President Trump's ditto head Rich Lowry is a true blue Trump enabler and like his mentor believes in "fake news" when facts hit him in the face. Lowry's opinion commentary in the New Orleans Advocate of 12/14 titled, "Democrats want to deny voters a choice" starts out with the first sentence: THE DEMOCRATS BELIEVE THAT THE 2020 ELECTION IS TO IMPORTANT TO BE LEFT TO THE VOTERS. Lowry simply picks up on Trump and the republican talking points to distract from the evidence against Trump concerning the President's impeachment.
Lowry admits that Trump committed an impeachable offense in his first paragraph but goes on to excuse Trump simply because he heads the republican party and occupies the White House. The true colors of republican opinion writers mirror Trump and his party in mocking the constitution and the rule of law. The framers of the constitution gave congress the responsibility to remove a corrupted President from office and not be concerned about leaving it up to the voters. The framers thought that would be to much of a risk to the country, its institutions and the people.
The bottom line is America has a President whose campaign worked with Russia to help him win the 2016 election (confirmed by the Mueller report and testimony under oath by people close to Trump during the impeachment hearings) Worked with Russia to dig up dirt on his opponent Hillary Clinton and even asked Russia to hack into an American's email to help his campaign. Then Trump asked Ukraine to investigate Joe Biden and his son because Biden could be Trump's opponent in the 2020 Presidential election. Trump held Ukraine hostage by holding up foreign aid approved by congress and used that aid to try and force Ukraine to investigate Joe Biden and his son. Trump's actions fit a pattern of corruption.
The American people are learning the extent Trump and his republican supporters are willing to trample upon the constitution and the rule of law and who puts party and politics above country. Their litany of "fake news" and un-American actions are a grave danger to the United States. America has a mentally unstable President who was elected to run the country. And with all that power, he choose to be dishonest, corrupt and did what no other American President has ever done. Trump choose to work with two foreign governments to investigate his political opponents for his own political and personal gain. The President committed multiple traitorous acts and betrayed his country and the people. Impeachment and removal from office is in the best interest of the United States.
The democratic party has stood up at a time of need, took serious their oath of office to protect and defend the constitution, the rule of law and the American concept that no one is above the law, not even the President of the United States.
