The Fury of the Establishment

Hell may have no fury like a woman scorned, but scorning the Washington Establishment produces even greater anger.

The Establishment's full fury has been unleashed against Donald Trump and is not about to subside until its goal is reached: the removal of the president from office, either through impeachment or defeat in the 2020 election.

If there were more than the kitchen sink to throw at Trump, the Establishment would be throwing it. The latest is the hyping of private money paid to two women by Trump's disgraced lawyer, Michael Cohen. The women claim it was money to keep them quiet over alleged affairs with him.

Behavior that was tolerated, or overlooked, by previous presidents is now grounds for indictment and impeachment, says the Establishment. Members of Congress who claim Trump violated campaign finance laws by making personal payments to these women are mostly silent about a $17 million congressional fund out of which have come payments in unknown amounts to settle sexual harassment cases. Rep. John Conyers (D-Mich.) used "office money" (translation, taxpayer dollars) to settle a sexual harassment case against him. He was eventually forced to resign.

No one cared about Bill Clinton - doubt the will care about Trump paying trash money to go away. Also yourtaxpayers money is used for congressman to pay off accusers so the difference is?
