The official "let's impeach Trump" thread

[str8line]

It's an idiotic statement. Anyone can see that. It's also very disingenuous to try to attribute it to Republicans or conservatives or Fox viewers or anyone else as a group. I doubt that any more than a tiny fringe (if that) is putting such an argument forward, yet you are trying to paint large swaths of the population as uneducated with it. Somehow that makes you feel good about yourself. Ridiculous.

You are working way too hard to support a jackass.

 

[babe]

Serious? Did you write this with a straight face?

That statement was made by Mike Huckabee. I’ll post it below. Huckabee was a former Republican Governor, Presidential candidate, and Fox News host. His tweet was retweeted over 43,000 times. He talked about trump getting extra terms on the #1 watched cable news show in the evening. trump has already “joked” multiple times about being given more than two terms. This way of thinking isn’t fringe. It’s as Republican mainstream as anything.

Does lying make you feel good about yourself? Ridiculous.

Regardless of what you want to make of it, the idea has very little traction within the Trump circle, or the Republican Party. I've heard of it about once on my listening to callers on XM 125 Patriot programs, and it was dissed by the host. Republicans still have freedom of speech, and you can find a lot of opinions about anything going around. I don't think Trump would accept the idea whoever was calling for it.

2024 is up for grabs within the Republican Party, but the DumpTrumpsters like yourself have given solid conservatives a lot more credibility.

I think the whole Progressive Agenda is discredited by the DumpsTrumpsters enthusiasts because of all the criminal actions done by probably Obama and Hillary, and their little agency agents like Brennan and Comey.

The whole program to disenfrancise the voters and supplant American electoral process with Agency elites/federal employee actors using their jobs for political activism is going down.

You're working way too hard to support a discredited political agenda, a discredited "team" of elites, a discredited set of SES execs in the Federal agencies, and some real political criminals.

babe, let's get it straight, I have no agenda. You've gotta know that.

Supplant. Agenda. Grabs. Solid. Credibility. Progressive. Discredited. Enthusiasts. Criminal Actions. Disenfranchise. Suplant.

babe, read those words again. You're better than this. Settle down.

There may have been Nazis on one side, but the entire side was definitely not made up of Nazis, so again I reiterate that he did not say what you claim. You are purposely selecting the most extreme interpretation possible. And I also think that your last statement is a completely incorrect assumption.

The organizers' explicitly stated goal was to unify the American white nationalist movement.

But knock yourself out defending the guys who were chanting racist and anti Semitic slogans.

Have you been living in a cave for 3 years? Anything Trump wants, Republicans will support. Whether it be blowing up the debt, trashing military and intelligence officers, or supporting Russia. Trump is the Republican Party. If Trump today demanded additional terms, you don’t think that wouldn’t find significant support on Fox News, am radio, and House representatives (Nunes, Meadows, Gym Jordan)? Seriously???

and as always, I bring the receipts (unlike you).

voters are with him: Surveys show Republican voters are developing a less hostile stance toward Putin-era Russia.

Similarly, the percentage of Republicans who call tariffs "a bad thing" has plummeted from 63 percent to 46 percent since 2016 despite strong, continued, and consistent anti-tariff, pro-free trade stances from the GOP in Congress. Another recent Pew poll finds 73 percent of Republicans believe Trump's tariffs would be "good for the U.S.

wait? What?

Are Trumpers on here still arguing that the “Unite the Right” protest organized by white supremacists and Nazis in order to protest the removal of Lee’s statue in Charlottesville, wasn’t based on racism? Wasn't a demonstration of racists doing racist things?

My goodness...

It takes great courage to categorically denounce white supremacists. (eye roll).

But but but Trump is like concerned with corruption, right?

seriously? What took him so long?

How long will it take him to figure out WHY rudy has been intentionally spewing Russian propaganda for Donald?

He said a stupid thing. Maybe he was joking. It will be laughed off by most. When I have heard the president comment about additional terms it sounds like it's clearly a joke to me.

According to what I heard there were people there whose goal was to keep the statues in place. I've spent quite a bit of time in small southern communities and can tell you that they take great pride in their history, even with respect to things they may have done wrong in the past. Do you have some sort of evidence that your supposedly explicitly stated goal was the only reason that anyone supported that side?

If (or should I say when) there are marches to remove statues of patriots like Washington, Jefferson, Adams, etc. because they did not denounce slavery I would be on the side of those who want the statues to remain, even if there are white nationalists and other putrid groups who also happen to align on that side of the argument. My reasoning for supporting my side of the debate will be completely unrelated to the goals of these fringe groups. Just because they might occasionally support the same cause that I do does not mean we are in alignment. I would assume and hope the same would be true for you when it comes to an issue that the extreme left is aligned with.

How convenient. Seems like this administration says lots of stupid things. Like on a daily basis. Maybe they are just stupid

The smokescreen of “unite the right” being really about the first amendment or statues.

These are cover stories that white nationalists hide behind, knowing fully that they are lies to hide the ugly bigotry and hatred. I frankly don’t believe that even the most gullible trump cultists believe this.

My son sometimes says a mean thing and covers his tracks by saying “just kidding”

I know he’ll get over this immature behavior while the IMPOTUS cultists play this baby game.

ahhhhh yes. I knew this was coming. So predictable.

And now we’re back to treating the world’s most powerful man sitting on top of 2,000 nukes as a dumb 15 year old child. We’re back to rationalizing his rhetoric as, “joking.”

• Just as we did when he “joked” about sexually harassing women.
• Just as we did when he “joked” in July 2015 about Russia finding Hillary’s emails.
• Just as we did when he “joked” about loving Wikileaks, an organization working with Russian intelligence against us.

• Just as we did when he “joked” about being able to shoot someone and get away with it.
• Just as we did when he “joked” about pardoning criminals who didn’t flip on him or ICE officers committing Crimes against humanity.
• Just as we did when he “joked” about China investigating the Bidens.

And now he’s “joking” about getting additional terms. Riiiighttt.

The funny thing is, he isn’t laughing when he’s telling these unfunny jokes. It feels like he’s testing the waters. The real joke is that dimwitted adults, like you, continuously excuse such deplorable behavior from the world’s most powerful man and rationalize it as mere “joking.”

When will Trump stop “joking” and actually lead? We didn’t elect him to be a comedian, right? Or maybe you did because you’re an unserious and immature person? That’s just one of the few reasons how I can see why anyone could support trump. They’re just unserious and immature.

Btw, here’s list of many of Trump’s “jokes.”

and a chilling reminder of what happens when we “joke” about things that we shouldn’t:

https://foreignpolicy.com/2017/02/08/laughing-all-the-way-to-autocracy-jokes-trump-dictatorship/

So why were the Nazis so uncharacteristically lenient when it came to punishing jokesters?

The rather unsettling answer may be that the Nazis realized that this type of humor helped consolidate their rule. In the claustrophobic confines of Hitler’s dictatorship, people needed to let off steam. If the masses vented their frustration by joking instead of taking to the streets, then that was in the political interest of the leadership...

The jokes under other dictatorships of that era were strikingly similar — the Soviet Union, too, had its own brand of resigned humor. Told over and over again, quips like the following normalized the corruption and complaisance of the Soviet system, transforming the incompetence and crass brutality of its authorities into a basic fact of life:

let’s learn from history and not normalize and joke about Trump’s corrupt behavior or autocratic tendencies.

But if your son could get away with that mean thing, would he “joke around” about it? Meaning, if you stopped getting on his case about his poor behavior being mean, shocking, or unacceptable, would that “joke” become normal and acceptable behavior?
