On January 15, 2020, a press conference was held by Nancy Pelosi and other far left Congressional Democrats of the nation’s 116th Congress, after handing articles of impeachment to the Senate, announcing Adam Schiff as the lead manager of the Senate trial for the ‘historic’ impeachment of the 45th President of the United States, Donald J. Trump.
The word ‘historic’ is emphasized in this article, not because President Trump’s impeachment should be considered historic, (it should actually be considered a sham and an embarrassment for the nation), but to illustrate how utterly absurd it is that the Democrats and their lapdog media puppets continue to refer to President Trump’s impeachment as ‘historic.’ I don’t recall any member of the mainstream liberal media ever referring to President Bill Clinton’s impeachment as ‘historic.’ Truly America’s mainstream media is as far to the left, biased, and non-objective as can be. They really are Democrat operatives at this point, nothing more than the Democrat propaganda media machine.
The January 15 press conference was astonishingly cringeworthy to listen to. A stuttering Nancy Pelosi, who seemed like she was suffering from alcohol withdrawal, uttered some of the nation’s most historic quotes and had the gall to compare them to what the Democrats continually allege that President Trump did: ask Ukraine to interfere in our national elections and threaten to withhold foreign aid from Ukraine if they didn’t. Of course, this is EXACTLY what quid pro quo Joe Biden did. Biden was caught on tape admitting to extortion and bragging about it, as he demanded Ukraine fire a prosecutor investigating Burisma, an oil company, and its corrupt dealings that involved Joe Biden’s son, Hunter Biden, or else they would not get the foreign aid money. Democrats keep playing by the playbook, “Accuse the other side of that which you are guilty.” When will this trick get old and people stop going along with it?
This January 15th press conference was beyond the theatre of the absurd.
Here are some of the things that were said by Nancy Pelosi…
00:57 mark: “As I’ve said, it’s always been, our Founders, when they started, ‘When in the course of human events it becomes necessary when’… Abraham Lincoln, ‘Four score and seven years ago’… Thomas Paine, ‘These are the times that try men’s souls, the times that found us.’ Again and again, even our poets, Longfellow, remember ‘Listen my children and you will hear the midnight ride of Paul Revere.’ The 18th of April in 75 hardly a man is now alive who remembers that famous day and year… It is always about marking history.”
Nancy Pelosi, the Speaker of the House of Representatives, did not compare the Democrats’ farce impeachment of President Trump to the genuine impeachments of Presidents Andrew Johnson or Bill Clinton. Noooo! Donald Trump’s impeachment was much more historic than that! It needed to be compared to other great historic events of America.
“When in the course of human events, it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another…” – Thomas Jefferson, The Declaration of Independence – 1776
“Four score and seven years ago our fathers brought forth on this continent, a new nation, conceived in Liberty, and dedicated to the proposition that all men are created equal.” – Abraham Lincoln, Gettysburg Address – 1863
“THESE are the times that try men’s souls.” – Thomas Paine, “The Crisis” – 1776
“Listen, my children, and you shall hear Of the midnight ride of Paul Revere, On the eighteenth of April, in Seventy-Five: Hardly a man is now alive Who remembers that famous day and year.” –Henry Wadsworth Longfellow, “The Ride of Paul Revere” – 1860
Sorry Nancy, go have another drink. President Trump’s impeachment is not comparable to the nation’s Declaration of Independence, the Gettysburg Address after America’s Civil War, or to the brave men who fought for our independence and freedom of our great nation.
President Trump’s impeachment is comparable to a kangaroo court in a banana republic. Unfortunately for Americans, the Democrat Party is still a viable political party in the United States and represents the socialist / communist / banana republic wing of the nation.
“A Republic, if you can keep it.” – Ben Franklin – 1787
THESE are indeed the times that try men’s souls! Good Americans are going to have to stand up and fight for our President, Donald J. Trump, and beat back the commie-socialist hordes that want to remove him from office ONE WAY OR ANOTHER and turn our American republic into a banana republic.
