House Democrat backs down from impeachment: 'I don't see the value of kicking him out of office'

And the American people will come to the same conclusion that the polls show now, about 50/50. If anything, the biased hearings have gone backwards for the Democrats and the Senate will have fair hearings.

The GOP Senate will do anything but examine the evidence against Trump if that is what you mean by "fair".

This era of republicans are way more corrupt than the Nixon era of republicans and they aren't ashamed about it at all. They are proud.

Then do both. Impeachment is impotent because the Senate won't convict. Censure is impotent because it doesn't matter.

A Republican run trial in Senate will be the Dems worst nightmare. The Republicans will use the time to rehab Trump's imagine and to destroy Schiff and the Dems. And the Dems will never get 67 votes in the Senate so Trump stays in office.

Most people think Hunter Biden landing a $80,000 per month position on a board with no apparent duties doesn't pass the smell test. Especially with his daddy calling for the firing of the guy investigating that company. Most people find it odd to assume there's nothing nefarious going on there, but call for the head of the guy asking questions about it.

First you are lying about there being any investigations into Burisma under the fired prosecutor. He was fired for NOT doing investigations. At least tell the truth.
Now why don't you advocate for passing a law that makes it illegal for the children of Govt. leaders to take jobs from foreign corporations then? The fact is that Hunter broke no laws by accepting that position . Jared didn't break any laws either by accepting the job as envoy of M.E. peace even though he had no diplomatic qualifications but his subsequent seeking of loans and investments from Israeli banks while doing his "job" does not pass the smell test either. Does it?

I'm sure she opened a drawer in her office desk and found a photo of Jeffrey Epstein.

I guarantee you the Democrats are not afraid of a Senate trial. And removing Trump via impeachment wasn't the goal anyway.

Pelosi probably threatened her in some way.

Dissent in The Party is not allowed. The attacks on Gabbard prove that to be true.

You realize that's true for both parties, right?

Didn't take long for her _____to get snapped back into place. I wonder what Pelosi said to her. Democrats don't allow stragglers. They march together.

Can't have elected officials thinking for themselves, can we?

Well, elected officials are party tools in exchange for campaign financing. Private individuals are party tools because they don't think too good.

Not to the same degree. Democrats clamp down on dissidents, where Republicans allow for a much greater degree of freedom. That's why Republicans have such a difficult time mustering a majority, even when they hold the majority of the seats in a chamber. It's also why candidates bucking the Democrat party, like AOC, are such a novelty.

Pfft your guarantee and $4 bucks will get you a coffee at Starbucks. And you are correct impeachment and damaging Trump for 2020 was always the goal. And that means the dems were using the tax payer's money for their own goals in the presidential election. I don't want my taxes used like that. I suspect others feel the same.

You're not seriously suggesting that the Republican party allows a degree of freedom, are you? They're expelling their own members if they cross Trump in any, even the slightest way. The current Democratic party has always been more inclusive than the Republican party, but they've done a good job of alienating moderates and independents too.

Several Republicans have publicly disagreed with Trump and remain in the Republican part. Graham, Paul, Rubio, and Cruz come to mind.

No, you misunderstand me. I don't care about your uncontrollable ranting hallucinations about the evil Democrats. I said they're not afraid of a Senate trial to refute the typical bull**** you had spewed prior to that. A Senate trial was always a possible outcome to beginning an impeachment inquiry and I guarantee you (maybe I can get 2 coffees now) that there is no possible outcome that Pelosi didn't consider.

Yes, the Republican party allows a degree of freedom. Who did they expel?

The DNC has always clamped down on dissidence. Not sure what you mean by 'more inclusive' - but they are absolutely not in favor of party members straying off the core message or voting their conscience.

Anyone that does not bow to trump is labeled a RINO and trump then actively tried to get rid of them.

Oh, well, in my opinion, they don't. They cannibalize each other by calling anyone who looks at Trump sideways human scum. They've expelled all the members who quit because they have some decency left. They primary anyone who doesn't eat Trump's asshole with a spoon.

The DNC is trash. So is the RNC. I'm not sure what point you're trying to make here.

Um, no. And it doesn't appear you really want to discuss this.

Who has been expelled?

That seems to be the byproduct of a certain trait that seems universal to a liberal mind think. Extreme emotionalism.
