Drive-Bys Push Impeachment All Weekend
Rush Limbaugh.com ^ | December 10, 2018 | Rush Limbaugh

Posted on 12/10/2018 7:30:06 PM PST by Kaslin

RUSH: Let’s go to the audio sound bites. I want to first start… Here, grab sound bite No. 3. We put together a montage here of the Drive-By Media pushing impeachment all weekend, and what this is… I mean, this is designed to do exactly what I have been warning everybody was coming. They’re trying to dispirit you.

They’re trying to make it harder for you to verbalize your support for Trump. They’re trying to make you doubt him. It’s all about driving his approval numbers down to the thirties. It’s about making you think this is a lost cause. “Trump can’t survive. He’s either gonna be impeached or he’s gonna be indicted — and do you want to support somebody like that?” Here’s the montage:

ARTHEL NEVILLE: Will Democrats look to impeach the president?

CHUCK TODD: Let’s go to this issue of impeachment.

LAWRENCE O’DONNELL: Donald Trump will be, must be impeached!

CARL BERNSTEIN: They are the kind of offenses, uhh, that would call for impeachment.

GEORGE STEPHANOPOULOS: … may be grounds for impeachment.

SAVANNAH GUTHRIE: … the prospect of impeachment.

MAX BOOT: This is, in fact, one of the reasons why you have the impeachment clause.

MARGARET BRENNAN: …adds up to meet the standard for an impeachable offense?

AL SHARPTON: Should the president be concerned about the talks of impeachment?

HOWARD DEAN: If we’re going to impeach Donald Trump…

TOM LLAMAS: … the drum beats from Democrats for possible impeachment get louder.

KIMBERLY ATKINS: … if House members find impeachable offenses, it is not just the right thing to do. It’s their duty.

JOHN DEAN: The House is going to have little choice other than to start impeachment proceedings.

RUSH: What are they talking about again? They’re talking about the Michael Cohen plea deal in which it is stated that a prominent candidate directed him to make payments to two women for their silence in violation of campaign finance law. It is not a violation of campaign finance law. If it were, there are 264 members of Congress vulnerable to charges.

Seventeen million has been paid out of a slush fund of taxpayer money to women who have accused members of Congress of sexual harassment or abuse. These are private contractual arrangements with nondisclosure agreements. There was no intent to avoid campaign law or any of the such. And they’re just running around talking about how, “Well, we could indict. We might indict. It could be an indictable thing. It could be something we would impeach over.”

Look, they can impeach over anything if they want to try. And that’s why they’ve gotta get the numbers down. If they get Trump’s numbers down to 30% they’re gonna impeach him for the way he blows his nose! And they’ll come up with a way to call it a high crime or misdemeanor. They can impeach for it ’cause impeachment is a political act. It’s not criminal. And there’s no way that they’re gonna impeach in the House if they can’t get the votes of two-thirds of the Senate for a conviction.

And the only way they can do that is if they get the numbers down to 30 or lower. And if that happens, there won’t be an impeachment. Somebody from Republican Party will go to the White House and say, “Mr. President, you’ve lost all support here. We can’t guarantee that you would survive an impeachment. We think you might just be best advised to quit,” which is what happened to Nixon. Which is why you are hearing this term unindicted coconspirator. This goes back to Watergate.

The Watergate Seven were charged and indicted with the crimes that occurred during Watergate. But because the DOJ has guidelines saying you cannot indict a sitting president, they couldn’t indict Nixon, and so the special counsel named Nixon an unindicted coconspirator. Where did this come from? Strictly a term designed to drive down public opinion.

And you’re hearing that term begin to trickle out now about Trump. Not about Russian collusion. Not about tampering with votes. Not about anything that this started out to be. Nope. This is about supposed campaign finance violations, which are not that.

The Democrats intend to try to bring down this Presidency.

By any means possible. All while Manchurian Candidate Barack Hussein Obama and Crooked Hillary help work the puppets from behind the scenes.

MSM staging a coup, using Trump hate as their narrative.

While it’s obvious that the sorozNazi DNC commie types are desperately trying to prevent PDJT from Draining the Swamp— and that they’ve pretty much succeeded for two long years- alas!—— they’ve also made complete raving lunatic aholes of themselves. Individually and the lynch mob of them as a group. Self- destruction on a mass scale.

Based upon the recent resurgence of the #neverTrump Cruzbots here, I agree.

Big Media has them smelling blood in the water — again.

This is what happens when you don’t drain the swamp. Of all the things to go soft on.

I don't buy this assertion.

There are 22 republican senators running for reelection in 2020. If Trump is removed from office all 22 need to be defeated.

I want to know why RosenRat STILL HAS HIS JOB.

There is something VERY SINISTER going on and I don't think ANY of us have any idea what that is. Perhaps the word 'EXTRATERRESTRIALS' might come into play, however. NOT joking. Too many good Republicans have gone BAD, such as Sessions. Something VERY odd is happening and it's literally OUT OF THIS WORLD.

They’re all excited at Yahoo by Carl Bernstein.

They are nothing more than Non-Player Characters.

I hope you’re right. I’m still in a funk from Maine going blue.

Rush mentioned this today. There’s a big disconnect between the republican base and the republicans in D.C.. They don’t see the republic in danger. And I don’t think they have any ide ho much the base hates them. If Mitch doesn’t keep his caucus together, that should it for republican party.

I’m afraid Assassination is one of their options. They are capable of anything.

It’s more clear by the day that we’re dealing with unadulterated Evil.

“The Democrats intend to try to bring down this Presidency.”

They don’t need to because his Presidency has already been nullified by the corrupt state, both parties, corrupt courts and fakestream media, but that’s not good enough for the dems, they want him gone now—Impeached, convicted, removed and arrested. His family put in prison, too.

Those attempts have been many but not reported in the derp state MSM.

look at some of the alt media- you will see they are there.

I as many others pray for God’s protection over POTUS & family.

Think about this one: remember when POTUS stopped off in Scotland this past year? Remember the SS agent who suddenly
died on duty?

According to my sources this patriot took the hit .

A very unsavory tale.

I hadn’t heard about the Scotland incident. Thanks.

I also pray daily for him and all his allies in this war against evil.
