opinion

  As the fact checkers are busy explaining every statement Joe makes is being taken out of context, the house managers are busy building a case against Trump based on that. " I don't work for you. " That's what Joe Biden said during a campaign rally. Post that and the fact checkers will correct you immediately saying it is taken out of context. Same thing if you quote Joe saying, "dog faced liar" and a number of other direct quotes. Yes, that is what he said, but it isn't what he meant to say! He shouldn't be held accountable for any of those statements. He misspoke. How many times has Joe misspoke? Well, that number grows daily and so we'll have to wait. Meanwhile an entire crew of editors prepared segments of video, pieced together for maximum effect, and presenting that as "reality. " Nothing out of context in those videos! An entire string of statements made by Trump and not one taken out of context! Now, he didn't actually say those things, but he meant too. We all know that, don't we? The house managers surely are convinced by the theatrical performance of some of their fellow lawmakers. Near death experiences abound and all caused by Trump speaking. Yes, every word an impeachable offense. Never mind that he never actually said that, we know what was the intent was. It's what he meant! 
 And so here we are impeachment attempt number two. The first one ended in acquittal and so will this one. The first time was the same thing, he said this but we all know he meant that. Now when old Joe told Ukraine to fire their prosecutor or they wouldn't get any money that isn't what he meant though, no he was just being a concerned father. Those Ukrainians were trying to bully his son. Why any father would have done the same thing! But when Trump asked for alleged wrongdoing to be investigated the Democrats jumped on that. Hey, just because Hunter Biden is involved in some shady deals and his daddy, the vice-president of the United States attempted to bribe officials to not look into any of that, that's no reason the President should be concerned! He's just trying to gain political favors! Why, with that one statement alone he asked the Russians and Ukrainians to rig the elections! Nothing taken out of context with those conversations. And today Trump said, if you want to keep your country you have to fight like hell. Well, that's obviously a call to storm the capital. He sent horn man to rescue the country! The weapons of choice were a fire extinguisher and stealing Nancy's laptop! The capital police opened the doors and escorted this militia into the capital building, they were overwhelmed! 
 The saddest part in all of this is the willingness of the people to allow a trial based on public opinion. Make no mistake about it, that is what this impeachment trial is all about, as well as the first one. It is based solely on opinions, not facts. Those that decided over four years ago that they just don't like Trump continue to try him on public opinion alone. Thing is, it isn't even a majority opinion! But the majority is being silenced by big tech, pharmaceutical companies, and energy concerns. Big money is the driving force, big money and hate. How dare this outsider, this non-politician enter the picture and upset the gravy train! Energy independence? OMG we can't have that. All groups of people being treated equally? No, no, no. Certain groups can not make it on their own, they need help! Lots of help and they will get it as long as they vote the proper way. Inequity? Why even Covid is being prejudicial in attacking black Americans! And what about those that do not have the latest high speed internet connections and thousand dollar laptops? We should provide that to them, free of cost! To not do that isn't equitable. Big brother controlling what is disseminated over that internet, what lessons are taught, doesn't play into any of that though. The Democrats are here to help! Trump would have those children go to an actual school, with real teachers, imagine that. No, it is far better to have our children cower in the corner and learn the lesson from the state sponsored web sites. The state will tell you all you need to know. The approved lesson plan.
 It is the court of public opinion. The state will now tell you what the words mean. Doesn't matter what you heard, this is what it is. Empirical evidence notwithstanding the state will tell you what is what. The government insists Bruce Jenner is a woman! Empirical evidence proves quite the opposite however, but ignore that. Climate change is something new, caused by humans and cow farts. Our love of Big Mac's is destroying the planet. The earth was created as a fiery ball after the big bang. That's the science we are taught. There were at least two ice ages, when the earth was cold. Now the earth is warming up and it's our fault. If we only didn't eat beef we could still be enjoying an ice age. But climate change is a real threat. It's obvious to even the most casual observer that the climate continually changes. But we should believe science, we have to believe the science, well unless a guy thinks he's a girl then just ignore science altogether. When ever it makes you feel better, forget about science, opinion is what is best.
 Well this sham trial will be over soon enough, an acquittal is forthcoming. Of course the state of Georgia has filed some charges against Trump, a sort of back-up plan. More charges based on words. Trump asking for a fair and transparent accounting of votes cast is obviously an attempt to steal an election. Well, he threatened them! That's their opinion anyway. I hold a different opinion altogether. In my opinion if you have nothing to hide you don't care how closely someone examines the evidence. But that was met with resistance and I have to ask why? 
 Well here's my opinion. If the Democrats hadn't resisted every policy, every move, every word that Trump spoke for the last four years we wouldn't be in this mess. In my opinion it is the left that is responsible for what took place. You know, poke someone in the eye long enough and they will strike back. It doesn't justify the action but provides the reason for that action. For over four years the left pushed and prodded, they attempted to remove him from office, they refused to cooperate with any bi-partisan legislation. Pelosi tears up his speech in front of the world. Then there are numerous irregularities in the voting. Numbers mysteriously skyrocket in the middle of the night. leads vanish and margins increase in numbers never before seen. There are more votes cast than voters in the country. And when questioned the questioners are told to shut up, it's all just a conspiracy theory. No real investigation into any of that is allowed. Yes, we had recounts, counted by the same people that counted those votes the first time. Really independent checks? No evidence is ever presented to assure the public that the voting was legit. The best admission we got was, yes there were irregularities, just a little bit of fraud, and some cheating but it wasn't enough to change the outcome. And in my opinion that true because the outcome had been predetermined regardless. That's my opinion.
