    Trump is hanging because he gave congress the rope to do it. Trump extorted the President of Ukraine and demanded a favor before giving him much needed defense missiles to fight the Russians who have already gobbled up a section of Ukraine and made it their own. In fact this rats nest of a presidency is still withholding much needed missiles from Ukraine. Our foreign policy doesn't allow Presidents to exchange much needed defense packages for personal favors such as digging up dirt on Joe Biden a political rival for Trump. And Trump the stooge is losing more and more support by claiming he's innocent while at the same time denying Congress' Constitutional right for documents and testimony. on the phone call. Not to worry because more witnesses are coming out who were alarmed by Trumps extortion tactics. Lets get rid of this cancerous rat's nest.

    The way PsycoTrump is sinking he could probably loose the election to Pavlov's dog.

    Because it's not one poll,. The fact that Fox News is showing Trump circling the drain is merely the icing on the cake. It means that conservatives are sick of the lying scheming rats nest. Trump doesn't get it but the more he withholds information from the House the more guilty and desperate he looks. He's flailing in quicksand and most of the evidence hasn't come out yet. This is a new trend in polls and the idiot keeps doing the one thing that Americans don't like. Denying the House its constitutional right to demand witnesses and documents. In short cover up, cover up, cover up. It makes things worse. Just ask Nixon.

    No and no to both questions!

    Furthermore there is nothing in the Constitution or the House Rules requiring any "full House vote to start".

    (Edited because I misread the questions.)

    Why is your BLOTUS obstructing witnesses that he appointed?

    Is he afraid that they won't lie to Congress for his benefit?

    Why are you blaming the media for ACCURATELY REPORTING all of the LIES that your BLOTUS spouts on a daily basis?

    Your BLOTUS lied when he took his Oath of Office because he has FAILED to uphold the Law of the Land.

    So yes, that probably counts as lying under oath.

    Nothing at all to do with Nancy because the BLOTUS only gets to call witnesses when the Impeachment TRIAL happens in the SENATE!

    Always amuses me when those defending the indefensible wrap themselves in the flag so tightly that it cuts off blood flow to the brain!

    Impeaching your BLOTUS is UPHOLDING the Constitution and the Rule of Law and if he is found not guilty them sobeit but he doesn't get to break the law WITHOUT having to deal with the CONSEQUENCES just like all the rest of us.

    How will you deal with a Dem POTUS enlarging the SCOTUS with liberal justices to negate the GOP court stacking malfeasance?

    Lying about a consensual blowjob does NOT amount to an impeachable misdemeanor offense justifying removal from office so it was NOT that serious an offense given the ENTRAPMENT by Starr.

    The BLOTUS is WASTING our money just like all of his fellow swamp critters.

    The only difference is that your BLOTUS is an INCOMPETENT LIAR as opposed to the rest of them being PROFESSIONAL liars.

    Indeed, you do. A long thread about impeachment polling is coming soon, with tons of data. Perhaps you can learn something. Education is really quite helpful at removing ignorance. Tikkun Olam, Bro, Tikkun Olam*

    *Tikkun Olam is a principle in Judaism; the Hebrew means so much as committing good deeds without expecting anything in recompense. I can heartily recommend that everyone practice a little more tikkun olam in their lives. Olam means, quite literally, the world. Tikkun Olam means, quite literally, to repair the world.

    If you are referring to the current proceedings in the HOR, then your last two sentences are incorrect. The impeachment inquiry in the House of Representatives is not, I repeat once again, is NOT a jury trial. It is far more like a grand jury gathering evidence in order to decide whether to indict or not. When the grand jury indicted John Gotti (yet another mob boss, nöööö), they did not ask for his participation in examining his own crimes. The trial happens in the Senate and there, the accused will have the opportunity to defend him-or-herself. Nancy Pelosi has nothing to do with how the US Senate would conduct a trial, so your reference to her in your last sentence is a non-sequitor argument.

    This is the way is works, clearly outlined in the US Constitition. The ignorance on display by many people all over the place concerning an issue that is so easy to read about is --- astounding.

    Now, should it be that you are simply angry because you don't like how the House of Representatives is doing things, I will remind that the current HOR adopted the exact rules of the House before it, which was a GOP-majority House. If you are angry because you don't think that the BLOTUS is getting amply opportunity to "defend" himself, he will get his chance in the Senate. Were I on that side, I could possibly understand your anger.

    Honestly, were I Trump's attorney, I would take his Smartphone away from him and tell him to completely shut his mouth until this is all over, because literally every time he opens his mouth, he is only making it worse for himself and often, quite literally, in real time, he is adding yet another potential article of impeachment to the document when it is done, or strengthens a point that is already being made against him. Apparently, the BLOTUS went to the school of Boxing where his coach said to him, "look, little Donny, when someone throws you a left-hook, lean into it, mkay?!?!?". It just doesn't get much more stupid than this. Even many of his most ardent supporters, when interviewed, have indicated in no certain terms that he shouldn't tweet junk and also no speak junk.

    This will not happen. McConnell cannot delay a Senate trial. The Chief Justice of the SCOTUS takes over the proceedings and as the, according to the Constitution, designated chairman over the proceedings, has de facto the say as to when the trial begins. Roberts is a pretty straight shooter. Once the impeachment vote goes through, I suspect that the trial will begin shortly thereafter. Wait and see.

    We are talking about the guy who has personally forced hundreds of taxpayer dollars to go to his own privately owned companies, right?

    Trump is "Individial One" who directed Michael Cohen to commit a felony.

    This is a political battle, not a judicial one. The congress people aren't going to get the documents until they start behaving better.
