    Default It's Really Funny Hearing About 'All The Money Wasted On Impeachment...'

    Some Republicans have expressed a view that everybody knows the House is going to impeach and the Senate is going to acquit so why are we wasting our time? And then it goes on to talk about all the wasted efforts to 'go through the charade,' and how much money it's costing the government to pay for an impeachment.

    Well that's pretty funny when it is realized that Republicans recently signed off on the biggest tax cut in history, claiming it would stimulate the economy so much that it would more than pay for itself and actually reduce the debt. Sounded too good to be true, ya know? Pay less taxes, generate more revenue? Kind of like eating cake and losing weight.

    And at first some one-time revenue came in and it looked like the tax-cut was having a good effect. But that was short-lived. Contrary to Republican claims, in time, we have seen the revenue is not enough and the debt is out of control, with 1.2 trillion deficit.

    Republicans should not be bringing up the budget.

    It is shameful what they have done to it.

    Naturally, the Republicans would love it if the Democrats just rolled over and gave up.

    And President Trump would love it if he never had to answer to anybody else.

    This from a partisan hack who defended Obama's record breaking and massive deficits and accumulation of debt? STFU!

    In truth, we would like all of you to just STFU and stop pretending you didn't suffer a huge loss in 2016 incapable of moving on. We'd like you to comprehend the glaring hypocrisy of your lie filled ideological views.

    In fact, we would like you to all get educated and not act like low IQ buffoons as well.

    Indeed.

    PoliTalker is a hard-core radical who knows the outcome in the Senate and thinks that the millions spent on this circus is just swell. It isn’t.

    POLITBURO? Isn't that what PUTIN was a part of? Trump's trying to work with 2 of the BIGGEST POLITBUROS around the world. And they aren't 'DEMOCRATS'. And we have ZERO idea what Putin and the boys call their own 'group' in private. Federation or 'politburo'? Hell, Trump might be trying to work with THREE.

    During the 20th century, nations that
    had a politburo included the USSR, East Germany, Afghanistan, Czechoslovakia and China, amongst others. Today, there are five countries that have a politburo system: China, North Korea, Laos, Vietnam, and Cuba.

    Is our national debt higher today, far higher than when Obama left office? Like record highs?
