President Donald John Trump, the 45th President Of The United States, has been impeached by the House of Representatives of the United States.
To paraphrase some of my priests, ” and may his soul and all the souls of the faithful Republicans burn in hell”
Representative John Kowalko
So, to you, not voting for impeachment is an unforgivable, mortal sin, deserving of eternal punishment?
Come January 20, 2025, Mr Trump will leave office, forever; his administration will not last forever. He will be 78 years old by then, he’s obese and eats crap. He will depart this mortal vale soon enough.
But what I really wonder is what you (plural) hope to accomplish. No partisan impeachment has ever succeeded — remember: we tried that in 1999, and President Clinton emerged more rather than less popular — and not a single Republican voted for either article of impeachment. If the Democrats couldn’t sway even one Republican, out of 197 in the House, what hope do you (plural) have of persuading 20 Republicans out of 53 to vote for removal in the Senate?
I’m guessing that the Democrats voted for this because the left wing of the party hates President Trump so much that they felt that, if they didn’t vote for impeachment, they’d all draw primary challengers, because, really, that’s the only thing that makes sense.
The parallels aren’t there. Support for Clinton’s impeachment was about 30%. You could look all this up, but I realize it might upset your internal narrative.
The reason for impeachment is that a U.S. president is pursuing a personal agenda with a hostile foreign power. They are doing their constitutional duty, which is more than any Republican now in office has ever done.
The Washington Post has the ‘whip count’ of senators on impeachment: seven have said they will vote for removal, 56 have not said how they would vote, and 37 have said they’d vote for acquittal . . . and that’s four more than needed to guarantee acquittal.
And Ukraine is a hostile foreign power? Who knew?
No, Russia is the hostile foreign power.
The vote isn’t the point. Upholding the constitution is the point. I don’t agree with how they did it — the violations of the emoluments clause is reason enough — but this is important for history.
Even if this republic turns into a dictatorship, like all the republics before it, this will serve as a warning to whoever revives democratic rule in the future.
“And Ukraine is a hostile foreign power? Who knew?”
What is…Things a Fox News Zombie Dumbfuck would say? For $1000, Alex.
Well said. The left wing commie loons control “pickled” NP..
JK – getting more and more senile..
PS. How’s that higher income tax bill coming along?
LOL
Ask again after the election LOL
Oh, no-o-o-o! Rachel has, wait for it, Chris Coons on.
Jesus
On a lighter note just read that Mark Meadows (yep, that Mark Meadows) is probably not running in 2020. Seems the courts undid the gerrymandered district that split liberal Asheville in two so rural areas could dilute the Dems votes. Without cheating they can’t win, and once in a while they admit it.
Is that it?
I just figured he was gonna be Secretary of State when Pompeo jumps for the senate.
Dana: ALL wings of the party hate Trump. Though I’m not sure about whatever wing is Gabbard’s.
they hate racist traitorous sex offenders. “they hate trump” plays into their narrative that he hasnt earned the disdain.
Tulsi loves whoever Modi tells her to love.
I get it, but I still hate him, for all the reasons he’s being impeached and then some. Hate has not blinded me; he deserves all of it and all the repercussions. That’s my “narrative.” Fuck their’s.
Seconded
