‘Waiting Is a Mistake’: Tom Steyer Wants Trump Impeachment Now
BREITBART ^ | 5 Nov 2017 | Joel B. Pollak

Posted on 11/05/2017 7:36:43 PM PST by Cheerio

Billionaire Democrat Tom Steyer is telling his party that they need to impeach President Donald Trump right now — and that waiting is a mistake.

“The fact of the matter is that we believe he is dangerous to the American people now,” he told the UK Guardian. “We believe that waiting is a mistake and we believe the events that will occur over the next year will show that we are right.”

Steyer did not specify which events he meant, but presumably it meant further criminal charges stemming from Special Counsel Robert Mueller’s investigation into alleged Russian interference in the 2016 election. Thus far, Mueller has produced two indictments for money laundering prior to the election and other charges, and one guilty plea for lying to the FBI, but no actual evidence of collusion between the Trump campaign and the Russian government.

Steyer has rolled out a $10 million ad campaign pressing Congress to impeach the president — though the grounds for impeachment remain unclear. Under the Constitution, Congress has wide authority to impeach the president, even if he (or she) has not been convicted of a crime. The Constitution’s definition of “high crimes and misdemeanors” is more a term of art than a legal category.

The DEMS don't need no stinkn' crime -to impeach and if the House goes back to Piglosi the first day will be spent on laying out their impeachment articles. The dems disagree with the US Constitution, the electoral college, and the policies of Trump and his administration. GO AHEAD DEMS DO IT - IMPEACH - AND LIVE WITH THE CONSEQUENCES.

“he told the UK Guardian”

Did he also tell them the Brexit vote should be disregarded because the danger it presents to England?

Sorry Tommy. This isn’t North Korea, Cuba or the old Soviet Union. You can’t impeach the POTUS just because he make YOU said.

The fact of the matter is that we believe he is dangerous...

Cowardly weasel words. People use “the fact of the matter” when they are lying. If it really was a fact, you wouldn’t have to preface it. And who is “we”? Speak for yourself, coward.

“The fact of the matter is that we believe he is dangerous to the American people now,”

The reality is, that it should be read as:

“The fact of the matter is that we believe he is dangerous to liberal socialist malcontent non-traditional people now,”

And I say, good that President Trump is on our side and cleaning out the trash!

Understand, a lot of very bad people sunk millions into these races and got nothing. If they can recoup any of that value, they have to try.

They know it is hopeless; these futile gestures seem much more geared towards keeping the mindless base motivated than actually accomplishing anything. They have to counter a lot of negative stuff with the primary rigging, slave treatment of Donna Brazile, etc.

I guess he’s a billionaire, so constitutionally, he can decide when a president is impeached whenever he wants.

It makes you wonder. Here is a man who has billions but feels so desperate he needs to run a campaign to impeach a president that has done what wrong????

My question is what has this guy has gotten involved in that he fears Trump so much because it is not about his money which under a Trump economy is growing and it is not about the little guy getting more socialism and government awful care. So I do not see where the desperation comes in unless he is in a mess.

Tommy Steyer has lots of money.
Tommy wants to buy a government he likes more than the one elected by the people.
Tommy thinks that’s democracy.
Tommy makes false accusations to convince the gullible.
Tommy is pissed because Donny thinks AGW is a crock.
Tommy can go fornicate himself.

Trump really is good for the economy!

The last democrat with money. For now. Maybe his green investments aren’t doing so well, and it is he, not the country, that can’t last another year.
