This sums it up rather well.

Victor Davis Hanson has a piece in American Greatness regarding the soft coup against President Trump. It is well worth a read.

  1. VDH is a brilliant writer, lots of great stuff in this article including this:

    The Mueller probe has now failed in that gambit of proving “collusion” (as even progressive investigative reporters and some FBI investigators had predicted), but succeeded brilliantly in two ways.

    The “counterintelligence” investigation subverted two years of the Trump presidency by constant leaks that Trump soon would be indicted, jailed, disgraced, or impeached. As a result, Trump’s stellar economic and foreign policy record would never earn fifty percent of public support.

    Second, Mueller’s preemptive attacks offered an effective offensive defense for the likely felonious behavior of John Brennan, James Clapper, James Comey, Andrew McCabe, Bruce Ohr, Peter Strzok, and a host of others. While the Mueller lawyers threatened to destroy the lives of bit players like Jerome Corsi, George Papadopoulos, and Roger Stone, they de facto provided exemption to a host of the Washington hierarchy who had lied under oath, obstructed justice, illegally leaked to the press, unmasked and leaked names of surveilled Americans, and misled federal courts under the guise of a “higher loyalty” to the cause of destroying Donald J. Trump.

  2. Holy smokes, maybe in his next article he'll tell us how he REALLY feels!

    This is spot on Fay. This is SPOT ON. A lamppost and a length of rope for everyone named as a conspirator in this article would be true justice. Traitors! *spit*

  3. If President Trump doesn't hang them for treason in his second term, perhaps Don Jr. will accomplish the task in his first term.

    MAGA, MFers!

  4. I hear what you say about Don JR, but I think the last thing the Trumps wand is another political dynasty. I think they realize that that is part of what got us in this mess to begin with.

    That reminds me of some tweets I have read. People are saying that no one should run for President for their first political office, although they didn’t seem to mind Hillary being ordained as Senator for a term she did not complete before becoming Secretary of State then running for President. Somehow working in the artificial world of politics and government is better experience than being successful iin the real world.

  5. I'm with you all in spirit but I'm on a ragepr0n-free diet until I get my work done. I've been super busy.

  6. I love VDH, it's so refreshing to hear a calm, reasoned, intelligent analysis of whatever the topic happens to be. Plus, he's a lifelong resident of CA (IIRC) so his insight is doubly relevant.

    Not to mention - as evidenced by the linked article - the man can WRITE. Thanks for posting it, Matt. It makes me feel furious and impotent to do anything about it. Let's just hope his closing sentiments go from his pen to God's ears (to mess up the Yiddish expression).

    1. Hi flo! Thanks for appreciating VDH for me. He deserves it.

      I can't stand the "furious and impotent" aftertaste anymore.
