McConnell is said to be pleased about impeachment, believing it will be easier to pur

[BidenPresident]

I'm watching it live.

watching what? the 25th amendment debate?

[AProudLefty]

watching what? the 25th amendment debate?

Yeah. LOL. On C-SPAN.

watching what? the 25th amendment debate?

Yeah you're right we shall see tomorrow. It's just strange to see Democrats saying yes to everything and republicans saying no to everything. LOL.

[Mott the Hoople]

Democrats never listen to me but here goes lol.

They shouldn’t do this regardless of what McConnell supposedly said. The Turtle may even be baiting them. Too many voters don’t want it and their anger will carry over to the midterms.

It’s going to be a bad political move and arguably worse than the first misguided impeachment that was ‘such a glaring success‘ democrats barley mentioned it during the campaign. It has all the appearances of some medieval characters exhuming a dead king and scattering his bones. Besides, it makes no sense: the whole point to impeachment is to try and score the removal and he’s gone in little over a week.

But when it comes to Trump, Democrats can’t help themselves. And when it comes to Nancy Pelosi she *really can’t help herself*. One of the damnedest things I’ve ever seen.

Sorry but you don’t have a lot of credibility on that score.

First, it can’t get much worse.

Second you’ve picked the peanuts out of Trumps shit every step of the way.

Next, you’ve failed to understand the consequences and the history of demagogues. Cause anyone who has is utterly not surprised in the least about what happened.

And since you failed to see that then inevitably you will fail to see that history has shown time and time again that the only way for a Republic and/or Democracy to deal with a demagogue like Trump is to promptly hold said demagogue and his enablers accountable for their attacks on Republican/Democratic institutions. Otherwise the precedent set will be repeated over and over again by politicians in the future who note that he got away with it.

So now the precedent must be set that no you will not get away with it.

So Mitt Romney was absolutely right. The only reconciliation Trump and his supporters need to hear is the cold hard truth. That Trump lied and misrepresented the truth over and over and over again. He lost an election that was fair, honest and with virtually no evidence whatsoever to verify his lies that there was any fraud that occurred that would have changed the outcome of the election.

So if you believed the lies and misrepresentations and you feel that you’re owed some form of reconciliation because his supporters were inflamed to commit an egregious act of treason well you’re sadly mistaken.

The only reconciliation you deserve is the truth. That truth being that Biden won this election fairly and honestly and it’s not our problem or our fault that you believed and supported Trumps lies.

We don’t owe you a damned thing because you believed the lies and the only reconciliation the faithful citizens of this nation owes you is the unvarnished truth.

Senator Mitch McConnell of Kentucky, the Republican leader, has told associates that he believes President Trump committed impeachable offenses and that he is pleased that Democrats are moving to impeach him, believing that it will make it easier to purge him from the party, according to people familiar with his thinking.

Somebody better tell Mitch it is Trump's party now. The voters want America first. Mitch is serving his last term, unless he cheats which now is quite possible.

Trump is not the Trump movement.

If Democrats and the Never Trump Rumps think getting rid of Trump means getting rid of economic nationalism and Trump supporters ‘they don’t get it.’ Which isn’t surprising since they still don’t it after four years.

I think Trump’s place is king maker anyway. I don’t want him to run again.

What are your principles, and how do they differ from Republican principles?

[Bill]

Interesting. Republican leadership is "purging" Trump. Hence the ReTrumplicans have a choice.

If that is what they are doing the will also help trump build his brand w/ those X-gop ppl

Only one he want to be king is him......

Can he really make someone else??

Yep.........

They've let it go so long & is gonna hurt them almost as much as it will trump........

disagree. no one other then Trump made economic nationalism
( as opposed to globalism, and capitulation to China) a policy point

Repubs are globalist, Dems are that as well as unwilling to check China except thru the WTO
( a meaningless paper tiger)

Nobody is going to confront China - the main target of economic nationalism

They should not listen to you. Pelosi was against it the first time. She argued against it for purely political reasons. She is not a grand impeacher.
McConnell has not talked to Trump in months. Trump has refused his calls. They hate each other. Mitch has wrung everything out of Trump that he can. He can be honest now.

Wrong again. Congrats on maintaining your perfect record.

You might want to find a new hobby. You suck at this one.

For the record, the point of impeachment is to make sure Trump cannot run again. So you're wrong about that too. Congrats.

You are still playing the board game of life, where you think Donald Trump has some kind of a get-out-of-jail-free or get-out-of-trouble-for-free card just because he is Donald Trump the WHITE RICH PRIVILEGED MAN!

Life is not a silly board game, and there are no get-out-of-jail-free cards, FOR YOU OR DONALD TRUMP!.

There are consequences to everything you do in life- and when you commit impeachable offenses- you can be impeached in accordance to the Constitution.

The Democrats take their oath of office seriously, so when a president violates the constitution, then it becomes the Congress's duty to impeach a president who violates the Constitution. Congress is compelled to impeach them out of duty to country.

And if Mitch McConnell take his oath of office seriously, then he will get his Senate in order, take a vote, and convict the president of his impeachable offenses.

That is how it works!

You and Donald Trump do not have to agree- but the result will be impeachment!
