RISING: Politico Reporter Warns Over Impeachment, Says Trump’s Base ‘Getting Stronger’
By: Jonathan Davis
That’s right. It’s not the establishment GOP that we like, listen to, or are loyal to, it’s President Donald Trump. The GOP as a party can no longer achieve anything with out its base and that base is loyal to Trump and now with democrat in charge of everything but the courts at the federal level it’s more so than ever before. The harder the democrat party moves and the more it tries to cram down our throats the more we turn to Trump to be the face of our opposition and the more we use his name when acting in our state or local area in defiance of the bicoastal ruling elites sleepy Joe is fronting for. Trump 2024. We will need to MAGA again then more than ever.
Just as they did in 2008, Democrats look set to overplay their political hand now that they’ve got control of all the levers of legislative and executive power.
When their party controlled Congress and the White House as Barack Obama began his first term, Democrats rammed through a far-left agenda that included an unpopular government-centric ‘healthcare reform’ bill that the president and his lapdogs repeatedly lied about.
The result? The Tea Party movement, which led Republicans to take over the House in 2010 and the Senate four years later.
Now, after keeping the House in November (albeit with a much smaller majority), winning half the Senate, and managing to manipulate their way into the White House, Democrats are in such a rush to impose their will on the country they are again overplaying their hand.
As Joe Biden signs one executive fiat after another, throwing thousands of Americans out of work and setting energy prices in motion to rise dramatically, congressional Democrats are proceeding with an unprecedented (and some say unconstitutional) impeachment against former President Donald Trump.
And at least one observer thinks all these actions will do is strengthen Trump and, by default, the GOP he still controls.
Former President Donald Trump has actually gained — not lost — political clout since leaving office, a political observer asserted Friday.
Politico reporter Tara Palmeri’s observation runs contrary to the assumptions of many in the Washington D.C. establishment and the mainstream media.
In fact, there is now a “crusade” being waged on behalf of the former president in places like Wyoming, where Trump is “way more popular” than the state’s high-ranking congressional Republican, U.S. Rep. Liz Cheney, Palmeri said.
She drew the conclusion after speaking with locals in the Cowboy State about Cheney’s vote to impeach Trump while covering an anti-Cheney rally led by Rep. Matt Gaetz, R-Fla.
“People don’t want to hear anything against Trump,” Palmeri told MSNBC. “Actually, the more he stays out of the media, the more that he becomes this martyr, this looming figure over the GOP.”
“I actually went out of my way to try to find someone who would defend her and I really could not,” Palmeri told MSNBC. “She didn’t have that much name recognition, considering she’s a Cheney. … I mean, I said her name at a hardware store, and someone shouted a threat.”
She also noted that several people in the state don’t believe much of anything coming out of Washington, D.C. or the Democrat-friendly media.
“I hate that they’re so distrustful,” Palmeri said. “It feels like another world but that’s what’s on the ground and I don’t think that we can ignore it and I’m really happy that I went out there and saw it because I think that there’s a huge disconnect between Washington and the rest of the country.”
She also added this nugget of truth: “A lot of people said they aren’t really Republicans, that, like, they’re for Trump. That’s it … I think the base is getting stronger, truly. I think an impeachment would make him even more powerful — a conviction is what I mean.”
She’s not wrong.

fuck Trump
Meh, no they aren't. Trump's approval ratings have shown exactly one thing, people are already decided about him. You love him or you hate him. His base isn't going to get any bigger. They may get louder and dumber, but his base is the size it is and that isn't going to change.
The impeachment trial really won't matter much considering the GOP has already said they do not believe in holding people accountable for their actions, so get it over with and after that, Democrats, start legislating. Start passing your agenda, end of story. If that means you have to abolish the filibuster, then so be it, but pass legislation and then defend it in the midterms. Run on the platform of "we did what we said we are going to do, get out and vote so we can keep going." Don't worry about Trump or his base, they aren't changing and that also means they aren't getting any bigger.
