    By then, the investigation into trump's involvement in the terrorist actions at the Capitol, as well as his campaign violations in Ga will be finished. We already know that he pressured more than one person in Ga to falsify the ballot count. Who knows how many more will surface? Say nothing about staff who will be coming forward with information about the crimes committed after the election.

    The House can add more articles of impeachment, and pressure a small handful of Senate Republicans to do the right thing. Imagine trump stroking out because he won't be able to ever run for office again? He can't fundraise for same, and he might even lose SS protection.

    none of this will happen.

    they are different, but you're pursuing a vendetta.

    As with most things, there are pros and cons to both approaches.
    Well now it appears that McConnell might actually be pro impeachment. He's not going to run again in 6 years, so he has nothing to worry about.

    It would also strip away any charges that it was done out of haste and shock over the capitol attack which endangered the lawmakers.
    And it gives them time to uncover dozens of other impeachable offenses.

    You won't know what's in the Mueller report until there is a real AG.

    Of course he won't. He'll be dead in 4 years. But he'll get people like you to send him money in the interim

    it was a mostly peaceful protest. people who actually broke things or did violence should be prosecuted.

    They are talking now about splitting their daily calendar between Biden’s business and impeachment. We’ll see what they decide.

    Bullshit - it was a murderous mob, and if you pretend not to know that you should be certified, like your fat master.

    McConnell making noise about being in favor of impeaching trump. Probably not enough time unless they just vote with no trial.


    Just like last time.
