Pelosi officially announces impeachment inquiry

[Methais]

Kinda like Fox News is a parody of a news organization.

What do you think about the other networks though? Mainly...

NBC
ABC
CBS
CNN
MSNBC

Asking for a friend.

McConnell is unilaterally holding up hundreds of pieces of legislation in the senate, does this bother you? He puts virtually nothing forward until he knows the president is in on board. Does that bother you that the legislative branch is acting as a de facto part of the executive?

No, why would it bother me? It didn't bother me when Harry Reid was doing the same thing. The Senate chooses its own rules and I'm fine with that.

What I'm not fine with is the leader in EITHER house just deciding how the House/Senate is going to do something without a vote. Let me put it this way: If at some point in the past the House voted to allow the speaker to unilaterally launch an impeachment inquiry then I would have no problem with what Pelosi is doing. But since that has never happened then it's bullshit that Pelosi thinks she can do this without so much as a floor vote, and it should bother every American but too many people on the left and others suffering from TDS don't care because they want Trump gone even if it means their elected officials act as dictators along the way.

The longer this goes on, the worse it is for Trump. Especially as it's clear it's far deeper than a single phone call. They're playing an odd game, as most middle ground people see his actions as more guilty, simply by not complying.

Such as?

Campaign finance issues with the two Russians that were arrested yesterday.

Abusing national security systems.

Guiliani and two others acting on behalf of the government as private citizens.

Publicly asking for China's help.

Profiting off his position by having foreign dignitaries pay for rooms at his businesses they don't utilize.

It's not a criminal proceeding, so public opinion matters - and the support for his removal has grown rapidly. Their only defense is stonewalling and attacking the credibility of a whistleblower. Nothing as far as a defense of his alleged crimes.

Grown rapidly among who specifically? A bunch of already chronically triggered leftists?

All of the polls are pretty similar that I've seen. Roughly 50% support impeachment and remove. The trend is independents are the ones leaning towards it

Are these the same polls that said Hillary had a 6 billion percent chance to win the 2016 election?

She won the popular vote.

You should realize by now that most "polls" are used to create the news, not to report on an actual trend.
