GOP Traitors
There's pretty clear evidence now that the last 5 Republican presidents covertly colluded with a hostile foreign power:
1) Nixon with North Vietnam before the 1968 election
2) Reagan with Iran before the 1980 election
3) Reagan and Bush Sr with Iran in the mid-80's (Iran-Contra)
4) GWB with Saudi Arabia and al Qaeda (pre- and post-9/11)
5) Trump with Russia before the 2016 election
3 out of 5 times it was to help get elected.
First, it's interesting that Democratic presidents don't need such help, but that's probably because they actually have broadly popular policies and don't have to use sleazy corrupt means to get elected. You could make possibly cases for Clinton and Obama to have made some secret deals with hostile foreign powers, but really, there's nothing like what these last 5 GOP presidents have done.
Second, Nixon, Reagan and Bush Sr basically wriggled out of trouble for this collusion, though Nixon was eventually removed for other corrupt crimes in office.
GWB was let off the hook because clearly this country was not able to confront the truth about 9/11
I do think Trump will have trouble getting out of trouble for his collusion for a few reasons:
1) he's a dumb criminal and just does a lot of corrupt things right out in the open
2) Bob Mueller is as smart and tough of a prosecutor as they come
3) the case against Trump is as serious as you can get-- colluding with a foreign power to get elected where the foreign power actually attacks our election process -- that's way worse than what happened with Nixon and Reagan. It's on par with 9/11 but the thing with Trump is he doesn't have the national security state (aka deep state) behind him as Bush did.
4) what really sets Trump apart from the other Repubs is that Trump is quite obviously in the sway of Russia-- he didn't just make a deal with them, he became their AGENT. He spouts their propaganda even AGAINST the US state. It's clear that Trump is OWNED by Russia. This is simply treasonous in the most dire and intolerable way for a US president.
If the full charges and case against Trump are brought to light, as I think they will, Trump MUST be impeached, removed from office and sent to jail.
