The Impeachment Thread

[volfanhill]

Maybe they did, but Senator Alexander's statement is something very new to this whole messy process. He is the first Republican in Congress to publicly acknowledge that Donald Trump did something wrong. It is the first defense which isn't the defense that Trump wants - the "perfect call" defense.

Nobody cares. The lines have been drawn.

You ever watch that Making of Caddyshack on YouTube? It was good and as colorful reality as the movie.

I've been shocked by some of her airhead statements before... This one is particularly ego centric and clueless.

I can't understand why they keep giving her a microphone to keep saying dumb things that's not a good look for her or to the Democrats. I guess it's a race to the bottom to see how one can speak dumber things than Schitt or Schumer.

LOL. Trump and his ego will care. He will be attacking Sen. Alexander later on Twitter for not strictly adhering to the defense that he wanted.

I wouldn't put it past the House to impeach again; call this a test run while they wait for more evidence. It won't go away, no matter how much the GOP tries to legitimize Trump's actions.

I agree with you on this one, Mick. The dim controlled house is collectively stupid enough to do it all over again, and prove they learned nothing from the first time. Even kids are smart enough to learn not to touch a hot stove again ... dims not so much.

Yea that’s cute. No one going to jail.

Its not that easy... there is a price to pay for the criminal acts perpetuated by the dims in this shame... lets just sit back and watch.

Libs on Twitter begging Lamar to vote for witnesses

Lamar Alexander's logic behind not voting for witnesses is sound. Alexander is saying that the main allegation against Donald Trump has already been proven, so there is no need for any witnesses to be called or for new evidence to be presented. Alexander just doesn't believe that Trump's wrongdoing rises to the level of an impeachable offense.

 

[AM64]

Can we just accept that neither party has clean hands and move on to solve some problems to make our country better? Impeachment has been a huge distraction to those goals and has been enormously divisive. I turn on the TV looking for news and all I get are "Trump is corrupt" on one side and "Schiff is a beady eyed liar" on the other. I'm done, all right? Let's address some legislative issues for our country.

Let's say we have more than enough legislation for several countries and work on eliminating a lot of it rather than creating more ... a good place to start would be the tax code.

And that's pretty shocking isn't it? He is now free to solicit, using our tax dollars, foreign and domestic election interference and that's perfectly cool from a legal perspective.

Be must see TV...but I'd hate to see the G Man spend his last years in prison for pistol whipping a weasel

I agree thought it was a very well written statement...they should have censured him and declared victory

Hey, a Republican Senator just acknowledged that what Trump did was wrong. They can no longer claim this was a hoax or a sham. Trump did exactly what he was accused of doing. It just didn't justify his removal from office. That is more than I ever thought we would get.

 

[vols40]

Well in fairness that goes both ways. The GOP could have called for witnesses and decided not to. So they can’t be that worried about Biden.

Lol nice try.

We can absolutely say it was a sham because it was a sham

They wouldn't have had a Republican on record acknowledging Trump's wrongdoing if this had ended in December. To me, Alexander's statement is a big deal.

You can't define a word with itself, doofus.

Not to mention her teeth. My goodness Madam Speaker do something with those chicklets.
