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.

Because they will just move on to the next outrageous thing he has supposedly done. That’s what they do, it would be funny if it wasn’t bought hook-line-and-sinker by 40% or so of the population. Same shit the did to Bush 2 and Reagan. You must be youngster if you don’t remember? It’s the SOS just a different president.

Cardin is as nutty as Warren. Instead of working they are wasting my time doing childish things like this.

Time for me to work for Cardin's defeat here in The People's Republic of Maryland.

President Trump should fire back with a tweet:

"My first act: XO to prohibit Congress from investing in companies that benefit from legislation"

Do they really think America didn’t know he had his empire and it would continue while he was President?

Pray America woke

Pass a law? Where are they going to get the votes? Even if they did what Supreme Court is going to approve of it? Those people are BatSheite crazy in their anger.

Didnt he tweet a few weeks ago that this was already done.

Is this the news? That the dems are writing bills to head off things about Trump that he squared away yesterday? I know I am 3-5 days ahead of “normal”, as are most who are addicted here, but is that the speed that the legislature works at? “In hopes that our bill may become law we throw this useless work at the wall in hopes it will stick.”

Is this what it feels like to lap the field for the first time in 8 years?

Is this what it feels like to be........WINNING?

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

Particularly when the assets are real estate.

Plan A: Voter fraud Nov 8
Plan B: Recount and overturn 3 key states
Plan C: Turn Electors (due to Russians!)
Plan D: Delay the Electoral College
Plan E: Impeachment

Trump wins and wins.

Democrats have no Plan F to stop his agenda: see Contract with the American Voter. It’s going to happen. Unless the GOP Congress fails.

Working on a bill?

That is okay. But do they know it has to be voted on?

“If they are this hostile before Trump is in office, why would he change anything to meet their demands?”

As I see it, the more intransigent the RATs become (particularly in the Senate) the more the Senate Majority “leader” should be about further rules changes that make the RAT Senators a bunch of chair warmers. It is IMPERATIVE that the Senate confirm EVERY Trump appointment, especially the SCOTUS replacement for Scalia post haste. Ditto when that old Capo hag Ruth Buzzy Ginsburg kicks off. Trump has only TWO years to make a major transformation in our government. If he accomplishes that, the 2018 Senate races will solidify Republican control and make the next SIX years a period we’ve never seen in our lifetimes. It will make the Reagan Presidency look insignificant by comparison.
