Bi-Partisan Support For Impeachment

Yeah...what I get from everything is that there's disagreement among the senior State Department staff of what Trump's motives were.

 

Which - again - has everyone rushing to cherry-pick whichever statements support their preconceived notions.

Talk about counting chickens before they hatch...

The premise of this article is to change the rules of succession to remove the speaker (Pelosi) in order to get more Republicans to find it palatable to vote for impeachment.

Democrats should make it legally impossible for impeachment to deliver them the White House.

 

BUT THAT'S WHY THEY'RE DOING IT!!!!!

Yeah I like to avoid the media, but now more than ever.

Most don’t seem to know how the government and politics work.  The rest try to come up with too-clever ideas. 

 

I cant wait for someone to propose that Andrew Cuomo fill Chris Collins’ empty seat with Hillary Clinton, and then the House immediately votes to make her speaker just before voting to impeach both Trump and Pence.  Of course the proposal would conveniently leave out the fact that the Senate would then vote 99-1 (Romney) to acquit. 

 

These are are the type of articles I’m expecting to see.

Probably not.  Trump supporters have jobs.

 

More to the point, the DC Metro region is liberal, and full of progressive activists.  You can't get the same conservative turnout for demonstrations.

I cannot find the campaign ad. Apparently, it is running on Facebook:

McConnell fundraises off impeachment, says effort will fail 'with me as majority leader'

 

Earlier this week, Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell said his chamber would have "no choice" but to hold a trial on whether to remove President Donald Trump from office if the House votes to impeach.

But in a new campaign ad on Facebook, the Kentucky Republican claims that any impeachment attempt will fail as long as he remains in charge of the Senate.

"Nancy Pelosi's in the clutches of a left wing mob. They finally convinced her to impeach the president," McConnell says directly to the camera in a 17-second video. "All of you know your Constitution. The way that impeachment stops is a Senate majority with me as majority leader.

"But I need your help," he adds, standing in front of a picture of an elephant. "Please contribute before the deadline."
