That makes sense, but also, many think it's just a parting fuck-you to the people who voted him out of office. He was an extremely unpopular governor, which is why a Democrat was able to beat him in Kentucky. That race has a lot of people hoping that Mitch McConnell will be voted out in 2020, but as amazing as that would be, it still seems highly unlikely.

I think half of my Twitter followers (mostly Dragon Ball people) have probably muted me at this point because I tweet about politics so much. (Before that, it was the Vic Mignogna drama.) If I can influence even one person, I suppose it's all worth it.

Some of you might remember from 2016 that I am a huge Warren fangirl. I wish she had run in 2016.

Broly is in power. Put it in DB terms to them and they might come on side.

I'm keeping mostly away from the race now, but I have to ask resident americans... what do you think about setting up a 77 year old man as a frontrunner? Are the Democrats expecting to lose the election so they only 'burn' a pretty bad candidate and build up better for 2020? I am, personally, at a loss.

So is he getting impeached then

[Slow Ben]

Happy Impeachment Day everyone.

Here’s hoping they don’t fuck over giving it to the senate.

They give it back to the people who are trying to stop the impeachment process and hope they do the right thing then act indignant when the inevitable happens.

Surely English matters show that giving anything back to the people is, in hindsight, a bad idea?

Not optimistic about this

[TheRetiredBridgeburner]

Six page tantrum letters are such a good look... and I'm not hopeful either. Not when you've already had a Republican senator say that the party will work in concert for the president.

.... do they not take oaths to act as impartial judges? Or do we just forget that kind of thing now?

[Slow Ben]

They do.

I’m hoping they impeach him, but refuse to send articles of impeachment to the senate until the senate sets an actual trial for the process.

Otherwise, let it hang over his head and keep investigating. Lord knows there’s enough to investigate.

A lot of people hope that this is Nancy's plan, but I think her 4D chess is even better than this.

I think that this'll be 1 of 2 or more impeachments that will occur. I think before the Ukraine scandal occurred they were already working on articles of impeachment and the scandal caused them to shift up the timeline becuase of how blatant the crime against he office was...which is why this has only Abuse of Power and Obstruction of Congress as artivles...Pelosi also KNOWS that the GOP heavy senate will be derelict in the trial portion. So they will impeach him and the GOP won't remove him. THEN they will move on to impeach him a second time with some of the articles they were already working on before Ukraine, and we will go through ALL of this in the House again and watch the GOP try to spin THAT. I'm not sure if a 3rd impeachment could be down the road from that, but I truly believe that Nancy is a smart person who is WELL ahead of the curve that these idiots playing Watergate-For-Stupids are operating on.

He won't be removed, but if Nancy can get the house to impeach him MORE than once, and keep that in the news cycle well into 2020 as a result, it could affect the polls AND the health of the Democratic party.

Also, imagine being DJT and having to live with the fact that you were impeached MORE THAN ONCE....LOL. That shit would get under his skin forever.

[Macros]

He would just start screaming witch hunt and desperate democrats.


GOp supporters would lap it up

That's very true, but the stain would be on him regardless. Imagine being the only president ever impeached twice...

Imagine being the only president to survive it.

Goddamit Mac....you're right. That IS how he would spin it.

Sigh. This timeline blows.

[Slow Ben]

Impeached on Article I.

Tulsi Gabbard voted "present". What a fucking coward.

[Slow Ben]

No surprise, Impeached on Article II also.

[Aptorian]

What I want is a second impeachment round for the tax fraud and emolument violations. That's the stuff that really bothers me and I think it would be a better argument against him in the eyes of the underclass voting for him.
