The Impeachment Thread

[Orange_Crush]

I don't want this lost in my merely mocking you. Please tell us how the American experiment will have failed by a Trump landslide victory.

Bump, @luthervol.

 

[Orange_Crush]

After the senate votes and we have all these people on record, every person who voted to impeach and remove should be put in prison

Let's not turn our system into political gulags.

If they can prove treason or insurrection, hang them. If it was idiocy in office, censure them. I'd hate to set the precedent that a failed impeachment means jail time.

I know, they will be too busy clasping their pearls from the utter shock of that comment to muster up the ability to vote.

Schiff refers to CBS 'head on pike' story, infuriating GOP: 'Every one of us knows it is not true'

Again, Trump never said such a thing to any Senator(s) as to what lying Schitt said about heads on a pike. All lies that's made up BS.....as usual the Dem eating sheep believe anything Schitt says as gospel according to him.

 

[Mick]

I don't think they will after the unending horror over the "heads on pikes" mentioned by Schiff.

Give me a brief rundown on this please. I don't know what you're talking about. I've not been keeping up.

Trying to overthrow a President and influence an election should have consequences

You couldn't get those hours back if you did. Dragging it out in the courts with frivolous executive privilege claims is a waste of time.

Coming up with bogus articles of impeachment is a waste of time as we all can see.

Exchanging opinions with 37 isn't crying.

This is true. An exchange of opinions and views is OK by me. I know we don't see eye to eye about politics. But I would still buy you a beer.

They're not bogus, the're drawing a line of Presidential power congress is going to afford any President. It's more of an assault on the Constitution by the GOP than anything. Three equal branches of government, checks and balances, and Impeachment.

And no removal. Game over

I think you know that it is all BS. The Democrats were looking to manufacture a reason to impeach since the night of the election. The "line" is being drawn now because it's Trump, anybody else carrying a (D) would get a pass.

I hope to God that when a (D) becomes President that we don't have the same pettifogging as is being demonstrated now.

I've always wanted to use that word. Thanks for the opportunity, Mick.

I think they're called Senators.

I don't disagree. I personally suspect this is a coupe, so--like I said--if they can prove treason, don't stop at jail time. A rope or a firing squad. I'm serious.

But even if this is a coupe, there will be masterminds and then useful idiots who cast their votes. They should be treated differently, and with caution. It's a dangerous precedent to throw people in jail just for voting for an impeachment. The Democrats have already set a dangerous precedent with this impeachment. Let's not have the winning side compound the mistake.

 

[SpaceCoastVol]

Right. They are the ones that voted straight down their party line for these shenanigans.

With competition clutch and four on the floor...

lol. My bad.

 

[Mick]

Yep, not a single house GOP member voted to impeach.

 

[37L1]

Yep, not a single house GOP member voted to impeach.

And a couple of Democrats voted to not impeach.

Strong case right there.

 

[Mick]

Well the D's didn't vote down party lines did they? Are you trying to take up Spacecoasts argument?

 

[37L1]

Well the D's didn't vote down party lines did they?

For once, because the articles of impeachment must stink that much.

 

[Orange_Crush]

Well the D's didn't vote down party lines did they?

So, the Dems couldn't put together a good enough case to convince anyone outside their own party, and not good enough to convince everyone in their own party...


...and you're bragging about that?

 

[Mick]

For once, because the articles of impeachment must stink that much.

You can't argue both sides.
