    it matters for the history books imo - the house needs to impeach regardless if the Senate does, and the Senate votes also need to be a part of history

    when repubs vote again impeachment it sets the precedent that future Presidents can do what Trump has done... and republicans can't say a word

    Give it up guys. It is not working. Have you no shame. Trump will repeat in 2020. The dems need a great candidate for 2024 who will straddle the political road or they will end up as an asterisk in the history books.

    No, this thread was started because it is just another hate Trump thread. Well, all they got was another drive through nothingburger.
    Somewhere in my mind's eye, I envision all the malcontent lefties desperately clinging to the shards of manufactured drama created out of thin air by MSNBS and CNN. At some point in time, I would think they would realize how tired the average American voter is of all their shenanigans and how much damage they have done to their cause.
    There never was a more apropos quote said than Winston Churchill's famous, "Success consists of going from failure to failure without loss of enthusiasm."

    Come on man, you know as well as I do or at least you should this is nothing but a show for the Dems rabid base. They gave nothing and they know it so they will give a proforma performance and try to keep this busted meme alive until after the election. Then if Trump wins they'll quietly **** can the whole thing and if the reps take back the house not only will it be **** canned Naddled and company may well get censured for their jackassery.

    You repeating wingnut media talking points is not going to get Trump off the hook. "Rabid" left or not, the guy is a criminal. And he will either respond for his crimes, or you and the rest of his supporters will be responsible for having forever transformed this country into a "banana Republic" type political system.... With my apologies to most banana republics.

    You'll never guess what happened. Stonewall......the mantra of all Trumpette's.

    ‘It Was Just A Rant’: Lewandowski Stonewalls House Judiciary Democrats

    https://talkingpointsmemo.com/news/dc/lewandowski-democrats-house-judiciary-hearing

    "He stonewalled Democratic questioning by asking for a copy of the Mueller report for him to refer to, by slowly searching for the page being alluded to, and by declining to read key passages, suggesting that his Democratic inquisitors read them instead."

    Cory acted like a petulant pissant.......which is sure to earn him the admiration of The Following (which is why he did it)......just like his old boss the Obstructor-in-Chief.

    I'm confidant in saying never has there been this degree of refusal to cooperate with congressional investigations by any admin in the history of the country.

    If I were Congress, I wouldn't let him even have the possibility of a pardon. Congress has the legal authority to directly enforce their subpoenas. There was a time when they even had their own jail to hold people who were being charged with contempt, and the President can't pardon contemp of Congress.

    Therefore, they should reopen their jail, and arrest any Trump loyalists who refuse to testify. Won't be able to help them.

    If you are suggesting something similar to what is happening now, a claim of non-existent blanket privilege in order to justify not cooperating with any request for documents or testimony, happened during the Obama admin.............all you have to do is prove it.

    Well... he wanted to run as a Trump cultist in a state that Trump lost! Besides being dishonest and a creep, he's not very smart.

    Illegal server and 14 black berries under subpoena destroyed, fast and furious gun running scheme everyone refused to testify, IRS, Lois Lerner refuses to testify. FBI exonerates Hillary before she gives testimony without ever being sworn in.

    Trump's and lots of other GOP candidates' campaign speeches are writing themselves these days.

    "Do you want your Congress conducting empty partisan witch hunts or tending to the many problems the U.S. is facing as a country?"

    They never learn. It's like giving a nine foot tall man a basketball and he still figures out some way to miss the basket.

    I'll be glad to. What would you like to know? Trump has committed criminal acts and has shielded himself from responding to them by surrounding himself with corrupt officials: AG, Secretary of the Treasury, Senate majority, Supreme Court,.... If this continues our Constitution will have failed to provide checks and balances and we will be at the mercy of a dictator.

    Read the Mueller Report.

    Which, BTW, Levandawski today declared under oath, and very reluctantly, to be completely accurate. Which means that not even the most psycho of Trump's sycophants can deny his crimes when questioned under oath.

    Read the Mueller Report.

    The Mueller report didn't say Trump committed any crimes.

    Try to keep up.
