If our Caesar Disgustus isn't shitting himself, he
should be. As noted in a previous post, (1) Republican Justin Amash,
representing greater Grand Rapids, Michigan emerged last week as the
first elected member of his party to call for impeachment proceedings
against our erstwhile authoritarian. Amash joins a rump group of
about 40 or so House and Senate Democrats to call for the impeachment
of our bastard president as well as over a thousand and counting
present and former federal prosecutors who have signed a statement
saying that, given the evidence, tRUMP—if he were not the sitting
'president'--would have been indicted, arraigned and put on trial.
The conventional wisdom was that Amash was inviting the
wrath of tRUMP's knuckle-dragging constituency who would show up at
his next town hall meeting and demand his hide. Amash, unlike
representative Huizenga, who misrepresents the lake shore areas of
Holland, Grand Haven, Muskegon and outlying areas, is not afraid to
meet his constituents. Huizenga, has even canceled town-hall
meetings while running for re-election, so out of step has the modern
reSCUMlickan party become. Nevertheless the congressman from Grand
Rapids convened with his constituents at the DeVos hall and was
greeted with a standing ovation. The first question from the
audience was introduced by a gentleman who first commended Amash for
his courage. The response was another standing ovation.
Oh yes, there were the few tRUMPsters who, predictably
incoherent, tried to smear the congressman and protest the innocence
of the most corrupt man ever to sit in the presidential chair, but
the audience overall was nearly universally supportive.
Amash represents the district formerly held by Gerald
Ford and, unlike Ford, readily recognizes criminality and malfeasance
and has taken a stand in opposition to it. On may recall, that Gerry
was late to the bonfire roasting Richard Nixon and, in the end,
pardoned Nixon for his crimes against the people. In any case this
district has elected a Democrat only once in living memory, Richard
VanderVeen in the wake of Watergate. It took Nixon's crimes and the
disgust with Ford's pardon to catapult a Democrat into this seat, so
solidly Republican has been the district. That Amash, now the first
Republican member of Congress to call for impeachment proceedings
against a 'rescumlickan' president be greeted back home with standing
ovations should make Disgustus shit himself. The sitting president
has become the shitting president.
An Br'er Putin, he jus' laugh and laugh”
