Perhaps one of the most insightful comments I’ve ever read on free republic. Totally truthful and to the point.

And absolutely frightening.

F’ing with the process instead of reporting on the process.

It must me a heck of a lot easier making it up than to just report on what it is ...especially if you don’t agree with what it IS.

THEN you can make it the way you want! Not the real world. F A K E

‘Patriotic Duty’ to Get Trump...

Pretty much the thinking within the corrupt FBI in 2016, That's how the whole Russia Collusion hoax started.

And you wonder why I’ve banned CNN and MSNBC on my cable system at home.

Mika, Camerota, push for impeachment more passionately than the Dem candidates.

I remember when The Media would have had us "censure and Move On" from Bill "I Committed Actual Serious Felonies" Clinton....

Too bad they didn’t have the rocket scientist, aka Peach Mint 45, to lend credibility to their ignorance.

These people have been reading the script “Get Shorty” far too fervently.

They really think this time, it will finally work in their favor.

Fake-outs and frame-ups all the way through, with little regard for polite proprieties or much in the way of empathy.

Because their patriotism is of the kind that Samuel Johnson described: “the last refuge of a scoundrel. “

MSNBC and CNN are going for the ‘hate ratings’ they’ve been riding for the past two years.

Take that away and they tank ... both of em.

Fox will be joining them if they continue to go left with Baer and Wallace. Second, no conservatives I know are going to watch any democrat townhalls or rallies. It will be Trump’s 2020 rallies that bring in the ratings.

With 50% or less of the people supporting the
impeachment of Trump it sounds like those who
are vocally in support would also be in favor
of a war. That is what it would take. Ready for
that?

They gave it their best shot last time, coming up with only "collusion," for which the media did their damndest to paint as a fait accompli--a crime. Even Mueller couldn't endorse that with any indictments.

For impeachment, they'll be no more constrained than before but their goal remains the same, nonetheless, if they dare. Impeachment requires one or more "high crimes and[/or] misdemeanors."

This time around, no Strzok or McCabe will be able to pretend that the emanations of a counter-intel probe could be interpreted as PDJT helping Russians to overturn Wisconsin or Michigan or Florida's election results.

"What could they possible throw against the wall?" you ask. Since the House has no Controlling Legal Authority (to borrow a phrase from that great legal mind, AlGore *hack, ptui*) in their voting on an impeachment, the implication on which they pose, ready to claim, is: A high crime or misdemeanor is whatever the hell we say it is and there's nothing you can do about it!

Well, in some sense, they'd be correct. There is little the populace or courts could do to overturn an impeachment vote once it's taken--no matter how wrong their interpretation is. However, US voters needn't feel compelled to vote for any Dem House candidate for the 2020 election, either.

The Senate would make short work of any frivolous impeachment article(s), making the House Dems eat crow and look bad, despite the inevitable media spin machine.

So, would they take such a risk on a self-defined "flyer" to impeach PDJT, knowing there can be no removal? Since therein does lie quite a bit of ultimate "Controlling [ ] Authority," I'm sure the answer is "no" given what we know today.

Only their progressive trial balloons like Fauxcahontas are that irredeemably stupid. At the same time, I'm sure they'll allow more outlier trial balloons to be launched--to distract from their lack of agenda to move the country forward in the interests of its voters.

MSNBC and CNN are revealing themselves to be more passionate pro-impeachment partisans than even the Dem presidential candidates!

Exactly why is this a surprise? There is no way that other than making sound and fury, there are more than a few of the most extreme Democrats who are pushing impeachment. That being the case, the plan for the Deep State is for the enemedia to do the impeachment. This gives the DemonRats all the benefits of doing impeachment and none of the downside.
