GOP senator hopes impeachment will be 'instructive' for Trump
Fox News ^ | JANUARY 26, 2020 | Andrew O'Reilly

Posted on 01/26/2020 1:15:31 PM PST by Hojczyk

Sen. Mike Braun, R-Ind., said on Sunday that he hopes undergoing impeachment and the trial in the Senate will “be instructive” for President Trump.

Braun’s comments came during a contentious back-and-forth with moderator Chuck Todd on NBC’s “Meet The Press,” where Todd told the Indiana lawmaker that Trump "is going to take acquittal and think, 'I can keep doing this,'"

"No, I don't think that," Braun replied. "Hopefully, it'll be instructive."

"I think he'll put two and two together," the Indiana Republican added. "In this case, he was taken to the carpet."

Mr Trump is surely learning who the bad guys are.

Exsqueeze me, Sen. Braun? “Can’t keep doing WHAT?”

1) He was totally set up on a phony hoax “muh Russia,” then you morons allowed them to even have a trial on this perfectly fine Ukranian issue.

2) So he should stop having phone calls? Or stop doing foreign policy?

3) How about if we stop doing SENATORS.

I fully get how people at first were not upset with Julius Caesar. These elite snobs just utterly hate us.

Braun was on The Judge Jeanine show and sounded very much on board with his party. Might be that he’s two-faced. Have to keep an eye on him.

As has been common throughout President Trumps’ time in office, the cockroaches continue to expose themselves to daylight.

Upchuck baited him into saying this. He was arguing Trump has to be impeached or he will do this again. Braun was pushing back against that.


Braun is a noodle spined former Democrat Senate back bencher. He is rarely heard from and never “pushes back” against anything.

The lesson to be learned is to heavily investigate ALL fraudulent use of US Aid by the recipient gov’t and any US hangers-on milking it for personal gain.
= = = = = = = = = = = = =

Hopefully that is what he is referring to and also hoping that PDJT has learned to strike while the iron is hot, if ‘they’ treat you like an enemy, don’t try to ‘reason’ with them, when slugs like HRC & BO are open to investigation, don’t play ‘footsie’ with them, DO YOUR DUTY as the President of the United States and bring ALL the criminals to justice, no matter which party they belong to.

We all know that the main reason they ALL seemingly hate PDJT is because he will (HOPEFULLY SOON) turn the light on ALL of them and get this mess cleared up.

As has been said before,

This Congress has been wasting their time and OUR MONEY, investigating a Billionaire that became a Politician while they should be investigating life long Politicians who became multi millionaires while ‘serving the Public’ on the PUBLIC PAYROLL.

WTH is Brawn talking about.

What is it that he and Todd, the putz, THINK PDJT did wrong that he should LEARN from it.

PRESIDENT TRUMP HAS NOTHING TO LEARN, HE DID NOTHING WRONG AND I AND MANY OTHERS HOPE THAT HE CONTINUES TO ACT AS HE HAS FOR THE LAST THREE PLUS YEARS.

OTHER THAN THAT...GOP SENATORS SHOULD STAY OFF TV.
THEY HAVE NO IDEA HOW TO BEHAVE ON CAMERA.

Todd got what he wanted...a GOP saying that PDJT had a lesson to learn

WHAT LESSON??????

FU dummy! All of this BS started before the election by REPUBLICANS with their sniveling #NeverTrump mantra and Klinton adopted it. All of them wanted him impeached the second he was elected.

Can Keep Doing WHAT ?

Leading the Country out of the leftist quagmire?

Belittling a Attempted Coup By Leftist Bafoons and Criminals?

Not ‘that their fraud should be ‘Instructive’ to democrats ‘ ????

‘Nitwit Braun’ is the least condemnation possible here.

This guy from Indiana is an obvious nitwit. Republicans are such a limp dick nitwits. They are so fuckless at times. Did they ever think they might fight back as the Republican president is being harassed by these traitors and lying about everything.

[He seems pretty solid on his wiki page so his comments on Meet The Press don’t make any sense.]


People have egos. And ambitions. You can bet just about every politician in the country, Republican and Democrat alike, thinks he could do a better job than Trump. That’s ego for you. Braun was just taking his ego out for a walk. That quote was his ego doing its business.

True, never so glad to see Donnelly beaten, but geez, Braun needs to wisen up. He’ll be a one term senator with lunacy like that.

The lesson to be learned is to restore the rule of law so these liberals don’t keep getting out of control.
