How the hell does this guy build up the gonads to appear on national television after being revealed to have been compromised by a Chinese spy?
They know damn well this isn't going anywhere in the Senate so it is an embarrassing waste of time. It is an obvious abuse of the impeachment process and will go down in history as a pure embarrassment, something that should not be done.
Impeachment is a fucking meme, articles of impeachment should be voted on every month or so because why not.
Are you really surprised? If we went by the criteria of politically deepthroating Chinese cock making you a traitor then the incoming dementia patient-in-chief would be considered one.
I mean Trump has what 90% approval rating with his supporters who probably lean Republican and was voted most admired man in the world? Impeaching him when he has less than a week left in the White House is the stupidest most petty thing possible. Hes all but gone, and even though he says hes going to run in 2024 he's not going to win the nom, for all intents and purposes hes done in politics. Kicking him on his way out the door would accomplish nothing except piss off his supporters and cost some of these guys their seats.
Is it even possible to deepthroat a tiny two inch chink dick?
I imagine that US politicians can manage to do that considering the majority of them also have a "fondness" for little boys.
Doesn't a successful impeachment mean the accused can't run for office any more afterwards? That seems to be their goal.
I mean some of these guys have already lost their seats.
Impeachment is now just a political weapon to try and remove people from office they don't like. I would say this is going to be a regular problem but considering the amount of power the Democrats have, I have strong feeling there's not going to be a need to do so. Every politician is going to fall in line or be Mao'd.
Seems unlikely. If there was proof to be had the election was stolen, the Republicans would have found it by now. More likely Trump's been such a loose canon that's accomplished so little, that whipping a mob up into a frenzy aimed at them was the last straw and they just really don't want to have to deal with him again. Nor are they keen on seeing what he might do with the privileges he'd be entitled to as a former president who served out his term. A lot of Republicans would be similarly happy to see him gone, but aren't keen on the potential precedents that would be set in punishing Trump at this point. That's probably what McConnell is weighing at this point. Punish Trump, mostly get rid of him, but risk unpleasant long term precedents? Don't punish him, risk him dividing the Republican vote next election, but avoid worrisome precedents?
That would probably be the best thing for him and in general, with the second best thing being Trump using the 25th amendment to hand power to Pence for the remainder of his term and spend the rest of it golfing. However I don't think Trump's capable of thinking in those terms. It'd require too much admitting he'd fucked up and done something wrong. Also he may not be confident that Pence would pardon him. Pence is still probably pretty pissed at Trump; just not enough to start bending the intent of the 25th amendment. So Trump remains in place and Pence spends his time praying nothing else happens before Trumps term is up and it's no longer Pence's personal problem to deal with shit.
I'm not. Trump can't take an L to save his life, literally at this point.
Try it and report back?
The GOP hates him. They found more than enough for him to win. They just did not want to. The plan was to get rid of Trump but keep the senate...and then they did not really support Trump in his challenges, basically ensured the 2000 Covid relief would not pass and assumed the Dems would not do what they did to Trump to establishment candidates. Such blunders cost them Georgia.
There were plenty of senior republicans who warned against having Trump as the nominee - but frankly the voters get what they want so there was nothing to stop Trump getting in.
