Thats a huge cop out excuse.
The narrative being advanced by the left hasn't been that Trump is a petty theft. Its been that he is a huge threat to our democracy. That he is such a huge threat that nothing is out of bounds in the effort to remove him from office.
There's YOUR cop out. The liberal position is not to remove him by any means, it's to remove him by constitutional ones. It is by any means that he won his office.
Unfortunately, there is no way for the constitution to work when the divide between the people is nurtured by demagogues. The moneyed interests have figured out how to silence the vote, the only power of the people. All they do is keep us evenly divided on everything. Then we cancel each other out and we're left with the default system of bribery and cronyism being the norm and the politically neutered people's fate can rest in the hands of plutocrats as if nothing has changed in thousands of years.
Trump is not a petty thief, he's a pathological narcissist and a shameless, self-aggrandizing, amoral hedonist who ****s and robs and manipulates whomever he wishes with no concern for any consequences outside his own orange hide. How have you missed that part?
They now have Muellers reports. He was given as wide of a scope as he determined necessary, all the time and money he wanted. Now the results of that report are in. This rellrt was sullosedly the big hold out delaying the democrats from making thier case to the public of why he needs to be removed.
I think they certainly will, once they have a chance to put the puzzle together and create a case. Trump has made a decent case for his own removal, though, and wouldn't need the democrats' help in a world where repubs have an ounce of honor. Could you imagine if the Russian connection, with all the secret meetings, the indicted cabinet members, the Putin ass kissing, and warnings from the intelligence data of allies that they are meeting with Russian agents, was Obama's story? I can only imagine the bile that would be coming in via a right-wing fire hose. The sudden apathy to treason, when it's THEIR criminal, is telling of how loud money speaks to idiots and the right wing's listening.
There is absolutely nothing stopping the Democrats from bring a vote to the floor and making their case to everyone of whatever it is they been fretting about for the last 2 years. The Republicans can not block the democrats from making their case to the public. How the republicans vote is meaningless in that regard.
But the republicans CAN obstruct justice in their own way and you know it. The democrats know the republican base is immovable by facts. Thus, they will appeal to the independents and hope that enough of them have the balls to stand up, not to mere corruption but the corruption of our very national fabric with our faces rubbed in it. Justice for you and I becomes tyranny when that same justice is not applied equally to the rich and powerful like Trump. If you want to make America great, I'll join you. Let's start by making it a place where the fair hand of justice smacks rich asses evenly.
If democrats make a strong case for his impeachment and removal from office the republicans who resist will pay dearly for that at the polls in 2020.
That's true. They will pay. They won't break rank, though, because a strong case already exists to those with eyes and ears and they pretend it's all just partisanship.
I know many in the media want to change their narrative now to something new but we all owed an explination from the people telling us how awful a person this report was going to prove trump is.
Are you kidding me? The investigation took two years and they're supposed to process that in a day? This doesn't happen on your time, it's an investigation. You don't think you're going to get an ear full of what the democrats have to say? They will present their case, don't worry, they already have on many of Trump's stupid, reckless or traitorous actions. Again, how are you missing this?
The Democrats only have to prove how horrible a person Trump is to those who remain, INCREDIBLY, unconvinced by Trump himself. Have you seen the guy and heard what he says? How he sees the world? How horrible those who miss it?
