of treason, breaking the law with impunity, running concentration camps along our southern border and a million other things.
That's because it's all relentlessly true.
The past three years have consisted of little else besides leading political, social and media figures yelling that he is unfit for the office he holds.
That's because he is manifestly unfit for office. Duh. And the Democrats are auditioning for the role of Grand High Ditherers in some demented Gilbert and Sullivan knockoff.
I've got an idea! You want the "relentless attacks on Trump" to stop?
Just get him to resign. I promise you, the moment he is out of office and behind bars where he belongs, I will never, ever, mention Trump's name again.
