Impeachment done right respects the Constitution. I am in no rush. Are you?
I get why Trump fans would want this over quick and clean, but surely you understand why Dems (and the voters who gave them the House) are in no mood for that, right? If Pelosi is smart, the House will methodically investigate every offense Trump is accused of since his term started, then she will present all of that info to the public as loudly as possible and force Senators to go on record voting to support Trump against impeachment sometime around next summer at the earliest. Even better if it goes to October. Pelosi has to know Trump won't be removed by a GOP Senate for anything whatsoever, so why not use the process as a weapon against those same GOP Senators?
If Trump is lucky, he may get some cooperation from Dems on the USMCA/NAFTA 2.0, but outside of that I'd say don't expect much.
Exactly. As you say above, impeachment, in this case, is about politics and not much else.
Wait. What is the "else" you wish it was about?
I'm asking because.... these are politicians. Everything is political. Weird, meaningless statement. Impeachment is LITERALLY politics by its very nature.
This reminds me of that "dilemma" scenario where you see a train coming and it's about to hit a group of people. You know you can stop the train, and save many lives, by pushing one very fat man in front of the train. What do you do?
The Republicans can't bring themselves to push the fat man, even though they're gotten most of what they wanted, because then they'll lose the next election for sure. They're going to watch the train wreck and blame Democrats for not pushing the fat man hard enough and fast enough to stop it. That may work out for them. The Biblical/Trump inerrancy folks on this site will buy it.
True. Same with Obama and Clinton. And may have God had mercy on our souls had the most deplorable been elected president.
Pucker up buttercup. Fat man going to run rail AOC style over everyone of your abortion climate change pipe dreams.
Damn if feels good to be a gangster.
You're kind of hateful.
Sad.
You're kind of gay
