I think that M. Lester is one of those who refuse to acknowledge that “never trumpers” are against ANY racist, cowardly, misogynist who refuses to honor his oath of office (to protect the Constitution and work for the good of the United States), Trump is the one who needs to be stopped NOW.
I wonder if Lester had a bad drawing day and had to pull something off the garbage pile that he drew before Halloween. That would at least explain why this bit of lamery was shown in the light of day.
I have no doubt the Senate criminals will acquit their dear leader. The American people may (re-?)elect tRump but with the public inquires being held now they cannot say they didn’t know what they were getting when he sells out the U.S. for another tRump Tower and a pat on the head from Putin, Erdoğan, etc.
My Republican family was shocked, disappointed, actually hurt by Nixon, Goldwater, et al, never defended another Republican again (except Bush senior) and registered as independents. Mike is perhaps just loyal to a party that no longer exists in the real world and cannot see that his Republican “OK Boomer” ideology is dying out as the younger generations have a very different perspective, — were the victims of poor governing by his ideology — and will not inherently carry it forward. If you look at the table in this link you can see what is happening. Only a return to the pre-Nixon policies could save them from extinction.
Impeachment is a House thing. Its about 99% likely to happen. Conviction is the Senate thing. Its about 99% unlikely to happen. Mike’s ’toons are a dementia thing. They are out of phase with reality
Let’s hope this was drawn before Yovanovich testified. Lester may be a fool, but I don’t think he’s that foolish. I mean, even Jordan went easy on her.
The dems and media have been waiting and screaming for the “great impeachment” since January 20, 2017 and will continue next year and beyond just like Linus waiting for the great pumpkin.
Here’s the quiet fact: No matter how this comes out, the Other Side guys are not going to disappear, not going to be vanquished. There are now, and will remain, millions people on both sides who sincerely believe their respective political faiths (and that’s the only word that can be used at this point) are The Truth, Justice, and American Way. We all need to get insight into that fact to be able to accept each other and find compromise. The alternative is too bloody to contemplate.
Mr. Lester, you hit another homer. You can tell because it gets all the little liberal’s undies in a bunch. Maybe they will graduate fifth grade some day and try to figure stuff out for themselves instead of being told what to think. I doubt it however….too much work for them.
When the “President” tweets a clear threat in the midst of the testimony – that sounds like "witness intimidation to me – and to a few GOP Congresspersons who were, with great effort, ab;e to admit that “it looks bad”. Yeah – crimes do that ! . When a sleazy, whore-mongering, wife-beating (Marla) draft-dodger attacks a 35-year veteran of the foreign service, with multiple awards, who is taking huge risks to testify – that’s exactly what I expect from a sleazy draft-dodger. WHAT does it take for you to get a clue ? Schiff is a TRUE patriot, and a principled man. Trump is a documented liar, a tax-evader, and a clear threat too our national security – as his dwindling number of defenders knows all too well. I fear for this nation. I fear for my kids, their kids, and the kids of Trump’s GOP defenders.
It is amusing to watch the insults. It will be truly joyous to see how the clown parade implodes as this process continues.
There are 2 possible outcomes.
1. The Dems continue to parade witnesses who are forced to admit under oath that they know of no criminal action, behavior or result. By the time this moves to the Judiciary it will be obvious that Nancy can’t muster a simple majority and the matter will die.
2. The Dems are stupid enough to actually Impeach. There will be a 6 week trial in the Senate during the beginning of the primary season. Every blocked witness will be called to testify. Adam Schiff and his staff will be called to testify. The “whistleblower” will be exposed as a leaker and a felon (lying on the complaint form). America will watch as the Impeachment is exposed as a gross political fabrication.
Feel free to insult me…again. But remember this post in March as you are weeping and screaming.
These leftist trolls have no sense of humor. Schiff is a running joke… or as Trump might say, the biggest joke in the history of our country. How anyone can take this stuff seriously is beyond me. Yesterday’s New York Times blared across the entire front page: “Envoy ‘Devastated’ as Trump Vilified Her.” Wow! Did the boss hurt her feelings. Total joke, though sad, not funny.

Once again Mr. Lester has a hard hitting rebuttal to the impeachment hearings. (I almost kept a straight face when I typed this.)

Abuse of power by a President should never be allowed. Trump clearly abused his power.

My already outsized ego just gets bigger w/ each personal insult. Now I know how President Trump feels. Thank you…
.@RepChrisStewart: “Do you have any information regarding the President of the United States accepting any bribes?”
Yovanovitch: “No.”
Q: Do you have any information regarding any criminal activity that he has been involved with at all?
A: “No”

Nothing said here makes any difference in the world, changes nothing, gives no one value.
It’s like passing gas. You make a noise, produce a stink, it dissipates, and no one remembers the event.
It’s sad that the Internet has managed to convince people that their flatulence matters.
