Finally Hunter Biden will be impeached.
Well yeah, he was impeached over lying about a blow job and America knew it was bullshit. This is very different.
It's going to be a lot more than half if given enough time.
Finally Hunter Biden will be impeached.
The underlying scandal was a blow job, so let’s stop fucking around, ok? Republicans got annihilated for their blatantly politically motivated impeachment. Trumps situation is entirely different.Umm, no. He was impeached for committing and suborning perjury. Those are felonies that carry up to 5 yrs fot you and me.

Let’s just take your view for granted. It’s entirely different in terms of how the country views it. Over half thing Trump should be removed and like 70% thought witnesses were appropriate and so was the trial. The opposite was true for Clinton.
I’ll just leave it as we’ll see who’s right.
I imagine that a large portion of those in favor of witnesses wanted Joe, Hunter, Chulupa, and Schiff to testify as well so 70% doesn't mean much to me.
I think the House should have went to court to enforce their subpoenas if they wanted witnesses in the Senate. And I believe a few Reps floated the idea of 1 for 1 on witnesses, but the Dems wanted no part of that. Good PR on their part.
Leave it how you like, but Clinton was still impeached for lying under oath and conspiring with a witness to lie under oath. I voted fot Clinton both times; the facts are simply what they are.

First off, this is completely not true at all. Show me a legitimate stat where 165 million Americans want the President removed.
That is factually untrue. The best evidence is Trump and the GOP went out of their way to prevent witnesses and documents from being submitted. The witnesses the GOP wanted called were irrelevant to the case, so of course any honest attorney wouldn't accept that.And that second part is both sides wanted witnesses called, but the Dems didn't want that to happen because they knew it would blow up in their faces.
Except that 70% of the country doesn't want those folks to testify.
We were talking about history, yes? I think how the country feels is quite relevant.
Sure, and wait over a year to get that settled. I think I'll take Schiff's strategy over your recommendation.
I can't help but notice that is the right wing talking point btw.
Of course. Now continue with the fact that Republicans paid a heavy political price for their error. That's also a simple fact.
And let's get to the real heart of the disagreement here. Do you really think Trump's actions were fine and that history will view him favorably?

Are you saying that asking Biden if his bragging about getting the prosecutor fired could have led a reasonable person to ask if it was corrupt' is irrelevant when they are trying to read the presidents mind?
I am saying the request to put Biden on the stand is ridiculous because the case is about Trump's actions (withhold aid to announce an investigation into Biden) and his abuse of power.Are you saying that asking Biden if his bragging about getting the prosecutor fired could have led a reasonable person to ask if it was corrupt' is irrelevant when they are trying to read the presidents mind?
You don't know who they want to testify. The survey question was "hould the Senate call additional witnesses.
Trump will still be in office so they can/could impeach him then.
Besides the 1 person that went to court for guidence had his subpoena dropped and the judge had set arguments for early Dec. Meanwhile the Dems that were in such a hurry to pass impeachment sat on the articles until late Dec.
In the meantime Schiff walked into the Senate and begged them to do his job for him. Great strategy.
And I don't care what anyone's talking point is - I said that the minute they dropped the subpoena after the judge had anounced arguments would be in 9 days.
Did I say they didn't? I voted for Gore as well as the 2 times for Clinton. Soon we'll see if the Democrats made the same mistake.
I've said at least a dozen times that I don't think it was ok, but didn't think it was enough to remove him from office.
I've also said that I didn't think the House made the case as long as there was an appearance of corruption by Biden.

So you don't know how impeachment works, do you? This comment exposes you badly.
It's the House's job to determine if impeachment should be heard by the Senate, it's the Senate's job to hear the case.
