Impeachment

[vraiblonde]

So is it going to happen?

Who cares? It's not like any of them will be removed from office, or face any type of punishment. Democrats have shown us that if you have a House majority you can impeach someone you don't like every day if you want without even having legit charges. You can impeach a sitting President just cause you're mad you didn't win.

I expect from here on out if Democrats have a majority in the House and a Republican is President, that Republican will be impeached.

What is - I don’t know, ironic? - that Trump was impeached over a PHONE CALL asking Ukraine to look into Biden bribery and corruption. But somehow ACTUAL Biden bribery and corruption doesn’t rise to the level for impeachment.

Biden’s famous video where he brags about getting a prosecutor fired now appears connected to requests from Ukraine. It may not have been investigating Hunter’s corruption but it looks like it was intended to save someone’s ass.

without even having legit charges.

Lies. They were legit charges. Trump was the king of obstruction.

Republicans are just going to make it a circus to try to make a mockery of the whole impeachment process. The previous impeachments were legit. You had a lying crook of a president trying to fire anyone involved with investigating him....and then yelling "fight" 14 times before his idiot supporters go breaking into the Capitol, beating up cops, and trying to get revenge on politicians that hurt their feelings.

For your consideration ...

I am reminded of Romania and the Ceausescu's. And what happens when the people really get pissed off.

Here's a quote from the Independent in UK:

"His rule was essentially a cult of personality. He intended to sit it out, convinced of his own invincibility and the self-deluding righteousness of his socialist cause, seemingly incapable of understanding that it was only upheld by his overbearing, often vicious police and oppressive security services and the threat of Soviet intervention."

Kinda sounds familiar, doesn't it?

How the Romanian rulers who starved their people met their end

On Christmas Day 1989, after a tumultuous year, Romanian leader Nicolae Ceausescu and his wife were executed by firing squad against a toilet block. But what led to this egregious event, asks Mick O’Hare

You Democrats are breathtaking hypocrites and I give zero sh*ts about your cultist ravings.

I was thinking about that the other day - eventually the people get their belly full and heads start getting lopped off. Literally. It typically takes awhile because humans love to be pets but at some point the dictator goes too far and triggers a revolt.

I hope I'm still alive to see it.

McCarthy wants to begin if nothing else, to gain the authority to investigate everything.

All movie acting. Nothing will come of it.

Oh like the last two, it IS a dog and pony show, because even if he’s Jack the Ripper, the Dems in the Senate will never vote to remove him.

It DOES however open the door for thorough investigation. They may be able to definitively determine if he accepted bribes.

I can see at least one forum member has been taking advantage of MD's recent relaxing of recreational marijuana laws.

I'm going with no, I think someone may give him a heart attack so he can get some sympathy votes for whoever the D's put up to run. 100% certainty is that it isn't going to be Kamala, probably Newsom. Of course I also think someone is going to get to Trump and convince him that he's going to jail if he continues to run. My guess is that Desantis will get the go ahead, I'd prefer Tim Scott but that's neither here nor there.

Oh they aren't going to remove him from office - but they'll move to impeach him. I've seeing more and more each day, this man has been using his position for personal gain, for himself, and his family. But the Dems won't vote to remove him, not for any crime.

He and his whole family should die in a federal prison, but they won't.

Not sure they will impeach him either. At this point, not sure he can fully grasp the meaning/implication of impeachment and the Dems will do everything to not put him thru that confusion. Pretty sure he won't understand removal for incompetence under Section II Article 4 either. They'll just let his term run out on pity.

I don’t think they’ll remove him, I think there’s too much info on him and his family to cover up. He’s now a liability, but to get the last squeeze out of the lemon he could pass away in office this way they get the sympathy vote. Hunter is disposable so an OD isn’t out of the question. Cackles may get to be president for a year or so, but she won’t be the nominee.

I wonder...is your momma as embarrassed by your bullchit as we are?
I doubt your father is...I doubt you even know him...

Wouldn't surprise me, but I sure hope to hell not.

I’m as certain of that as I was of Bubba Clinton doing the same.

 

[Miker/t]

Joe Biden will win a second term - you watch and see.

Probably with 100 million votes!
