    Just schooling you.

    Not an easy thing to do with you.
    Nice try Buck Wheat but technically Trump was not impeached until the House leaders announce on the Senate Floor "The president is impeached." Then and only then is he officially impeached.

    Yes, let them have the Biden’s, it is well worth having Mulvaney and Bolton testify, Rudy, too!

    That is coming back to earth, for you. Thanks. However, the American voter clearly knows how partisan is Trump. It will destroy him this year politically, and beginning next year, in the courts.

    Oh, stop acting the silly. Trump was Impeached the second the vote of Impeachment was concluded. Learn your civics, dude.

    One...the announcement is NOT necessary. Trump was impeached the moment the House passed the first article of impeachment.

    Two...the House Managers (not the House Leaders)...DELIVERED (not announced)...the articles of impeachment to the Senate yesterday.

    Your comments were made today.

    See what happens when you shoot your mouth off and don't know what the hell you are talking about?

    Exactly!!!

    In fact, Biden could probably insure his victory in November if he announced he will voluntarily testify at the impeachment.

    I have no idea of what you mean by that. I suspect you do not know what you meant by that either.



    Stop paraphrasing me. You are not very good at it. If you have a problem with something I have said...quote what I said and tell me what you object to.



    Trump sycophants should not talk about lemmings.



    Okay...a valid point.

    But I think they should call for witnesses. There have been two previous presidential impeachment trials...and both had witnesses.

    The world did not come to an end.



    My guess is the next time the Republicans have the majority in the House and there is a Democratic president...there will be talk of impeachment.

    Nothing you can do about that.




    If the Republican Senators want to develop a bit of integrity...they will ask for more witnesses...and then convict this disgusting abomination now in the White House.

    But...I doubt "integrity" is what is on their minds.



    There were 600 former federal prosecutors who said that "the evidence the House gathered" is not only compelling...it is MORE than they had when they got convictions.

    So???
    So lol, why are Democrats needing more witnesses?

    If the evidence supporting the articles is so ‘compelling’ why do Democrats insist on more witnesses?

    And yes, the next inevitable impeachment of a democrat president by a Republican House CAN be stopped. It can be stopped right in its tracks, by THIS Senate, if they vote strictly on the ‘compelling’ articles sent to the Senate. The clear message will be sent to future Houses that they need to be patient, and allow the courts to adjudicate subpoenas and etc.

    No more half-done investigations masquerading as impeachment articles—or send them, and risk dismissal or summary vote with no witnesses. And pay the hefty political price for trying it.

    Trump will no longer haunt your dreams at some point, Frank. But the rest of us will have to live with the precedent Democrats are trying to establish for decades to come.
    Coup has started. First of many steps. Impeachment will follow ultimately~WB attorney Mark Zaid, January 2017

    So did you shrilly cry out how cowardly Democratic Senators were when they refused to convict Clinton for REAL crimes and not the imagined one's against Trump?

    Of course you didn't; you're a shrill, uneducated, whiny leftist hack with a severe case of TDS.

    Was Jerry Nadler a massive hypocrite or merely a hyper partisan liar when he made this declaration during the Clinton Impeachment?

    Socialism is just the modern word for monarchy.

    D.C. has become a Guild System with an hierarchy and line of accession much like the Royal Court or priestly classes.

    Private citizens are perfectly able of doing a better job without "apprenticing".

    To make the case even stronger?

    or

    Why not?

    Your choice.

    Bullshit.

    The other two presidential impeachments had witnesses...this one should also.

    No more half-done investigations masquerading as impeachment articles—or send them, and risk dismissal or summary vote with no witnesses. And pay the hefty political price for trying it.
    Since The Leader is so obviously innocent...why are you people so afraid of hearing from people who can testify?

    Why?

    Trump will no longer haunt your dreams at some point, Frank. But the rest of us will have to live with the precedent Democrats are trying to establish for decades to come.
    Trump does not even enter my dreams...let alone haunt them.

    And if "witnesses at a trial" is something we have to live with...

    ...OKAY WITH ME.

    Actually...we often see witnesses at trials.

    In fact...I do not know of ANY trial in this country where there were no witnesses.

    Get with the program, Darth.

    ...Trump.

    Good grief, would I ever love to see Trump testify under oath!

    No, it isn't.

    This trial is about the Bidens. It is about the Democrats. It is about the Schiff's invisible witnesses. It is about all that accuse Trump.
