Now That Trump's President... (not any more!)


Nebraska

Recommended Posts

Great! Except he's still going to be president when we wake up tomorrow, we're still going to have to hear & read all the nonsense he spews out, he's still going to have a huge chunk of the country supporting him, and best of all...he might be re-elected next year so we get to continue having this discussion for 4-5 more years!!

Unless there are a few renegade 'publicans in the Senate that are cooking up a coup, we're going to be stuck with the shit show for the foreseeable future...

My point is, history will never take him seriously as POTUS now.  Next year, the impeachment will be in school text books, forever.

no one cares that Clinton got impeached, because it was stupid. the R supporters in all their great intelligence have been and will continue to paint this as ‘stupid’ (of course it isn’t but reality doesn’t matter) and it will be a minor note on Trump’s ridiculous presidency. the larger issues that allow this to be a minor issue are far, far more important.

I'm secretly hoping his presidential legacy is stricken from future text books forever.

Bush 2000 - 2008

Obama 2008 - 2016

??? 2016 - 2020 (there was this guy that was president back from 2016 - 2020, but he wasn't any good, so let's not talk about it and move on, OK)

The slave-owning galaxy brain framers never thought what happens when the checks and balances fails when one party is supporting a corrupt president and has control of the senate and has no intention of acting as a fair juror.

Yeah despite all the rallies throughout the country in support of impeachment, I can pretty much guarantee it will be DOA the moment it reaches the Senate. I'm not saying impeachment was the wrong thing to do - Trump absolutely deserved it. But realistically it will fall through in the end. So I'm not about to run victory laps in excitement.

Besides, 2020 is imminent.

Perhaps. Gop will set precedent though. Let them take responsibility for their crap by moving it to senate. They can look back in 10 years and think about what they did.

We know nothing is going to happen, right?

have you seen/read something? i read this:

"After six hours of floor debate and likely some procedural wrangling, both articles are expected to pass in the late afternoon or evening with the support of nearly every Democrat, and few (if any) Republicans. Final votes on each article are expected sometime between 6:30 pm and 7:30 pm Eastern, though that timeline could slip. 

These votes will be the culmination of the House’s impeachment process over the Ukraine scandal — in which Trump tried to pressure the Ukrainian government into investigating his 2020 rival Joe Biden, by withholding a White House meeting and military aid. They will not, however, remove the president from office. Rather, a trial in the Senate is coming next, in January — and that chamber is overwhelmingly likely to acquit Trump, leaving him in power."

i'm curious if you read/saw something different. or just skepticism.

regarding the senate, there are more shoes that may drop. this is serious nat sec shit and a lot of very serious people are very seriously working. even if no new evidence is revealed, the needle is more likely to move toward supporting impeachment. but there is reason to expect one or more pieces of significant evidence to become public, further harming any rationale for GOP support of Trump. the GOP are already tugging their collars. a lot is in play.

 

today, in fact, prosecutors revealed RUSSIAN OLIGARCH FIRTASH was the one who gave indicted Giuliani associate Lev Parnas a million dollars, which Parnas failed to inform the FBI about. Note that Parnas gave Giuliani a half million.

Mcconnell says he wants to dismiss the entire trial as quickly as possible with no evidence presented and no witnesses called.  Just a straight floor vote, and then they can go back to oppressing Americans.

By doing that he puts the Senate on the chopping block in November. It would be cleansed by voters. They are sweating. Pelosi played this well.
