Enough is enough with attacks on Trump

This president and our very republic are under attack. The opposition has been trying to overturn an election they thought they deserved and had won. Since they did not win at the ballot box, their goals have been to resist, throw road blocks at every turn, judicial activism and now impeachment.
Our country is unbelievably divided and being torn apart by the Democrats' political attacks. Is this what we voted representatives into office to do?
The Mueller report was a two year and expensive dud, Kavanaugh was vilified then re-vilified, the electoral college needs to be eliminated so New York and California can pick our president by popular vote as we in Iowa aren't intelligent enough to vote correctly, the Supreme Court needs to make non-constitutional decisions or the court will be increased and packed until they do, recent rule changes were made to the whistleblower law to allow second hand accusations, etc., etc.
Is there a pattern here? Indeed. If the results are not liked; invent accusations, smear and/or change rules until they can win. This activity sounds so juvenile if it didn't involve the very future of our country. I recall a prior president saying that elections have consequences. I guess you could add unless you don't like the results.
One Democrat representative recently said that if we don't take out this president; he'll get reelected! Bingo ... impeach him!
When will it stop? When we the people rise up and say enough is enough!
