Just because something is scary doesn't mean you don't see it through. Learn about "regime cleavage"... not the prefered kind of cleavage.

Another BS article by think tank losers. We have elections every four years for president. Unless there is a high crime or misdemeanor worthy of removal (which there is not in this case) they goal should be to win the next election.
This president has been under investigation since prior to taking office. We had 2.5 years of Mueller which was fully cooperated with and Mueller found nothing. Zero indictments, no collusion or conspiracy so the democrats rolled out their next "investigation". From Russian Collusion to a Ukrainian quid pro quo.
From the article:
An emerging regime cleavage in the United States brought on by President Donald Trump and his defenders could signal that the American public might lose faith in the electoral process altogether or incentivize elected politicians to mount even more direct attacks on the independence of the judiciary and the separation of powers. Regime cleavages emerge only in governing systems in crisis, and our democracy is indeed in crisis.

What the writer seems to forget is that the 3 branches are separate and equal. Right now, the legislative branch with Mueller and now this charade of a impeachment investigation clearly sees itself as he "more equal" branch. They are unwilling to allow the president to govern an focus on winning he next election. Why, you might ask? Look at their candidates. They have to try to damage Trump to have a chance to win. The president has no obligation to roll over to the legislative branch at all.
What is creating the crisis is the non stop investigations launched at the White House. by the democrats. That is the crisis. There has scarcely been a day this white house has not been under investigation. Win the next election.

MSgt Steve Sweeney - Steve, your reading comprehension and intellectual honesty are ebbing at another low. Here is what I said above "This president has been under investigation since prior to taking office. We had 2.5 years of Mueller which was fully cooperated with and Mueller found nothing. Zero indictments, no collusion or conspiracy so the democrats rolled out their next "investigation". From Russian Collusion to a Ukrainian quid pro quo."
Mueller returned no indictments/charges against the president, period (or anyone in his administration or campaign) for Russian collusion/conspiracy or obstruction. I was not talking about indictments in general. He found a number of unrelated items to charge people for but not related to Russian Collusion/Conspiracy or obstruction (the purpose of his investigation). The only people that were indicted for election related items were Russians.
The simple fact is that had they found a crime they would have charged. They found no crime(s) so there were no charges and no need to bump into the OLC position on indicting a sitting president. His testimony is clear and you choose to ignore it because you are an idiot that does not understand simple English.

Edit the title- why won’t Trump roll over and comply.
Also, noticed the omission of Republic.

Here you go- it’s from Walter E. Williams so you can’t disagree with him or you will be labeled as such. https://federalistforum.com/democracy-or-a-republic/

LTC (Join to see) - With all due respect to the economics professor, I will first take under consideration the words of Noah Webster, St. George Tucker, and Thomas Jefferson. Williams's argument hinges upon an understanding of what "democracy" means, though he makes no distinction between simple democracy and representative democracy.
Either way, your argument is not put forward in good faith, but rather as a means to distract and deflect.
