Boberama A Distinction with a Difference

Bob2 or Boberama or whatever you call yourself these days, you seem to miss the whole point of the Trump campaign and how it is different from everyone else.
Trump is about attacking the institutions of our democracy:
-attacks the legitimacy of the election
-attacks the citizenship of his predecessor
-attacks the legality of his opponent's run for president
-promises to put his opponent in jail
-attacks the judge presiding in a lawsuit against his company
-possibly has contacts with foreign governments, or their proxies, aiding his campaign with timing of wikileaks
-and finally attacks our press, viciously, and continuously, attempting to undermine one of the foundations of our open democracy, a free press.
--promises to restrict press freedoms if elected
--threatens to investigate his opponents donors
This puts Bush and Obama in the same bucket, the bucket of politicians who respect and protect our institutions. Trump is an avowed opponent of our democratic system of government and he has announced it far and wide over and over. And he will feel entitled to rule according to his stated contempt for our democracy. And he will feel emboldened by the anti-democratic actions of our FBI director who pitched the election to him.
So you are just missing the point. It's not about Republican or Democrat. It's about democracy. That's what Trump is fighting to undermine.
The Republicans should be complaining about the same thing because much of Trump's appeal to the voters had to do with his manipulation of the press and the appeal to voters of his bombastic and arrogant personality. This is what allowed him to vanquish legitimate patriots in the Republican primary who, regardless of their politics, all had basic respect for the foundations of our democracy and posed no threat to our very system of government.
The Comey Coup was precipitated by the propaganda Trump was spewing in October after his sexual assault history become public. This was the first major step of likely many which Trump will make possible through his dangerous and wild and reckless and mendacious manipulation of the media and public opinion.
