The left's search for a crime to destroy Trump

 Elliot Resnik:

...

Did Trump commit a crime? I doubt it. Democrats have spent six years and tens of millions of dollars investigating virtually every step he’s taken in his life. So far, they’ve come up with nothing. Which means that although Trump seems impetuous, he evidently hires excellent lawyers who ensure he always remains within the bounds of the law.

But at the end of the day, the question of Trump’s innocence is irrelevant. Because what we’re witnessing is not a legal investigation but a political crusade – aided by the Justice Department – to crush a man it can’t stand. And if we allow the left to win this battle, we will have allowed it to cross a line from which there may be no turning back.

For this isn’t about Trump. It’s about the left doing whatever it takes to retain political and ideological control of this country. As one political commentator has pointed out, Trump represents everything the left hates, everything they’ve spent 50 years trying to eradicate. He exudes male energy. He loves America. For heaven’s sake, he even supports torturing terrorists!

And then there’s that story he gleefully relates about General “Blackjack” Pershing allegedly ordering that Muslim terrorists be shot with bullets dipped in pig’s blood. Perhaps, worst of all, Trump doesn’t cry, apologize, or share his feelings. Essentially, Trump in many respects is a throwback to 1950s America. And there’s nothing the left hates more than the values of 1950s America.

The left will tolerate a Republican who seeks to lower tax rates by a percentage point or two. It will even tolerate a Republican who claims to oppose abortion or illegal immigration. As long as he doesn’t seriously interfere with the “progressive march of history.” As long as he piously apologizes for the sins of our past.

The left's reaction to Trump is telling about their own radical tendencies.  They are willing to do and say anything to destroy those who disagree with them.
