This guy needs a serious beating.

If you ever heard some of the horrifying info about him circulating certain web sites you would have nightmares.

If Schumer wants to pretend you can impeach a President after he has left office and the rest of the liberal left want to play along, then it would seem the Senate would have to be treated as it was while President Trump was in office. IOW, Republican majority.

Blumenthal said on “CNN Newsroom” that the evidence of Trump inciting the riot is “pretty open and shut” given his speech and tweets...


And yet they never quote the speech or tweets that allegedly inspired the ‘riot’. You’d think they’d be bombarding us 24/7 and yet they don’t and haven’t. I wonder why that is?

Let’s impeach Obama....and Vice President Biden.

C’mon, someone in the House should do it.

Yeah, I know there is one out there now for Resident Biden, Commander in Thief, but I want one for VP Biden.

What’s also stupid is to think New Englanders and West Coasters are fellow Americans.

Despite of where we live, we are more American than you will ever be.

At this point who gives a rat’s ass? What’s the point? Let ghem get on with it. As a matter of fact I will cheer them on. I’d love to see them:
- impeach a citizen outside of the constitution
- by what amounts to a bill of attainder
- by lies and corruption of the evidence
Yes, yes, please, please do it.
Prove you are exactly what we know you are - a corrupt and illegal regime.
In the end, ignore them. They can splutter and gesticulate all they want. But, what they can’t stand is to be ignore. If 75 million people ignore them, what are they going to do? Put us in concentration camps?
I hope they proceed with all this phoney-baloney bullpuckey. The more they persecute Trump the bigger martyr he becomes. Like we used to say when I was uoung, “If they can’t take a f*ck, joke ‘em.”

Another reason they want him impeached s so he will not receive daily security briefings that all ex presidents get.

When is someone going to go nose-to-nose with these assholes and challenge them to prove that Trump said ANYTHING remotely provoking violence? And throw down a $10,000 bet to prove it.

Furthermore, when is someone going to announce to Congress that Trump was still speaking when their thug friends broke into the Capitol?

These two items are not that complicated... even for some gutless bastard in The Stupid Party.

Under what authority can the Senate hold a trial and potentially convict a private citizen?

Didn't you see the Pollutico article from earlier today? 150 "Constitutional Scholars" - INCLUDING, get this - many members of the Federalist Society all have written a letter, and concluded that yes, a "former" President can indeed be tried and convicted.

Personally, I believe it's total BS and vehemently disagree. But their reasoning is that the purpose of Impeachment is not JUST to remove the President, but to ban him from ever running again. Therefore, in their (twisted) logic, a trial is "totally" appropriate, since if you only focus on the removal, you miss the other reason that the Founders including ban of political office as a penalty.

The whole thing stinks to high heaven, and even WITH EVIDENCE the "assault" (what a joke, but let's run with that) was PRE-PLANNED, these morons think we're not going to pay attention to the facts and will let this farce be played out. How wrong they are.

Folks in those regions don’t particularly embrace the American values I embrace.
