Impeachment Megathread Part 3

[Sir Mohamed]

The impeachment is going nowhere anyways, the fix was in the House, because Chris Matthew's protects Hunter Biden. So, calling Fox news a biased network, isnt right, because Chris Matthew's cant even moderate debates due to his bias towards the Biden. Its backfiring due to Bloomberg and his ads helping Bernie

What in the hell are you talking about?

The R senate, without a whistleblower,  isnt removing a sitting Prez, whom have a job approval rating, where Obama and Bush W were, and has a 3.5% unemployment rate.

Just like Ds refused to remove Clinton in 1999 with a boom economy

Dems didn't control the senate in 1999. Unlike then, the prez hasn't a 60-65% approval rating either. And I don't know what impeachment has to do with Bloomberg ads supposed to help Sanders? Which is a wild theory backed up by no evidence anyway.

[Sir Mohamed]

Support for impeachment is actually increasing...

That will neither affect the floor vote in the senate nor the outcome of the 2020 election. GOP senators do what their (ignorant) constituency expects of them, and these polls haven't moved among the GOP base. As for the election, turnout in certain states and counties will decide its fate.

[Sir Mohamed]

After the Parnas interview, no sane person can claim that Trump is innocent. It is as simple as that. I know that it won't matter, but it really is as simple as that.

This was already clear as day before, but congressional GOPers have no backbone and only care about their jobs instead of the rule of law. They will continue to deflect, distract and lie to get this thing over as fast as possible.

So much for the "Trump did it, but it's not actually criminal" defense.

The GOP defense will now be one of these: Either the GAO is a liberal hoax, filled with Obummer loyalists or, yes, it was not legal, but not a big deal anyways. And Mr. Trump didn't know what was going on.

[Sir Mohamed]

This so called trial is a shame and unworthy of the "most deliberative body". Since Mr. Trump was not convicted anyway, an unfair process may hurt GOPers because almost 7 in 10 Americans want witnesses to testify.

[Sir Mohamed]

WH just reminded Senators that USA is a representative democracy and that voters watch closely how Senators represent them during this Impeachment Show! ))

Then I guess they support electing the President by popular vote.  Cool.

And that in all recent polls 50% more of Americans want Mr. Trump impeached and removed from office. Not to mention, in the newest CNN poll nearly 7 in 10 want witnesses.

[Sir Mohamed]

Don't be an idiot.  Hunter Biden is not relevant to Trump's misconduct in this affair; this is an attempt to deflect (by Trump, his supporters, and you).  Bolton has relevant knowledge of what was going on; Biden does not.

How so? It has literally started the whole Impeachment.


President Trump is claiming that the Bidens conduct in Ukraina was suspicious enough to ask the President of Ukraine to investigate it. I'm incline to agree with Pr. Trump, but the Bidens has of course the right to clarify what the  Hunter was getting paid for?

I'm damn sure, you'd be interested, too, if it was Pence's son working for, let's say, Putin's Gazprom...

Come on, Mr. Trump was never into caring about corruption in Ukraine. What else has he done other than singling out the son of a political rival? This whole thing is nonsense and it doesn't take much to see through it. Trump didn't even care whether there was an actual investigation in Ukraine. All he wanted is an announcement that makes the Bidens look corrupt to improve his reelection chances. And after he got caught by a whistleblower, he released the aid previously held back.

After all, there is not even evidence Hunter did something wrong legally. He only cashed in a ton of money, which he shouldn't have done from an ethical perspective. And Mr. Trump is the last person on earth to accuse anyone for being greedy.

Let's hope so. I think it will be the usual suspects (Romney, Collins, Murkowski), and at least one of Portman and Alexander. Potentially Lee.

Probably not Mike Lee (R-UT).  Just a couple of days ago, he blamed Trump's impeachment on the "deep state" (Source:  https://www.sltrib.com/news/politics/2020/01/24/sen-mike-lee-blames-deep/).

Thanks for sharing. After he sharply criticzed the Iran briefing by the Trump Admin and coming from the same state than Romney, I thought he may show a little backbone here as well. I was wrong.

Hunter can't tell why aid was withheld, which is the central argument of this impeachment. He wasn't in the WH at the time, but Bolton was. GOP hacks are trying to distract from the real issue here because their case for Trump is so weak.

[Sir Mohamed]

What happens in a 50-50 vote? Would Pence be called in? Or is the motion outright defeated? Or does Roberts have the final say?

[Sir Mohamed]

GOP goes through 5 stages of Trumpism:

1. It's a total lie, never happened, fake news

2. Ok, it happened, but isn't a big deal

3. Ok, might be a big deal, but it's not illegal

4. Alright, it's illegal, but Hillary and Obama blahblahblah, so it's ok.

5. Get over it, libtard, you're just a sore loser!

It worked out perfectly fine after the Mueller report didn't produce a smoking gun. He bribed a foreign govt the day after to get dirt on an opponent. Mr. Trump will be emboldened after the acquittal, that's for sure. If he feels his actions have no consequences, he'll do it over and over again.

TBH, I wouldn't be surprised if he again does something impeachable right away in the following weeks and months as we get closer to the election and he's feeling the heat coming from polls that show him tanking.

[Sir Mohamed]

Trump's gamble to expose Biden payed off, the dude finished 4th in Iowa.

Ugh, Biden's weak performance has little to do with Ukraine. Biden's campaign lacks excitement. No surprise he doesn't do well in a caucus with less favorable demographics.

[Sir Mohamed]

Applause for Mitt Romney. At least he stood up against a lawless prez who abused power for his personal gain. He will be on the right side of history, while all the GOP enablers who voted to acquit despite evidence clear as day will be on the wrong side of history. They will be remembered for failing to stand up for the constitution and turned the so called "world's most deliberative body" into a laughingstock. The precedent set today, set by spineless politicians putting their short term political benefit over the rule of law, will make it much harder to hold any future prez, regardless of party, accountable. Their horrible precedent says, prez can do anything he wants because impeaching would "overturn an election" and "piss off his voters."

[Sir Mohamed]

Watching this clown giving a rant in the WH after being introduced with "Hail to the Chief" really upsets me. The moment when you would like to walk in and tell him that he's a disgrace to the office and that he should go back into his fake golden tower.
