I don't know what I find more disturbing about Leftists: Their desire to destroy this republic, or their propensity to believe passionately in their own idiocy.

At long last, Special Counsel Robert Mueller has submitted his report to the attorney general. What does that mean for Congress — and the question of impeachment?
For 21 months, leaders of both parties have found one consistent area of agreement: the ongoing Mueller investigation provided a convenient excuse to duck, deflect, and delay discussion of impeachment. With each new revelation of impeachable conduct, the bipartisan response from Congress has been that impeachment talk was “premature” until the Mueller report was complete.
That excuse is now gone. The question is whether the House of Representatives will begin an impeachment investigation, or manufacture a new excuse.
There has never been a principled reason to wait. Even aside from the matters covered by Mueller investigation, there have long been ample independent grounds for an impeachment investigation in parallel with the Mueller probe. For example, since the day he took office, Trump has been lining his pockets with federal taxpayer dollars and unconstitutional payoffs from dubious foreign governments. The Framers specifically named that an impeachable offense. He has repeatedly directed federal agencies to target his political “enemies list.” That was part of the articles of impeachment against President Richard Nixon. And, appearing under the stage name of “Individual-1,” Trump directed his personal lawyer, Michael Cohen, to make illegal payments to influence the 2016 election — a federal crime for which Cohen will report to prison in less than two months.

Lois Lerner wasn’t so smug when that conservative reporter confronted her outside her home. Instead of retreating into her house, she ran like a frightened hippo to a neighbor’s front door and begged to be let in because she was being pursued by the vast-rightwing-conspiracy.
Neighbor closed his door in her face.
Absolutely! If the MSM was honest and interested in reporting the news they would editorialize this point. Instead, the protect the crooked Democrats.
PROOF? NONE.
I hope the Democrats take these two whackjobs advice and try impeaching President Trump. It won't end well for Democrats in Washington D.C. OR their supporters anywhere in America.
Agree.
It’s all they’ve got.
Lies and more lies.
I see what you did there. :-)
The Mueller report exposes that the investigation itself was illegal.
There was no crime. The reason for the investigation in the first place was “Russian collusion”. That none has been found means this was a fishing expedition. An investigation looking for a crime that never happened. That is illegal, it violates the 4th Amendment.
All those involved in having it started should be prosecuted.
If they were two year olds we could say they were having a melt down.
Since Trump doesn’t take a salary, we can cross federal taxpayer dollars off the list. They will have to name those “payments from dubious investors” before I believe anything these morons say.
No, no. Now wait. I can see where they’re going with this. It is “clearly” an impeachable moment.
Trump owes property (hotels and resorts and golf courses and other big buildings.)
Foreigners stay at those hotels and big buildings.
Therefore, foreign money goes to Trump because of his big buildings.
Therefore, clearly, foreign money influences all of Trump’s actions!
Therefore Trump must be impeached under the EvilMonuments Act!
(Meanwhile they ignore the 500 millions in foreign money directly paid to Hillary to buy the State Dept, DOE, and DOJ, because, you see, “Hillary wasn’t elected president.”)
IMPEACH FORTY FI. IMPEACH FORTY FI.
Then we will impeach Mike Pence and put Nancy Pelosi in the White House. Great words of Maxine Waters.
If nothing else they can impeach him for eating two scoops of ice cream. Remember when that was the Trump outrage of the day.
The grounds for impeachment were always there: Trump’s inauguration. And according to this imbecile, “the ongoing Mueller investigation provided a convenient excuse to duck, deflect, and delay discussion of impeachment.” And here we all thought the it provided a way of impeaching the president without an actual basis.
CORRECTION: There has never been a principled reason to START.

Trump won because he distinguished himself from typical GOPe types. That’s why he carried States like Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, and Michigan, which haven’t gone Red in decades.
These are the kind of candidates that will appeal to both Conservatives and Centrists and help us win elections.
Only gonna happen if the voting system is cleansed. As it is now the Social Democrats will load the system with more illegal votes than there are registered voters. Every state with a large SocDem controlled city will be overwhelmed with Democrat votes from that city. A city of 100,000 registered voters will produce a million Democrat votes if that is what it takes to top the Republican vote in the rest of the state. Democrats do not care that it will be obvious. There is no penalty for them. The last two elections showed that definitively. Whatever the vote count announced it will be accepted. No one in any official position will complain.
Yes! She needs to be charged, tried, and imprisoned.
