This is from The Daily Beast, so it should carry more weight than normal.

Liberal Impeachment Fantasies Have to Stop

Trump and his supporters won’t go gently into that good night.

Erin Gloria Ryan

06.29.17 1:00 AM ET

In times of unexpected strife, the aggrieved seek comfort anywhere they can find it, like trees trying to grow on the side of cliffs. Since Donald Trump’s election, dejected liberals have sought catharsis in tears, in marches, in late-night comedy, in essays about reasons that marches occurred. But none of those things have changed the fact that Trump is the president.

We’re now entering a new phase in liberal self-soothing: the calming Nixon-expert-with-a-crystal-ball phase.

This week’s New York magazine cover story, written by Frank Rich, lays hard into the Trump-Nixon tie, offering history as balm. “The resistance” needn’t worry just yet. Just wait, Rich urges. “Watergate auto-da-fé wasn’t built in a day.”

Rich isn’t alone in his Trump-Watergate fantasy. It’s hard to avoid drawing some parallels between Tricky Dick and Teflon Don.

Like Trump, Richard Nixon’s Congress was stocked with allies. Nixon taped people (Trump, thus far, only lies about it). Nixon had Deep Throat, an aggrieved FBI guy, and Trump has James Comey, an aggrieved FBI guy. Nixon, like Trump, hated the press and loved his daughters and had a strange relationship with his wife.

At least they have the guts to say what we've all known, to the Left--including the primitives.

Looks like TDB didn't allow comments on that article. AKA suppression of conservatives' amusement. Progs would roast Erin Gloria Ryan as a covert Trump lover!

Perfectly legal for the president to make recordings. What got Nixon in trouble was erasing the tapes.

In all likelihood, every President since Nixon has recorded at least some of their doings. I wonder if WJC remembered to hit the "Pause" button during Monica's visits. :bolt:

The difference between Watergate and what ever it is that the liberals have dreamed up this week is that the foundation of Watergate was actual, provable illegal activity. There is nothing like that with Trump so the comparison is a fail and appeals only to those who allow wishful thinking to dominate their life instead of reality.

There is a better possibility of the libs contacting the Romulians and having President Trump beamed up to the mother ship than them getting him impeached.

They need to get over their losses , break out their bongs for the next 16 years and chill out. all the anger, bile and hate will not change a thing.

Right.

We all know this, and really, deep down, the primitives know this too.

But it's just s-o-o-o-o-o much easier to hate.

This, plus everything that's even marginally controversial is compared to Watergate; Plamegate, Gamergate, Deflategate...
