The funniest part is the “Rush Job” sticker. Only to the All Aryan Party of Trump, instead of a “Rush to Judgment,” it’s a “Rush to Acquittal.” That is a foregone conclusion, since they will hear no witnesses, accept no evidence, and ignore all facts. Just like a mass shooting, we’ll be told to “Move along, people. Nothing to see here.”
Allow Mulvaney, Bolton, Blair, and Duffey to testify. Allow the needed documents be given to the House. Won’t the four and the documents prove Trump innocent? Without them the Republicans can vote no and a question mark will be next to Trump’s name for eternity.
So the Muller investigation was too long, the impeachment investigation was too short, let’s home the 2020 election will be Goldilocks and be just right to dump Trump.
David Gerrold13 hrsI didn’t know this, but this is good. The Constitution does not allow a pardon for someone who has been impeached.
Got that?
So if Trump wants to be eligible for a pardon he has to resign BEFORE the House votes on Articles of Impeachment. Once he is impeached by the entire House of Representatives, he is literally unpardonable.
The House doesn’t have to send the Articles of Impeachment to the Senate — and in fact, the House should vote not to send the Articles until the Senate delivers a plan for a fair trial.
This would put Trump in the worst possible position. Impeachment hanging over his head, but no chance of acquittal.
But wait! There’s more!
The House can continue its investigation into other high crimes and misdemeanors all next year, delivering new Articles of Impeachment on all the other crimes it uncovers.
The House wouldn’t have to send any of these to the Senate until they were assured of a fair hearing of the evidence.
Or … they could wait until October and send them one after the other into the Senate. That would interfere with everyone’s election campaigns, wouldn’t it?
There are so many wonderful ways that the Democrats could make life as miserable for Trump as he has done for so many Americans.
I’m not going to make any predictions, but several things are notable about this situation.
1) Trump no longer controls the narrative.
2) The narrative is no longer if, but when and how.
3) The Republicans have painted themselves into a corner.
Trump has proudly built his administration on racism, bigotry, misogyny, and the horrifying act of stealing children and leaving them in cages to get sick and die. That is the foundation of the man you, Mr. Ramirez, are defending.

You either believe it is ok for a President to ask a foreign country to interfere in our election to help him win or you don’t.
Everything else is just noise.

Yes the Dems should take more time and investigate the hundreds of crimes Trump has committed and charge him with each one.

Hey, Mike! Conflating two, or more, lies will not produce one truth.
