    The official "let's impeach Trump" thread

    Yeah, me neither, but you can't always interpret tone from written communications. Maybe everyone just misread you. It's all good-- I get your meaning. You (and Republican voters in general) are certainly entitled to feel the way you do-- I can respect why you might, and felt similarly...

    The official "let's impeach Trump" thread

    Maybe I am; maybe I do. It was just a joke, and my tiny pea brain was only processing the fairly public threats made by Trump & Senate Trumpians to their own colleagues, who-- whether you like them or loathe them for it as a Republican voter-- are just trying to remain objective and honest with...

    The official "let's impeach Trump" thread

    So, I'm going to take your question in good faith and assume you aren't being sarcastic, because I think you're a good dude, and I want to believe you intended it that way. :) My answer: I don't think so-- but I'm interested, if you have a link. Honestly. Message me privately, even, if you...

    The official "let's impeach Trump" thread

    Trump's defense team is actually making the argument that withholding aid for personal political gain is merely a tool, has a lot of historical precedent (they claimed even Lincoln did it), and that the claim it represents an abuse of power has never been held up. Pretty oily; I guess...

    Did anybody watch the comments made today? Listening to Dershowitz, I have to say, if I am a Senate Republican and I'm at all on the fence, he presents a compelling and persuasive picture of constitutional law that does not favor impeachment/removal. So important that witnesses be allowed in...

    No, no, no-- those were different repercussions. Heads on a pike vs. balls in an urn. See how those are different?

    ...if that were the allegation, and if a legitimate investigation had occurred.

    The official "let's impeach Trump" thread

    You're being unnecessarily antagonist/aggressive, though, if you aren't aware. I happen to think-- and I know a lot of us feel this way-- that opposing views are important and needed. None of us is looking for an 'echo chamber', but we also don't appreciate participation from folks who simply...

    The official "let's impeach Trump" thread

    I mean, in all honesty, if you tried to engage most of us in a meaningful conversation I think you could. It's not really realistic to spam the thread with Breitbart and Fox News tweets, and expect a constructive dialog to emerge as a result, is it?

    The official "let's impeach Trump" thread

    I'm not saying it doesn't matter at all, nor that it's incomprehensible-- if there's enough smoke, I absolutely believe it should be investigated, in fact, and guilty parties brought to justice. What I'm saying is that Trump didn't find it significant in the sense of actually bringing down...

    I realize he's being sarcastic, but Kevin Kruse is actually correct: Nothing that has come out, or will come out for that matter, will cause Trump voters to regret their votes. That ship sailed a loooong time ago.

    The official "let's impeach Trump" thread

    So let's all agree that Hunter Biden was employed by Burisma under that pretense, for the sake of dialog. It seems perfectly plausible, honestly. A lot of us think pro-Trump folks are falling for some twisty words on the part of Trump & Co., though: That he was on some noble quest to bring down...

    It is surprising he has gotten anything done. The same could be said about Obama, and probably about whoever comes after Trump. The country is so divided, and our politicians have lost their minds. I'm cool with agreeing to disagree about the severity of Trump's wrongdoings vs. those of Nixon...

    The official "let's impeach Trump" thread

    Respect, and even sympathy, for your post. I'm quoting this one piece, because I think a lot of this situation with Trump's impeachment boils down to this sentiment. I don't know if anything Obama did was criminal, but let's concede the notion there was something he did on that level, and he got...

    Terrible movies.

    Armageddon is so stupid it literally makes me angry. And anything else by Michael Bay, come to think of it. He took a wrecking ball to my childhood with those godawful Transformers movies.

    You guys. You don't READ stuff to support Trump and dismiss everything brought against him. It's more like a gut feeling.

    The official "let's impeach Trump" thread

    I believe the logic/justification goes something like this: "Obama, grr! Russia Gate! Fake news! So many manufacturing jobs!" Maybe change up the order/verbiage slightly, but otherwise yeah-- something like that.
