I'm like you and don't care much for Trump but I voted for him in 2016 because of the binary choice we had to make. It was literally a no brainer even though I knew he was a morally compromised blowhard who I didn't believe would govern as a conservative. I was wrong on that count as he has been the most consequential conservative President since Reagan. And I foolishly believed that Democrats would get over their temper tantrum about the 2016 results and just focus on trying to blunt his efforts. I completely underestimated that they hate him more than they love their country. And I likewise underestimated the overt opposition of the Federal bureacracy. I know they are mostly left leaning but I actually thought they would accept the wishes of the American people and bide their time waiting for another Democrat president. I think we are going to see with the IG report and Durham's investigation that there was indeed an attempted coup of a duly elected President and collusion with foreign agents to subvert the election.
I have watched this impeachment fiasco and like you, it has not only confirmed my vote for Trump in 2020 but I am going to actively work for his reelection for the first time in my life. Impeachment ought to be fair and the President should be allowed to mount a defense. This charade violates every norm of fairness and we know why its being done this way. When the American people understand fully the context for our interaction with Ukraine the support for impeachment will drop even more with independents and fair-minded Democrats. And Pencil Neck's abject lies, his involvement in the weaseleaker's false complaint, his lies that Republicans don't believe Russia meddled in 2016 and that Ukraine did not (as if these are mutually exclusive when in fact both happened) and so on are not helping their case and are enraging millions of people.
And yes, there is hypocrisy on all sides but I completely agree with you that the left is so over the top in that regard and with their double standards that they have lost their sanity. I firmly believe that the only way to restore a semblance of trust in government is if those that perpetrated the Russia collusion fraud, abused the FISA system to spy on the Trump campaign and enlisted foreign agents to entrap Trump supporters and create the false narrative that there was collusion are brought to justice. Until then, there is no rule of law and equal justice in this country and we are just another banana republic.
