If Democrats Win Control of Congress in the Midterms, Will They Impeach Trump a Third Time?

    The impeachment process is broken. Its like a referee throwing a flag on the play against “the red team” and then asking “the red team” players if there was really a violation and if a penalty should be applied.

    Who cares? He was already impeached twice and it literally had zero effect.

    If anyone believes they actually will, I have a brand-new shiny perfect example of how we got here to begin with that I’ll sell for a reasonable sum.

  • What the hell else could be the point of winning control of Congress? Putting trump in a cell is the last hope for American democracy (if any such hope exists).

    Message to Democrats: You better, that’s what everyone is voting D for. Stop the madness, put safeguards in place to keep this from happening again.

  • Considering that the Senate failed to convict him when he attempted to stoke a coup, I have little hope for an impeachment to anything but another one for the pile.

    I’m happy just to see how many impeachment tallies Trump can rack up, because I can’t think of anyone else more deserving of being the most impeached president. But it’s a useless gesture, because you don’t need just a majority to remove the president from office, you need a supermajority. And that’s just not happening unless Trump manages to piss off the majority of Republicans, too.

    Will they? Yes. Will it matter? No.

    The only possibility of this happening is if Israel activates their representatives in the House and Senate, but I only see that happening if Trump acts up against them.

    They’ll keep trump around as long as they can. Being just to the left of trump gives them much more area to operate in than being truly a left leaning party. More bribe checks to cash. he’s the best thing to happen to the dem centrists since… the start of the republic maybe.

  • No. They will not. Hakeem is secretly meeting Kushner AIPAC Dems are funding AIPAC Republicans over DSA candidates Here is Tammy duckworth youtu.be/Cm53m1L4Vas?is=tylEWtlOOoOuycnv They won’t do anything and there will just be show trials with a new mueller/smith and a whole lot of “aww we just missed the margin for the vote, make sure you vote HARDER”

    Impeachment is pointless. The question is whether the Senate will vote to remove him

    To predict the future we must look at the past: “Will the Jan 6 hearing recommend criminal charges for Trump?” “No.” “Will Biden direct his AG to prosecute Trump.” “No. In fact the AG should be a republican!” “Will democrats push Biden to get an AG who will prosecute Trump for Jan 6?” “No.” “Will democrats push Biden to prosecute Trump for stealing and hoarding classified documents?” “No.” “Will Biden revoke top security clearance of Trump election rigger and enemy saboteur Elon Musk for having secret meetings with V. Putin?” “No. Let’s tariff Chinese solar panels because solar panels are spies now.” “Will democrats stonewall the funding and creation of Trumps Nazi ICE army?” “Thank you ICE!”
