Eliminating Trump from being elected again one motivator in impeachment push, Pelosi says
Fox News ^ | 1/11/2021 | Edmond Demarche

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi said in a "60 Minutes" interview that aired Sunday night that one of the motivating factors for some in the new effort to impeach President Trump and remove him from office is to eliminate any chance he has of being elected again.

Last week’s riot at the U.S. Capitol Building has quickly become one of the greatest challenges to Trump’s presidency. Democrats and some Republicans blame him for his overheated rhetoric leading up to the unrest that led to five deaths and dozens of arrests.

So, basically: “Oh, he didn’t commit a crime, or anything. I just want to overthrow him and eliminate him from politics.”

Just seems like more sedition.

Yes. Even if the rubes in fly-over country want him re-elected - screw them.

Kind of moot, since they now control who wins elections.

McConnell has already said the Senate can’t act on this for several weeks. If this is about 2024, why are they rushing to impeach today? Something else is going on.

Does Nancy think she will have a quorum today? If I was a rep and saw the National Guard everywhere I would think about taking a long vacation to a country far, far away.

I honestly think it’s just Nancy’s deranged hatred of Trump that is behind this. By 2024 he’ll be almost 80 and unlikely even to want to run, so this is just a purely symbolic bit of theater of Nancy’s part. The woman is crazy...and everybody in Congress is scared of her.

We’ll have another great candidate in the future. What will they do then, kill him/her?

Maybe for a career politician, this might work.

They want to make sure no one would ever be in favor with him out of fear.

What a pile of horse dung that is...

This past election is by far the greatest challenge that Trump AND this nation has EVER had to face.. And if it isn't fix, this nation won't last for the four years that the hoe and Obiden THINK they have coming to them..

Yes, of course.

When are people here going to realize that we are in leftist-land. The rules of the republic do not apply any more.

If he is already out of office then you cannot remove him from office.

Violates Constitution. Words mean stuff you stupid bitch.

Crazy but not stupid. Doing this now makes her look frightened of something.

Just think of the underlying message here, folks ...

If these people really thought Trump lost this election by a landslide, why would they even need to stop him from running again?
