McCaskill: Trump Will Be Known as a President That Was Impeached for the Rest of His Career
Breitbart ^ | 01/15/2020 | Pam Key

Posted on 01/16/2020 6:17:19 AM PST by ChicagoConservative27

Former Sen. Claire McCaskill (D-MO) asserted Wednesday during MSNBC’s live coverage of the House vote to send the articles of impeachment to the Senate that President Donald Trump “hates” that he will be known as a president that was impeached “for the rest of his career.”

McCaskill said, “Well, the trial already began because the president spent at least a half-hour shamelessly sucking up to the jurors that were in the White House for the China ceremony. I don’t recall a president going through senators name by name by name heaping praise. I mean, this is really a record for him. He usually can’t go that long without talking about himself. So the fact that he could talk about these senators in such glowing terms for so long, he knows that’s his firewall. That the Republican senators have to stop this. They have to — like, staunch the bleeding. And frankly, I think there’s going to be some really uncomfortable Republican senators because with the document dump we got lost night smart Republican senators know it’s going to look terrible if they say we don’t want to see any more documents.”

Trump should wear the title of impeached as a badge of honor. Like Bill Clinton did. Impeached but not forced from office. But, I believe the Democrats have a few “dirty tricks” up their sleeve. A few snares to bring him down. Trump better be ready to move on Top Democrats who have “Bidened” their way into family fortunes (like Nancy’s Son?). Don’t give them a chance to stab a dagger into Trump in their little Trial.

listen up indicted people - according to the liberals, if you’re indicted, even if found later innocent, you’re still stained ‘for life’ = this is our Congress. This is appropriate behavior according to liberals. This is Marxism.

If by Impeached, she means, Wrongfully Accused, then I guess she's right.

Of course, in that regard, I'd much rather go down in history as someone who defended and supported someone who was wrongfully accused than going down in history as the one making false allegations that harmed the country.

Whenever I see Bill Clintoon , I sure don’t have impeachment in the front of my brain. This generations kids, mine are in college, didn’t even know Bill Clinton was impeached for Real Crimes + Lying to a Grand Jury, losing his law license and the “Smith” Judge , the woman Judge who held him “In Contempt” was a Former Student of His!!! I’ll never forget that fact + I let them know. Pelosi was so full of herself, but she didn’t gauge the public reaction correctly and in 5 years, her name will not be on anyone’s lips, as she’ll be 85 then. She’s an 79 year old Skunk right now. LOL
