Everyday, the GOP takes positions that are so detrimental to the future of how we are governed. Let’s start off with the “be careful what you wish for” item. Just a few weeks ago the GOP was screaming about the closed door testimony being secured regarding the Ukraingate. Odd, considering they had their watchdogs in there and were reporting on it daily with their spin. The main complaint was the hearings should be made public and the proceedings should be voted upon by Congress.
So, Congress sets the vote and all the Republicans vote against it. No surprise there. However, the hearings then went public.
What occurred after was a perfect example of the hypocrisy of the current GOP members. Once the extremely damning testimony started getting out, in real time, live and right from the lips of the people testifying, the GOP went crazy and had the gall to say, “These hearings should not be in front of the public”. Oh no, why not. Is it that you don’t want the American public and the rest of world to see that this whole mess was the result of Trump, once again, trying to use the White House to further his own personal, business, and political interests?
Now, for the future. Let’s consider some of the things a future Democratic administration can do – well, they can obstruct justice, they can ignore Congressional subpoenas, they can use the Justice Department as their own vendetta machine, they can lie, everyday, about their crooked leader and do so with a Nazi-like crazed devotion, they can attack members of the military, diplomatic services, and intelligence services. They can cozy up to socialist ideals and policies. They can try to have GOP rivals investigated, harassed, and slandered.
Certainly, the list is not complete.
