    Yet incumbents almost always get reelected.
    The money/bribes/campaign funds are really difficult for challengers to over come.

    Why don't you tell that to Richard Nixon and his hand picked successor Gerald Ford.
    You've conveniently left out that Trump has the highest negatives of nearly any president, and the American people by a majority are stating that they would like to see him investigated and removed from office even while all the evidence and witness testimony has yet to be presented. The economy has indicated a progressive down turn.

    Trump's presidency is seriously far from the norm and dangerous.. He's a pathological liar who claims he's innocent while criminally defying the constitution and the separation of powers by blocking testimony and witnesses. He blocked his former White House Lawyer from giving testimony to the House after he confessed to Trumps obstruction of Justice in the Mueller report. You have seriously misread the situation. For the benefit of the nation, the constitution and Democracy we need to get rid of this cancer on the body politic.

    I took your post at face value and replied to it. Trump's presidency has little to do with democracy, the constitution and the American people. This is an aberration of a President who needs to be expelled and Pelosi's instincts are right on. Besides Trump always has his Republican Colleagues in the Senate who are afraid of Trump and are afraid of his base. Remember impeachment is political a process as well so Trump should look out. The more public sentiment is against Trump and for removing him the tougher the choice for Senate Republicans.

    They do. And sometimes they are doing a good job. And I don’t disagree there is too much money and influence in our elections.

    Dangerous for the corruption in Washington and the biased media. They are fighting hard. They’ve been caught and too many know the truth. Both sides are trying to cover up... we’ll see if they are successful.

    The same old stale cliche B.S. about the press. The facts are piling up and the American people know That Trump is a pathological liar and in defiance of the Constitution. It's Trump who's butt is caught in the ringer. The polls show he's even losing republican voters for the first time . He's considered the least trustworthy President in history. So lying and blocking the testimony and documents` that Congress demands show the Public he's absolutely guilty and has way too much to hide. Why is Trump so stupid that he can't figure this out!!?? Remember it was the coverup that finally killed Nixon's Presidency.. More information about Trumps illicit phone call is coming out every day and it doesn't seem to be stopping.

    I don't think so.
    To deal with the abnormal, one has to do the abnormal.
    But I don't think there is much abnormal going on on the inquiry.

    The projection here is off the charts. I think some people forget Trump is the outsider. The swamp doesn’t like him and want to rid the swamp of him. The swamp creatures are scared because he’s just crazy enough to bust up their party. The only thing keeping Trump from exposing the waste and fraud of our government of OUR money, are some people still believing the government.

    The abnormal is they have not voted for the record and providing the minority with subpoena powers as far as I know. It’s fair and follows the principles as found in our Constitution.

    Nancy won’t ever bring this for an Impeachment vote. When the Senate gets it if she gets the impeachment, it will open up testimony from people who dems don’t want under oath. This is about stalling until the election and trying their best to smear him along the way. Politics. The people suffer, the politicians win. I’m tired of seeing it, and tired of paying for it.

    And guess what will also happen should the house actually impeach.
    The Senate, aka Mitch, won't bring it up in the Senate for a long long time.
    Do you think both sides are playing typical politics?

    The stunning self delusion is breath taking

    More stale cliche trash excusing and defending Trumps attack on our constitution our democracy and the House. He's a moron who is oblivious to the damage he is doing to himself. . But the worst is this idiot has no sense of history or politics. Nixon was smashed because of the cover-up's. He continues to cover up his crimes while claiming innocent. The American people are understanding what a rat hole his presidency is. His cover up tactics are giving Americans reasons to believe he's guilty and he keeps covering up. Trump is a massive cancer on our Country far worse than the so called swamp. You must be oblivious of the news stories showing what a massive butthole this president is:

    https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/poli...krainian-president/ar-AAIAZm4?ocid=spartanntp

    At least four national security officials raised alarms about Ukraine policy before and after Trump call with Ukrainian president



    "At least four national security officials were so alarmed by the Trump administration’s attempts to pressure Ukraine for political purposes that they raised concerns with a White House lawyer both before and immediately after President Trump’s July 25 call with that country’s president, according to U.S. officials and other people familiar with the matter"

    Good, good. Convict them and put them in jail.

    But you hope, somehow they’ll implicate the President in something scandalous... don’t you?

    Of course you do.

    I’m not sure what Mitch would do. I don’t know what options he has once the house impeaches.

    I do believe there are some on both sides that stand to lose a lot if Trump exposes them. There are surely those that think they are doing the right thing on both sides but the corruption is obvious to those not blinded by party.

    Something to think about. Many on here talk about all those around Trump getting caught breaking the law. There have been several for sure, yet none of these crimes linked to Trump. This proves two things to me. 1) They are looking hard for anything to hang Trump on including all those around him. And 2) that through all of the investigation ability of the United States of America, they found nothing on Trump.

    That's not breaking the norm?
    And 1 person's fresh air is another person's stench.

    Of course they do.

    Mitch has already stated what he'd likely do.

    Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell on Monday said the Senate would have “no choice” but to move forward with impeachment proceedings if the House ultimately votes to bring charges against President Donald Trump.

    “I would have no choice but to take it up,” McConnell said in a CNBC interview. “How long you are on it is a different matter, but I would have no choice but to take it up based on a Senate rule on impeachment.”

    There were many around Nixon caught also.
    I have seen nothing yet that would imply a certain impeachment.
    But if there is smoke, fire isn't far off.

    Why are recent polls showing the Majority of Americans want Trump impeached and removed even that of the Fox News poll.. You don't get it. The impeachment process is a political one and as the public turns against Trump the Republicans in the Senate will have to decide if they want to stay with the sinking ship. You also don't get that the polls favoring impeachment and removal are a new devolopment. Trump is a stooge who doesn't know even a scrap of history. Nixon was forced to resign based more on the cover up than the crime itself. So what does Trump do as the polls are turning against his presidency? Lol the stooge goes on to cover up more information. His administration is a rat's nest. Fox's is not the only news poll that shows this. These are the first polls in our history that show Americans want the rats nest removed. A new and most disturbing trend in the sad saga of the Trump presidency.

    Fox News poll: 51 percent favor Trump's impeachment and removal from office

    That is what I figured, but didn’t know for sure. And I don’t think Mitch wants this going to trial either. I think in an impeachment trial more is exposed that hurts Washington than will hurt Trump.

    I don't think until today you'd trust Fox News with time of day, right?

    Why do you all of a sudden trust them with a one-off poll?

    If I was you I would not, and practice to scream to the sky :)

    Why not 90%? Hey, I bet by now Trump is 98.99% certain not to win reelection. Right?

    Of course right. Better buy fireworks :)
