HA! LESSON: When modern democratic-capitalism is confronted by stupid cult-cabal capitalists, it rises with alarm --to signal the threat to the state itself. Expect traditional capitalism to point out aberrant capitalists who--for greed and/or stupid ideologies--threaten democratic capitalism.
Impeachment now would draw news coverage away from his misdeeds, and ultimately would fail anyway. And it would give Fox News the opportunity to frame him as the victim of the radical leftists blah blah blah.
More people every day in R districts are losing Forest Service jobs, veterans' and retirement benefits, access to Soc Sec offices, and farm-export trade. The tariff fiasco will start to make food and other retail shopping miserable. We'll see if D's are the only ones on the attack as that unfolds.
Attack the T administration while it is punching itself out?
Point out their faults yes, but we need to embrace more than attack.
We need to acknowledge that the people in these districts are disillusioned and offer them and everyone a better way.
Carvillian "punching itself out" predictions, like all nonrigorous predictions, have zero value. And the prudent course with this danger level is action, not inaction.
If I was at all unclear, my sympathies are with everyone, R's included, damaged by this admin.
If Trump drew attention to it by repeatedly calling it the “radical leftist, failing” Wall Street Journal, the base might notice. He’s awfully skilled at delegitimizing traditional conservatism.
Democrats’ wimpiness pisses me off, but my point is that Fox News will NOT call for Trump’s impeachment.
Impeachment + charges of crimes against humanity and democracy prosecuted at the upcoming 21st Century version of the 1945/1946 Nuremberg Tribunal Trials at the new National Criminal Court. Proof beyond reasonable doubt is not needed because the evidence is all out in the open.
While we are at it, it’s legit incredible to watch the Wall Street Journal OPINION section be ahead of the New York Times and Washington Post, not to mention a bunch of quisling law firms.
In any other administration this would already be moving.
Signalgate would be cause for the removal of the DoJ and Intelligence heads. Trump did nothing.
Trump has kidnapped people from American soil.
Trump ordered his distractors be investigated by the DoJ.
All impeachable
Really? What could the Dem’s possibly do to make impeachment a viable course of action? They don’t have a majority in either house of Congress, let alone the super majority required in the Senate to make it happen. The GOP owns this.
The R's hold the House by a few votes. In Trump impeachment 2, ten R's voted yes. In the Senate, 7 R's have signed on to a tariff-limiting bill in the past week.
As the wheels come off, holding the R party line will be hard. Impeachment is needed to break through.
President Vance would be dramatically better for business than President Trump, not least because Congress would feel no compunction about checking him.
In many ways, our system works best if the President is uncharismatic and unpopular, but unfortunately the electoral process selects against that.
Are you paying attention at all?
Your so busy trying to be clever with your post - may be more clever to stay informed
Democrats have demanded impeachment & presented articles of impeachment
And 5+ mill of us mobilizing to protest to OUST this dictator wannabe have been demanding impeachment

Call out bad faith arguments and move on.

It’s the number one newspaper all the elites in the GOP read everyday.

Let them pile on. Draw attention to it.
But of course that’s why he picked this cabinet…they would never do that.
Thanks Dems for helping put them all in place!!
A majority of US Senators voted to remove Trump, TWICE. Just not the 2/3 majority required.
Signalgate would be cause for the removal of the DoJ and Intelligence heads. Trump did nothing.
Trump has kidnapped people from American soil.
Trump ordered his distractors be investigated by the DoJ.

Something they have literally never even bothered attempting before.

We’ve been here twice before.

And there have been zero impeachment articles introduced since Trump was sworn in again.
