GP ^ | 10/22/19 | Jim Hoft

Pelosi is planning on ramming through an impeachment vote against President Trump by Christmas in the US House of Representatives. They have no crime defined but they are determined to find one in their secret meetings.

The US Senate would then take up the impeachment proceedings.
Tom Fitton says McConnell should reject this coup attempt outright.

 

On Tuesday Mitch McConnell said he will sit down with Senator Schumer and have a conversation on how to handle the proceedings.

Mitch McConnell is against Trump and his voters.

There is nothing to map out. There has been 2 impeachment trials before and they were over in a matter of DAYS. Andrew Johnson’s impeachment trial was over in THREE DAYS on 11 articles.

They are talking as if this will go on for WEEKS. This is BS!

Now why would it be necessary to announce this event unless the SOB is subtly trying to legitimize the process? It’s this kind of deliberate, gratuitous RINO behavior that’s so contemptible. Pray for our President who has few, if any, supporters in Deep State D.C. Most are more than willing to take a cheap shot whenever they get a chance. Clear, this is a cheap shot by McConnell when he knows Pelosi’s star chamber is an utterly Fascist action by the House. He should have treated the illegal process with caustic derision.

Agree 100%. My family is done with the GOP post Trump. We are not slaves on the GOP plantation. The GOP does not own our votes. Adios, China Mitch.

The last illusions are crumbling from in front of my eyes and I can see clearly, as so many others have before me, that the e-GOP and the Democrats are absolutely committed to destroying Trump and whipping us mangy voters back to our kennels so they can continue to rule the country in their preferred and accustomed manner.

I’m sick of it all. Nothing will ever change.

There is a 60 million man army out there, a good number of whom can shoot fairly accurately. A lot of their "territory" is where the food comes from to keep the coastal elites well fed.

A sham impeachment, despite interference by the media, won't sit well.
In other words, if a sham impeachment 9ccurs, the Antifa antics to date are going to look lame. And once the ball starts rolling, the political equivalent of Bill Maher saying "just kidding" isnt going to stop it.

If you sell out our duly elected President, you will deal with Deplorables and irredeemables“

I don’t think so. Most GOP voters are sheeple who will take whoever is handed to them. That’s how we got mccain and Romney as nominees

I don’t trust McConnell.

I was fine with his handling of Judicial appointments. But I think he is up to his neck with Communist Chinese money.

“I think Mcturtle has this right”

I saw an article the other day saying Mitch had a meeting with fellow Senators or something like that — Mitch had powerpoint slides — serious strategy stuff maybe.

Either Mitch or a reporter said that moving impeachment forward a few notches would be good for the election prospects of a number of Republicans up for reelection because they need to show they are open minded regarding what Trump might have done and would like to see evidence made public.

Team Mitch is a wicked stain on the Republic. He has to be told that if he sells us out, we will hold him accountable.....

I can wish he would tell schumer, ok the trial will be closed, no dems allowed in the secret trials and the dems may not present any evidence or call any witnesses.

Not gonna happen but thats what we have so far in the house of clowns.

You didn’t ask me, but I’ll state what I expect.

mcconnell is there via an election and via voters who he is supposed to serve. Did he ask the people if they wanted him to sit down with the left side and the side that is going outside the legal line.. outside the constitution.. and not asking what the people want.

If mcconnell wanted to do something good for the country.. do a shut down of the media. They are not the press.. they are the advertising arm and the propagandist arm of the left socialist democratic party. they lie to the public.. they make up their “news”.. they put a fire and brimstone video of a fire some place else and tell the public it is in Syria and it’s Trump’s fault.
They all are treasonous and our gov used to not tolerate it... today, they ARE IN IT..

Somewhere along the line of U S politics.. the introduced a “gray” area where the right persons doing what they consider important... can do anything and get a pass.. and in the process.. get as many conservatives as you can and ruin their lives.

This is a gray area that needs to be stopped yesterday! and until they follow the constitution.. shut them down.. show the spine you used to have way back in 1700.. it’s gone and the people are the last to be served..

LOL- do you read the articles?? Or just go into seizures looking at the title??

“McConnell sidesteps my question on if Republicans are afraid to criticize the President for fear of retribution. Turns on several occasions to how Democrats are handling the impeachment process: “I think the President has a legitimate question about the process”

McConnell on how a Senate trial would work: There are all kinds of potentials..we’d have to come to grips with how we’d deal with this

McConnell on how a Senate trial would work: If this were to come over from the House, Senator Schumer and I would sit down and have a conversation about it...The balls and strikes, if you will, are called by the Chief Justice

That’s exactly what is going on here. McConnell is fluffing his favorite sure loser RINOs like Gardner.

That millions of Trump voters are disgusted with the GOP and will likely never vote straight party ticket again due to this type of GOPe behavior doesn’t concern him one bit. Why the GOP has a death wish I will never understand.
