Pelosi officially announces impeachment inquiry

[~Rocktar~]

I can't decide if I think they should just do a quick vote to acquit or if they should take the time to do a real trial, call every fucking idiot possible including Biden and son, Schiff, Pelosi and all their staff to testify and hash out all this crap in public with real cross examination of the witnesses.

Uh oh! Looks like many uneducated Democrats on Twitter didn't realize that being impeached does not mean removal from office because the number one trending tag on Twitter right now is #ResignTrump

What a bunch of jokers.

In terms of what will happen in the Senate: The charges cannot be dismissed. There can be an agreement to the procedures the Senate will use during the Senate hearings as to whether or not any other issues of substance should be reviewed by the Senate prior to proceeding to a vote on guilt. At the very least republicans will still return to the saw of wanting to parade the whistleblower publicly. For that to happen, the trial hearings will occur.

Really? Says who? The Senate can vote to do what they want with regards to this farce.

As a third small factoid: So far, neither party has attempted to bring this to the Supreme Court largely because the Supreme Court by precedent has said it cannot weigh in on political matters. An outright dismissal, if attempted, could successfully be petitioned to the Supreme Court as a legal constitutional matter, though. Based on this, no, neither party can allow that to happen. It would be disastrous to the republican mantra to leave this hanging open long enough to wend through the Supreme Court. They'll follow form. They have no choice. How the vote will tally is also a foregone conclusion.

They have not gone to the Supreme Court because Impeachment is purely, solidly and constitutionally restricted to the Congress. The court has no jurisdiction. Next completely baseless opinion.

Not a factoid, but a guess: From here on, the shit show only gets worse, as both parties capture images and soundbites to use for the 2020 elections, from House, through Senate to Presidency. And another guess: americans will no longer care to hear it, don't want to know who was right or wrong and have no attention span for any subtle nuance.

Yes it gets worse, a lot worse. Yes some will want to hear about it despite your deeply condescending opinion of Americans.

Leading to the prediction: 2020 will be hotly contested and still bitterly divisive. The country will not heal from this.

This wound has been in the process of being made for decades by the elitist Leftist in the country and it has pushed the nation to the brink of a hot civil war. We are already in a cold civil war for the soul of the nation regarding who we are, what we will stand for and how we will proceed in the future.

It doesn't matter who is bad or who is not.

This is what loser shitbags say when they know they are in the wrong and want to appear conciliatory before getting their ass handed to them when the shit hits the fan. It's a lousy attempt at the old trope "Don't hate the player, hate the game." Both are the same, someone who knows they are in the wrong trying to save their ass.

And everyone is equally to blame for the outcome. There is no winner despite what at least one self-proclaimed embattled hero will claim.

Bullshit, there is one and only one party to blame with it's leaders whipping this dead horse since they lost the election even before the inauguration. Only brain dead morons think otherwise, even many Leftists have said as much. There already is a winner, Trump and anyone with a pulse and IQ over used toilet paper already knows it.

Get off your condescending high horse, grab your ears with both hands and pull until you hear the popping sound as your head comes out of your ass, then look around.

Come on down to the trenches and let's hoist some suds. Keep your leftist label-gun in your holster, and we'll get along fine. We'll agree that we're largely aligned on the immediate outcome, will each be amused and pissed by various antics tried by our ever-so-effective government, and we widely disagree on the long-term future. Then we can agree when we'll get together next and decide who really won over another round or 12. I'll even buy if my point about the Senate proceeding with the trial rather than just dismissing it doesn't hold.

Or you can keep ranting. But me, I'm grabbing a beer.

What a bunch of jokers.

Trump can resign without being found guilty by the Senate dipshit. The hashtag is counting coup for all those who believe Trump should resign in shame.

NO SHIT! REALLY?!

It's a bunch of morons who thought Trump would be removed from office when he was impeached, then when they found out he wasn't they wanted him to resign. Why should he resign? Because Pelosi's false teeth can't stay in her mouth when she speak her lies?

What is there to say? I doubt anyone's changing their minds at this point.
