We knew a large part of the Democrats are out and out communists. They do nothing to hide it. Their high level elected officials and presidential candidates proudly proclaim their loyalty to socialism. Their Antifa pawns, or sponsors- take your pick, display the red hammer and sickle with careless abandon.

Now, their press arm is calling for Soviet communist style show trials, as Stalin used in the 1930s, to prosecute Republicans for daring to disagree with them. That is if they win. If they lose, expect a more violent response.

In typical Bolshevik idiom, the New York Times declared recently that “Donald Trump’s reelection campaign poses the greatest threat to American democracy since World War II.” Thus, they want show trials. By the way, notice how they overlook the Cold War as a threat to democracy. Why? Because they were on the other side.

The Washington Post’s Andrey Vyshinsky-like  Opinion section devoted itself to whether Trump and his administration  should be prosecuted or merely investigated. Then two MSNBC ex-prosecutors wrote a Post op-ed headlined “A Rap Sheet for a Former President.”

In the Post’s piece, Sam Tanenhaus, a former New York Times Book Review editor and radical leftist, says “it is imperative to confront the facts of the Trump era. We elected as president a homegrown insurrectionist. He rose to the highest position in our democracy and damaged it…It’s unimaginable, ludicrous even, to contemplate doing nothing about Donald Trump.” Really Sam? Gee, country seems intact from sea to shining sea. And if he is such a threat to democracy, why aren’t people like you in DHS camps? I mean, dictatorship should be made of firmer stuff.

But Tanenhaus admits, “the price of such an inquiry would be considerable. It could rebound against Democrats and undermine public confidence in their fairness and sense of proportion.” But, let’s do it anyway, huh Sam? Who cares if it hurts the country, right?

Jill Lepore of MSNBC writes, “The Trump administration is not Nazi Germany, nor is it a nation defeated in war. Its wrongdoing — a litany that includes corruption, fomenting insurrection, separating parents and children at the border, and violently suppressing political dissent — should be investigated by journalists, chronicled by historians and, in some instances, tried in ordinary courts.” Insurrection again? But all the insurrectionists are hard leftists like you Jill. Thus, he’s blamed for your sedition? Suppressing political dissent? Again, then how are you not working in the laundry room at Sing Sing? By the way, didn’t the Obama-Biden administration start separating parents from children at the border? Gonna prosecute them? I thought not.

New York magazine ran a Jonathan Chait piece with the subhead: “Lock Him Up? For the Republic to survive Trump’s presidency, he must be tried for his crimes. Even if that sparks a constitutional crisis of its own.” See, they don’t care about dragging the nation through another crisis. All they want is the power to crush their enemies. For all that is good, democratic, and honorable left in America, they must be stopped.
