Which means that we need to act to remove him both for the principle of it, and before he (or some successor eyeing the fact Trump got away with it) is actually successful in those efforts and secures an election through illegal means.
Again, you and others keep acting like what Trump has done is something trivial, something without long term consequence. And it is truly ignorant to do that. It's a lot like watching teenagers laugh at the warning from adults that playing in the quarry is dangerous. Then, of course, the only thing that will sober them up is if one of them dies or is seriously hurt.
You'd think that being adults you would have learned about the folly of that sort of a mindset. But apparently not.Last edited by Bill the Cat; 01-24-2020, 09:48 AM.That's what

Communications professor at Morgan State University declared during MSNBC's impeachment coverage that Schiff's speech was "historic" and it was "amazing" how Schiff "was speaking not just to the 100 people in the room. He was speaking to 100 years in the future. This is a speech that kids will be giving in 2060 at university projects."
Likewise Jonathan Alter, also on MSNBC, assert that Schiff's presentation "[will] go down as one of the great performances even though he's in a different chamber than he belongs to."

Originally posted by firstfloor View PostRepublican senators will make their decisions not based on the evidence before them, but what vote helps to get them re-elected.
It is the nature of the American system of government that politics so easily overrides justice at this level of the hierarchy.
From resisting impeachment, to authorizing it, to withholding the articles of impeachment..... do you think she's just a crazy old woman?The first to state his case seems right until another comes and cross-examines him.

Originally posted by Bill the Cat View PostI'm laughing at Schiff making absurd comments like the Judiciary and the population of the country not being trusted to decide what is right. Only HE and the House can, and the Senate BETTER agree with them or else...
He basically came right out and said that they can't trust the American people to do the right thing at the 2020 election. That is completely authoritarian. It's not his decision. And he just admitted that the dems motive is to interfere with the 2020 election. The very thing they are accusing Trump of doing.

Originally posted by oxmixmudd View PostI wish you could hear what Schiff is saying. 'here right matters'. And unfortunately, that is no longer true. Yet you, MM and others mock it, like its a joke.
It is no joke.

Are you capable of writing posts without spewing a continuous stream of bile?My brethren, do not hold your faith in our glorious Lord Jesus Christ with an attitude of personal favoritism. James 2:1
