White House says it will refuse to cooperate with impeachment inquiry

NADA?  They have Trump's former lawyer and former campaign chairman in prison.  They may get his current lawyer in prison.  He may have trouble finding another campaign chairman.

 

Also, Trump keeps making the impeachment easier.  Trump has refused to respond to subpoena's regarding the impeachment inquiry.  Defying subpoenas was the third article of impeachment for Richard Nixon.     https://watergate.info/impeachment/articles-of-impeachment

 

The first article against Nixon also looks relevant to Trump.  Trump has also been fighting in court the release of tax returns and financial information, even though the law is very clear on the matter, and consistently losing.  He appeals after each loss, but will eventually run out of appeals.  Just because Trump has been successful in stalling justice doesn't mean he will succeed in permanently obstructing justice.

 

"The *whistleblower* scam is already being poked full of holes."?  No, but constantly thinking of reasons not to believe the whistle blower report is a popular diversion.  However since the contents of the report have been verified, it's hardly been "poked full of holes".

 

Pardon me for being suspicious, but a newby trying to stir things up by posting and re-posting discredited nonsense strikes me as very trollish.

 

You're right, I should have stipulated NADA on Trump. Remember how the Mueller report was supposed to take out Trump? Didn't happen. Then Jerry Nadler began his obsessive witch hunt. NADA. As far as Trump not cooperating with the current Democrat hysterics, I don't blame him. Enough is enough. Now, if you think you've got something with Trump not cooperating, make your move. It's your Democrats who've failed to do anything but posture, huff, puff and BLUFF.

 

I do find your last paragraph interesting. I am under the impression "World News" is about... well, World News. So of course topics will be commented on and revisited. I'm not sure how the allegations you make against me amount to "trollish". But do feel free to debunk anything I post, since you insinuate it is "discredited nonsense".

GAWD, I grow weary from Trump supporters' misrepresentation of facts. The Mueller report clearly pointed out obstruction and Mueller clearly stated he couldn't indict a sitting president. The instant Trump is no longer president, there is a mountain of criminal indictments that will crash on him and his family.

That's a fascinating response.  So what precludes the House from impeaching Trump? If Trump can be indicted after leaving office, then obviously he can be impeached prior to leaving office. In fact, impeachment is the remedy for a prosecutor not being able to indict a sitting president. Surely you understand this, yes? So what's been keeping the House from impeaching if what you allege is true?

 

But honestly, I can see why you're growing weary. Observing basic facts makes your argument crumble under its own weight as it did above.

 

So how about some more scrutiny of what you just posted? Yes, let's do that very thing. You stated Mueller couldn't indict a sitting president. I've already explained to you the folly in your thinking. You also claim that once Trump is out of office, indictments will crash around him AND "his family"? Well, why can't Mueller indict his family NOW? They're not the president, correct? In fact, indicting the family NOW would give law enforcement the opportunity to pressure them and get them to flip on the president, making impeachment all that easier. Yet, you'd like us to believe that Mueller (who by the way doesn't even know what the dossier or Fusion GPS are, but that's another conversation) is sitting on actionable offenses? Huh?????

I don't recall Mueller saying he had anything to charge against the 45 family.

As far as why not impeach 45 that's a very silly question.

That is happening. The inquiry will be completed and then the house will impeach. That's almost definite. Then it goes to the senate. People seem to think that they know for sure that the senate won't convict but how about we wait and see OK?

The public does not impeach Trump. Nothing about it in the constitution at all. The only way it has anything to do with the public is if the whole thing has been a political kangaroo act from the beginning. Do you ever wonder why congress's approval is always in the teens?  The only thing in the universe Americans agree on.

 

No argument there. They're ALL a bunch of crooks, including Pelosi, Mitch McConnell, Lyndsey Graham, etc. They're all scared about maintaining their position of power, politics over country. Trump has just gone too far, using the administration for his own personal gain. He got caught with his hands in the cookie jar, upset too many people, and will now pay for it.

That's a liberal hit piece copied from the internet, it's everywhere. Every single point has been twisted, greatly exaggerated, manipulated, or is a flat out lie.

That you would blindly copy it, believe it verbatim without seeking the truth is why people complain about liberals being so gullible. It may not be liberals fault, but it is sure a sign of the times. They are also gullible about their political leaders.

 

Deny. I have seen EVERY part of it, it's true. You simply deny the truth.

I wrote that I copied it from a previous poster. That's what you do. YOU used some references you got from somewhere else about the Fox news poll. That's not plagiarizing, it's referencing facts. Again, you can't argue with facts so you deny and deflect here.

Ah yes, I now see where you kinda sorta admit they're not your words. Fair enough.

 

Now specifically, what facts do you think you've presented? That entire rant is subjective opinion. Not only that, it makes claims about what people think and have said that can't possibly be supported with facts.

 

Now, which of these claims you've made against me can you support?

A technical point. Facts do not equal truth. Facts are constancy being twisted, some left out, wrongly combined, mixed with nonsense to tell almost any lie you can imagine. The most deadly lies are half truths. Truth is what you want.

WOW!!! You, Giuliani and Kelly Conway sipping from the same cup of Koolaid. "Facts do not equal truth?" Alternative facts? Pleeeeeeeze!

"facts do not care about your feelings" supports the statement "Opinion is not truth- no matter how hard you want it to be."

With the Fox Progaganda channel providing non-stop support for Trump, and the Senate Republicans putting re-election ahead of country, the House waited for Trump to do something indefensibly stupid before starting its impeachment inquiry.

 

Regarding Trump's family, Trump is using endless court appeals to protect himself, his family, and his business.  However the appeals will run out.  Be patient.

 

Oh wait, you can't be patient.  You and others have to keep screaming "Make it go away" before the legal process catches up with Trump.

Mueller investigated Russian interference in the election and possible criminal cooperation with the Trump campaign.  He found lots of Russian interference.  He did not find conclusive proof of criminal cooperation, but made clear that Trump was not exonerated.  He documented obstruction of justice, but stated that it was state department policy to not indict a sitting president.

 

Trolls post biased, fact-free rants that are often outright lies.  Your posts fit that descriptions.

Prosecutors don't exonerate people- you know, speaking of FACTS. Furthermore, if Trump obstructed justice, impeachment is the remedy for that. Obviously, the House doesn't think there's enough there there to impeach.

"First off, anyone who thought Trump University was a real university is stupid beyond all comprehension."

 

Correct.  And anyone who thinks Trump is fit to be President is equally stupid.  However a large minority of voters fell for his lies, and are still falling for his lies.

I'm glad you agree with me. I'm afraid I can't agree with you.
