    Establishment pols and media targeted Trump from day one

    Call me a skeptic, but the continuous attacks on President Trump − starting back when it was candidate Trump and continuing through today − have always appeared as not a principled action but a message from the career politicians and the ruling class elites to anyone outside their circle of approval. If you are not one of us, or approved by us, you need not apply.

    It must irk a career politician who was getting all their tickets punched and climbing the ladder to see someone come in at the top. The career politician, the Establishment, the ruling class is saying loud and clear, “It happened once, it won’t happen again. And if you try, we will destroy you, your family and your legacy."

    The self-righteous and pious people who attack the president have put their ego, career, and desires above that of the country and citizenry. The media has perpetuated this situation by surrendering investigative reporting and fact-based coverage to the capture of soundbites and face time for themselves. Without a doubt each subsequent president will have to deal with their own impeachment sometime within their term.

    Makes one wonder why any decent person would seek office.
