He started off explaining how he, Stephen Miller and Jeff Sessions formed an unlikely band of brothers to create a new and different approach to politics.  Their goal was to take down the REPUBLICAN establishment and create something new in its place.  Yes, I&#8217;ve repeated what he said &#8211; the Republicans.  They targeted Eric Cantor in the 2014 mid terms and succeeded in ousting him from office &#8211; the second most powerful Republican in the House.  How&#8217;d they do it?  Breitbart and related social media.  Why&#8217;d they do it?  Because Cantor was allegedly &#8216;soft&#8217; on immigration.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Then they decided that they needed a candidate for president in order to carry out their nefarious plans &#8211; and who better than an <strong>imperfect<\/strong> (his word, not mine) but nonetheless malleable (my word, not his) candidate like Donald Trump.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So they do everything in their power &#8211; with the help of the Russians &#8211; to destroy Hillary and boost Trump.  We all know how that turned out.  But somewhere along the line, their Frankenstein monster creation turned on two of them &#8211; and you know which two.  Now there&#8217;s only the creepy Stephen Miller to whisper in Trump&#8217;s ear to toe the line on immigration &#8211; and likely a few other topics as well.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"alignright is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.planetsusan.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/Stephen-Miller-750x1024.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-8240\" width=\"319\" height=\"445\"\/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Now everybody &#8211; including those three amigos that created this mess &#8211; is finding out that those imperfections are causing chaos and mayhem in Washington with impeachment as the inevitable end.  Did they really think they could control him?  Apparently so &#8211; or maybe all this is okay with them, because destruction is the ultimate goal.  But what if they take the country down with them?  They&#8217;ll find someone else to blame.  That is evil incarnate.  My only consolation is karma &#8211; which is or will be visited on all of them for their actions.  Couldn&#8217;t happen to a more deserving bunch of losers. But out of the ashes of the old will arise a new &#8211; and hopefully better country.  At least I hope so.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Watched Frontline last night and it was supposed to just be about immigration and how Trump has used it as a weapon in maintaining power &amp; control over actions and events in his administration.
