Impeach Now

Last month, I wrote a letter outlining the multiple ways in which Trump is unfit to hold the office of president, either due to malfeasance or incompetence.

Sadly, after just 3 weeks, that letter is already out of date:

President Donald Trump has been talking to his friends about possibly asking Attorney General Jeff Sessions to prosecute Robert Mueller, the special counsel overseeing the Russia probe, and his team, NBC News reported.

. . . 

Fineman quotes an unnamed Trump advisor as saying: "Here's how it would work: 'We're sorry, Mr. Mueller, you won't be able to run the federal grand jury today because he has to go testify to another federal grand jury.'" 

It's unclear what charges Mueller could possibly face in such a situation.

I don't care what your politics are or who you voted for.  If you have any respect whatsoever for the rule of law, you raise holy hell when ANY president even CONSIDERS starting baseless prosecutions of people, ESPECIALLY the person investigating that president for possible wrongdoing.

If this were the only thing Trump had done wrong since taking office, it would still be an impeachable offense.

The fact that 100% of the Republicans in Congress and a sizable chunk of the American population just shrug this off --- and in fact, believe that TRUMP is the one being VICTIMIZED by an extra-constitutional conspiracy --- should scare the living hell out of you.
