So, NOW It's Time For Healing?

"The White House responded to House Democrats’ plans to file articles of impeachment on Monday against President Trump, calling the decision “politically motivated” and warned it would “further divide our great country.”

“As President Trump said yesterday, this is a time for healing and unity as one nation,” said White House spokesman Judd Deere. “A politically motivated impeachment against a president, who has done a great job, with 12 days remaining in his term, will only serve to further divide our great country.” [washingtonpost.com]

The hypocrisy is sickening, not to mention the raw sycophancy on Deere's part. Trump has done a great job, alright- at creating the very division, hatred and chaos that he and his spokesman now are against, now that it's going to work to his detriment instead of his benefit. About the only positive thing you can say for the last four years is that we did not get into any new wars, but not for lack of trying. America and the world were less safe even before the coronavirus pandemic hit, thanks to Trump's utter ignorance, arrogance, disdain for anyone with expertise, and shredding of norms, domestically and with our allies. He destabilized our relations with other democracies while propping up and encouraging fellow authoritarian dictators (because, let's be clear, that is the model of leadership to which Trump aspires).

Whatever legacy Trump might have had is now in tatters. He will go down in history as the man who tried to turn the world's leading democracy into a banana republic; the sitting president who tried to sponsor a coup on his own behalf. And failed.

Yes, Trump will go down in history as a loser, the one thing he hates being most of all. No wonder he's out of sorts.
