  25. I'm Australian but went to college in America. I did aerospace engineering but a pack of my frat brothers were pre-law and several are now practicing lawyers. They used to love bouncing my head off the walls with hypothetical discussions on the constitution explaining how great the constitution was. Years later I believe that without doubt the US Constitution is one of the greatest achievements in human history, but this is its greatest challenge. One of the things my frat brothers never backed down on was the "that can't happen here" stance. They explained to me time and time again how the system of checks and balances could never be breached. I think a couple of them dragged me into those discussions because I would challenge them with questions no American would think to ask. But neither they or the founding fathers ever considered someone like Mitch McConnell doing what he has done. Blame my frat brothers all you like, but they explained to me just how important the Senate is as the check and balance to the President and Congress. McConnell subverted the Impeachment with no witnesses, no evidence and even allowed senators to not even be there to hear what was presented. I knew that would come back to haunt America. What McConnell did was subvert the one thing that could keep a rogue POTUS under control. As a result Trump was never kept in check. His children (Jared & Ivanka) were not kept in check. His minions (Giuliani, Ellis, Powell,....et.c) were not kept in check. Mike Flynn advocated for martial law only a few days ago. I don't think Biden or his team yet realise just what they face or what it will take to fix. Absolutely Trump has to be removed, but so does McConnell and the others who enabled this to happen. Its important they are all impeached as that will prevent any future POTUS pardoning them. Start with Trump, but don't stop there. Get all of them for what they have done to a great country and America is a great country despite some of what its done. Just know that America has a lot of friends and we do want to see you get past this.

  41.  @Attaxalotl  It simpler than that to throw back at them with this basic question. When did BLM, ANTIFA, the Democrats, the 1960s counter culture hippies, the tree hugging Kumbaya singing Greenies, Occupy Wall St., Lafayette Square or ANY OTHER protesters STORM the capitol, TEAR down the flag and REPLACE it with their own? I'm Australian but went to college in America and I can't believe that ANY AMERICAN tore down ANY American let alone the flag over the capitol. These people scream, yell and rant about being patriots - well how is tearing down the flag being a patriot? These people scream, yell and rant abut upholding the constitution - well how do you do that while refusing to accept the results of an election that has been certified by all 50 states, certified by the House, Senate and VPOTUS and backed up by state, federal and Supreme courts? Here's a quote given to me a while back by Henry Wallace from 1944 (2 years before Trump was born). It was written when Mussolini, Hitler and Stalin were in power. Just look at what it says about "method." Best to you - Take Care & Stay Safe. Henry A. Wallace, Vice President of the United States in the New York Times, April 9, 1944 “The really dangerous American fascist... is the man who wants to do in the United States in an American way what Hitler did in Germany in a Prussian way. The American fascist would prefer not to use violence. His method is to poison the channels of public information. With a fascist the problem is never how best to present the truth to the public but how best to use the news to deceive the public into giving the fascist and his group more money or more power... They claim to be super-patriots, but they would destroy every liberty guaranteed by the Constitution. They demand free enterprise, but are the spokesmen for monopoly and vested interest. Their final objective, toward which all their deceit is directed, is to capture political power so that, using the power of the state and the power of the market simultaneously, they may keep the common man in eternal subjection.”
