Former GOP White House ethics chief: Trump borders on fascist
By Tommy Christopher - May 22, 2018
Richard Painter says Trump and Pence should be 'removed from office.'
Trumps latest abuse of power has so alarmed a former Republican White House ethics chief that he says Trump should be removed from office.
In an interview with CBS News, former Bush ethics lawyer and current candidate for U.S. Senate Richard Painter explained that Trump is a big reason why hes running as a Democrat.
Donald Trump and his abuse of power in office, his violation of the Constitution, his rhetoric, which really borders on fascism. Painter said. His rhetoric about the press, and his attacks on Muslims and immigrants. And this is unprecedented even in the most conservative circles of the Republican Party.
And yet the Republican Party insists that anyone running for national office the United States House or Senate be loyal to Donald Trump, and I wont be loyal to Donald Trump, he said. I believe that he and Mike Pence really are to be removed from office.
Painter later added that there is now far more evidence of abuse of power and obstruction of justice than we had in 1973 with respect to Watergate and Richard Nixon.
SNIP
Norm Eisen, chief ethics lawyer during the Obama administration, also warned of Trumps conflicts of interest early on, and has continued to slam Trump for inviting bribes and other corrupt practices.
But former Republican Painter has been among the strongest at holding Trump accountable, consistently calling for his removal. And unlike many in the media and elsewhere, Painter is also keeping his eye on Mike Pence, who is neck deep in all of Trumps problems.

Democrats gathered four floors below ground, deep in the Washington D.C. Marriott Marquis to hear from a litany of Democrats and one special guest whose name did not appear on any formal program.
Former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton took the stage to high octave cheers, addressing a female coalition at the DNC Womens Leadership Forum she founded as First Lady alongside Tipper Gore, 25 years ago.
The former secretary of state, U.S. senator, and first lady quickly got to the question she says shes hearing from Democrats across the country: What do the Democrats stand for?
Its a political query so many Democratic leaders have gone out of their way to address ahead of midterm elections, and in the wake of a presidential election cycle that left some on the left feeling disjointed and void of a unified message.
We stand for truth, for evidence and facts.
What an incredible thing!" Clinton exclaimed, in what may have been a lighthearted jab at an administration. Clinton continued, "We have kind of an affection for evidence.
We think it should inform our policies, because they'll actually work better," she declared, prompting modest laughter from the female-dominated audience.
With DNC Chair Tom Perez standing behind her and against a pink and blue backdrop emblazoned with a large "D," Clinton praised party leadership for running a staff whose leadership positions are filled by 44 percent people of color and 70 percent women.
"And you know why that's important? That is what America looks like."
SNIP
Sandwiched between DNC Chair Tom Perez and Congresswoman Maxine Waters (D-California), Hillary Clinton's speech won top billing among a hefty list of female party principals that also include Sen. Amy Klobuchar (D-Minnesota), Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand (D-New York), former acting attorney general Sally Yates, and Friday night's featured dinner speaker Sen. Kamala Harris (D-California), among others.
