Why Trump Supporters are Not Protesting in the Streets Over Impeachment.......
.theepochtimes ^ | 12/22/2019 | Brian Cates

When the denizens of the left are upset about something, there are mass protests, often accompanied by rioting, vandalism, violence, and arrests...But the American right is not like the American left.

So although Trump supporters were certainly not happy at having to watch this impeachment theater, their frustrations did not boil over. That’s because everyone knew, with the possible exception of the more rabid corners of the left’s base, that none of this was real.

The Democrat strategy is to spend the next eleven months claiming to the American people that they should not even seriously consider reelecting an impeached President.

And should Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsberg be forced into retirement due to health reasons before this next election, it will also be claimed that the American people simply cannot allow an impeached President to nominate her successor.

This is the strategy of an increasingly desperate party that knows Trump and the GOP have a distinct and growing advantage over them right now as the country heads into the new year.

So as strange as this observation might seem to those who get their news from the DNC Media Complex, as Trump is impeached by rabid partisan Democrats frantic to reverse their political fortunes, he is actually growing stronger and is poised for a most unique reelection campaign, the likes of which this country has never before witnessed.

Whatever Democrats believed the results would be of this impeachment debacle, it’s clear at this point they made a massive miscalculation. Far from following the left’s path of civil unrest and protest, Trump supporters will be inspired to send their message to Washington on Nov. 3, 2020.

I think the primaries are going to be interesting.

Why wait for the general to get rid of those who voted for impeachment?

EVERY House member is running for election(re-election) except for those quitting the office.

Ben Franklin was known for his sardonic, gallows humor. He was speaking in jest.
When the Founders meant High Crimes and Misdemeanors, they meant treason or murder. Not because the President was a meanie.
Otherwise, totally @sshole Presidents like LBJ would have been impeached on day 1.

Because WE DO NOT DO THAT.

For eight long years, I was heartsick living under an Obummer administration that was trying to DESTROY our country. And yet, I would never confront, intimidate, insult, protest and generally make a fool of myself by lowering myself to their standards.

We just don’t do that, but according to Cavuto...”both sides do it”...which is BS.

The last time conservatives came out in force was at Tea Party meet-ups. Then the tea party fizzled out. But there was no denying the crowds that showed up.

maybe it’s time for the Pitchfork Party???????

Because Patriots are too busy loading magazines to bother with protesting.

If they are forced to take to the streets, it will be unconditional, asymmetric, 4th generation warfare and Progtard DildoCrats shall become extinct.

If there are any copies of the Geneva Conventions present during this soirée, they will be used as toilet paper.

That was my first thought as well. Many are recruited and get paid to protest.

Here’s a good article discussing Benjamin Franklin’s view on impeachment. It actually changed my mind on the issue.

I prefer to calling it “higher ground” for a better vantage point when they ignite their pyre.

Why are you even inciting violence? That’s what the Dems do. we are far from going into the streets and if it comes to that it will not be with violence unless it’s stirred up by trigger happy idiots. Don’t be a fool!

No intention of inciting violence, just accurately forecasting the already high and rising probabilities of it occurring. Prepare for the worst; pray and hope for the best.

The number of people who have died or destroyed their careers trying to prove me wrong is not small.

The number of lives and fortunes I’ve saved is much higher.

The Progtard DildoCrats are attempting to remake the Titanic. It doesn’t matter, in the end the boat still sinks.

Check out the (lack of) success rates of every socialist government that ever existed. If you need further proof look at every major city in this country that is under DildoCrat governance.
