He'll never get removed due to the way the American's houses and political system works, and it will just be wasted money that could have been used for better purposes. It was supposed to drag out until the election but Trump releasing the transcript of the call pulled the rug out from under them and the had to go into damage control. Now the focus will be on the “evil republican” senators not convicting him. 5 1 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The defining moment in this mornings farce was when Pelosi got her 1st impeachment passed, and she stifled a huge outburst of laughter and glee, and then warned her followers to stop giggling. The video of this will be viral. It was a huge moment that offered a split second of honesty to cut through her BS and bluster. 4 1 3 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post OneMoreFarang Posted December 19, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted December 19, 2019 Lets wait for the senate. If the senators, who are supposed to be impartial jury, work together with the White House then this is a very clear sign that the USA is not a 1st world country anymore. Maybe its time for the rest of the world to put sanctions on the USA so that they have time to think about their behavior which resembles a third class banana republic. I am sorry for all the decent Americans which must have a hard time trying to explaining to the rest of the world why they have a president and lots of politicians which just don't care about the laws and their own constitution. Truly dark times over there. 7 4 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why didn't 45 after being elected by a minority with questions of legitimacy over his head due to confirmed Russian interference choose to govern for his base ONLY instead of trying like a NORMAL president in such circumstances to EXPAND his base? So back at you. The most guilty party in the obvious near civil war levels of division in the USA is the current president. Of course the conditions were ripe for such a horrible situation, but he has gone out of his way to continue to inflame them. 5 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
