President Trump wants to step up efforts to protect Republican control of the House in hopes of avoiding an impeachment debate and congressional investigations if Democrats seize the chamber, according to GOP sources.

He is telling the truth and exposing the left. That is why they want to impeach him.

Somebody needs to tell the RATS that “you beat us!” is not sufficient cause for impeachment.

Impeachment is a political, not a legal, act.

If the Democrats wanted, they could impeach and remove him for wearing a red tie.

I would love to see the Dems run on impeachment.

I can’t think of anything that would destroy the “impending Blue wave” more than that.

I get the impression that the left is looking for a shooting war? Just an impression.

We need a massive turnout to build on our majorities. In the future we can take away the rat sword and start impeaching every “D” seat from dog catcher on up. Let’s play their nasty game and teach them that karma can be a bitch. It’s beyond time to play hardball with any anti-American traitors.

Impeachment should not even be discussed. There is no legal grounds for it.

They don’t have the guns. They just think we’ll roll over. We aren’t our congresspeople.

It is just as important to Cantorize the weasels wearing R jerseys out of office as it is to defeat Democrats.
They want the same things.
Amnesty for illegal aliens and no enforcement.

They don’t seem to grasp that impeaching Trump means they’ll need to get used to saying President Pence.

That doesn't stop the left judges, legislatures or deep staters.

Why would they worry? Pence is a mainline GOP K Street corportist. The globalist agenda would be right back on track with him as POTUS.

Spineless Ryan and Gutless Turtle Face, the two Eunuchs in Congress, are a hindrance to the midterms. The Deplorables must work to get out the vote and to expose the RAT/Soros voter fraud. This needs to be done like yesterday.

Somebody needs to tell the ‘pub swampthings that they just might have thrown their majority and the nation onto the trash heap of failed civilizations by not doing their job.

I think this was once considered in the past.
