Anatomy of (The) Witch Hunt

"President Trump, ramping up his assertions of extraordinary powers, declared in a tweet that he had "the absolute right" to pardon himself for any crime. The claim was the latest in an aggressive series of moves, as Mr Trump and his legal advisoers, have argued that his authority places him above the reach of obstruction statutes."
-New York Times
Whom among Trump voters expected their votes meant elevating their guy above the law? Where are all the Right Wingers apoplectic about their claims Obama was setting himself up to be king?
Where are all the righteous Republicans demanding return to decency after sex in the Oval Office and a history of rampant womanizing before assuming office? Where are the birthers grasping at straws to legitimize not having a real reason to hate that guy, when their guy, right now, is surrounded by conspirators to defraud the government and conspirators of outright treason? Their guy's spokesman is talking in terms of "relative truth" and evolving reality endangering his exposure to examination? And, then, they claim liberals and "independents" apply double standards simply for pointing out the demonstrable and blatantly obvious?
It's blatantly obvious the President of the United States has in the past laundered vast amounts of money through his real estate holdings and has accepted huge amounts of cash to enable further real estate development through Russian Oligarchs' billions. This president is subject to coercion and blackmail over his illegal activities on an international scale. It's obvious this president has offered influence for a fee paid to his previous agent who is currently under investigation with an array of imminent indictments right around the corner.
*Money laundering
*Graft,bribery, pay-to-play influence peddling, through Essential Consutltants, LLC and the Presidential Inauguration Fund
*Emoluments through his Trump International Hotel in Washington, DC and Mar-a-Lago in Florida.
*Obstruction of justice per firing Comey, intimidating Rosenstein, pressuring, intimidating, firing McCabe,
*Abuse of power with pardons of Arpaio, Libby, D'Souza and its implied invulnerability over the law.
And that's just in the past sixteen months. Trump has never been held fully accountable for his fraud, deceptions and discrimination over his entire life.
Seventy-five charges among twenty-two individuals, five guilty pleas and one sentence to date. That's a lot of witches and nobody but Mueller knows how many more are to come. The noose is tightening, and how the President declares himself above the law.
What a sick, twisted, foolish, silly little man.
