Reasons to Impeach tRump

 REASONS TO IMPEACH tRUMP 

1. tRump planned, laid the foundation for, and incited an angry, murderous mob of domestic terrorists to carry out an attack on the United States Capitol to overthrow the government and threaten the United States Congress to prevent the certification of the free and fair election of the President of the United States.  This was a super spreader event that would turn lethal in more ways than one.

     - tRump lit the flame for this insurrection with a lie that he began telling even before he lost the election and has been fanning the flames ever since by falsely claiming that he won the election by a landslide.  (Note that when he lost the popular vote last time but won the exact same Electoral College votes as Biden has this time, he also claimed that he won by a landslide.)  He and republicans cry over the hurt feelings of tRump's 74 million voters, but they totally disregard the interests of Biden's 81 million voting majority.

     - tRump told the mob to fight and never give up.  His family, lawyers, staff, and Republican leaders told the crowd to do battle.  It was a rallying cry for "patriots" versus "traitors" to take back the Capitol.  It was blatantly endorsed by the leader of the free world and his partners in crime.  Of course, these "patriots" would go on to honor the American flag by using it to beat police officers over the head (as opposed to kneeling before it) to make their point.  They would also exercise their 2nd Amendment rights by attacking a police officer while yelling, "Kill him with his own gun!"

     - tRump and his enablers coordinated and encouraged the gathering of this mob.  They knew that it would only take a whisper from tRump to get the fire burning hot.  These white supremacists had been called to violent action many times by tRump in the past and were waiting with bated breath for another chance to show their strength.  They had "Stand Back and Stand By" t-shirts ready to wear the same day that tRump instructed them at the presidential debate!

     - tRump told the mob that he would join them but abandoned them while he retreated to safety instead. Some of them were even looking for him at the Capitol.  (But, of course, he would not risk being caught in the crossfire!)

     - These threats were well known on social media and encouraged by tRump.

     - The deadly plot had been rehearsed in Michigan at the state capitol and against the governor.  This was also encouraged by tRump.

     - tRump watched the terrorist attack on the United States Capitol on television with delight, not understanding why others did not seem to enjoy the spectacle.  (It was as "wild" as he had promised!)  While he entertained himself, Republicans hiding in the safe room mocked the mask-wearing Democrats as they gave them the coronavirus that their caring leader had unleashed on us all.

     - tRump refused to respond to pleas for the National Guard.  Mike Pence called in the National Guard while he hid from terrorists erecting a lynching stand with a noose and chanting "Hang Mike Pence!"  Pence's crime in their eyes consisted of not betraying his country by stealing the election for tRump.  Instead, he was simply counting the votes as the constitution dictates.

     - tRump would only send a message to the terrorists to stop the attack after hours of being urged to do so.  When he finally did, he sympathized with them and told them that they were special and that he loved them.

     - tRump would only concede the election and condemn the violence in an attempt to avoid impeachment.  Even then, he continued the election lie, knowingly continuing to fan the flames of insurrection.

2. We must prevent him from running for president again.  No one wants a president who once tried to blow up the Capitol, murder Congress, and lynch his own vice president just to get his way.  (What a temper tantrum that was!  Those traitors actually defecated and urinated in those sacred halls!)  pResident tRump can not be allowed to have access to the nuclear codes or national secrets again.

3. The American taxpayer must not be forced to pay $1 million dollars a year for this traitor's security expenses.  We have already paid millions for his golf games.  (We have even paid $3,000 a month since 2017 for a basement studio for the Secret Service to go to the bathroom while protecting tRump's daughter's family!)  Let's not even mention the millions of dollars that have disappeared from every budget, fund, account, campaign, and foundation that the tRumps have ever touched!

4. We must send a clear message to terrorists everywhere who would seek to destroy American democracy that it will not be tolerated.  We have never negotiated with or catered to or tolerated terrorists in the past, and we certainly do not need to begin now:  no exceptions.

5. We must let the free world know that we in no way endorse or condone this buffoon.  We must apologize for unleashing him onto the world and empowering him to wreak havoc.

6. We must apply at least some consequence to the orchestrator of the greatest death toll that America has ever seen.  This includes deaths due to coronavirus, white supremacists, terrorists, immigration policies, environmental crimes, war crimes, and hasty executions.

7. We must prevent him from having the power to pardon even one more vicious killer or ruthless criminal to simply repay an underhanded favor to a fellow criminal.
