Impeachment has as much significance as calling everyone a racist.

AOC and the rest of the tards told us they’ve seen TONS OF EVIDENCE OF ALL MANNER OF CRIMES.

Yet this is all they came up with.

Because the truth is on Trump's side.

And the truth is not pretty for the demderps.

Impeachment puts the truth on national television with EVERYBODY watching.

These people are stupid.

Its a historic defeat for the Democrats. They labored for months over the mountain of impeachment and produced - bupkis.

This has turned out to be the mother of all Seinfeld impeachments. Whether or not Democrats vote on articles of impeachment is irrelevant.

Maybe because even the low IQ’d Democrat supporters can see it’s all complete crap?

The Democrats wanted to divide the country. They have succeeded. One of the unintended consequences is that no one’s mind is going to be changed by any of this. The Dem Trump-haters will hate Trump regardless; the Trump supporters will hate the Dems regardless.

The point is that the Democrat Party today declared war, not on Trump, but on the American people. When the people come to this realization, the best result will be a wipeout of liberals at the polls. Every other result is going to include a greater or lesser amount of violence; I fear it will be the former.

It is not impeachment. It is continuous, unconstitutional harassment of one branch of government by another branch.

Because Trump isn’t going to cower in the corner like the Bushes.

He’s a New York brawler.

They live in fear of their moonbat base. They’ll kick the proverbial can down the road.

Democrats delivered on impeachment. What’s next?

When it is analyzed, it's clear that this impeachment is nothing more than a partisan temper tantrum, and a refusal to accept the results of the 2016 election. Still, it's a shame that Trump has already sacrificed much of his fulfilling life to try to do something great from America, and some people can't help but put him through this ordeal.

Ultimately, this impeachment is really directed at all those who supported Trump, because that's who the Democrats really hate. So, Trump is taking one for the team, and he has earned a great deal more respect because of it.

Besides, EVERYONE knows this impeachment is like "indicting a ham sandwich" (or fried bologna sandwich in my case!). It's a political sham worthy of the movie Duck Soup.

On paper, the speaker of the House and chairmen of the relevant committees announcing they will impeach the president should feel like a historic moment and a rarely equaled disgrace for the presidency. This day should feel momentous, grim, and solemn. In this presidency, it feels like “Tuesday.”

Nixon should have put up a bigger fight. "Watergate" was a phony baloney impeachment too, and should have been treated like the ridiculous joke that it was.

The only real problem Nixon had was that his own party was going to stab him in the back, and were it not for Republican backstabbers, Nixon could have remained, Vietnam would never have turned communist, and millions of people in Cambodia would still be alive.

The Washington Post is responsible for creating this fake scandal in the 1970s, and so far as i'm concerned, the blood of millions of people are on their hands.

The Washington Post is the Mouthpiece of the corrupt, degenerate "Deep State" liars and influence peddlers who get rich off of Washington DC influence and control.

The Washington Post is the biggest rotting fecal component in the entire cesspool that is our capitol city.

“Impeachment is turning into a historic blip.”

Impeachment has now a new category: Being Too Good. Being Too Good for your adversaries to beat you. Donald Trump has ushered in a new category for impeachment. This is historic. Never before has there been someone impeached because they benefited the country so much so that their opponents, in order to compete, had to resort to impeachment. This is not a blip.
