Will Trump Be Impeached By The Senate? Congress Is Who Should Really Be Impeached.

One more post before my stated next post.  Quick comment here on the political wrangling over Trump’s involvement in the march on Washington.  First, I see many Democrats labeling the Trump supporter March as terrorists.  That’s baloney.  And, so was the label when applied to the BLM marches.  There were bad actors and possibly agent provocateurs in both as I noted back during the BLM marches. The FBI, which certainly spies on Americans has stated the largest terrorist threat are right wing radical groups. That’s probably true. But, even their numbers label this group at comprised of around 50,000 people.  We live in a nation of 330 million people. I’m surprised the number is that low.  Ditto with Antifa on the left. Both have legitimate grievances. But, their actions of violence harm innocent people.

I’ve noted many times on here that I’m as close to a pacifist as one can be without actually being one.  The American people can end this system in a week. It’s simple.  A coordinated walkout of all workers and non-corporate business owners would bring the system to its knees.  Or, simply stop buying or using anything other than essentials and the corporate power structure will collapse. Nonviolence works. Violence doesn’t. It plays into the hands of the establishment and gives them legitimate reasons to increase the laws and infrastructure to perpetuate its control over others.  But, people’s anger runs so deep and has been festering for so long, continued violence is likely. 

Should Donald Trump be impeached? Trump manipulates some of his followers into behavior that threatens society.  Does it rise to the level of impeachment?  It comes back to personal responsibility.  Did he actually make those people do anything?  No. Does he yell fire in a theater?  In some form, possibly. Do countless other politicians do this? Yes.  Here’s my perspective.  Which isn’t something that’ll be printed in the mainstream corporate media or uttered by politicians. 

Donald Trump should be impeached if everyone in Congress should be prosecuted for treason, expelled or recalled. And, I do mean literally everyone. Every single member of Congress has played some role in terrorizing Americans and people of the world. I can think of a few who tried to resist but in the end, they support the system for their own self-entitlement.  Trump used speech to manipulate the masses. Congress uses speech to manipulate the masses.  Here’s what Congress also has done.  Just a sample-

  1. Congress has committed treason by sending tens of millions of jobs overseas that has resulted in upwards of 100 million job losses. Those citizens are asked to re-train into some generally useless consumption position that serves corporate hyper-consumerism or corporations.
  2. Congress is terrorizing free speech and privatizing the execution of speech police by fascist Silicon Valley corporations, corporate media and the like. (Btw, Silicon Valley was created by the government and the military industrial complex. It’s not an irony that I’ve noted numerous times on here over the last dozen years that Apple, Google and Facebook were headed for extinction.)
  3. Congress’s inaction on social safety nets, an Enlightenment Principle, results in the deaths of hundreds of thousands of Americans every year. And, even more deal with sickness and despondency.  Lack of access to healthcare, the opioid epidemic of despair, food addictions created by economic instability and poverty, corporate government-created poverty that leads to heart attacks, cancer and the like, etc, etc,
  4. Congress in concert with corporations has bludgeoned small business and killed the hopes and dreams of families and American citizens. And, as a result, has created massive despondency and emotional instability.
  5. Congress funds endless unconstitutional wars that terrorize innocent people around the world.  This, as well as CIA and US government plots to destroy democratic movements and support pliant dictators, has resulted in the deaths of millions of people outside of our nation.  And, has left hundreds of thousands of US families with loss of loved ones, mental illness and disabled veterans.
  6. Congress forces endless numbers of people into corporate state induced poverty by not providing them economic opportunity, guaranteed work or a democratic economic environment where they can serve their communities by opening their own businesses.
  7. Congress commits treason by selling out the American people to corporate lobbyists, foreign agent lobbyists and other scumbags that line the pockets of US politicians while they are in office or after they leave office.

I could go on and on by collecting the grievances of the American people against the corporate state’s ruling class.  Like all systems of class and hierarchy, Congress takes no responsibility for the outcomes of their actions. 

Trump will almost certainly be impeached by both houses of Congress for two reasons.  1) Because fascist Republicans (Democrats are right-wing fascists too) fear his return in 2024 and want to place a permanent label on him. (That will likely backfire)  2) Because everyone in the wildly corrupt political machines views him as a threat to their entitlement. And someone who incites the little people with no voice.   To not accept their fate as dictated to them by corporations, bankers and politicians.  It’s wildly bizarre because Trump has been corporate America’s best friend on taxes but their enemy on globalization.  In his own way, I can only imagine he believes lowering taxes will repatriate overseas jobs.  That didn’t and won’t work.  The US will have to strip corporations, banks and government policy that enables both of their power and return to a tariff-based economy as it existed until Wall Street, corporations and the political stooges literally overthrew our democracy. It certainly wasn’t perfect before that but our nation’s tyranny grew in magnitudes with the adoption of corporate capitalism as a control system.

What the completely-out-of-touch politicians don’t seem to realize is there actions are going to incite future unrest and volatility. Large swaths of the American people have had literally most everything taken from them. And, we know when people have nothing to lose, they lose their fear that this system of conformity requires to perpetuate itself.  The US is a soft form of totalitarianism that requires Americans to willfully accept our slavery.  As long as the masses had a pot to piss in, that form of brainwashing and propaganda generally worked. Of course, with the fear of poverty, homelessness or prison behind it; the social safety nets of corporate capitalism.
