Why waste all of that time on impeachment when the guy has already been impeached and will be out of the white house in the next 2 weeks?

How about our Government does something productive with our tax dollars instead of wasting them on petty ass shit. IIhan Omar needs to grow the fuck up and stop acting like a kid on the playground.

1) If convicted he can't run again.

2) Because criminals should be fucking tried and convicted.

Because he'll pardon everyone involved in today's events if you don't. And be eligible to run again in four years.

LMAO if you think he would ever run again and have any support from the Republican party.

Dems need to move the fuck on from their Trump Hateboners and start working on fixing our Covidfucked economy.

He. Did. It. Once. You. Person.

We just had a mob break into the fucking Capitol, and the Republican Party has been clear that if he has the support from enough people they'll back him all the way.

Thinking "it can't happen again" is the most shortsighted thing when it just fucking happened.

A majority of Republican lawmakers are condemning the White House for today's shitshow. The party wants to get as far away from Trump as possible. It's just common sense man. The people you saw today are the far right fringe while the majority of republican voters are middle class suburban families who just want to live a good life.

How many of them condemned him on the campaign trail in 2016? They don't choose the nominee.

if it were feasible to impeach him to prevent more shit like this happening then it absolutely should be done. you don't kick the can down the road when the can is actively trying to tear you down and succeeding at it.

Lmao political norms about the transition of power is supposed to be what separates us from third world countries. Pretty pathetic to give the president a pass for blatantly flouting them. His enablers need to get punished too.

Part of me hopes that he wont be convicted, and the Republicans dont back him in 2024. If that were to happen, I believe that he would run as an independent, and a large majority of his base would support him, permanently fracturing the Republican Party.

Trump and his base are too dangerous right now where simply letting him run even as an independent can lead to something worse than just splitting the GOP.

sure, but what do you think another round of political impeachment drama would do? we saw it before, it did fuck all, and it would be exactly the same again. all that would happen is both sides would bitch, republicans would double down, and when it failed you'd see random dumbasses bitching about how the democrats failed to do anything again...

here's the truth, there's absolutely nothing that can be done to legally stop trump, at least by the legislature. its theoretically possible that someone in the executive branch could have him declared incapable of fulfilling his job and get him sidelined with the 25 amendment, but i wouldn't hold your breath.

If you still believe what the "other side" does is at all meaningful to these people, I think you're totally clueless.

I agree with you that impeachment wouldn't be successful, for the same reason it won't happen at all, which is just a lack of political will to defend the supposed sanctity of our democracy.

You just explained the legal mechanism they could use, this is a really bizarre spin on the situation. Too much of one political party wants to enable Trump because they care about their own political future more than anything. I don't know why someone would want to pretend they can't do anything

mostly because i've watched the last 4 years and can clearly see that the sitting republican majority in power has no will to punish trump for anything. again, all you're suggesting is that democrats should scream and bitch ineffectually, if you cant see that then i'm sorry man.
