If the Trump Arrest Means Anything, It Is the Fact That It Confirms the Billionaire's Charges Against the Deep State

What is most stunning about the Donald Trump indictment is the fact that insofar as it means anything, insofar as it means anything at all, it is how it confirms Trump's own charge about the Deep State and, thus, how important it is that he pursue his fight against the Swamp. It also confirms why Orangeman's tweets are — and in fact deserve to be — nasty.

Remember. He fights.

It also confirms the Left's hypocrisy and its double standards: Back in the Clinton days, a quarter century ago, during Monicagate, the response was always "It's only sex!" 

We can all go back and forth about various similarities or differences between the two cases (which I wrote about in more detail two weeks ago), it all comes down to this: Leftists turned to Trump's alleged sexcapades, real or imagined (before their target was even in the White House), only when, and only because, they exhausted everything else — every single charge over six-seven years failing miserably.

In the 1990s, I disagreed with the decision to impeach Clinton, but at the same time, in retrospect, I can see the following: At least in the 1990s there was more to it than sex (accusations of perjury and obstruction of justice), the man accused was in the White House when what he was accused of occurred (remember the Oral Office jokes?), and once POTUS 42 had been tried, and once it had failed, it was over.

Furthermore, it confirms Trump's adage: "In reality they're not after me; they're after you. I'm just in the way."

Matt Margolis gave voice to this earlier Monday when he asked, Will you be next?

It is true that just because Trump is a former president, he is not above the law, but he’s not exempt from equal justice under the law either. But the offense he’s been accused of is so minor that it normally merits a fine—just ask Hillary.

The idea that a former president—and a current presidential candidate—can be singled out by a flagrantly biased district attorney for a non-felony offense suggests that anyone, including you, could also be targeted for their political beliefs when they don’t align with those in power.

There will always be some leftist spewing out that the proof that POTUS45 is nothing but a conman/a criminal/a traitor/a disaster is that he is the only president to be impeached twice — and now to be indicted and arrested.

No. The only conclusion to be taken from this is that in its desire to create a one-party state, the Democratic Party is willing to turn the country into a banana republic.

We have a party using Soviet-style intimidation like the communist despots their leaders admire.

At the time of the Cold War, the overall strategy was that the best way forward for everybody, the best win-win on both sides of the Iron Curtain, was for the Kremlin's communist overlords to emulate the West and turn its country into a Western-style democracy.

Today, the West seems instead to be inspired by the Chinese communists, with the FBI and all the other government departments emulating the KGB and the Stasi and functioning as Joe Biden's personal Gestapo.

With all their (self-serving) narratives, Leftists have turned Trump into Orwell's Emmanuel Goldstein, 1984's enemy of the people which has to be reminded on a daily basis of Goldstein's villainy and treachery during the daily Two Minutes of Hate.

Like Trump, the American people (at least, those who do not vote for the Democrats) is loathed and nothing that the Democrat Party has done in the past few years seems to be for anything but to vilify them, to impoverish them, and/or to shame them. The only entity that seems to benefit from the its decisions and laws — besides themselves and their friends in the élite — seems to be communist China, from the spike in prices to the outsourcing of work, from closing down America's pipelines to releasing the strategic oil reserve, from letting Beijing have a veto over Hollywood's scripts to having schools sexualize our children and teach them what a despicable country they live in.

As Glenn Reynolds puts it, If a defeated United States were occupied and the occupiers were trying to undermine America, and working Americans’ quality of life, what would they be doing differently?

Many — certainly not many Democrats — can't seem to understand the rise of populists like that atrocious Donald Trump across the globe. It is explained by the fact that we are currently being ruled by what Instapundit calls garbage people.

It is time to harken back to the old meme: Instead of telling us (endlessly) what you hate about Donald Trump (and how much you hate POTUS 45), why not tell us what you love (or like) about Joe Biden, the Clintons, and other members of the Democrat Party? 

Is it the way that the Biden family members got rich in China? Is it the way that Hillary sold America's uranium to the Kremlin? Was it the brilliant way Biden handled the Afghanistan retreat? Isn't that chaotic debacle what encouraged Moscow and Beijing to rattle their sabers, with the former actually resorting to war a year ago? (Oh, wait.  We're not supposed to focus on any of those kinds of things…)

Wonderful, Democrats. Get us all into something unimaginable just two or three years ago: World War III. We prefer the nation's division, the nation's impoverishment, and nuclear war on a world-wide scale to the presence in the White House of Bad Orangeman and his nasty tweets.

You see, what all this boils down to is that it is not Trump's supporters who are crazed fanatics blinded by their hatred. It is the Democrats' supporters — those in America itself as well as those in Europe and elsewhere abroad. (Update: thanks to Ed for the the Instalink.)
