Lindsey Graham Tells Us in Advance That He Will Be Lying Under Oath

Read the Constitution...

And all the founding fathers writings, it will become clear that what trump has done was the highest of high crimes ...

I have a better idea: YOU show us how Trump violated The Constitution..
 
Felony bribery, still ongoing and developing now as you read this...

Trump lures GOP senators on impeachment with cold cash

I love the last line... The GOP need change their nickname to POT (Party Of Trump). :lol: In fact that is what I am going to do from now on. Oh and this really is an attempted coup.

“The hard lessons from 2018 were that elections have consequences and it is the president’s party now,” said Scott Reed, the senior political strategist at the U.S. Chamber of Commerce.

Trump, Reed added, “has the ability to turn on the money spigot like no one else.

As I've told you before if you have to ask you shouldn't even be in this conversation

Ask yourself this if the founders that singed the declaration of Independence were the members of our current Senate do you believe trump would survive his upcoming impeachment?

If the senators were actually doing their jobs they would be asking themselves that exact question...
 
The longer the Senate has this trial, the better Trump will do in the polls. Draw this out. Make the Democrats stretch their very very thin case over several months. Make them look like the petty little children they are. No mercy.

Thats what Trump thinks too but Mitch won't bite. He wants to table it with one vote and be done. He knows that it is what his caucus wants. They'll take the money but no show. They don't want a drawn out monkey trial that they will need to hide from in case Trump loses in 2020. They don't even want to see what "drug deal" Guilliani cooked up overseas. either.

No need to explain... I've always known that the left's stand against bigotry, misogyny, racism, homophobia, xenophobia, Islamophobia, etc... only applies to those who embrace their far left, progressive ideology.

If the person is gay and conservative, you call them a queen... If they're black and a conservative, you call them an uncle Tom... Women who are conservative you call bimbos, tarts, bitches, etc...

We get it... It's not a secret... We've known this for a very, very long time.

I guess even you know that Lindsey Graham is a big old queen. It's sad that he doesn't have the balls to admit it.

And if he is gay? Your point is? Your buddies Don Lemon, Brian Stelter, Anderson Cooper and a bunch of Congressmen are gay.

They are not closeted gay men who support dumb policies, lying traitors, or flip flop their positions due to a bad check from a guy known to stiff people and con them out of money.

Sure, you can rail about the Republicans not being impartial, but what about the Democrats? They certainly aren’t impartial either. They’re trouncing at the bit to vote guilty for removal. Their minds already made up before the trial begins. So too, the Republicans. Neither side can be impartial. Not when approximately 90% of democrats are in favor of impeachment and removal vs. 90% of Republicans against.

This is nothing new, during Bill Clinton’s trial each senator had already made up their mind also before the trial began. No impartiality there either. There may be two, three, four senators that will weigh the evidence given, then decide which way to vote. But for the rest, minds are closed to whatever evidence is given, their vote pre-determined ahead of time. For the rest, presenting evidence and witnesses is irrelevant, Republican and Democratic.

In our polarized and ultra-high partisan political world, we live in, it’s no surprise one side can’t see their side isn’t impartial at all, but expects the other side to be.

You are right. After seeing the transcript Trump released a lot of people made up their minds. We can't believe Trump made up the transcript he released himself. Unless you are claiming the transcript is bogus Trump impeached himself. Can you read?

I love it when someone makes my point for me... Thanks.

Exculpatory evidence has already been presented, in the form of the call transcript and comments by Zelesky.
. Nope, just the OJ Simpson’s defense!
1. No actual transcript has been made available for the inquiry; however we are being told that the original summary of that telephone conversation had been placed into a “secret vault” where the government would routinely secure National Security stuff
2. He wasn’t under oath; so, if Mr. Zelenskiy truly loved & wished to protect his country from Mr. Trump’s fury, telling a small lie would be a great act of self-sacrifice for his Ukraine...

_Excuses and whining: the GOP side offers plenty of that; but to date, no exculpatory evidence has been presented...

Geezis, what I wouldn't do for an R. Crumb style illustration with the above caption. :lamo
That might just be the spark that blows the resistance powder keg and taps into the motherlode, the true Golden Meatball that signals that today's Left can beat Trump at his own game.
 
Considering there is documented evidence and tapes of Queen Lindsey being as vocally anti-Trump as I am, back in 2016, I'm not surprised.

Lindsey is slimy dude as he's changing sides when it's beneficial for him. When I think term 'sellout' Lindsay is prime example. Interesting phenomenon xD
 
You know kids, it's time to stop acting as if Trump is some superhuman machine.
The man is seriously ill and the best way to fight him is to make fun of him, relentlessly, mercilessly.
 
How could Trump not know if Giuliani is still his attorney? He's the most powerful man in the world. If he doesn't know, who the **** does? Apparently, G made the call responding 'yes' to reporters. But I don't think it's his decision to make. So bizarre.

LOL I know. When Trump was asked if he was directing Guilliani's efforts in Ukraine. He made that "quick.. think of a lie face" and said "He has a lot of clients". :lamo

But now trump doesn't even know if Giuliani is even his lawyer...

