Santorum warns Trump on impeachment: This can't continue

As White House lawyers begin researching impeachment procedures, former senator and Republican presidential candidate Rick Santorum said Friday night the GOP is nowhere near supporting such a move, but warned President Donald Trump that "this can't continue for a whole lot longer."

A person briefed on the matter told CNN that lawyers in the White House counsel's office have consulted experts in impeachment during the past week and have begun collecting information on how such proceedings would work.

People briefed on the legal discussions also revealed that White House officials believe the President has the backing of Republican allies in Congress and that impeachment is not in the cards....

Santorum is anti Trump too? Then Pence must be, as well. Holy crap has Trump sacrificed just about everything to try and save this wonderful country from a tyranny we didn’t even understand and are still owned by. The sacrifice is really too much. We need to back him and make it worth it.

The situation is looking very serious, indeed. Imagine the impact a few well hung politicians would have on the rest of the Washington quislings.

It’s funny how these reporters can lie and lie and think that nothing bad will happen to them for it.

What with the RINO & GOPe leading the charge, the Libs have been empowered.

IF the R&G start backing down they will really (rightfully so) get clobbered by BOTH sides - the Conservatives will be lining up with the LIBS .....

Also - President Trump had better start his heavy lifting - the Comey case should be spurring him along, the longer he waits to ‘drain the swamp’ just gives the LIBs more ammo against him...and they can claim ANYONE he cans will just be getting ‘closer’ to unearthing a ‘scandal’.

The truth doesn’t matter anymore, MSM will just make up crap when they desire.....

More than likely.

The Media should be afraid for their lives for what they are doing. They're not.

“Trump sacrificed just about everything to try and save this wonderful country from a tyranny we didn’t even understand&rd”

This country has not been “wonderful” for a long, long time. Hilliary’s defeat in 2016 was a reprieve from the Almighty as far as I am concerned. One last shot to change our ways. We haven’t and we won’t.

Unborn babies are still being killed en mass in the name of the “women’s right” of abortion. Idoletry is rampant as we worship celebrities and the 0bama’s instead of Jesus. Homosexuality and gender confusion are celebrated and encouraged and is growing in massive numbers. Then so many of us who say we are on Gods side are afraid to stand up for what is right in fear of persecution, loved ones turning on us or fear of losing our jobs (that includes myself).

I can’t help but think our fate here in the USA is that of Sodom and Gammorah. God has given us years to repent and we just get more entrenched in Godlessness. Sooner or later his righteous judgement has to come upon us.

If Trump goes down, it will be the end for sure. Mike Pence is establishment scum and will govern as such.

They had Reagan shot when he wouldn’t comply. GO Trump ! If the Gop comes against Trump I wouldn’t vote for another one.

you hit the nail on the head. It’s not the destruction of Trump that’s the goal - it’s the complete elimination of the Republican party as a whole. Santorum should wake up.

The repubs have never been for the constitution. It’s a party totally set up for the sake of corporate welfare.

Impeachment for what?

Benghazi, Obamacare, Fast and Furious, IRS tampering, not prosecuting Hillary for EMAIL scandal, no real birth certificate, Iranian deal, killing Scalia, open borders,
EPA overreach, 1.5 billion bullets, 22 ammo shortage, and this is what we know of, imagine the stuff blacked out by the compliant democrat controlled media.

Oops not an Obama thread?

Trump has been in for three months, show me the beef!
