The Impeachment Thread

[hog88]

What if he does? Like I said, let's see what he has to say.

...and you are wrong that it doesn't matter what he says. He was on the phone call. This will be the most consequential witness in the entire inquiry for that very reason.

If he says Trump demanded an investigation in exchange for aid, Trump has a problem. If he says what the transcript said but the call troubled him, his testimony is another nothingburger.

As the parent to the child, "no but we are closer than we were the last time you asked."

Not when you guys continually take wrong turns.

Today?

Tomorrow maybe. They have a new guy from Ukraine coming out of the bullpen today.

There have been no wrong turns. Hollering from the back seat "are we there yet" makes for a long drive.

You mean the guy who has served in the United States Army for the last 20 years, and who is a veteran of the Iraq War? Yeah, he is testifying now.

The Muell was a wrong turn.

The Muell was a wrong turn.

No he wasn't. The investigation was warranted and carried out professionally.

“Why has the whistleblower remained anonymous?” - ask Republicans while they mindlessly trash veterans and patriots for daring to speak out against Trump’s corruption.

 

[hog88]

No he wasn't. The investigation was warranted and carried out professionally.

LOL

 

[luthervol]

That explains why you are so soft, as all liberals are. My parents would say: "sit back and shut the hell up before I pull this car over"

By soft I assume you mean that I breathe through my nostrils and do not drag my knuckles.

Sometimes it's painful to do the right thing, if the "whistle blower" thought they were doing the right thing they would endure.

 

[tvolsfan]

No he wasn't. The investigation was warranted and carried out professionally.

And authorized by Republicans.

By soft I mean someone who gets their poor little feelings over a mean tweet or losing an election

 

[tvolsfan]

 

[hog88]

And none of that matters.

 

[NurseGoodVol]

The “transcript” that says it’s not a transcript?

Correct, i wonder if vindeman knows this, in his opening statement said it was available in the public and has been released.

 

[Mick]

And none of that matters.

It means he can't be fired by Trump.

 

[luthervol]

It's more that I just dislike having a horrendously despicable human as the leader of my country. I sort of think more people should feel that way.

 

[tvolsfan]

And none of that matters to Trump supporters.

Sometimes it's too painful to do the right thing so doesn't get done. That's why congress saw the need for laws to protect them.

 

[hog88]

It matters to no one. The only thing that matters is if he heard a demand in exchange for aid. His work history nor his feelings about bipartisanship means diddly squat.

I can agree with this, too bad the "whistle blower" didn't follow the proper procedures to be protected.

 

[luthervol]

Sometimes it's painful to do the right thing.

Like sacrificing 2 extra dollars in your wallet in order to vote against a despicably horrendous person?
That kind of pain?

 

[tvolsfan]

So if he testifies that this did happen, you’re on board with Trump’s removal?

 

[Sandman 423]

No he wasn't. The investigation was warranted and carried out professionally.

So you are satisfied that Trump nor his associates colluded with the Russians?
