Top House Democrats on Sunday raised the prospect of impeachment or almost-certain prison time for President Donald Trump if its proved that he directed illegal hush-money payments to women, adding to the legal pressure on the president over the Russia investigation and other scandals.
Theres a very real prospect that on the day Donald Trump leaves office, the Justice Department may indict him, that he may be the first president in quite some time to face the real prospect of jail time, said Rep. Adam Schiff, the incoming chairman of the House intelligence committee. The bigger pardon question may come down the road as the next president has to determine whether to pardon Donald Trump.
Rep. Jerry Nadler, the incoming chairman of the House Judiciary Committee, described the details in prosecutors filings Friday in the case of Trumps former personal lawyer, Michael Cohen, as evidence that Trump was at the center of a massive fraud.
They would be impeachable offenses, Nadler said.

Their stupidity is breathtaking. But it’s a political gift for Trump.

“They have nothing and they know it.”
So does Trump. They better be squeaky clean themselves, eg. the Congressional Hush fund for sexual harassment claims.

Democrats will destroy the United States of America.
This was the goal of Manchurian Candidate Barack Hussein Obama.
And it still is. As long as the idiots keep believing every lie out of his mouth.

Any attempt to overthrow the duly elected President will spell the end of the Republic. Keep your powder dry, you’ll need it sooner rather than later.
