Paid advertising to coerce court decisions?

 HOW ABOUT DECISIONS BASED ON CONSTITUTION

ARE THEY REALLY DEFENDING DEMOCRACY?


In recent weeks we have seen paid advertisements from a group called, "Defending democracy together" They are supposedly Republicans who want to disqualify Donald Trump for being a candidate for president. If you look at a list of members they are all former or present government employees, bureaucrats that possibly want to insure that the gravy train of present government power and corruption continues.

As for preserving democracy, they argue that the separation of powers that provides immunity from prosecution for Presidents, should be eliminated. This and Presidential privilege concerning decisions are very important to actually preserving a democratic process. They are willing to scrape these protections in a blatant attempt to get Trump, a precedent that will have lasting ramifications for as long as the country exists. Such maneuvering will most likely shorten the existence of this form of government and lead to continual attempts to prosecute future presidents. 

These attempts started during the Nixon presidency, then continued with a quid pro quo on Bill Clinton. They have again escalated with Donald Trump, with all kinds of illegal attempts to have him removed from office, disqualified and embarrassed.  These attempts have routinely been orchestrated by former or serving government employees who have recorded and leaked presidential conversations and attempted to make illegal a whole list of actions in an attempt to discredit Trump.

None of them, who in effect have engaged in Treason, have been prosecuted for their actions. It has resulted in half the country no longer believing in the credibility of most of the government and it is continuing to become worse, a very real and serious attack on democracy. 

The reality is, these groups and other government employees are the most serious threat to democracy in the history of this country.
