The Democrats’ impeachment announcement was sad, pathetic and weird
NY Post ^ | December 10 2019 | Michael Goodwin

Posted on 12/10/2019 11:37:00 PM PST by knighthawk

House Democrats made it official — they will vote on two impeachment articles. But as history-making events go, the announcement was extra weird.

The decision was expected, yet the way it unfolded was strange. Speaker Nancy Pelosi obviously put out an order requiring her team to adopt a sackcloth-and-ashes pose for the cameras, as if they were attending a funeral.

No high-fives, back slapping and smiles today! Gotta pretend we’re not enjoying this!

If it were not so sad it would be funny. The Donald says it is funny. It does make me smile to realize the dumb bells are putting themselves out of business.

If I were one of the thirty-on (31) Democrat Party Moderates or remaining Blue Dog congress critters...there would be no way in God’s world would I ever cast my vote to impeach, POTUS, Donald J. Trump.

Why? Your opponents are going to tag you openly hanging around with, & doing the evil, hateful, bidding of two “Coast, EAST & WEST” Jewish Radical, nutcases, Nadler & Schiff, and a Speaker of the House, Nancy Pelosi, who claims to be a devout Roman Catholic...but loves and adores, aborting, slaughtering, innocent babies in the womb or out of the womb. The three of them hate the USA with passion. Your opponents have tons of cash...you have little....vote to impeach POTUS, Trump and most of your careers are over before they even stated....do what you will, fools. Is Pelosi, Nadler & Schiff worth losing your seats?

If I was one of the 31, I would preemptively come out and say, “I will vote no. If Pelosi attempts to pressure me in any way, I will become a Republican on the spot.” Easy for me to say, though, as I’d rather piss off a rabid hippo than be a Democrat.

The only impeachable crime was committed by Joe Biden, but who cares?

They are voting to impeach the President to cover for Joe Biden’s crimes. Just like the Russia Collusion investigation was to cover for Hillary’s crimes. Only this time, instead of ignoring it, Congressional Democrats are actively covering it up.

Or they could simply say that this whole thing is a witch hunt and it is wrong the way the rat party is treating Trump and they refuse to be associated with such a lie and farce........never happen though. Congress rats pretend to follow God. But they don’t. You know, that Bear false witness and all. The rats truly hate America.

Abuses of power and obstruction of Congress. Just don’t look too closely at the details because you will find nothing of the kind in them.

Seriously....you have got to question the independence of all thirty-one of these Democrat Lap Dog Moderates & Blue Dogs. Only an babbling idiot, moron & buffoon, would have not have understood from the very beginning of the political death destined...”Impeach Trump”, fiasco!!! These 31 fools should go to Pelosi and tell her, “Take a walk...you made this mess, you give up your seat...I’m not giving up mine. You Dems better get in gear and take a good look at the Trump machine...”Organization and Money Flow. You Democrats are getting wiped out. Just remember Dem deadbeats everytime Trump holds a rally and 20,000 people attend, the Trump GOP has another 20,000 army on their record...which will be used to raise money and campaign support. Pelosi has nothing...and Schiff & Nadler cannot go anywhere where, because they come from, failed, California and New York cannot raise money, worth talking about!!! Pelsoi, lousy Speaker of the House...period!!! Dems.....not too bright!!!

Fact: The current Democrat Party is committing self-inflicted political suicide...by its own hand. At least three Democrat Senators will be voting “No” on the Trump Impeachment gig...Joe Manchin, Doug Jones and one other Democrat Senator. Manchin wants to run for Governor in West Virginia and Jones wants to keep his Senate seat in Alabama....where he now must beat Republican, Jeff Sessions who is leading the polls by 28%!!! Face it, Nancy Pelosi has not been a good guardian over her Democrat Party, House caucus....like Obama, she only cares and lives for herself!!! You Dems better wake and smell the trees...Trump is coming for Nevada, New Mexico, Minnesota, New Hampshire, Maine, Virginia (Big Time)...and...Trump has the money and the staff organization he needs to do just that.

While Joe Biden runs around campaigning in a old bus attracting 50 people per stop & babbling about the blod hair on his legs...Trump gets 20-50,000 People at every one of his massive rallies!! Wake up Dems...you got “Zero” leaders...period!!!

I have been laughing at the reporting of this in Australia. Any of the left wing reporters I have seen trying to explain these proceedings has stuttered like someone with a speech impediment. Even they are perplexed at how this is even a thing and seem flummoxed as how to explain it!

So little to show for it. If you’re going to kill the King, be sure your hit your target.

Trump is standing stronger than ever. Impeachment is a dead horse and a dead horse can’t hurt your enemy.

Democrats are the clown car gang that couldn’t shoot straight. Geez.

The two “articles” are pretty much an admission that the President has committed no high crime or misdemeanor.

Article one: President Trump is an orange poopoohead.

Article two: He dared to refuse to cooperate with our effort to frame him.

And that’s about it.

Pollak at Breitbart has a line-by-line demolition of the Articles.

The Orwellian Dems have never actually read Orwell and The Articles are full of thoughtcrime. Trump sought this, Trump intended that, Trump undermined, etc.

The easiest and most devastating way of taking even more air out of the Dem balloon would be to ask individual members seemingly anodyne questions such as: ‘What section of the Articles do you believe is the most grave?’

Since they probably won’t have read them and certainly had no hand in writing them, if they fall to generalities it will be proof they haven’t.

The President was actually impeached when the dumocrats took over the house, they just needed to put something in writing to legitimize it. The vote is just a technicality IMO.
