Such a complex development....
...and so huge that no one can wrap their mind around it. It is bigger than the country. It is bigger than the law. No one knows what should be done or how it should be handled.

Then the criminals effectively turn the crime into a political stand. Either you believe they are right or they are wrong. The army of Kool-aid drinkers stand behind them in full battle regalia and support. The television propagandists run polls to see what people believe. The poll numbers replaces the action that should be taken by all the citizens.

The crime so large that half the country supports it. It's too complex to comprehend. Why can't everyone just accept that this bunch of power mad politicians have gone beyond the law, under the guise of fighting WWIII, the war on terror. And the people sheepishly surrender all their freedoms out of ignorance, as much as fear.

Surrender, they whisper behind your back. You are a simple man. What can you do?

3. It won't be the first time

(T)he criminals effectively turn the crime into a political stand.

They circled the wagons in Watergate and Ollie North beat his chest with his perjury indictment.

6. This is very, very big.....
Nothing in our history matches this for the size of the crime. It's almost like when a corporation steals $50 billion from its stockholders, people look at it some type of failure but it is too big to be a "robbery"...

5. We just need to keep fighting. Look how far we have come since
the election theft! The dominoes are falling one by one. And even though the MSM has protected the squatter at 1600 Penn Ave, the polls show that less than 30 % think he is doing a good job. We need to keep doing what we are doing and never let up.
