The Time for Impeachment Is Here
Rolling Stone ^ | APRIL 19, 2019 | Jamil Smith

Posted on 04/19/2019 2:29:49 PM PDT by conservative98

Think about what happened here, about what is described in that report. The country’s elections were attacked by a foreign power. Russia is a vote suppressor. Understanding that,what motivation would this President have to move a finger to stop them? Or the Republican Party, for that matter? Theonly hope for accountability, perhaps before a court of law after Trump isno longer President, is theDemocratic Party that has the power to start impeachment proceedings.

Should Democrats take impeachment off thetable, they would let Trump get away with it. It is that elementary. There is no guarantee that he will not repeat the very same encouragement of those Russian efforts, all the while playing dumb so as to avoid legal culpability.

If Democrats were smarter,they would understand that initiating the impeachment of Trump might actually galvanize their base because it would demonstrate that leadership was willing to take the obvious, the logical and the constitutional step once presented with such an abundance of evidence. They would grasp that the visual of their party standing up to a president wedded equally to corruption and to his assortment of bigotries would be appealing to an electorate where black voters are increasingly driving the conversation.Democrats would seize upon the Mueller Report as a flashpoint for organization and recruitment, rather than take the task of prosecution that the Constitution assigned to Congress, hand it off to voters and call that “democracy.”It is up to us as citizens to choose our elected officials, not to do their jobs for them.

All this anger from theseearly Democratic soundbites, I do wonder where it is going and whether it will ever find a more productive home than a cable news segment or my inbox. Impeaching Barr for performing as Trump’s defense attorney would be a good place to start

They couldn’t even invent a high crime or misdemeanor, but point out there was an abundance of evidence without referencing a single fact. Talk about a star chamber.

Bush laid on his back and peed into the air, for eight years.

Led the rats to think all they had to do was pile stuff on, totally made up bull, and eventually the prez would succumb and slink away.

They "misunderestimated" big time this time.

Also, the majority of the country is wise to their bull.

I really don’t think Democrats can sink any lower. There’s a bottom to all this corruption somewhere.

The Democrats are growing more and more desperate and hysterical!

The more TRUTH threatens their delusions and the closer TRUTH comes to casting its light on Hillary and Obama, the more panic overwhelms them!

The left is doing exactly what it promised. They have no interest in defeating Trump at the ballot box.

******************
The election was held in 2016. “This President”....The last time I looked Obama was president in 2016.

So is the columnist referring to Obama?

The Russia Collusion connection was all Hillary, Obama, and Brennan. After all it was Hillary’s darling that sold MIR technology to the Red Chinese. It was her illegal server that had a pass through to a foreign government.

They have been in the Socialist/Communist Camp for ages, as is half the US Congress.

She wasn’t supposed to lose. Talk about a one note opera, orchestrated by the Left.

If a civil war comes out of this then I intended to remember Jamil Smith.

Yessss. It is good to have lists like that. Just in case mind you. "Prepper" is not a dirty word.

Why post this garbage? This is the same author who suggested Trump was abusing the first Lady! What did you stand to gain by posting this?

They blame President Trump for what Obama fostered.

Keep your ammo dry.

Same reason you respond and post his picture. People don’t just like to respond to stuff they agree with. I can post pro-Trump positive articles and they get no comments.

The moron ignores the fact that Queen Putt’s Regime knew of it in advance and did NOTHING because they assumed Felonia von Pantsuit would win.

Rolling Stoned wrote fake stories about ‘rape’.

Grasping at relevancy.

Until Democrats are finally investigated there is no justice in this nation

the Democrats simply run the show for whatever both crap they want to and get completely away with it

at least 63 million of us are we’re awake enough to see it in the bottom line is is Trump is going to kick the crap out of whoever is running next time and will probably take over the house and

it’s time to start weeding out all the bushes 100% of them all those cucks that are wavering and pissing their pants

Our a great and wonderful president Donald J Trump defeated both the Clintons and the bushes and an illegal scam by Obama

we can never ever forget that for when he put on the line to do it we have to defend this guy not 100% but 1000%

I know I’m preaching to the choir here

They go trying to nullify an election and, as was said on Hannity last night, 63 million will rise up. The dems have pushed impeachment ENOUGH. The hammer is gonna fall and then they can witness the depths of their parties’ corruption.. for the world to see..

Hurry and open that pit of snakes..clean house..
