OK, Gary, pull the peanut butter out of your ears so you can hear this. The main reason the Democrats aren’t impeaching Trump, despite the clear evidence that was given, is because Republicans in the Senate will not convict him. Your cartoon is just plain stupid, much lake the rest of your offerings lately. Please stop doing a Lester (even though you do it with better artwork).
At a press conference yesterday, Speaker Pelosi said the reason Trump wasn’t being impeached was that the facts weren’t yet of their side and that the decision not to impeach had nothing to do with politics. Bullbleep!!! If it was about the facts, impeachment hearings would have started six months after Trump’s inauguration. For Pelosi, it is all about the politics.
If.. in spite of all the evidence.. the democrats are afraid to enforce laws.. they might as well concede their right to govern. Whether or not.. the senate goes along should not be part of the decision. If, a crime has been committed it is not the duty of those responsible to at least attempt to seek justice. Take the moral high ground and do your duty, if you loose the next election because of it.. so be it. At least you will be able to look into a mirror without shame.
More and more, I’m coming to the opinion that impeachment is the House’s obligation under the Constitution. Whenever the President exhibits such behavior that demonstrates treason, obstruction of justice, and violations of the constitution, it is the House’s duty to go to impeachment. It is likely that Trump will not be removed from office, but that is irrelevant. While there’s still time, House of Representatives, do your job!
As to the fear that Trump will be reelected due to making him look like a scapegoat to his supporters, just as happened with Clinton, remember, Bill isn’t Don. Bill was impeached for lying about his sex life. Don has committed treasonous offenses. There’s a wide gulf between the two presidents in this matter. To borrow a phrase from Ross Perot’s campaign, “Just, do it!”
As Plato says in the Republic, “the surest signs of a bad leader are narcissism and self-indulgence. The poor statesman is an eloquent flatterer, who relies on his ability to entertain the masses with speeches and comic turns, but doesn’t bother to develop a coherent view of the world.” -The Economist, June 22, 2019.
The Democrats have their tool to impeach Trump. Draw up the articles of impeachment. Investigate everything and bring all the facts out in the open. Impeachment can only happen if the House votes it to the Senate. Pelosi controls if the vote is taken so that it does not have pass to the Senate until all the facts are brought to light. By then everyone should have all the reasons that he should be impeached.
Varvel’s job is to sow FUD and discord amongst the Democrats. Pelolsi’s job is to do the best job for our nation that she can, and incidentally keep the House Democrats rowing together in more or less the same direction.
Got evidence of collusion or obstruction of an investigation based on the bogus Steel Dossier, that should not have taken place to start with.LET’S SEE IT!
After over two years of a B. S. investigation that they knew was crud to start with ,no one was charged with colluding with the Russians.Why do you Dims think that was?
It was obvious from Mueller’s testimony that he did not write the report nor was he all that familiar with it.So which Hillary donor was in charge and who wrote the report?
In October 2015, before the official start of the 2016 Republican primary campaign, The Washington Free Beacon, an American conservative political journalism website primarily funded by Republican donor Paul Singer, hired the American research firm Fusion GPS to conduct general opposition research on several Republican presidential candidates, including Trump.
Contrary to repeated assertions by Trump, Fox News, and many of his supporters, the dossier was not the impetus for the opening of the FBI’s “Crossfire Hurricane” counterintelligence investigation into the Russian interference in the 2016 presidential election campaign. – wiki
Gee, Gary, 45 sure tried hard to impede the investigation. I’d kinda like to know why. Wouldn’t you?
Is he a grafter? Grifter? Inept? Temperamentally unfit? Intellectually lacking?
He was the preferred candidate of our Russian adversaries. Did they want him in office because he would be a weak opponent? Did they see him as susceptible to the influence of business opportunities, like that Trump Tower Moscow project? Did they have the ability to blackmail him?
Is it his pride (spelled fragile ego_)? (_Didn’t need no Russhuns helpin’ me win no ’lection. I done it all by myself, just like I made all that money all by myself.)
He constantly distorts reality to conform to a world he imagines. Is he deluded? A con-man? In so far over his head that bluff and bluster are the only tools he has to cope with the job?
If we better understand what brought us here, maybe we will avoid his like in the future.
Investigate on. Begin an impeachment inquiry. His perfidy must be put on display.
