Dem chairman: Trump the 'greatest threat' to US democracy 'since the Civil War'
House Judiciary Committee Chairman Jerrold Nadler (D-N.Y.) in an interview airing Sunday called President Trump the "greatest threat" to U.S. democracy since "the Civil War."
"I view this president and his conduct as the greatest threat to the democratic system and to the constitutional government since the Civil War,” Nadler said in an interview with radio host John Catsimatidis on AM 970 in New York. "Whether it’s threatening the newspapers or threatening the judiciary or calling people who criticize him treasonous.”
Nadler, one of the Democratic chairmen set to probe various aspects of the Trump administration, said the House will soon be holding hearings including into "abuses of power" and "obstruction of justice."
“Clearly ... there have been major abuses of power, major obstruction of justice, obvious violations of the Emoluments Clause of the Constitution," he said. "All of these have to be looked at." . . . https://thehill.com/homenews/sunday-talk-shows/431288-house-judiciary-chairman-trump-is-the-greatest-threat-to-thexs
I totally agree, and have been thinking - and believing - the same thing, and of posting it. Does ANYONE here believe otherwise? The 20th century saw two World Wars, the Great Depression, Vietnam, and so much more. But Trump and Fox News are existential threats to our nation. He will not go quietly into that good night.
