Five times in the last ninety years, elements of the U.S. power structure have tried to oust a sitting president without an election.
The efforts were aimed at Franklin Roosevelt, John Kennedy, Richard Nixon, Bill Clinton, and Donald Trump.
Two attempts succeeded and three failed... so far.
If the Democrats had understood Watergate, they would have noticed a key condition was missing: aggravated conflict between the president and the military-industrial complex. That is why the Democrats failed.
Of course, as 2020 election day approaches, President Trump has managed to create a triple crisis — his bungled COVID-19 response, the resulting economic paralysis, and his inciting a coast-to-coast police rampage — which may doom him with no effort by the Democrats. No one knows at this point.
"...to help mitigate COVID-19", MY ASTROLABE!!
What damned kind of fool does the US government and military take Putin to be, by releasing this kind of malarkey?!?
One can describe Russia's Putin in many ways; "fool" is absolutely, irrevocably, and completely NOT a part of that description.
