The Democrats' Entire Agenda After The Midterms: Investigate Trump, 24/7
Investor's Business Daily ^ | IBD Editorial Board

Posted on 08/28/2018 5:24:52 AM PDT by IBD editorial writer

2018 Elections: If Democrats take the House this November, the one and only item on their legislative agenda will be to keep the Trump administration buried under useless, politically motivated investigations. So much for their "For the People" slogan.

For a while, Democrats tried to peddle an actual legislative agenda should they — as many expect they will — win more than 23 House seats in November.

They traveled a whole 67 miles outside Washington, D.C., last summer to unveil their "A Better Deal" economic plan. It was supposed to show how in touch Democrats were with regular working folks, but the slogan, to say nothing of the tired agenda, backfired.

So, they tried again a year later, repackaging their policies under a new slogan called "For the People," and then basically told candidates they should run on whatever works in their own districts.

As the New York Times put it, Democrats "are discarding the lessons of successful midterms past and pressing only a bare-bones national agenda, leaving it to candidates to tailor their own messages to their districts."

Democrats do have an agenda, however, one they plan to pursue with abandon should they take the House: Tie the Trump administration up in endless investigations, then hope they can stitch together something to justify impeaching the president.

Therefore, jaywalking in 1982 or letting his dog crap on a neighbour’s property at about the same time would likely lead to impeachment, eh?

This strategy would be devastating to a Bush or other globalist pub but Trump will attack. Move his own people into the department heads and start releasing material that would prove embarrassing.

“The Democrats’ Entire Agenda After The Midterms: Investigate Trump, 24/7”

The Left’s gonna have to create some additional hours per day, maybe a extra day of the week...like the Beatles did...”Eight Days A Week”.

They’ve slap run out of 24/7.

Actually those would be considered major offenses necessitating an armed coup. Mere impeachment could be triggered by something as small as blinking twice in rapid succession.

The Detroit News reported Michigan’s Democrat party gave the “green light” to a group called “DigiDems”
to conduct a phishing test on the DNC without authorization from the DNC or its vendors.

Democrats have become a danger to us all. They are now the party of:
<><> People who are organized for electronic wrong-doing.
<><> People who hate and denigrate America.
<><> People who foisted on our Nation a Muslim foreigner who hated America.
<><> People hanging on to flawed leaders Bill, Hillary, Nancy.
<><> People who believe transsexual cakes are more important than a thriving U.S. economy.
<><> People who believe plastic straws are the enemy.
<><> People who believe what’s wrong with America can best be solved with more convicts voting.
<><> People who “celebrate” abortion for convenience.
<><> People who put killer illegals before innocents like Kate Steinle and Mollie Tibbets.
<><> People turning school-age children into fodder for pedophiles.
<><> People who cheer the destruction of American heritage and its monuments.
<><> People who deplore Christian values.
<><> People who openly support the legalization of sexual perversions.
<><> People who openly sow the culture with confusion.
<><> People who elevate the lives of savage gangs like MS-13 above the lives of Americans.
<><> People who worship abortion and all of its butchery.


Dems and the Deep State are still smarting over the fact that “shoo-in Hillary” couldn’t be dragged over the finish line——

<><> despite the Deep State pulling for her,
<><> despite having the MSM in her pocket,
<><> tech titans working the electronic fraud wizardry,
<><> the Obama intel apprat working 24/7, and,
<><> hundreds of millions of dollars spent.

The failure of every crooked political deal they got rankles them.

For these imbeciles, violence, and impeachment, really are their only option.

We need to drive home the message.....emphasizing that these “get Trump” activities imperil all Americans.

Bypassing and demolishing structures built into govt to protect our safety and security cannot go unanswered.

Desperate Democrats, hungry for power have always cheered for Hillary Clinton b/c she empowered them.
But Hillary’s M/O has been exposed and it isnt pretty:
<><> her mishandling of top secret intel,
<><> the massive pay-for-play scheme wrought by The Clinton Foundation,
<><> using public office to get-rich-quick.
<><> serial crimes committed even as she campaigned for president.

The “get Trump” activities to “find crimes” cant be separated from the numerous crimes already committed.

All of this leaked Democrat stuff is a ploy....... what Democrats actually plan to do is sow confusion among the electorate.

It's already begun in a 1000 ways.

LANNY DAVIS IS THE PERFECT LYING, OBFUSCATING DEMOCRAT:
“I should have been more clear (WRT the Cohen case) that I could not independently confirm what happened,” Lanny said.

So he lied.

Lanny is the paradigm Democrat----so perfect at sowing confusion into the political milieu with a lie, a smile and an apology......
........so terribly, terribly Democratic.

It has only just begun.

".... The Democrats' Entire Agenda After The Midterms: Investigate Trump, 24/7...."

Help me here if I'm confused.

But I thought Trump was already being investigated 24/7 by his enemies.

What would change after the midterms?

When the Republicans chose to ignore the crimes of Obama and Clinton, they thought they would just be nice. They are idiots. The dems will destroy any Republican on nothing if they can. There were real crimes committed with plenty of evidence during the Obama years. The Republicans ignored. Disgusting.

If this should happen, use the IRS to audit every democrat at federal and state level.

Mark Levin said, get this straight before anything else, “impeachment can only be for something the Potus did IN office.” You can charge him with a crime after he is out of office, but not in office.

Confusion and lie files are the only thing the left has to work with they have no idea how to move the country forward.
They will never give up their plantation of full power or nothing and take the country with them.

Davis (with CNN's help) made CNN look even worse than before by pulling the rug from under the "reliable source" comedy. It's almost as if Davis wants Trump to look good....

Or maybe the Dem/media clown show is a natural effect of stupidity.

Yes, it does seem sort of like that.
