The “Rule of Law” Ruse

December 19, 2019

The most egregious lie on display during the whole impeachment drama is the lie that Schiff, Schumer, Pelosi, Nadler, and the other Bolsheviks masquerading as “Democrats” are champions of constitutionalism and the rule of law.  This is exactly the opposite of reality, and anyone with a brain should know it.  Raw, arbitrary, unchallenged political power is what motivates every fiber in their totalitarian beings, and they hate Trump because he imposed a tiny roadblock on their road to totalitarianism.  The whole purpose of the so-called rule of law has for centuries been to deter just such behavior.  Getting Trump out of office will lead to more arbitrary rule and less rule of law, not more.  These are people, after all, who wanted to coronate Hillary Clinton as Queen of America.  The notion that impeaching and convicting Trump promotes the rule of law is a farce and an absurdity.
