    I have maintained for a long time that the legislative calendar in the House is fixed and set. The last day to hold a full floor vote in the House is December 12th. That isn't a made up date. I don't know if that can just be arbitrarily changed or not. Given the holidays and politicians propensity to want to leave DC, I would think not.

    There is nothing "artificial" about my timeline. The legislative calendar IS the legislative calendar.

    If they don't have a full House vote by December 12th (eight business days from now), then that pushes this all the way into January. I know you say you don't care about that, but I know six democrats running for President who do care about that. And I suspect that they would rather be out campaigning for their party nomination rather than stuck in the Senate during an impeachment trial.

    But, hey if you think they won't care, who can question your judgement? When have you ever been wrong before?

    High-minded principle lol?

    Why don’t democrats take the sure-shot censure vote and pick up some republicans? I can’t get a good answer for that.
    1) Pointing out that what he did was unacceptable and for future presidents.
    2) Marking in history the Republicans cowardliness..

    If Trump would admit his mistake I’d be okay without the impeachment but it can’t be allowed to go on without someone saying it’s wrong and illegal.

    You are still unwilling to predict? 8 business days are plenty and I think the impeachment will likely occur on or before the 12th.

    You are so wimpy you won’t even reassert your prior prediction.

    I think it's pointless trying to predict how this will shake out when everything is unprecedented.

    Unlikely in the extreme

    Oh I misunderstood. I thought you meant convict but re-elect him after that. My bad

    So Democrats went full Fascist when they kept Clinton?

    He did what many other Presidents have done. Held aid until he had assurances the aid would not be used in a corrupt manner. Joe Biden didn't. He held aid to get someone fired who was investigating a company his son was benefiting from. But in dimwit leftist land, that was A OK.

    For doing what Democrats had already done during Clinton's impeachment? Did you denounce Democrats as cowards?

    Trump doesn't give a shit about your opinion. You actually don't exist. You only exist here because it is a tiny little fishbowl.

    Trump made no mistake he needs to apologize for. The Democratic Party of the Jackass are burning down the house over an election loss they can't get over; if anyone owes the American people an apology, it is them.

    Yes. They blindly supported him even though he clearly should have been removed for lying under oath. Today, the Democrats have moved away from Fascism, but the Republicans have moved towards it.

    You've got it exactly backwards. The Democratic Party of the Jackass have embraced Fascism, and the Republicans continue to fight it.
