Dear Editor: The day after Donald Trump was elected President in 2016, the left-leaning media called for his impeachment. That began a multi-faceted conspiracy among the leftist elites in our government and their media henchmen to undermine Trump and his Presidency.
The first onslaught was the narrative that he was not fit to be President. Maxine Waters, Democratic Representative from California proclaimed, “he is not my President.” He was too old. He was mentally unbalanced, etc. And the print and television media ran with it. Once they elected Joe Biden, Trump looks like Einstein!
Then as Trump started to deal with the immigration problems on the southern border, the Democratic Party and the media said this was a “manufactured problem.”
His call for a border wall was racist and he is a racist.
Most of us of course know that the Democrat definition of a racist is “anyone who disagrees with the Democrats' narrative.”
Now Biden has decided to rebuild the wall, but nobody is calling him a racist.
Soon came the great smokescreen of Russian collusion. Russia interfered with the election in favor of Trump over Hillary, said the narrative. According to Adam Schiff, Democratic Representative for California, there was credible evidence Trump was a Russian agent. This preposterous claim was supported by James Clapper and James Baker at the top of the U.S. Security conglomerate. This was more than “noise” from the left as they succeeded in appointing a Special Counsel Robert Mueller and 12 Democratic cohorts to prove this claim. After spending $30-40 million in taxpayer funds and working for two and a half years, none of the claims were substantiated. But the democrats rode this horse for over three years and were never held accountable for their lies.
Then came the Covid-19 Pandemic, labeled by Nancy Pelosi “the Trump flu”. Their political bias blinded them to the wrongs of the Chinese, the World Health Organization, and Dr. Fauci in leading us astray as to what this was and how to deal with it.
When Trump instituted a ban on foreign travel to the U.S. to stem the rise of this Pandemic, he was again called a racist among other derogatory names. Infection rates and death tolls were intentionally inflated by Dr. Fauci and the media to fault Trump’s leadership in dealing with it.
Then there came a mysterious whistleblower who “overheard” a phone call between Trump and the President of Ukraine. The whistle blower’s interpretation of the phone call, as well as Adam Schiff’s exaggeration of its relevance, enabled the next attack on Trump. He was accused of trading military aid to Ukraine for political influence. But the Democratic Congress and the media parlayed this into an Impeachment of President Trump. The whole Ukraine flap directed at Trump was to cover up the Hunter and Joe Biden real quid pro quo with Ukraine, and Russia, which was squelched by the media until after the election of 2020. The Bidens have not yet been brought to account for their dealings.
Jerrold Nadler, NY Congressman, and a Trump hater have conducted a years-long vendetta of investigations into Trump’s Taxes and then Trump’s business dealings.
Numerous filings against Trump were made in the left-friendly Southern NY District Court. None of these charges have been proven, the case was so weak that the prosecuting attorneys quit!
When there were Republican accusations and hundreds of lawsuits claiming fraud in the 2020 elections, our justice system made the precipitous judgment these were without merit and decided to throw them out of court without due process hearings, a clear stance to preserve and protect the establishment.
And here we are with the scam January 6 hearings being orchestrated by Nancy Pelosi, the person in Washington DC who could have thwarted the riot before it started if she had obeyed her President and deployed the National Guard. These are the same politicians who did nothing to stop the riots of the Summer of 2020 and have done nothing to apprehend the criminals who orchestrated $billions of property damages, injuries, and deaths.
Because Congress was slow to act or ineffective, Trump issued Executive Orders during his Presidency.
Repeatedly, Democrats found a leftist Judge to issue an injunction to stop the implementation of the order. In most instances, these injunctions were determined to be illegal. But each situation caused delays in important actions, just to bog down Trump’s Administration.
If these were not enough examples of a conspiracy, consider that last week, the FBI, a key branch of the politically weaponized Justice Department, executed an unannounced raid on Trump’s private property in Mar a Lago. It is not clear whether this was anything other than a fishing expedition to try to find something, anything to damage Trump.
Based on experience, the FBI will “find” something to incriminate Trump, and this cloud will prevail until after the midterms.
Meanwhile, we are still waiting for the FBI report on Hunter’s laptop, or Hillary’s emails for that matter.
Leftist actions to cancel Donald Trump are un-American, unlawful, unethical, and are driven by one and only one motive. Prevent him from running for President in 2024.
Trump is not of the Democratic Elite establishment.
He is outspoken about “draining the swamp” that is Washington DC, where career politicians appoint agency heads that perpetuate their agenda from Administration to Administration. Trump threatens their jobs and their power. He is a disruptor, and he interferes with their path to socialism and total control of America. Because of Trump’s abrasive personality and style, his supporters are now vulnerable to shifting our allegiance. But we cannot let ourselves to be tricked by this conspiracy to negate Trump. We need a tough General like Trump to lead the Patriots’ war against those trying to ruin our country.
