President Lincoln Channels the Future…”The world will…”

“The world will little note, nor long remember what (we) THEY say here, but it can never forget what they did here” - paraphrasing Abraham Lincoln’s Gettysburg Address…in regard
to the trump Senate Impeachment Trial
The one
other Presidential impeachment trial for a president not named trump was the
impeachment trial of President Clinton. Remember that?
What was he
on trial for? For lying about getting a blow job while in office-literally and
figuratively. He was impeached by the House and brought to trial in the Senate.
Think about
it. The Senate exonerated Clinton in a 55 to 45 vote -. Somehow, in their infinite
wisdom, finding that lying about a sexual act in the Oval Office did not rise
to the 67% level of ‘high crimes and misdemeanors’ thus, wasn’t cause for
losing his job.
Probably by about
the same vote count the Senate will find trump not guilty of inciting
insurrection against the legitimately elected government of the United States.
So, one
president was on trial for what some say were sexual misdeeds within his
marriage and lying about it, while another president is on trial for attempting
to topple the rightful government of the United States while he was in office.
Think about
it one on trial for lying about a benign blow job, another for fomenting a coup
and attempting to overthrow the government and to change the arc of history of
our nation and most assuredly, the world.
Lindsay Graham
was one of the Republican leaders during the Senate Clinton trial to convict Clinton
for his private behavior and now, he’s a Senate leader who is defending trump’s
seditious, traitorous conduct.
Honestly, I
struggle to understand the Republicans of today other than to accept the
realization that they care only about themselves and their cozy seats in
Congress. Except for a handful, there are no ‘Profiles in ‘Courage’ but there are many ‘Silence of the Lambs’.
I believe that the Senate Republicans along with 66% of Republican Americans
who cling to the belief that trump won
the 2020 election will be treated as unpatriotic, un-American citizens
undeserving of respect in history books for the remainder of their lives.
They’ve
had their chance over a 5 year+ period to figure out trump and his sycophants and
no Chinese-style re-education camp will redeem the; they don’t get to go there.
They have my utter disgust and antipathy for their greed, lack of empathy,
authoritarianism and willful ignorance.
