I agree and I think one of the reasons the Dems are trying to get this impeachment frenzy going is to try to derail or delay the Barr investigations.

It’s counterproductive, because it’s true, this is hardening support - even among GOP elected officials.

"I always said I would crawl across 100 yards of broken glass to vote for Trump. Now I would crawl across 100 miles of broken glass AND drag a few more voters with me to get Trump re-elected."

Speaking to many people I know that voted for Trump in 2016, and more than a few who didn't, and I'm hearing similar. Some concede he is somewhat of a megalomaniac. They don't care. Some say he isn't very "Presidential". They don't care. Some say he isn't very articulate. They don't care. Some say he is brash, rude, unpolished, immoral, maybe even a little crazy. But none of that matters to them. What matters to them, is that he is standing up for the USA, for the economy, for the forgotten people, for borders, for the military, for democracy, for capitalism, and for the best interests of ALL of the country, not a few "special people" with loud voices. They are ALL voting to reelect him.

Speed up this durham Barr investigation, we need indictments NOW! This is war

That is exactly what the democrats want to be able to point to. They are doing this impeachment, so when the grand juries are impaneled, witnesses are subpoenaed, and indictments are filed, they will sing in lockstep that Trump's DOJ was giving payback for the impeachment, and that none of the allegations against democrats are true. It's Trump abusing his power again.

I would advise against cheer-leading Barr/Dunham.

“his friends, several of whom are black, feel the same way and are fervent Trump supporters.”

My niece is married to a black man, who was a lukewarm Trump voter in 2016. His family rabidly despises Trump. Anyhow, today he is an evangelist for Trump, sparring all the time with his family who MUST vote RAT because they’re black. He said he had been a conservative all his life, but he just didn’t know it. When my niece discussed attributes of both parties point by point, on each point, he identified with conservative values. Logic took him to where he is today.

A guy who worked for me once quoted that warning, “If erection lasts....4 hours, contact your physician”. Then he added, “Dang right I will. Ya’ hafta brag to SOMEBODY”.

Because of the Democrat majority the partisan impeachment inquiry passed despite bi-partisan objections.

In other news the witness testimony affirmed there was nothing illegal about the Ukraine phone call by Trump disputing previous hearings.

These cases are total freedom of speech hypocrisy by the LGBT activists’ agenda.

No one is impinging on their free speech rights, not even the private print shop owner that won’t promote their message for them. They have any number of alternatives to that print shop and that print shop is not the government and not carrying out a government policy against the LGBT agenda’s free speech rights.

Let’s remember the heart of the meaning of the Constitutional amendments concerning freedom of speech and freedom of religion IS NOT about your control of what speech you will promote, but about the government not being allowed to abridge your freedom of speech and religion, and about the government not being allowed to force you to be the mouthpiece for speech of someone you don’t agree with.

On the other hand, the LGBT activists agenda IS seeking for the government to enact a policy, by judicial fiat, that would deny the free speech and religious freedom rights of the private owners of the print shop. They are part of the Left’s attempt to morph the legal understandings of our freedoms and rights from restrictions against government control to the use of government to control their opponents.

This was not a mistake post on your part. I was on the print shop topic and then when I went to the comments ended up here. Glitch in the Matrix I suppose.

I was a lukewarm Trump supporter first time around, but will vote with much more enthusiasm for him the second time.

Honestly, I don't think Trump has lost a single supporter since gaining office.

Everybody who says they used to support him and no longer does is a lying sack of liberal who thinks they are being strategic and clever.

So the anti impeachment was bipartisan. (Republican and Democrat voted against)

The pro Impeachment was purely partisan (Democrats only and not even all the Democrats)

I point this out because if it has been the other way. Even one Republican siding with the Dem. The media would be singing to the hills about the bipartisan vote

The AOC wing of the Democratic Party essentially forced Pelosi into this mess. I doubt Pelosi In many of the other older Democrats wanted to go down this route, however they were basically forced into it and now must deal with the consequences.

That won’t change in any of the other votes either. The republicans should just stop. Deal with it in the Senate.

And thats really BIG NEWS that us not being reported: The radicalization of the Dem party. The MSM has not reported it because they are a part of it.

In many ways the Trump so called impeachment is secondary.
