Democrats Make DARING Impeachment Move – Give Trump 2 Choices
ETF News ^ | December 17, 2016 | ETF News

Posted on 12/17/2016 6:46:37 AM PST by Cheerio

Ever since Donald Trump beat Hillary Clinton in last month’s presidential election, liberals have been whining about how “unfair” this result is. Now, the Democrat lawmakers in Congress have launched a sick plan against Trump before he’s even inaugurated that may result in his impeachment.

Right Wing News reported that Sen. Elizabeth Warren is working on a bill that would force President-elect Donald Trump, future FLOTUS Melania Trump, their youngest son Barron, Vice President-elect Mike Pence and his wife Karen Pence to put their assets into a blind trust. This would prevent any conflict of interest during Trump’s presidency while also preventing any political appointee from having any interaction with businesses controlled by the Trump family.

The bill will make it so that if Trump and his family refuse to comply, he will be impeached immediately. However, the president-elect is expected to announce how he will deal with this issue sometime this week.

Warren’s efforts to bring about this bill are supported by Sens. Ben Cardin, D-MD.; Chris Coons, D-DE.; Dick Durbin, D-IL.; and Jeff Merkley, D-OR.

Why can’t he simply put his properties in a “family trust,” like Bill and Hillary did?

But they had no problem at all with the Clinton Crime Family Trust getting 25 million dollars from a Saud prince. Can you say hypocrites? Sure you can.

Memo to Democrats: you are in the minority. You ain’t passing squat. Even if McVain and Linda Graham side with you, it ain’t getting past the House. Anyone with a brain realizes this is all grandstanding.

They can’t force anything. They don’t have the votes to pass squat.

Another example that clearly shows that DemocRATS could vaporize tomorrow and America would only benefit from it. There would be no loss to America.

Why wait until Inaugeration? Start the Impeachment hearings NOW.

Then, identify who might someday be a Republican President, and start Impeachment on some 12 year old boy from Kansas.

You know you want to.

So they want to make up rules after he’s elected? Why didn’t the rules apply to everyone else?

This POS bitch can eat #%&* and die. She is the reason we have to DRAIN THE SWAMP.

They’re in no ways interested in doing anything to help the American people. It’s all about playing politics to gain power.

Uhhhhhh, a question from the back of the FEMA Re-Education Camp?

Wouldn't this bill have to pass Congress first or has Fakeagewea be imbued with some sort of Congressional super-power?

I'll see myself to the delousing shower first and take my answer off the air.

In fact, you leftist freaks should start Impeachment hearings on every single man, woman, and child in America.

Then if one of them tries to become President for the Democrat side, you can say, "This is OLD NEWS."

On the other hand, if one of them tries to become President for the Republican side, you can say, "There's no way he/she should be President! They've already been impeached!"

I thing their best strategy is to just Pre-Impeach him, so he’ll never be able to take office. Just get it over with.

Surely now The Donald shall be worried well into the late evening hours. < /sarcasm >

Where do these people get this stuff? Business interests only need to be set aside for the period of time any President occupies the office, and any judgment calls that do not directly favor those business interests to a greater degree than ALL similar interests are favored, but based on transparent and unbiased decisions, should not be held against the greater good.

No such thing as a truly “blind trust” is plausible or even possible.
