IF only they spent as much time in running the country in a beneficial way for the citizens, think how much they could accomplish. I can’t think of a positive thing Congress has done since Trump has been in office. They’ve been paralyzed from any action other than impeachment.
Sure they do. Half of American voters already support a secret impeachment “inquiry” in the House.
Secret charges. Secret witness. Secret testimony. Secret trial. Secret vote to convict. Secret or false at every single step. The New Democrat way for America.
Impeachment in secret is not a winning strategy. Losers still losing.
If GOP senators go for a secret ballot, then we the people need to make it clear that we will not EVER reelect any of these Republicans!
It is high time for Pres. Trump to get very aggressive and go after these people! He might as well, they hate him anyway.
Collins can quickly be primaried and forced to tack right. If no rules get approved then so be it. Doesn’t seem like much of a threat
The Deep State is resilient, voters are stupid and they have short memories, but I do believe that if a removal were to actually happen, the results for the GOP short term will be cataclysmic. The Senate would go from a majority to probably less than 40 seats after 2020 and even less in 2022. The House GOP would be wiped out. Probably somewhere around Watergate levels of 140 or less.
If this impeachment nonsense keeps them from passing any other legislation, we'll all be better off for it.
And if the Senate coup plotters are very lucky, only the GOP will be destroyed. If they are less lucky, the US will descend into anarchy and civil war.
What has this country come to when everyone in DC can’t line their Swiss bank accounts with self-dealing ultimately paid for by the “little people”? /s
Best POTUS of my lifetime for We The People!
“Impeachment in secret is not a winning strategy.”
certainly not for the GOP, because removal of President Trump from office by the Senate would mean the complete and total destruction of the Republican Party and they all know it ...
so it’s fantasy to believe a secret ballot would remove President Trump; if anything, it gives cover to several purple-state Senators (from both parties) to easily vote NOT to remove ...
however, a secret ballot WOULD finalize the complete, total, and permanent distrust of the American public in the validity of their government
And how many conniving advisors could have foreseen Absalom getting his galant coif tangled among the branches?
The Lord works in mysterious ways!
Freaking hate the House of Bush-Rove and all the never Trumping neo con skunks.
You are correct. The Republicans in Congress are 180 degrees away from their constituents on: the war in Syria, the border, and China. If they had their way more troops would be in Syria, they would back track on border enforcement, and keep caving to China like they have been since Nixon.
So?
I’ve long made the assertion that a large number of Senate Republicans are prepared to give not only their political lives but their own lives to protect The Swamp.
Ping
Then they can launch their 8 year plan to get Trump, Jr out.
The tree of liberty...
