Weve never had an impeached president running for a second term. Might Trump step down to avoid putting the country through this ordeal? Knowing what we do about him, theres no chance of that. The 2020 race will be a fight to the death.

Can (or will) the two parties get the madness cycle under control?
One side cant do it by itself and the other side seems not to care about the consequences
If we cant rely on law enforcement to be the referees (and it seems that we cant)
and
If we cant depend on the legal system to mete out appropriate consequences for clear violations of lawlessness (and it seems that it doesnt)...
...We are going to be left with taking matters into our own hands either singly or in small groups at each and every new insult.
The longer we wait, the farther down the list will be the entrance level at which the conflict is joined.
Brit refers us (links) to the “Washington Examiner” article
“The Great Divide” from October 17, 2019
https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/opinion/the-great-divide
THESE are the times that try men’s souls. The summer soldier and the sunshine patriot will, in this crisis, shrink from the service of their country; but he that stands by it now, deserves the love and thanks of man and woman. Tyranny, like hell, is not easily conquered; yet we have this consolation with us, that the harder the conflict, the more glorious the triumph. What we obtain too cheap, we esteem too lightly: it is dearness only that gives every thing its value. Heaven knows how to put a proper price upon its goods; and it would be strange indeed if so celestial an article as FREEDOM should not be highly rated. Britain, with an army to enforce her tyranny, has declared that she has a right (not only to TAX) but “to BIND us in ALL CASES WHATSOEVER” and if being bound in that manner, is not slavery, then is there not such a thing as slavery upon earth. Even the expression is impious; for so unlimited a power can belong only to God.

It galled me to see Pelosi, Schumer and Hoyer storm out of the White House meeting last week and then use the backdrop of the White House itself to register their insults to the President.
In the future, I hope Mr. Trump will have them escorted back to the Capitol (through a secret entrance, if necessary) where they can spout off to their little old hearts’ content.
He hasn’t been impeached.
So the question is moot.
Great observation.
In this age of instant communication, however, we may only have days and weeks, not months and years, before the other side’s ‘grievances’ fester into rage and require a response we are loath to perform.
The crisis is just outside the door already
Mr. Trump tried much too hard to get along with his “loyal” opposition right from the start, unfortunately.
But he did often admit that things were much worse than even he had imagined.
Kim Clement said he wouldn’t be impeached. - That was a couple of years before he even ran for President.
Innocent until politically maligned.
Hume says “The president may need to step down if he is impeached in order to avoid putting the nation through this ordeal.”
What ‘ordeal’, Brit?
Most of us have become accustomed to the New Normal of democrats in a permanent state of tantruming rage over losing the election. This bratty hysteria is nothing new anymore.
You must know, Bret, that no matter which republican is elected, this will be their response to some vague degree.
I hope your first priority is not still ‘Let’s make the Dems happy again!’. They will never be happy until you are unhappy.
If the president is impeached by this ship of fools, it won’t change my plans for Election Day. I shall vote for Trump again, and I don’t give a hoot about any ‘ordeal’ this sends the Dems through again. The very thought actually gives me great pleasure.
Brit Hume.
Failed.
bret is a POS, he has always been a never-Trumper.
Great Point
I am concerned NOT with the occasional ‘unhappy democrat’,
But the thought of a herd of ‘psychotically unhappy & armed’ democrats moves up the “Check-my-ammo-supply” up a few notches on my to-do list
Can someone give me answers that will take this gut wrenching unfairness which wants to turn to anger.. over what is happening.
Seems there are too many who take this as normal and don’t get upset.. they predict... and I want to know on what grounds they are predicting? and I mean raw real honest goods...what? how? this is America.. I’ve lived here for so many years.. and this beats everything I’ve ever lived to see.. it’s unreal.. it’s against all we did stand for.. and the stuff that gets a yellow to green light.. is beyond my belief in America. There is black and white.. the constitution spells it all out.. then there is a gray area.. of which has grown with people who try the system and for more people who don’t care and let them try the system.
This impeachment is totally wrong.. there are no grounds.. yet they are doing it and the talk I hear is “gray area words and acceptance”.. no black and white.. where is the black and white that used to be our creed and our laws.. what happened that a nut case.. smutz. can do this and NO ONE is stopping him.. it goes through like it’s normal.. for God’s sake.. the man they are prosecuting is the only honest and good man in the bunch! and NO ONE is stopping this... the evil they are.. the evil bunch are doing this to a good man.. he’s my President.. we elected him.. where is the law? where is the attorney general.. where is anything that makes sense!!
I understand the government before Trump... was corrupted.. for a long time this has been going on and anyone who was anyone.. had to either overlook or join. it’s world wide... it’s a take over of the systems of the world.. for complete control.. and there will never be another election here.. when the left gets their control back. there will be no hiding anything. it’s in the open and this nation will be sunk!.. my grandchildren will never know the world I knew.
This is must be close to the end of time.. for it can’t go on with no nation to keep the peace.. and all hell will be loose..
I think God gave us one more chance with Trump.. and now look what they are doing to him.. it reminds me of how they did not accept Jesus and crucified him rather than have Him around... such stupidity we have here.. and ugly ugly evil has become an open sore that will fester and burst on everyone.. and we let them do this to our President.. they are all corrupt and dangerous.. and we let them take out a good man who is trying to save our nation.. as we sit and watch TV and rest our assets...
Other questions:
so far all Nancy and Shifft have done is talk and talk...
lots of innuendos, slanders and lies...
but there is no impeachment
do they dare try it?
maybe not, because it will still fall flat on its face
in the Senate
and all their secret machinations will become revealed
Who r you!
The largest army in the world gets into their SUVs, cars and trucks and goes to work every morning. Their weapons are in gun cases, rifle racks, studies, rumpus rooms, attics, garages, storage sheds and basements. Their officers and NCOs will be selected when needed. No army on Earth would have a chance against them.
The thoughts you expressed deserve your own vanity thread...
I’d hate to see them buried in my thread
It is a fight for the country between the globalists and the nationalists.
Brit Hume is a globalist.
