McConnell, who has largely refrained from making grandiose public statements on the House impeachment effort in recent days, briefed GOP senators during a luncheon on Wednesday on the impeachment process via a PowerPoint presentation and urged them to gear up for an impeachment trial in the Senate. He expects this process could heat up next month, around Thanksgiving.

I don’t think it’ll happen, but I’m glad Mitch is doing this. I’m not convinced many congress critters understand their own processes anymore!

“He is comproised after his Obamacare sell out to the Dems and is not to be trusted.”


I know what you mean by this, but he was (IMHO) compromised well before the Obamacare sellout. And, NO, he is NOT to be trusted.

Mitch wants to change judiciary. Trump is integral to that happening.

They don’t care. A lot of Republican Senators would rather a Democrat be in the White House than Trump. A Democrat will follow the swamp. And sell out the country to the globalists.

McConnell can’t gain anything from scheduling a trial in the Senate.
If he does so, he will have the House charge studied in some sort of special committee for the next 5 years, first

"If the GOP votes to remove him oh, we should probably march on DC and take the place over by force. Regain control of our stolen government"

Yes we should; otherwise voting via the ballot box will be meaningless and we will be reduced to subjugated serfs by the anti-American coup.

The only people being blindsided are Trump and us. McConnell preparing for what? based on what? There are no articles of impeachment; no vote and all is being conducted behind closed doors? McConnell needs to verbalize what it is, a railroad job, instead of lending it credibility by 'announcing' that the GOP needs to be prepared and giving it a timeline.

The repubics have repeatedly shown us they are not supporting Trump. 11 senators just voted to strip him of his authority of emergency declarations thereby stopping funding for the wall. 100 House repubics voted with dems yesterday on a resolution condemning the withdrawl from Syria. Including Scalise.

Trust the republicans? Hell no

Trump is threatening the existence of perpetual war. That can’t be tolerated.

Maybe they prefer a Dem President over Trump...but do they still favor that at the cost of losing their seat in the Senate? We have to make it plain to them that those are EXACTLY the stakes.

McConnell doesn’t have to do anything, he can and should Dismiss the Complaint for the secret process the inquiry/inquisition was performed.

I agree with you. Not a fan of McConnell either - but he’s put the word out there that the GOP Senate had better be ready for this.

Right after that comes the "tree decorating".

Trump doesn’t care and neither do we woke conservatives/constitutionalists/patriots. We will keep fighting within the limits of the law. There are more Trumps out there than the leftists can impeach.
