Obstruction of Justice by Donald Trump are "thousandfold" more than anything in the past

"Trump is a compulsive liar"....

Donald Trump is guilty of serial documented occasions when he has deliberately obstructed justice.

This echo opinion letter was published in the Bismark Tribune, a North Dakota newspaper. 

Does obstruction of justice sound familiar? “The thing that's so appalling to me is that the president, when this whole idea was suggested to him, didn't, in righteous indignation, rise up and say, get out of here, you're in the office of the president of the United States. How can you talk about blackmail and bribery and keeping witnesses silent? 

This is the presidency of the United States. But my president didn't do that. He sat there and he worked and worked to try to cover this thing up so it wouldn't come to light.”

Evidence of Donald Trump directing obstruction of justice is enough to begin impeachment.

Actually, it’s Republican Rep. Lawrence Hogan who said it in 1974, in the House Judiciary Committee.

He was the only high-minded Republican representative to vote to impeach President Richard Nixon.

House Judiciary Committee Chairman Jerry Nadler has subpoenaed former White House counsel Don McGahn, seeking testimony and documents related to the committee’s investigation into obstruction of justice by President Donald Trump. 

In fact, Nadler also subpoenaed the Justice Department for the uncensored copy of the Robert Mueller report, and requested that Mueller testify before the committee.
Paul Rosenzweig, who served as counsel to Ken Starr, (who recommended the impeachment of President Bill Clinton), said Trump’s attempts to obstruct justice are a “thousandfold” more than anything Clinton did.
Trump is a compulsive liar. The Washington Post has documented evidence, that as president, he has made more then 10,000 false or misleading claims.

At a political rally in Wisconsin, as his crowd booed and screamed; Trump described a hideous scenario that he insists Democrats approve of:

Evil tRump falsely claimed.....

(Lies!) Ugh.....

“The baby is born, the mother meets with the doctor, they take care of the baby, they wrap the baby beautifully and then the doctor and the mother determine whether or not they will execute the baby.” He then made a chopping motion with his hand.

Donald Trump ignored Russia warnings

An echo opinion found in the Bismark Tribune, a North Dakota newspaper, published letter to the editor.  Maine Writer "echo blogs" are opinions found while randomly cruising the nation's newspapers. I'm particularly fond of finding and blogging from conservative newspapers, where there are plenty of anti-Trump opinions. Evindently, the White House doesn't read these contrarian points of view, otherwise, there would be more consideration given to uniting people in what should be the Trump "base". 
Clearly, there is trouble in @dateline - Trumpville.

Trump got warning related to Russians

On Dec. 18, it was revealed that the FBI briefed the Trump and Clinton campaigns back in August 2016 that "the Russians are coming -- the Russians are coming," and of course it was Donald Trump who couldn't bring himself to embrace the FBI conclusions.

Trump has since demeaned the agency, and all of law enforcement for that matter, in any and every way possible. 

During one of the debates, Hillary Clinton called Trump a "puppet" of the Russians, and he retorted "no puppet -- no puppet." Of course, Clinton knew better because she and her campaign got the same briefing from the FBI.

As bad as Trump's constant lying and denials of anything that resembles the truth may be, it's equally disheartening that our Sen. John Hoeven and Rep. Kevin Cramer can't exhale a bit, even long enough to utter any hint of condemnation of the president's aberrant (look that one up in the dictionary) behavior. 

In their defense, most Republicans in the House and Senate are holding their collective breaths, wondering what mean-spirited, hateful untruth will tumble from Trump's mouth, and what their defense of his behavior will be.

I didn't, nor ever could, vote for Hoeven or Cramer, but I do deserve better representation from them. 

Although Republicans finally passed something that resembles a tax bill (aka "tax cuts for the rich")~ (they're desperate to pass anything that has their name on it and that Trump can sign) ~ and that may be enough for Trump's base, but it doesn't bode well for the majority of Americans in the long haul.

Back to Trump for a final comment. His transgressions are numerous, but my guess is that Bob Mueller will hang his hat on obstruction of justice and money-laundering. 

Put those two things on a Post-it note and hang it on the fridge.