The thing is you can't take the partisanship out of politics, impeachment is a political process. The idea of any senator, representative for that matter or pretty much members of each major party being impartial is a pipe dream. The huge difference between Bill Clinton's impeachment and Trump's is the facade of impartiality has been dropped. Both parties, sides had their lines drawn in the sand before the beginning of impeachment in both. Only the facade of impartiality in the hearings and senate trial was preserved during Bill's and not during Trump's.

Nixon's probably was the only impeachment where quite a lot of representatives and senators were digging for the truth. His wasn't a strictly a one party affair. Then again, Nixon's took place in an entirely different era of politics. We didn't have the polarization or the ultra-high partisanship we have today. Cooperation between parties was more the norm than the automatic opposition we have today.
 
Democratic members of congress said they would impeach Trump, long before the Ukraine story ever hit.

Jan 2017


And there were many more Dem Reps who've stated the same. The Dems have looked so ridiculous over the last 3 years, they are like unpaid public relations spokesmen for Trump, making him look good by comparison.

If I recall we all here on DP guessed how long it would take before Trump would be impeached...and I guessed one year. Boy, was I wrong.
 
Impartiality is not at issue here. Partisanship is not at issue here. A hysterical view of what we should expect from elected officials is at issue here.

The Republicans in the House basically did their job as it is understood by them in TrumpWorld. Their job, present no defense and laughably absurd arguments that had nothing to do with anything. Their arguments were the equivalent off driving down the highway, missing your exit cycling back to the same exit and MISSING IT AGAIN, over and over and over. Embarrassingly bad....but not unexpected.

But now we have GOP Senators doing exactly what is not even in Trump's best interest apparently thinking that entirely rejected the Senate Trial does Trump any good. McConnell claiming to be in "lock step" with the WH and Graham claiming he is GOING to stick his head in the sand as opposed to even participating as a Juror in the Senate. I fully expect him to show up wearing headphones, listening to Rush Limbaugh tapes. Would it not be better for Trump if these two idiots claimed that they were taking the process seriously and then voted NO on Removal?

Of course it would be better for Trump and for the Country. That leaves us with one conclusion to draw. They are literally trolling the entire country in their overzealous interpretation of what DonDon, Bozo the President wants.

So frankly, supporters of these two Senators and others of their ilk need to make a decision, policy aside and platforms aside. You can clearly find other politicians that will support Trump wholeheartedly and endorse the current Trumpian [surely not Republican] agenda but that WILL NOT troll the entire country in the process. Do you really want elected officials trolling the entire country, treating the process as yet another platform to provide some sort of warped, pathetic entertainment for the gorillas amongst us who pick their asses, scratch their nuts and think this is all fun and games or bar stool entertainment?

Do you really want a Senate Majority Leader that just lets Bills from the other chamber pile up on his desk, not even allowing debate or a floor vote even considering that for the most part he has the votes in hand to defeat them? What are we paying these goons for, their Senatorial quaffs, every hair in place looking like Mattel Toys decided to make a Senior, Retirement Ken doll?

Beyond Judge and Justice appointments that are coming to him from the WH Counsel's office meaning McConnell is oblivious to that process, just rubber stamping it as is Graham, what has McConnell done? Well he has cleared the path for Oleg Deripaska to open an aluminum plant in Kentucky, the state he represents. Hurray for Moscow Mitch.

That is it....that is all of it. As for how Mitch spends the rest of his time representing the people of Kentucky, Republicans in the Senate or anything else for that matter....who the frig knows!

Trump provided a transcript and Vindman verified that it was 100% accurate.

No, Vindman wanted to make changes to the Memo of Telcon (not a transcript) that were not allowed. He claims the omissions that he wanted to correct ARE accurate and Jennifer Williams had a similar view.
 
Irrelevant.

Oh, I see what you're saying. And yeah I actually agree with you. Any senator who has already announced their inability to be impartial should be recused.
 
Dems create a totally partisan impeachment mess and then whine that the Senate vote, similar to the House one, will be almost entirely partisan. What they really mean is that they don't have a Senate majority and so cannot complete their farcical coup against Trump. Guess you guys should have figured this out before you started.

Actually only the impeachment is partisan. There is more bipartisanship against impeachment than for it. Leftist can lie all they want it won't change facts.
 
Wed, July 18, 2018. The Pentagon announced that the U.S. had released $200 million in security assistance to Ukraine. The release of the military aid had already been confirmed Friday, July 13th in a statement posted by the Ukrainian Embassy in Washington.

Why wasn't an investigation of the Biden's, Burisma or CrowdStrike asked of Ukraine as a "favor to us" in 2018? Why in 2018, was there no urgent need of Trump or Rudy Giuliani to ask Petro Poroshenko to 'clean up corruption' in Ukraine? There was no hold up of military aid in 2018 in order to "ask a favor though", none at all. Wasn't Trump concerned about Joe Biden and his "corruption" in 2018?

I really wish someone could come up with a logical answer to this question. I thought maybe you could?

Because that would be like asking the co-conspirators to investigate their buddies.
