Another day, another felon for the House Democrats…
On Monday the House Judiciary Committee kicked off a silly mock impeachment tribunal that Democrat leadership hopes will placate the bloodthirsty base while stopping short of actually impeaching the legitimately elected POTUS.
Hatred for President Trump has built to a crescendo following the underwhelming release of the Mueller report but while the shady special counsel cleared the president in the Russian collusion hoax, Mueller’s team of legal assassins and their congressional allies laid the groundwork for an obstruction lynching despite the fact that there was no underlying crime.
Judiciary Committee Chairman Jerrold Nadler – a longtime enemy of Trump – is presiding over this carnival of perversion which the dutiful media is likening to Watergate even if a good portion of the Democrat base hadn’t even been born yet when Richard M. Nixon was driven from office.
And who best to further the narrative about the new Watergate than convicted felon and former Nixon White House counsel John Dean who tattled on his boss and played a key role in the Democrats running Nixon out of the White House all of those many moons ago.
Dean, who is now 80 years old, a CNN contributor and a partisan hack who has made a nice living off of trading on his Watergate fame was trotted out as Nadler’s star witness despite his checkered past and the truth that other than to serve as a rationale for reversing the 2016 election, has nothing to do with President Trump who was framed by the deep state and Mueller.
The reliance on Dean is the continuation of a pattern that recently saw the Democrats similarly roll out the red carpet for another convicted felon and liar in former Trump attorney Michael Cohen, a cheese-eating rat who is now cooling his heels in a country club prison.
While Nadler and Democrats continued to disgrace themselves with their obscene dog and pony show, Dean didn’t receive a happy welcome from committee Republicans led by Rep. Matt Gaetz who put the wood to the CNN commentator.
Matt Gaetz rips into convicted felon & CNN contributor John Dean, asks him how much money he's made selling books accusing Republican presidents of crimes
Dean says he doesn't know

The back and forth:
Mr. Dean, how many American presidents have you accused of being Richard Nixon?” Gaetz asked.
“I actually wrote a book about Mr. Bush and Mr. Cheney, with the title ‘Worse Than Watergate,'” Dean responded.
“Did you make money on that book?” Gaetz responded.
“It was a very successful book,” Dean responded.
“How much money did you make?” Gaetz pressed.
“I have no idea,” Dean said.
“More than a million bucks?” Gaetz asked.
“No,” Dean replied.
“More than half a million bucks?” Gaetz continued.
“I said I don’t have any idea,” Dean replied.
“How much money do you make from CNN?” Gaetz asked.
“Eh— I don’t really know exactly,” Dean responded.
Gaetz wasn’t the only Republican to take the old snitch to the woodshed either:
Rep. Doug Collins: "It was brought up when one of our candidates talked about Russia being a threat, & former president Obama said the 80s are asking for their foreign policy back. Well guess what, this committee is now hearing from the 70s, and they want their star witness back" pic.twitter.com/e28PxzY8Y0

President Trump has made it clear that the “loser” Dean has zero credibility:
President Trump: "John Dean's been a loser for many years… John's been a loser for a long time. We know that. I think he was disbarred. And he went to prison. Other than that he's doing a great job." https://t.co/7lf3oXPL88 pic.twitter.com/uAKBRcGU0U

Can’t believe they are bringing in John Dean, the disgraced Nixon White House Counsel who is a paid CNN contributor. No Collusion – No Obstruction! Democrats just want a do-over which they’ll never get!

The geriatric hippies who now hold high positions in the Democratic party may be getting their juices flowing with their attempted resurrection of Watergate as a fountain of youth but in the end, they are just drinking their own piss.
