And what happens when the senate exonerates him? What does that do politically to the democrats?
That’s when you ask them why for the whole world to see. We’ve seen the report now and we will get Mueller to testify. So Now let them defend their positions. Ask them why they are okay with foreign entities aiding Donald Trump’s election. Ask them since when we do this? Ask them can Americans not conduct their American elections without outside help? Ask these senators have they ever accepted foreign help and if not why should the president.

This is a gift wrapped opportunity for the Democrats. Specifically the progressives that want to show this party can fight back.

Honestly I could see the initial reaction of Dems being p*ssy (you go back to what you know) but after they have their conference I do expect them to decide to impeach.
what about their job is to impeach an unlawful president are you not understanding?

Damn what the Senate does. Having hearings on impeachment and presenting all the facts and those Senators ignoring means that they aren't following the rule of law and will have their legacies attached to allowing an unlawful president in office.

Yep, let them choose party over country for everyone to see. It could legit be the catalyst kill their party.

People wanting to jump the gun and immediately move to impeachment need to calm down.
Who is jumping the gun?

What I am reacting to is Steny Hoyer saying they wouldnt move forward with impeachment. Of course you want a thorough process. That's why you have congressional hearings on it. thats why you bring in Barr, Rosenstein, Mueller, Trump Jr, etc. You don't take it off the table without having read the report like Hoyer did.

How you gonna ROFL with a hollow back?
So, if the Dems in the house do go towards inpeachment, and it goes through, and then dies in the senate because they are Repub majority, do the Dems still get blamed for not convincing the Repubs to go through with it? Or if Manchin alone doesn’t go for it, does that mean that ALL the Dems are cowards?

I agree. He’ll end up backtracking.

I'd love to see that orange fukk thrown out of office, but realistically, there aren't 20 republican senators who are going to vote yes to impeaching Cheeto. I've said multiple times, Democrats can vote to impeach daily from now until 2021, but it won't do shyt if the Senate can't/won't convict. Best plan of action is to lay everything on the table in hearings to build up a case so that in the event he wins reelection, they have a better shot of impeaching. Keep in mind the 2020 senate map is much more favorable to Dems than the 2018 map.

Barr Might as well drop the full unredacted report in front of congress and quit....:manny: you can't protect this a$$hole forever at the cost of your own career...:demonic:
The bigger question is who does Barr really work for? The fact that he put out an opt Ed piece auditioning for a job he once had with this admin screams he’s protecting the interest of someone else and it ain’t trump

I always knew white people were full of it. The same people who were against “bussing” are the same people against migrant caravans. These people are who we thought they were.

The president is a traitor. The president has engaged in treason. The presidents justice department feels its all a misunderstanding:

What does the next Democratic administration do? Because there will be another republican in this presidents image. But he is going to be competent.

What happened to the republicans in 97 when they moved to impeach Clinton for far less egregious transgressions? I believe the Republicans kept control of Congress and won the next 2 presidential elections.

The democrats don’t really lose anything by impeaching. Best case, they win, or block his agenda for the next 2 years while making it super hard to campaign. He can’t hold rally’s and yell build the wall while he’s prepping for being tried in the senate.

What’s the worst case? They can’t convict. Then a bunch of people who were never going to vote for Dems continue to not vote for Democrats.

And the democrats get to show the republicans that they no longer give a fukk about norms and that they are also willing to play the escalation game. Which should act as a better check than the general hand wringing they do.

I dont care if they wait for Mueller to testify before they do something, but I disagree with them just waiting for 2020. Even if it doesnt go anywhere in the Senate, that can be used against the "moderate" rethugs running for reelection. I'll give the Dems some leeway because this is uncharted waters, but they didnt get the House back for us to wait two more years to see action

Sidenote, where's all the clowns who didn't think this was over? You defeatist ass nikkas disgust me. All you pussies that wanted to roll over and die at the first sign of adversity need to :camby:because yall wont have the hearts for what comes next
