Impeachmen' 2: Electoral Boogaloo

[Forever Spinning Vinyl]

So basically, as long as their big donors don't say anything "ATTACK THE LIBERALS!!!!!" . . . "What's that? Citicorp is pulling my funding? IMPEACH DONALD TRUMP!!!!!!"

Pence has sent a letter to Pelosi stating that he will not utilize the 25th Amendment. Trump will be impeached for the 2nd time tomorrow.

And so he'll be impeached and if the Senate/McConnell brings it he will be removed.

My question is that if he is removed and banned from holding office in the future does I assume that also mean he can't fundraise?  I'd think THAT will be more harmful than his actually not being able to hold office again.

There shouldn’t be any reason why he couldn’t raise and spend money

I suppose he could still have a PAC?

He can't have a charity.  The banks have deserted him.  Politics may be the only source of income he can generate.

His kids can still grift off the "brand" but unless they are smarter at spending that daddy it won't last long.

Live now...the WP says Republicans are joining the Yay side of the impeachment but I guess we will see in 15 minutes. I do know Mitch threw Trump under the bus.

Trump will probably start up a GoFundMe.

We're seeing the continued argument that the POTUS must have committed a crime for impeachment, which is 100% not true.

Trump loves the uneducated.

Mitch is the most manipulative and brilliant politician of his time.  He sucked him dry to get his judges, and now he's going to play the hero by disposing of the body.  It's probably the end of the line for him after this.  They'll primary the hell out of him here in Kentucky if they find a far right candidate to use Impeachment against him.

Just tell them seditious conspiracy and keep moving.

I have to say the notion that America would unite and heal if we all get behind the 33% of people who approve of Donald Trump and ignore the majority and increasingly partisan condemnation of him is quite interesting.

As someone who likes anchovies on pizza and knowing that 95% of people can't stand being in the same room as them, I think it is important that we all unite and heal by getting a huge smelly anchovy pizza.

Jim Jordan is such trash.

[BmorePat87]

Jim Jordan is on the floor sounding like the clown he is trying to attack attempts to impeach Trump. He isn't making any arguments against the charges. He's focusing on how this will tear everyone apart...

He just mentioned Kitty Hawk to talk about how great the US is...

Not sure if him admitting we landed on the moon is going to play well with his new conspiracy-crazy base.

Also, his main arguments...

#1 democrats have wanted Trump out since day 1!
#2 what is the point of removing Trump from power since he only has a week left?

[BmorePat87]

next Republican is wearing a mask that says "this mask is as useless as our governor"

Both Republicans have compared the terrorist attack to BLM.
