:dead:Why are you in here then?:dahell:
To shed light on the masses in this thread.

Nah seriously since these clowns had such an ignorant and venomous reaction to my honest political assessment of impeachment early on, I might stop by to say “I told you so” a little since it’s being received exactly how I said it would.

Isn’t that what I said the whole time? That impeachment won’t move the needle, and won’t change anyone’s mind about voting for Trump either way?

And for that I’ve been pilloried as a concern troll, undercover Trump supporter, etc. been told I should be banned from the thread and had rape threats against my mother.

Wonder if the mea culpas will come. This is the coli so probably not.
That's how you have attempted to frame the conversation. The accurate portrayal is Trump has committed impeachable offenses and therefore should be held accountable through the impeachment process.

You have attempted to say that impeachment would hurt dems with voters - - it hasn't.

You've then attempted this second argument saying, well it hasn't helped, but that wasn't your initial claim. I would also like to note you've run two permutations of this argument - - one saying dem voters in the midwest don't care (while Ignoring data that shows dem support has grown for impeachment) and the other to say we'll Republicans don't care (despite data showing that independents have increased their support for impeachment).

That argument comes across as either premature or concern trolling for two reasons. One, I mentioned previously, that impeachment is about holding the president accountable through the methods outlined in the constitution and not as a mere exercise in populism. Secondly, your argument ignores historical data of when public opinion changed regarding the impeachment of Nixon and Clinton.

We haven't reached the point of hearing for Trump and they're still waiting on a few court decisions that will have a large affect on how those hearings go and how much of a defense Trump can put up.

With Clinton, he remained popular largely because he was always extremely popular and hiding an affair never really rose to the bar to shift public opinion.

Still, in 2000 Republicans took control of the White House.

People chastise you because you don't know what's going to happen so when you and @Frank Grimes pretend like you do everyone knows you're being dishonest.

No I didn't. I said nobody who doesn't already hate Trump such as you and I would be swayed by this. I said it won't move the needle, and I said it has the potential to backfire on Dems. I did not predict that it would.

I know impeachment is about holding Trump accountable, which I why I think it's necessary. It's political impact is up for debate, and you and some others can't seem to separate these two issues in your mind.

Until Trump's support significantly drops and starts to lose his party I've been vindicated. :umad: If he does nosedive I will be happy to be wrong.

Once public hearings start the pro impeachment rating will probably go up to 60%. Republican support will probably drop to about 60% too. It should be interesting to see if Senate Republicans turn on him at trial.
That doesn't mean 20 GOP Senators will vote to remove Trump.

Just your reminder that this isn’t a political game changer and nobody really cares. Zero impact on the polls.:yawn:


Even this is a lie. . . Common sense should tell you all that Trump is easily ahead of all of them in all of those states at the moment. Trump is farrr more popular than the media and the same poll takers who lied about his popularity in 2016 are willing to promote.

Before anyone says anything. I knew Trump was going to win in 2016. Even bet all my coli cash on it.

The problem is. . . The media is literally creating a large portion of people who won't publicly proclaim their support for Trump, but who will and have vote(d) for him secretly in the booth.

But since yall are stupid, you all just going to call me names.:yeshrug:

The public doesn't know what's going on yet. They won't care until the Senate trial

Your right I’m starting to realize most people aren’t as dug in or informed as we are Trump realizes that and is able to control to narrative had a conversation about impeachment with someone today and their response was but Biden is corrupt too what about what he did...Democrats need some easily digestible talking points on this or most people won’t care

Dems are most likely taking the Senate in 2020 regardless of Impeachment or not. The number of GOP seats up vs the number of Dem seats up gives them favor to win.

Nah, Rethugs are favored to keep the Senate. It's possible for Dems to take the Senate if every competitive seat goes their way, but they're the underdogs.

Sure there are a lot of GOP seats up, but almost all of them are safe. Probably the most optimistic scenario (that isn't wildly unlikely) is a 50-50 split with a Dem VP to break ties.

You are correct, and are there are none.

We live in a country where most people assume the president and the whole government are inherently corrupt and always get away with crimes anyway.

When everyone learns about this, first they’re gonna be like why do we give millions of dollars to Ukraine anyway when people are suffering here.

Then they’ll say Trump was wrong for withholding aid unless he got dirt on Biden. But they’ll also wonder why the fukk his son was getting 50k a month to serve on a Ukrainian energy board.

Ukraine ended up getting their aid anyway, and this isn’t even a top 5 worse thing Trump did.

At the end of the day :unimpressed: No impact.
