Hayden: Impeaching Trump would be viewed as soft coup

Michael Hayden Warns: Impeachment Would Be Viewed as 'Soft Coup' | Breitbart

Yep and we will take the appropriate action to defend our country and president against it.
Was impeaching Clinton a soft coup? How about Nixon?
Nixon was never impeached.
Wonk wonk wonk.

Any other nits you wanna pick while avoiding the question?
Nope. Trump ain’t going anywhere but back to the White House after 2020 re-election.
 
You don’t understand what a coup is

Following the Constitution is not a coup
Holding elected officials accountable for their actions is part of a Democracy

Yes, However, despite the oft quoted statement that we are a nation of laws, not men, at the highest level of our Federal gov't, it seems as if the powerful men in this country get a pass.

Look at Nixon. Ford pardoned him even though there was no trial.

Remember Iran/Contra? Look at the list of presidential pardons below: The biggest fish, Secretary of Defense Caspar Weinberger, again was pardoned before he was tried.

Indictments[edit]
  • Caspar Weinberger, Secretary of Defense, was indicted on two counts of perjury and one count of obstruction of justice on June 16, 1992.[92] Weinberger received a pardon from George H. W. Bush on December 24, 1992, before he was tried.[93]
  • Robert C. McFarlane, National Security Adviser, convicted of withholding evidence, but after a plea bargain was given only two years of probation. Later pardoned by President George H. W. Bush.[94]
  • Elliott Abrams, Assistant Secretary of State, convicted of withholding evidence, but after a plea bargain was given only two years probation. Later pardoned by President George H. W. Bush.[95]
  • Alan D. Fiers, Chief of the CIA's Central American Task Force, convicted of withholding evidence and sentenced to one year probation. Later pardoned by President George H. W. Bush.
  • Clair George, Chief of Covert Ops-CIA, convicted on two charges of perjury, but pardoned by President George H. W. Bush before sentencing.[96]
  • Oliver North, member of the National Security Council convicted of accepting an illegal gratuity, obstruction of a congressional inquiry, and destruction of documents, but the ruling was overturned since he had been granted immunity.[97]
  • Fawn Hall, Oliver North's secretary, was given immunity from prosecution on charges of conspiracy and destroying documents in exchange for her testimony.[98]
  • Jonathan Scott Royster, Liaison to Oliver North, was given immunity from prosecution on charges of conspiracy and destroying documents in exchange for his testimony.[99]
  • National Security Advisor John Poindexter was convicted of five counts of conspiracy, obstruction of justice, perjury, defrauding the government, and the alteration and destruction of evidence. A panel of the D.C. Circuit overturned the convictions on November 15, 1991, by a vote of 2 to 1[100] and the Supreme Court refused to hear the case.[101]
  • Duane Clarridge. An ex-CIA senior official, he was indicted in November 1991 on seven counts of perjury and false statements relating to a November 1985 shipment to Iran. Pardoned before trial by President George H. W. Bush.[102][103]
  • Richard V. Secord. Former Air Force major general, who was involved in arms transfers to Iran and diversion of funds to Contras, he pleaded guilty in November 1989 to making false statements to Congress and was sentenced to two years of probation. As part of his plea bargain, Secord agreed to provide further truthful testimony in exchange for the dismissal of remaining criminal charges against him.[104][105]
  • Albert Hakim. A businessman, he pleaded guilty in November 1989 to supplementing the salary of North by buying a $13,800 fence for North with money from "the Enterprise," which was a set of foreign companies Hakim used in Iran-Contra. In addition, Swiss company Lake Resources Inc., used for storing money from arms sales to Iran to give to the Contras, plead guilty to stealing government property.[106] Hakim was given two years of probation and a $5,000 fine, while Lake Resources Inc. was ordered to dissolve.[104][107]
Iran–Contra affair - Wikipedia


Now, Trump has made a mockery of the presidential pardon, for example, by pardoning his early ardent supporter, former Sheriff Joe Arpaio, prior to sentencing and without any statement of contrition.

Other countries actually practice what we preach.

For example, South Korea sentenced ex-president Park Geun-hye's to over twenty years in prison for corruption and abuse of power..

The decision by the Seoul High Court means the former head of state, who was ousted after a sprawling corruption scandal triggered mass protests, faces 25 years in jail.

Now, given the sheer breadth and scope of Trump's lifelong mendacity, if and when it's revealed that Trump has engaged in a pattern of illegal activity through his organization and his foundation, Trump SHOULD by tried, convicted and sentenced to a long stretch in prison (along with both of his sons), but I doubt it will ever happen, regardless of what crimes are eventually discovered.

No, he wasn't. Have you ever stopped to ask yourself exactly why that was the case? The short and simple answer is that he resigned. But ask yourself WHY did Nixon resign. It was a twofold reason. First of all, he understood that it was unlikely that he would prevail. But more importantly, despite all of his faults, I don't believe he wanted to put our country through a long drawn out drama that would essentially tear this country apart.

You know what? I don't think Trump would have any qualms about doing exactly what Nixon would not do because Trump only cares about Trump.

Why would Trump resign when he’s doing so many great things for America?

....that b@st@rd!!

:p

if he is found to have conspired to defraud the united states & has committed treason, then it matters not any of the above... he's going to go away

& btw- he built on what obama left him. & wages are not going up, that tax cut you bent over for not only screwed you now... it's only permanent for them.... not you & bigcorp is just going about buying back all their stock.... any bonus' will be eaten up in high rising healthcare costs due to the instability caused by repealing the mandate. that methane filled bubble you dwell in is rotting away at your braincells...

tick tock.

