I agree with him. The farther we get from the Russian collusion story, the more I realize someone should have been tried for treason, because now we also have the history of the Democrats lawfare, the attempts to keep Trump off of the Ballots in several states.  I can not imagine voting for these people

I'm starting to think that is zero number of Americans. 
I'll go back to being a conservative, when conservatives go back to being conservative.

A President who uses his office to go on a personal vendetta against those who he perceives have done him wrong is hardly a shining beacon of democracy. Or even a shitty beacon of democracy.

And he damn sure doesn't represent anybody who believes in the rule of law.

Unless you think he's a King and his word is law, which is likely for Trumpers.

To go one step further, the constitution requires the legislative branch to make laws, the judicial branch to interpret laws, and the executive branch to enforce laws.

Is that what is happening now? (The answer is no.)

The legislative branch, at least the Repug portion, is prostrating itself at Trumps feet while Trump is creating laws via EO, even though his party his control of both the senate and house. (Just like first time he was in office.)

Trump is attacking the judiciary for doing their jobs, which is being supported by subservient congress, and a subservient base.

Hey, you can love Trump all you want but when you think you're speaking for Americans who love their country and the rule of law you're way wrong.

You're just speaking for other Trumpers. But you are doing a fine job of that. :cheers:

Where was all the righteous rage when Biden was ignoring our immigration laws, importing 3 or 4 million illegal immigrants a year... and issuing 4 million + social security accounts to illegal immigrants?

How about you start a thread about those things, including documentation, and we can maybe talk about it. :shrug:
