The televised end of trump (#3935)

     All the major networks are planning to show to some degree the impeachment hearings in the House. The world will get to see democracy in action against an appointed president who sees himself above the law. In fact he sees himself as some sort of demigod if not an actual god. The fact that we democrats are holding hearings and that they are being televised shows the strength of our convictions when it comes to protecting our democracy and the rule of law for all and not just for most.
     Next week is when the impeachment proceedings are to begin and surely the world will tune in at some point in time to see how badly the trump administration and trump himself have behaved. The fact that our next presidential election is now less than a year away is revealing in that the worst of what trump has allowed and allegedly orchestrated himself will not bode well for his reappointment. I always call trump the appointed president because he did not win the popular vote and actually lost the popular vote by nearly 3 million votes. But since we have the ancient patriarchal system of an electoral college he has been able to manipulate himself into being appointed by them to be president.
     What trump had hoped to get away with in private will now be exposed for all to see. Which is the way things should be because the truth of things should be our greatest guiding principle in the administration of our government in our name. Many have fought and died for the right to be free of tyranny and oppression and this fact gathering impeachment process in the House will keep that paradigm intact. We owe it to all those who have ever raised a defense for democracy and spent their most precious gift of life protecting it. The long history of our nation has not been about the greed one can acquire from others it is about respect, equality, and opportunity for all.
