Maybe They Are Hypocrites; Maybe They Just Do Not Care

Like Pavlov’s dogs, the Democrats jump at the sound of any bell that sounds useful in their never-ending quest to remove President Trump from office.  Do they know what hypocrites they are or do they just not care, or is it both?

The latest sound that caused them to jump for joy was the unproven claim that the President had offered something to the Ukraine in return for their investigation of Biden’s son.  They jumped at this, seeing no need to wait for facts.  But now, the documents emerge.  The truth – something that the Democrats are not well acquainted with lately.

HERE  is the full transcript of the President’s conversation with Ukraine.  Pretty innocuous – he asks that they investigate a variety of things, including the DNC server hack as well as Biden’s son.  There is no discussion of, let alone any quid pro quo of foreign aid in return for such an investigation.    But, without waiting for facts and based on their slavering hope that there was such an offer, the Democrats have once again gone off half-cocked (and yes, this gun analogy is quite appropriate for these anti-gun folks). 

But, beyond the innocuous, and certainly not impeachable transcript, is a letter written by the Democrats to the Ukraine in May of 2018.  HERE  In this letter Democrats Menendez, Durbin and Leahy specifically ask the Ukraine to investigate Trump and his administration as they continued to seek some sort of evidence of the now debunked Russian collusion.

So, it is OK for the Democrats to ask a foreign power to investigate a president that they hate and will do anything to remove from office, but it is not OK for a president to have a discussion with a foreign leader in which he asks them to investigate a variety of things with which that power is connected and which in one way or another involve our country.  Hypocritical?  YES.  Ridiculous?  YES

This is just another example that the Democrats are totally and completely consumed by their hatred of Donald Trump.  I have previously pointed to things such as prison reform, etc., which the Democrats always favored, which Trump actually got done, and which, the Democrats now no longer support, solely because it was Trump who accomplished it.  Many of the actions of former President Obama regarding illegal immigrants which the Democrats either ignored or supported are now condemned when Trump enforces the same policies and laws. 

Not only are the Democrats focused exclusively on their hatred of Donald Trump; they are happy to let that hatred hurt the American people. They will not work across the aisle, not even to further policies for which they have in the past voiced support.  They will use their time and the taxpayers’ money to hold hearing after hearing in their never-ending desire to satiate their hatred of Donald Trump.

The Democrats do not like President Trump because, though not one of them, he bested them.  They hate him for this and that hatred has taken over.  So, maybe they do not realize what hypocrites they are.  Maybe they do not realize that their hatred is hurting if not destroying America and its people.  Or, maybe, they just do not care.
