Trump Treason?
Here we go again. Trump is being impeached over his dealings with Ukraine, even as he accuses Democrats like Adam Schiff of treason. This sordid spectacle will doubtless dominate the news for the next few months, and probably longer. Impeachment, as they say, is a political process, and thus partisanship will reign supreme, fueled by Trump's temper tantrums and his rhetoric of coups and civil wars.
Trump is, simply put, constitutionally unsuited to be president. Not just because he doesn't know the U.S. Constitution: he doesn't have a public service bone in his body. It makes perfect sense to him to use his position and its powers for his own personal gain. He's been doing that his entire life, so why stop now? Trump also sees himself as a victim -- the biggest victim in all of history. He reminds me of the comedian Rodney Dangerfield, whose shtick was about how he got no respect.
It's all so sad and depressing, and it's only just begun.
