Sounds Like


Increasing testimony and evidence point to the fact that the President obstructed justice.  The House begins an inquiry.  Sounds like America to me.

Increasing testimony and evidence point to the fact that the President used taxpayer dollars approved by Congress to leverage a foreign nation into conducting an investigation into the son of a Democratic opponent.  Sounds like a dictatorship to me.

After months of testimony presented mostly live, the House votes to impeach the President on 2 counts with reams of testimony transcripts and piles of evidence.  Sounds like America to me.

The President orders people not to testify, not to honor House subpoenas, and refuses to release documents.  Sounds like a dictatorship to me.

The President calls it a hoax.  Sounds like a dictatorship to me.

The Senate Majority Leader stalls the Senate trial until he gets the rules he wants.  Sounds like a dictatorship to me.

The Senate Majority Leader announces he is working with the President to organize the Senate trial.  Sounds like a dictatorship to me.

The President dismisses all the testimony and all the evidence by saying he did nothing wrong and besides, look at the unemployment rate.  Sounds like a dictatorship to me.

When the Senate trial begins the Senate decides to hear no testimony or review evidence.  Sounds like a dictatorship to me.

The Senate votes to acquit the President after no witnesses, no testimony, and no presentation of evidence. Sounds like a dictatorship to me.

The President celebrates his victory and claims he has been exonerated by a trial with no witnesses, no evidence, and no testimony.  Sounds like a dictatorship to me.

The President begins to fire everyone who was subpoenaed and testified under oath.  Sounds like a dictatorship to me.

The President is determined to find evidence that the son of a Democratic candidate for office had in fact done the very things his daughter and son are currently doing from positions in the White House.  Sounds like a dictatorship to me.

The President awards America’s highest honor to a man with no education, no experience in government, no resume except being a talk show host and the source of more divineness, insults, polarizing vitriol and conspiracy theories than anyone else on the air.  But he thinks like the President.  Sounds like a dictatorship to me.

Supporters of the President go after anyone who voted to remove him from office or participated in the testimony or evidence gathering.  Sounds like a dictatorship to me.

Three branches of government.  Checks and balances.  Liberty and Justice for all.  No man is above the law.  Freedom of speech.  Only in America, not in a dictatorship.

Sounds like America is now a dictatorship to me.

  1. Abject sadness at the state of our country—hard to call it a union at this point.
