Acquittal

President Trump has been acquitted related the impeachment trial. It was expected to go that way because of the scary obedience of the Senate Republicans (aside from Sen. Mitt Romney) to Trump's every wish and desire.

Though I feel sad and angry, it does open up much latitude for Democrats when there is a Democratic president. Simply put, Republicans (those in government and those in the populace) are now verboten to say anything negative about the said Democratic president. For instance, the following is off the table:

--President __________ is wrong for treating that country in that manner.
--The president should not have the power to do that!
--Someone needs to stop the president for all the awful things he is doing!

Republicans will get their comeuppance. Though, our democracy might be collateral damage.
