Maybe we should just impeach Trump

[ye-ole-hatch ıll|̲̅̅●̲̅̅|̲̅̅=̲̅̅|̲̅̅●̲̅̅|llıl]

so I'm getting a little impeachment-weary...I think the GOP was hoping for this

can't believe NO ONE here has any thoughts/commentary on the goings-on
is anyone even paying attention?

did you hear about the 'tapes' that came out today
Trump has claimed he doesn't know Parnas, but here he is having a lenghty and detailed conversation (you don't have those with people who come up for a photo op)
apparently giving him a direct order to "get rid of" a U.S. ambassador

but even with the audio...likely nothing will change their minds

He lies about facts and the GOP/Base don't care even if it's proven
so hard to work with that

parphrasing Rick Wilsons...."you can never shame trump, he will never apologize or care You look weak trying to get him to do so."
I don't know if any of the democrats have it in them to play dirty pool with this guy, but I think it's come down to that as he's not getting impeached

Lastly...there is no doubt in Trumps glorious past there are a number of women who he paid for their abortions.  This is a man who likes to go bareback with porn stars!  I really would love to see some one come forward and show documentation that they were made to or the doctor provided an abortion for trump....right before his MarchForLife appearance
yes we can't shame him...but those people would be a little miffed to hear/see that
and the schadenfreude would be delicious

I am paying attention and have listened to alot of it so far.

I think the GOP are a bunch of fucks. That's pretty much my takeaway. Party over country over democracy and they should all be ashamed of themselves and I can't wait until they're all voted the fuck out of office.

[K8teebug]

Also it should not be called a trial. It should be called Impeachment opening and closing arguments.

I stopped watching soap operas years ago. 

Somewhere back in the archive of this board I told you why they shouldn't do it and how it had zero chance of success.  You simply chose not to listen.

[Space Freely]

How are we supposed to work a full time job AND pay close attention to the hearings?

Wait, are you under the impression one or more of us are Democratic Congressmen?

I stopped watching soap operas years ago. 

I guess the frustrating part for me
the amount of damning evidence that has come out in public after Sept/Oct time frame...it's kinda mindblowing

Are you implying leadership knew about the photos, emails, texts, audio, TV confessions, GAO indictment...and that was already in their Calculus in September, when this train really left the station

One could say that Nancy knew most of that in early Dec tho

But you are right, we know how this movie ends...
Not sure how I look in the mirror and just shrug it off

My only hope is out of all this is that I act ...dedicating time and $$ in 2020
the clock and the wallet, formidable foes

[hutch]

Exactly...I was against impeachment for a long time but it got to a point that ignoring it would have in it of itself been dereliction

On the other hand you could say unless something dramatic changes impeachment is no longer viable unless you have the overwhelming majority in both houses and failing to vote to remove him means the President can basically do anything

So it’s a very steep price to pay on principle

How about Schiff though? Love him.

This does really scare me
 Can you imagine all the gloating and victory laps they will do

I this schiff is a great orator and can think on his feet
almost thinking he should have run in 2020

[hutch]

He couldn’t run and handle impeachment....I think he is the right person in the right place at the right time

bolton with his draft book release is such a tease...intentionally fucking with us
I can't believe he's playing with the future of our republic over making some money on a book deal

What do you mean? This is in perfect keeping with the current administration.

Schiff's strength in his argument comes from the fact that he is not doing this for personal gain, but for the good of the Republic.  If he were running, it would be attacked as self-serving and they likely wouldn't have chosen him.
