Yep. Not for a President. Or don’t they get that the whole checks and balances built into our Constitutional Republic kinda exists just to prevent Congress’ overreaching their legislative duties?
interesting read. But I see nothing that applies to President’s conduct.
Are those really i? They are laughable. Especially the 2nd taken in light of Schiff and Nadler’s despotic handling of the proceedings.
Well...the Dems are using it....read their articles.
“What happened to quid pro quo and bribery??”
They joined Global Warming..to be renamed something else?
I am already reading fiction for my own pleasure. But I am glad to see that Congress has branched out into literary arts. Do they have an agent?
Yeah, that’s the ticket. We’re gonna need a lot of bullets!
Yup, those are them. . .
What sad sorry time for a Satirist.

Obstruction of Congress is why he won the election.
Dims are such dips.
It kills me when people remark about how “clever” they are.
In the long run...PFFFT!
President Trump was asking President Zelensky to investigate someone who was breaking the laws of both the USA and Ukraine where those laws were broken, in Ukraine, the only place they could be investigated, regardless of whether Joe Biden might eventually be selected from a field of almost 100 Democrats who had filed as presidential candidates. Only the Ukrainians could investigate Hunter Biden’s involvement with and hiring by Burisma Holdings in Ukraine.
We can’t send FBI agents to Ukraine to turn over rocks looking for slugs, and compel testimony from corrupt Ukraine citizens, therefore the only method we have is to request the investigation from the Ukraine government. It is entirely appropriate to request that investigation from them, and for our president to ask their president. It is also appropriate to find out BEFORE we are presented with the possibility of having a corrupt candidate running as the Presidential candidate for a major party. That is not interfering in the election, but rather properly vetting the potential candidate.
Would this be a problem if President Trump were in his second term and not running for reelection? It would not. . . because it is conditional on his running. That makes it absurd.
It is pure speculation as to which one of those 100, or the top 20, or top ten, of five, might actually become the presumptive candidate. It is entirely likely that Biden will not be the actual Democrat candidate for president in 2020 given his foot-in-mouth disease, his predilection for fondling little school girls, and in this day of #metoo his need to sniff the hair of every woman he gets with in groping range. I’m surprised he’s survived to now.
Make the democrats pay next election.
They are impeaching for "obstruction of justice," because President Trump went to the courts for protection of his rights, and "obstruction of Congress" because he asserted executive privilege.

As soon as the votes, and if it’s a vote not to convict, the House dems are just going to start up more impeachment proceedings and investigations. Rinse, and repeat until the November election.
