OP

Yeah he breaks down resistance with the consistency of his corruption. Hopefully this is over sooner
My gut feeling is that Pelosi is semi-bluffing on the "expedient" part, knowing Trump will try to drag things out as much as possible. He's been constantly obstructing all year in new and creative ways, and her committee chairs have had to cope with it. The long this runs on, the more horrible crap is going to come out and he'll get more negative media coverage, so ironically it'd be in Trump's best interest to just comply with everything now and hope for an eventual impeachment vote in the House and highly likely acquittal in the Senate.
I also think that Pelosi would rather impeachment not interfere with the dem primary process that much, because it would be extremely distracting.
you'd think none of them were alive for Clinton's third term.
also, this guy is as corrupt as the day is long.
"Boogaloo" is guns rights/libertarian code word for insurrection against the government.
Also, Stoller's weird, but he's not a right winger. I think the only reason he has a bio at the Federalist Society, is because it works with the "Open Markets Institute", which is the anti-monopoly think tank he works for or something. In general, he's a weirdo Jeffersonian blinkered by class anti-monopoly guy who buys into the whole "Democrat's sold out to neoliberal middle class people because they thought working class people were yucky" idea.

He has some good ideas, some bad ideas (trusting Josh Hawley), some dumb ideas.
See this is what I am confused about... guy seems like a joke. Why would an Obama apointee go along with it, unless he turned out to be a total hack?
Is he being forced to? Does he even want to?
The whole thing is wild. My oldest is 3 and a half. I fully expect to help her do some future homework.
There's a noticeable dip in Trump's approval on 538 since impeachment. It could also just be that it was mostly shitty pollsters that were being put into its model and now after impeachment all the top pollsters decided to run polls.
But it does not give credence to the idea that impeachment would rally the country behind Trump

I am so sure that trump is gonna be the only "bad guy" in the history books.
there will be little mention of that $380 million he gotin donations or his 40 percent approval. They will make sure he's the fall guy

im guessing more he gave documents he really shouldn't have given the IG.
I'm just realizing that Trump wanted to build a literal swamp on the border.
While it's a safe bet that anyone Trump appoints is evil, incompetent, or both....there have been instances where people have done the job they were put in place to do. We saw it with the previous IG. So, the fact that a shitty Trump lawyer might have given documents to an Obama appointed IG isn't totally out of the realm of normal. Especially if he's incompetent. (ie he's way under qualified.)
It's also of note that the State IG is acting as he should--totally independently. So, even in real shitty times, there are still people who do the job they're supposed to do. Obviously, we need to wait and see what in the heck is being reported. (Also of note, he's going in person, not even just sending the report. That's a pretty big deal. Previous IG did it via writing.)

Plus, Bill was actually popular
Seems like it.
Trump to resign then get appointed as Pence's VP and then Pence will resign and become Trumps VP again perpetually over and over again
Poll: Only 4 in 10 Republicans think Trump mentioned Biden on Ukraine call even though he acknowledged doing so
This fucking country lol
This fucking country lol
Someone I know irl brought him up about the NJ transit committee taskforce investigation bs just to boost his rep in the north so I looked him up
We really can't know anything. I know everyone is getting their hopes up, but I'm trying to temper mine. The whole system is so compromised that I don't know who to trust. We'll just have to wait, but we probably won't even get the full story.
I think I've asked in other thread but didn't get answer, what happens to trumps reelection money if
A: he gets impeached and removed
B: he resigns
A: he gets impeached and removed
B: he resigns
Remember when the Trump said he'd release the Ukraine transcript and a few people panicked that it'd vindicate him and be a perfectly good call? Remember when it was announced the whistleblowers complaint would be publicly released and a few people panicked that it'd be a bust or some ploy by "Trump the master"? Remember when the IG announced they'd be holding an urgent briefing..
lol I don't see any reason to worry at the moment. well know soon enough.

Someone better alert Sen. Kennedy that Trump's spawn is profiting from the presidency.
not sure what you mean. Actual historians will continue to research and publish papers about complex investigations. Perhaps you mean the history that is taught on schools?
Yea, like what the common people will read.
He will, if things go the way they're going, be THE guy responsible for trump. Everyone else thought they were getting something else.
Obviously not the truth once people look into it, but I'm sure red state textbooks will talk about how he lied to them and blah blah blah, in the end the gop decided to vote him out
it's a federal account so he could transfer it to a PAC and then grift off that.
It's time to bring back push polling. Let me demonstrate.
[intro]
[couple basic establishing questions]
"On last Thursday President Trump confessed to asking Ukraine for help investigating Presidential candidate Joe Biden, which is a crime and an impeachable offense.
Should Donald Trump be impeached?
On Sunday, President Trump urged his followers to take up arms against fellow citizens of the United States, which is sedition and an impeachable offense.
Should Donald Trump wear the orange or the stripes when he goes to prison?"
CNN had a segment on this tonight at some point. Trump -admitted to doing it on live TV, then repeatedly on Twitter for days-, but yes, only 4 in 10 republicans think it happened. They're that fucking conditioned into thinking he'd never do anything so brazenly corrupt. Even when he fucking admits to it. This is even more stupid than the whatever-in-10 republicans that insisted that Trump's inauguration photos revealed a larger crowd despite being shown both his vs Obama's simultaneously. Fucking cult members. Kill me if the base of a dem president is ever this stupid.
Orange! I want to see how pathetically pale he looks when his cosmetics would wear off slowly over the course of a few weeks, and have the outfit be the baseline of how ridiculous he looked going in.
The way this is formated made me think she hired the entire state of Michigan.
You need 20 Republican senators to remove him for office. Go through the list the GOP senators and find me 20 who might do that.
Also, if Trump get removed from office with GOP votes he will 100% call on people to not vote for them in the next election, and if only 10% of his supporters comply (and I think he can get way more than that), the Republican party is gonna pretty much get wiped in the next election. I really don't think the GOP will go with that. They would take a "normal" election landslide over that any day of the week.
I'll tell you one thing, if Trump loses 2020 or get's impeached, Republicans can never talk about Jimmy Carter being a one term/bad president. You shove Trump down their fucking throats until they choke on Cheetos.
Think of all the things they'll learn about though - like how to cut off an elephant's tail after you've murdered it.
Forma is the nickname she handed us (unknowingly). We didn't choose it. That and her Eeeeeeeeewarren twitter handle sounds yucky. If she's elected, maybe she can work out a deal with whoever runs @Liz to take control of it? I'm not opposed to the idea.
Well, if they don't completely disavow him, they'll likely claim both his Presidency was artificially cut short by underhanded means e.g. "stolen election", and point to the falsely attributed or outright false wins they are already claiming e.g. economic/job growth, building (some of) the wall, halting North Korean nuclear arms development, halting Iranian nuclear arms development, winning tariff wars against China and Mexico, etc.
One can only hope that the media stops both-sidesing and goes all in exposing everything if Trump falls to at least give the American public some sort of factual education on his Presidency. I can see that happening as the media loves a horse race, but they might just love juicy scandals and fallen "heroes" even more.

And then you just visually cycle through the last bit at the end of every ad.
To be fair, part of that # is probably people who would rather act ignorant than saying they know and still support him.
WarrenE or bust.
I mean, Nate Dogg and Warren G. had to regulate?
That shit writes itself.
p.s.
Yeah, might gonna have to Weekend and Bernie's Nate Dogg VP pick, but I think it's worth it.
