    No. If we were an banana republic, there would be no impeachment process (offical od unoffical) there would be no hope of a new President being elected. There would be no vocal opposition. 

    We are still a free republic and the only one I want to live in.

    That is because Democracy is now making a HUGE comeback.  Move over Don Don.

    Democracy
    It's coming through a hole in the air
    From those nights in Tiananmen Square
    It's coming from the feel
    That this ain't exactly real
    Or it's real, but it ain't exactly there
    From the wars against disorder
    From the sirens night and day
    From the fires of the homeless
    From the ashes of the gay
    Democracy is coming to the USA
    It's coming through a crack in the wall
    On a visionary flood of alcohol
    From the staggering account
    Of the Sermon on the Mount
    Which I don't pretend to understand at all
    It's coming from the silence
    On the dock of the bay,
    From the brave, the bold, the battered
    Heart of Chevrolet
    Democracy is coming to the USA

    We are a Republic...always have been. We do not want a Democracy. That is mob rule. Regardless of law.

    Yeah?  You have lived in a mob your whole life and I am sure you are doing just fine.

    MOB?  You have a pig in office that just decided to go off and kill our allies.  That mob is going to lynch your boy.

    This is fake news. There is a monster in the White House.  Not an orangutan.  The orange color made it hard to discern.  But orangutans are very intelligent animals and even they would know better than to put Mick Mulvaney in charge of anything, even cleaning a cage of immigrant children.

    C'mon ... you could find a better meme, if you're going to picture Trump as an orangutan.

    How about as Dr Zaius, from Planet of the Apes?

    Ya but Dr. Zaius was kind to humans - Trump puts human children in cages and leaves allies to be slaughtered. Cheers!

    Trump withdraws "orangutan" lawsuit against comic Bill Maher

     

    2 MIN READ

     
     

    NEW YORK (Reuters) - Donald Trump is withdrawing his lawsuit against television host and comedian Bill Maher seeking $5 million that Maher said he would give to charity, in a seemingly facetious offer, if Trump could prove he was not the son of an orangutan.

    The lawsuit stems from comments Maher made during an appearance on NBC’s “The Tonight Show” in January in which he said an orangutan’s fur was the only thing in nature that matches the shade of Trump’s trademark hair.

    Records in Los Angeles Superior Court show the real estate mogul requested the lawsuit be dismissed without prejudice on Friday, eight weeks after he filed it. His spokesman, Michael Cohen, said Trump plans to file an amended lawsuit sometime in the future.

    Cohen declined to offer further details, including a reason for the withdrawal.

    Ya Trump probably has hundreds of stupid law suites clogging up the justice system. Personally I see Trump as a Sea Monkey not a orangutan - orangutans are species  of the great ape - Sea Monkeys are really just brine shrimp. Cheers!
