What exactly was it that caused Trump to deserve removal, other than having an R after his name on C-Span? I realize that’s enough for gullible uniparty fans like you, but I’m looking for a little critical thought for once. Tall order on Reddit, I know.

The 30-year-old whistleblower told *The Guardian*’s Glenn Greenwald that the NSA’s data collection created the possibility of a “turnkey tyranny,” whereby a malevolent future government could create an authoritarian state with the flick of a switch. The truth is actually worse. Within the context of current economic, political and environmental trends, the existence of a surveillance state doesn’t just create a theoretical possibility of tyranny with the turn of a key—it virtually **guarantees** it.

If you've ever watched the Comey Rule on Netflix, it is a short and left leaning mini series about what happened early in Trump's administration. Anyway, after firing Comey, Trump went on TV and dared anybody to come after his administration. Ryan should have impeached him on the spot. That is the kind of person that Paglen is warning you about in the clip above. The NSA gives potus too much power and if you don't see that I think any critical thinker would be as scared as hell of a person like Trump or Harris having that kind of power. Trump isn't going to stop Israel and neither is Harris. If you are confused about that then watch this video[7]. If was actually serious about Making America Great Again, the first thing he would have done when he was potus was disconnect us from Israel's grip. As you can see if you watched the story of how the veterans of the USS liberty and their surviving families still commemorate that horrible incident, even Johnson was, to a certain extent, under that grip. He couldn't, or was unwilling to protect us from Israel. Neither is Trump apparently.

Any politician who proposes impeachment on day 1 of a term is anti-democratic and grandstanding. The OP also belongs in that group.
