We knew that Russia was aiding Trump before the election. It was not common knowledge, but the information was out there. Rachel Maddow was carrying the reports. Most people were too preoccupied with hating Hillary. We now know that much of that was fueled by the Russian disinformation campaign. I suspect they also infiltrated Bernie’s campaign with the anti-Clinton rhetoric.
But now, the evidence is becoming more available and frequent. The latest story is the New York Time’s story that the Trump campaign was in regular communications with Russia. That, of course, means that the NSA already has those communications.
But the Republicans have already vowed that they will not investigate further. Right now, there are a few rogue law makers that want an investigation. Dems will gladly hold those investigations.
But public opinion is moving very quickly. Now, according to the latest PPP pole, 46% want impeachment. The Republicans will be influenced by that change in public opinion.
That’s where we come in. They call us snowflakes. I have started calling their offices. I never get a real person. I always get an answering machine. But I inform them that the snowflakes are united. Winter is coming. There is going to be an avalanche in 2018. To get an investigation into the Russian/Trump connection, we MUST pressure the Republicans. Only fear of their own backside will get them to do the right thing.
Republicans are not patriots. It’s all about party, until their asses are on the line.
