I have a few clarifying questions for Vindman...

1. In precisely what way did he defend the Constitution? Liberals throw two terms around as if they are sacred, but in practice trample all over the principles the words represent. One is Constitution, the other is democracy. https://twitter.com/TheAtlantic/status/1305502434186461184

And that leads to the second question, of course.

2. How has Trump shown a shared loathing with Putin for democratic norms?

Liberals preach about democratic values ad nauseam, yet they have betrayed the most basic of those values in America--the peaceful transition of power.

The Russian collusion story was and is a hoax, and everyone knows it. If you are naïve, you should at least know that there was no collusion, since Mueller officially concluded that. If you are paying attention, you know it was concocted as the basis and cover for a coup!

Vindman knows “Russian collusion” was an attempted coup, and so does the Atlantic. This new “constructive collusion” narrative is absurd and undemocratic. Vindman claims he is a “defender of the Constitution” on his bio (cringe) but he has bulldozed right through Art. II.

Vindman’s actions subverted the Constitution and America’s most cherished values. Trump is empowered, by virtue of his election to lead this nation as its chief executive, to set foreign policy. The American people chose Trump to use his best judgment. None of us chose Vindman.

The President is the "sole organ of the nation in its external relations," and Vindman's opinion that there are "guardrails" that define what is "acceptable" U.S. policy toward Russia is in direct contradiction to POTUS's Art. II power and accountability to the American public.

The revolt we have seen across the agencies against Trump's election and his administration has revealed a breathtaking arrogance. Entrenched, career bureaucrats have been running the country for decades and they think it is their right to do so. These people run around...

...declaring their loyalty to the Constitution and democratic values, when they have respect for neither. Their ideology lost in 2016, and they have been assaulting the will of the people and our constitutional system of self-government ever since.

So, to take back our country, we not only have to re-elect DJT, we have to root out the scores of bureaucrats who think their opinions trump the Constitution and who think that they know better than anyone else how this country should run...and that they have the right to run it.
