Republicans would have to side with Democrats in order to impeach. Now, as much as they are inclined to side with Democrats, the GOP would be committing suicide by doing this. The base would be angry as never before.
The party is already on thin ice with voters. This would be the absolute last straw. The GOP brand would be destroyed if they did this. So, impeachment is a pipe dream.
California Congresswoman Maxine Waters has become the leading figure behind the “Impeach Trump” movement over his alleged connections to Russia. But as Rep. Waters makes unproven allegations of Russian influence on American politics, shouldn’t she first look in the mirror and her own “Russian” connections?
Rep. Waters, who’s been in Democratic Party trenches since being first elected in 1990, has called for Trump’s impeachment 25 times in recent months, even though she told MSNBC last week that “I have not called for impeachment.”
CNN reported that Waters is “having a moment” and attracting all the other progressives who didn’t fall for Bernie Sanders’ revolution. Other left-wing publications, meanwhile, suggested she’s “The Millennials’ Political Rock Star” and should even run for president (she has no such plans yet).
It’s a dramatic transformation for Rep. Waters, who was previously on political life support due to a 2010 ethics investigation by the House Ethics Committee for allegedly helping a bank, where her husband had a stake, get federal funds during the financial crisis.
Private groups like Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington (CREW) put Waters on their list of corrupt members of Congress in 2005, 2006, 2009, and 2011. In 2012, Waters was cleared of all charges of potential corruption, but her top aide was charged.
Yet while the California Congresswoman rails against Trump, she hypocritically forgets her very open relationship with pro-Russian, anti-American groups.
Waters has long been a close associate of the radical Workers World Party, a militant left-wing group that has expressed sympathy for anti-American governments such as North Korea’s, Cuba’s, Iran’s, and Iraq’s under Saddam Hussein.
The party also has favorable views of the Russian invasion of Ukraine and of its progenitor, Russian President Vladimir Putin. The opinions of the Workers World Party and its sister groups are often broadcast by RT (formerly Russia Today), a Kremlin propaganda arm. For instance, Richard Becker of a group named ANSWER (Act Now to End War And Racism), an organization started by the Workers World Party, once said on RT air that “Russia is not threat to the US, but to its domination”.
In its own fringe publication, the Workers World Party once blamed European and American “imperialism” for the conflict in Ukraine and called this imperialism “a setback to Russia”.
” So, impeachment is a pipe dream.”
Ummm........No. If they were sane, yes. If they were able to think rationally, logically, and clearly, yes. However and unfortunately that is not the case. Both the Republicans and Democrats have allowed their blind hatred of President Trump, and us, to deprive them of the ability to think. Get rid of Trump whatever the cost is their sole and only goal. They have allowed their hatred to drive them insane. An attempt will be made to impeach and remove President Trump from Office. Whether it is successful or not, remains yet to be seen.
If we were dealing with sane clear thinking, rational, lucid, logical individuals, I would agree with you. Impeachment is a pipe dream. But unfortunately, we are not. Therefore it is best to be prepared for the worse. If the worse happens, we are prepared. If the worse doesn’t happen, we are pleased.
Bingo!!!!!!!! Mass exodus of Trump voters. Voters would vote independent or not all.
