What Trump supporters think of impeachment
The British Broadcasting Corporation ^ | October 11, 2019 | Lauren Turner in Minneapolis

President Trump is fighting back against an impeachment inquiry by taking his counterpunching style on the road. What do fans at one of his rallies make of the scandal?

"It's the first time I've worn my cap downtown," confesses Jake Biehn as he waits for President Donald Trump's rally to start in Minneapolis, a city currently run by Democrats.

If he worried about standing out in his Make America Great Again baseball cap, he needn't have been.

The centre of the city is a bobbing sea of red and white. The slogan is on t-shirts - along with Women for Trump, Pilots for Trump, Cops for Trump. There are Star Spangled suits, a MAGA onesie, badges proclaiming Magasota, with Mr Trump's profile (and coiffed mane) imposed over the outline of the state of Minnesota.

You wouldn't think all this was for a president at the centre of an impeachment inquiry, holding a rally for the first time since it was launched.

If anything, it has galvanised the thousands of supporters some of whom queued for days to be at the front of the Target Center crowd when he stepped out to a rock star's welcome.

Dan Nelson, 36, says he was the first in line to get into the venue after waiting for three days - and was right at the front for Mr Trump's appearance.

"They're just making stuff up," he says of the Democrats. "He's starting to fight back."

It’s a coup. Nothing legitimate about it. Waiting for the POTUS to tell us it’s time.

There's nothing legitimate about it at all, from a legal or Constitutional perspective.

Democrats are testing how easily they can strip someone of their Constitutional rights and persecute them. If they can get away with it against a sitting President, you and I are sitting ducks without a prayer in hell. Fortunately, it's backfiring big time.

The media still doesn't understand why either. Dumbasses.

“[The Democrats] want to erase your voice and they want to erase your future.”

Exactly.

The allegations against the Bidens have been widely discredited.

No, actually they've been denied repeatedly in the media, which is nowhere near the same thing. The BBC here has, however, at least actually asked Trump supporters what they think instead of the usual MSNBC/CNN approach of telling them what they think and then damning them for it. If the BBC sounds like a breath of fresh air you know how bad it's gotten in the U.S. media.

BBC, the British government funded propaganda machine, could unscrupulously support Dem candidates during presidential elections in America,

and it’s not foreign meddling.

Yes, and the regime that is about to fall is underpinned by spineless RINOs. Can you hang a jellyfish from a lamp-post. Can you tar and feather gelatinous blob? Can your tie it to a rail or does it just ooze off? Important questions for patriots to come to terms with.

I notice the article doesn’t allow for comments.

They don’t want to show how against this public opinion is.

Just another propaganda piece.

There is a app called 'Dissenter' that let's you comment on any accessable website. It is from Gab.com , the free speech alternative to Twitter.

What Trump supporters think of impeachment

It's the first step to civil war and the left will be extinguished, unless the other Leftist nations of the world intervene and then... Poof!

I learned something about the leftwing flagburning gungrabbing babykillers- they don't hate Trump, they hate US.

Right now, George W. "Chimpy Boy" "Monkey Face" "Shrub" Bush is being rehabilitated. Where he was the object of leftist hatred and derision from 2001-08, now they love the guy

Remember "Ronny Raygun" "The Amiable Dunce"? Now, even the Left "reveres" him.

As soon as Trump leaves office, all the leftist babykillers will suck up to him once again, wanting to be invited to Mara Lago.

If they think Trump is an evil troller, just wait until America has President Mutt the Hoople.

"Gutless" would imply that Washington Republicans actually agree with us. Most of them are closet gungrabbing babykillers, just as eager to destroy America and enslave its citizens as your average Democrat. They just pretend to love America and Americans because that's how they keep getting re-elected.
