JOHN CHUCKMAN COMMENT: A WRITER SAYS “OBAMAGATE” WILL NOT RESULT IN ANY SIGNIFICANT OUTCOME – THE DARK STATE PROTECTS ITS OWN – AND I THINK SHE HAS IT JUST ABOUT RIGHT – I JUST WISH SHE WOULD AVOID USING THAT TIRED POLITICAL SALES-PITCH WORD “SWAMP”

COMMENT POSTED TO AN ARTICLE BY CAITLIN JOHNSTONE IN CONSORTIUM NEWS


"Why ‘Obamagate’ Will Never Lead to Anything of Significance"

"You will never see Obama or his administration officials brought down by ‘Obamagate’ for the same reason Trump wasn’t brought down by the Mueller investigation, the swamp protects its own"


I think the author has it just about right.

There is no more justice in America than there is democracy, and for sure there is none of that.

Power is all that counts. The rest is stage play.

Most Americans simply cannot admit that truth.

As for change? Only under the influence of cataclysmic events would it be possible, events we are not likely to see.

Just a note, I wish the author avoided that tired political sales-pitch word “swamp.”