You know Playtime, that is exactly the reason that I told people to wait a year to see what impact the tax cuts would have. I've got a hunch that it's gonna crash the economy even worse than what Jr.'s did.
/——/ waiting for the crash, waiting for Mueller evidence, waiting for the blue wave, libtards do a lot of waiting waiting waiting

deplorables play checkers whilst thinkers play chess. the end game is worth the wait if it means there will be no window left open for the rats to flee.

thinkers would rather wait for mueller & his team to finish the job with all the i's dotted & all the t's crossed before the investigation is concluded.

the first blue wave happens in november, so there is no choice but to wait. it's already beginning to swell however, given primary results so far.

just remember, a blue wave is bigger & will wash away any red tide. a red tide is poison & kills whatever is swimming in its muck.

'Thinkers' spend 2 years looking for evidence of someone they despise illegally working with our nations enemies after they have been harboring Chinese spies in their midst for 20 years, after knowing about and allowing Russia and China to spy on us for years, after their own candidate paid foreign spies and Russians for help to win a US election..

What's interesting is that you completely disregarded all the Obama holdovers and the evidence of their already proven crimes and conspiracies.

Mueller is like a torpedo that locked onto its target right out of the tube, disregarding all other evidence, all other crimes - Mission: Get Trump....
 
Investigate Russian Interference:

When do we know it began?
- 2014. Obama knew about it, did nothing about it, let it continue through 2016.

MUELLER: Not important....


Obama knew the Russians were attempting to hack senior US politicians, knew Hillary was operating an illegal unauthorized unencrypted unsecured (all illegal) server containing TS data, knew Hillary was a target - did not warn her, did not shut down the use of her private server, did nothing to deter the Russians, and she and Barry facilitated the national security-compromising espionage by 6 foreign entities that accessed her server and stole TS data that followed.

MUELLER: Not important....


Hillary colluded with and paid foreign spies and Russians for their help in trying to alter the 2016 election and win the WH...the DOJ, CIA, NIA, FBI, and Clinton campaign all knowingly pushed the false Russia-authored document Hillary paid the Russians for as legitimate intel to alter the election, illegally acquire warrants, deceive Congress into appointing Mueller, and to take down the President...

MUELLER: Not important....



In 2014 Mueller, Holder, Hillary, and Obama hid Russian crimes associated with the KHB Bank's efforts to acquire Uranium One until they made sure the sale went through and the uranium went to Russia

MUELLER: Not important....



Hillary took approximately $145 million from the Russians, specifically from the man who led the Russian effort to acquire Uranium One in 2014

MUELLER: Not important....



Bill Clinton took 1/2 a million dollars from the KGB Bank for a 1-hour speech and met with Vladimir Putin himself after failing to get a meeting with Russian Nuclear Agency reps

MUELLER: Not important....



Hillary Clinton's campaign manager's firm worked for the Russians, 1/3rd of his companies Board of Directors were prominent Russian businessmen with ties directly to the Kremlin and Putin himself...John Podesta received thousands of unreported shares of Russian stocks...he was Manafort's 'partner in crime' yet was granted Immunity....his brother 'Fat' Tony worked for both the KGB Bank AND THE Russian Intel Agency that supposedly hacked Hillary's server

MUELLER: Not important....




Fired FBI Strzok...
- Altered the final FBI report on Hillary's investigation, sparing her from indictment by doing so
- Broke FBI protocols, standard procedures by NOT putting Hillary under oath when he interviewed HER and failed to record the interview
- Protected Hillary aides Abedin and Mills from indictment for lying to the FBI yet indicted Flynn for lying to the FBI although under oath FBI Director Comey testified that his FBI agents said Flynn never lied during his interview
- Was informed in 2015 about Chinese spying on Hillary's illegal server and did nothing about it
- Worked with CIA Director Brennan and NIA Director Clapper on writing the ICR and final ICA sent to and used to deceive Congress - they were both based on the false Russian-authored Dossier and knowingly presented to Congress and the FISA court as legitimate Intel
- Sent anti-Trump text messages to his FBI colleague mistress revealing the Secret Society that had already met to plot overthrowing Trump, revealing the agency's hatred for Trump and plan to keep him from winning the Presidency or to take him down if he was elected, revealing now-fired Deputy Director McCabe's 'Insurance Policy' treason - the US IG recommended McCabe be indicted for crimes and Strzok be investigated, neither of which has been done

MUELLER: Not important.... In fact, Mueller, who is also connected to a Russian Oligarch some think was the original source of the Dossier, was so impressed with Strzok's work and attitude that he hired him to be part of his Special Counsel 'hit team'...until all of the above became public....


Mueller:
Comey's mentor and buddy, has ties to Russians connected to his case, has committed Obstruction of Justice by refusing to comply with a federal subpoena - Massive Conflicts of Interest, should never have been appointed

His team is a 'who's who' of big-time DNC / Hillary donors and supporters as well as Clinton Lawyers - Massive Conflicts of Interest

Rosenstein:
Wrote the argument for why Comey should be fired, advised the President to fire Comey, then helped appoint Mueller to investigate why the President exercised his legal authority by firing Comey afterwards - a witness in this case, should have recused himself but refuses to; has committed Obstruction of Justice by refusing to comply with a federal subpoena; close buddies with Mueller and Comey....again, massive conflicts of interest...and crime

Brennan:
Repeat perjury offended who betrayed his country by illegally spying on US citizens, reporters, the media, US Senators, and even USSC Justices; knowingly pushed the unverified Russian-authored report as legitimate intel, successfully deceiving Congress and getting Mueller appointed

Clapper:
Pushed the ICR authored by Strzok and based on the false dossier to a select few Intel reps / agencies to control the narrative and get the response back they wanted...once they got it he had Strzok author the ICR used to deceive Congress

.
.
.
.
and this isn't even all that the growing mountain of evidence against them has revealed so far....
