This.

 

pence is justifiably angry as the president put his family (wife and daughter, who were with him) in jeopardy.

 

Some of the house members, like boebert who was tweeting the location of the Speaker live, should resign. hawley, cruz, rubio, mo brooks, gohmert should resign as well. I mean if they're really interested in "healing" and "unity"?

Resign, they should be facing prosecution for incitement.

Johnmell. It was not the pandemic that caused Trump to lose! The way he handled and lied about the pandemic would have had some negative impact but just add that to the tens of thousands of lies he told, the promises not kept and the hiding he took in the mid terms was already a signal that the majority of Americans had had enough of the golfing commander in chief who could not even run his own business without bankrupting them numerous times. He is sending America down the same path with the massive deficit he has created looking after his own kind and his corporate mates. Good riddance!

[GrandPapillon]

come on, we all know he lost because he didn't build that wall ????

Not so sure about that. People tend to credit whatever President is in power when the economy is doing well. And, at least as far as employment goes, it was. Most people really aren't that politically engaged or knowledgeable.

I don't think he will see the inside of a jail. 

 

The republicans are bombed back to the stone age, and if they shake hands with the democrats on this matter, they can kiss their chance goodbye at next election. 

 

If Pence has any dreams about running for president in 4 years he better play his cards right. 

 

It's going to be a very interesting month and I can't imagine how it must feel as an American. 

 

The best thing for all would be if Trump just stepped down and disappeared , but I don't see that happening unless he is promised that he will never be prosecuted.

Trump should stay until the end, there is no ground for him to go before his term is done on January 20th

 

leaving now will send the wrong signals to his enemy and the Democrats,

The only thing that would have any impact is the 25th Amendment.  If Pence and cabinet (I don't expect this to happen) were to find that the president was unable to discharge the powers and duties of his office and send it in writing to congressional leaders -- Pence would immediately become President.  If the President were to fight it he would have his chance to regain that by disputing it...  Congress would have up to 21 days to consider it, it would then take a vote of 2/3 of the senate to keep Pence as president (there is 10 days left).   Effectively it would strip President Trump of all his powers for the 10 days immediately... including the power of the pardon (something he is likely to use sweepingly for friends and family)...  Impeachment would only take those away at the end of the process (likely after the end of the President's term).    I would just prefer giving DOJ carte-blanche to pursue any charges they see fit (if they do) without political interference... rather than worrying about impeaching him.

Ummmm...he incited a riot that ended with the attack on the Capitol building.  His kids are attacking senators via Twitter, with some vicious BS.  And, he has the nuclear codes and can start a war with a simple command.

 

Right...no grounds for him to resign...jeez....

don't confeve clever with honourable or brilliant.

 

trump isn't stupid.  he (with his even clevererer lawyers) has managed to keep out of jail and "winning" in the courts, at least in his business days.

 

he might not be highly edumacated, he might not be classy, but he has a way of manipulating people, wriggling out of trouble, and getting what he wants.

 

don't misunderestimate him, especially now that he senses  danger and possibly is beginning to panic.  the final ten days will be when he lashes out and goes for broke.

 

if he can't win, he's got the potential to bring it all down with him.

 

be afraid.

 

 

As a business man he lost a lot of court cases too, used his mobster lawyer and fathers mobster friends to bully people. His cronies are running away from him now he has become weak. They will rat him out soon.

Or not.  Hitler's Munich putsch failed in 1924 and he was tried, convicted, and imprisoned.  A few years later he was Chancellor of Germany.  Trump hasn't got many years left, but he has acolytes eager to pick up the banner.

Trump’s Long-Favored Banks Pull Back Amid Fallout From Riot

 

Two of Donald Trump’s favored banks are pulling away from the billionaire president in the wake of last week’s deadly riot at the U.S. Capitol.

 

Deutsche Bank AG has decided to refrain from further business with Trump and his company, said a person with knowledge of the matter, asking not to be identified because the deliberations were confidential. Trump owes the Frankfurt-based lender more than $300 million.

 

And Signature Bank, the New York lender that’s long catered to his family, said it’s cutting ties while it presses for his resignation. Signature is closing two personal accounts in which Trump held about $5.3 million, a spokesperson for the firm said on Monday.

you and a few others in this thread are not in a position to come to that kind of conclusions, it's not up to you or your line of thoughts. Let's see how things develop in the next few days. I suspect all those Nancy high horses hysteria will eventually fall flat when it comes to take actions.

You're right!  But congress is in a position to do this.  And they have.  So much for falling flat.

There are actually quite a number of Republicans in politics that do not like Trump, the majority though in public politics are cowards without any moral backbone.   Those in politics that don't like Trump though (except for maybe one in the Senate) have been too willing to sacrifice the country in favor of their own political careers.

what a ridiculous performance from the Terminator. What a circus!!!

[lapamita]

I am a fan of Trump Trump.

Reason the person is authentic andhim move a lot forward. People doing something making mistakes.

 

The reason why Trump don't win the election was not cheating the election.

 he make mistakes before the election and after the election

Bevor the electio  he have to calm a little bit down  more emotionally in a sensitive way due to the situation

 

And after the election he used the wrong words. always sheeting and Liar press.

 

 if he use the word during all my time the Press was not lying but take the stand against me meaning Reporters and commentators in nearly all TV channels in the world can hear they against Trump.

 

 the Pharma industry release that they found injection today after the voting they like the Democrats Oh wonder if they would release that they found in injection today before the voting Trump would win the election Trump would even win the election wenn there was no covid.

 

so it was  circumstances why Trump loose the election. and not sheeting. he misinterpretadet.

The biggest mistake at the end was when they run to the Capitol him don't give any commentary or standoff

 

my  biggest question to all this?????

 

 on this day everybody knows from me to the FBI to the police that's a lot of anger people would have met at the Capitol why on hell is the country with the best security system not able to speed up the security?????

 

I thinking there are players behind that we don't speak up security let it escalated and we get rid of Trump

 

With the move to not keep save the capitol. Trump los lot of support and if there would be Voting at the moment him would loose  completely.

 

And some people of the opposition Trump sitting in the chair smoking a cigar and say thank you how easy it was to get rid of Trump Justin doing nothing

Face it. There is no way for trump to send a 'right' message to anybody about anything. 

I'm not addressing the massive ongoing 'deplatforming' he's suffering on many social media. I'm addressing his inability to know or speak what is right.

He has no idea how to do the right thing; he's simply never had any experience doing it. He has never had or needed a moral compass, so now he's completely lost. 

His belated education in being a useful human being is just beginning. Even so, I doubt he will even graduate kindergarten before going to that big McDonald's in the sky. Or wherever such human detritus goes.

Now we come to the good part of the show. That's the part where the lions maul their trainers and the elephants crush the people who have been mistreating and exploiting them for years as the audience roars in approval.

Talking about a circus, I posted something a while ago which had a face pic of trump decked out as a clown, however I think it may have been "withdrawn".

 

However attached to it were the words, "what did you expect, when you elect a clown, you get a circus".

 

Never a truer word spoken.

You lost me at trump is good.

The man is evil in every way.

He's not a real president. He's more like a Mafia crime boss.

He has secured his place as the worst president in American history. 

Nobody will ever challenge that.

Will be impeached twice.

That pretty much says it all.
