When Obama was elected, the Republican leader of the Senate, Mitch McConnell, declared it would be the Republican Party’s mission to see to it that he, Obama, was a one term president. There followed a massive, well-organized and financed campaign (elements of which continue to this day) to demean, degrade, and obstruct the Obama presidency. No opportunity was or is missed by any Republican politician to badmouth Obama, to blame him for any problem, no matter how remote or trivial, and to block any constructive effort lest Obama received credit. When the Democrats lost control of Congress in 2010 the government of the United States of America effectively shut down, making McConnell’s prophecy self-fulfilling. By 2016, the voting public was so disgusted with Washington, they voted for change, change in whatever form they could get. It came with Donald J. Trump, through the quirk of the Electoral College, despite an almost three million popular vote advantage for Hillary Clinton. Now, Trump’s pigeons are coming home to roost, and America is having a bad case of buyer’s remorse. Impeachment talk is in the air, and Trump’s very low approval ratings mean that he may not be able to count on popularity to shield him from this radical method of getting him out.
