Today’s Campaign Update (Because The Campaign Never Ends)
“It’s really a sad day for our country. I feel very sad right now.” – Nancy Pelosi
Oh, yeah, it really is a sad day for our country, San Fran Nan. – The saddest part of all of it is that many of us have known all along that the deranged, despicable, depraved Democrats would take the country down this road sooner or later since the day after Donald J. Trump was elected to the presidency. Every step the Democrat Party has taken, from the creation and funding of Antifa, to the efforts to entrap and frame a sitting President of the United States, to the Mueller Witch Hunt, to the Congressional Clown Circus led by Jabaa the Nadler and Bug Eyes Schiff, has obviously and overtly been designed to lead to yesterday’s crowning moment of shame.
We all knew the depraved Democrat Party would take the nation to this sorry point sooner or later, even though it has still never been able to find any actual legal basis for doing so. We knew this would happen because the Democrat Party no longer has any interest in governing under our constitutional republican system of government, and only cares about the acquisition and maintenance of political power.
This reality has been the case since at least 1992, but has never been rendered more nakedly obvious than it has since the Democrats and San Fran Nan assumed power in the House of Representatives on January 1 of this year. The Judiciary and Intelligence committees chaired by Nadler and Schiff, along with the Oversight committee chaired by the equally depraved Elijah Cummings, have yet to spend a moment of time on any real work for the public interest during the first 9 months of this year, instead maintaining a myopic focus on dummying up some pretense – any old pretense would do – to move towards impeachment of the President.
But here’s the funniest part of yesterday’s antics by Pelosi: Despite all the weasel words she spoke in her statement late in the afternoon, nothing real changed. Pelosi said this:

The only problem here is that an “official impeachment inquiry” has no meaning under the constitution and the law. Pelosi knows that, which is why she used those specific words, and made no reference to mounting a formal impeachment inquiry via a vote of the full House, which would have some meaning under the law.
See, the speaker of the house has no power whatsoever to unilaterally declare a formal impeachment inquiry. None. Doing that requires a majority vote of the entire body of the House. That would mean San Fran Nan would have to somehow cobble together 217 actual, recorded “yes” votes on the floor of the House.
Given that the Democrats currently control 235 seats to 198 (2 seats are vacant) for the Republicans, one might think getting to a simple majority would be an easy task for the doddering, stammering Speaker. But one would be surprised for holding that thought.
Pelosi’s big problem in all of this is that she has 35 or so members who managed to steal districts in the 2018 elections normally held by Republicans. Few if any of those folks, who would like to get re-elected in those same districts next year and been working hard to fool their constituents into believing they are “moderates,” are willing to go on the record as formally supporting a formal impeachment inquiry targeting a Republican president when there are no real grounds for going down that radical road.
So, just as with everything else she and her fellow Democrats do, yesterday’s theatrics by Pelosi were just that: Theater. Dishonest theater. Nothing real will change – those committees will just keep doing what they’ve been doing all year.
The only thing that will change will be the talking points parroted by the Democrat toady media, which will henceforth parrot the words “official impeachment inquiry,” peppering them into every report they make. This is how the mass public brainwashing process works – repetition of key messages is crucial. Goebbels and his fellow Nazis called it the “big lie.”
If you don’t believe that’s what the Democrats are doing here, read this morning’s piece in Politico titled “Vulnerable Democrats fear impeachment messaging stumbles” and count the number of times Democrat members quoted in the piece focus on “messages.” In that 600 or so word piece, I count 15 references to “messages,” “messaging,” “talking points,” or some other iteration of those words. It’s pretty much all they talk about.
The Democrats are very desperate here, because their mass brainwashing efforts keep failing. As of yesterday, President Trump’s public approval rating in the Rasmussen survey stood at 53%, a two-year high and fully 6 points higher than the rating received by Barack Hussein Obama at the same point in his presidency 8 years ago. Trump’s standing in the RealClearPolitics average, which includes all the fake polls created by media outlets purely to drive fake news stories, stands at 45.1%, also a two-year high.
The truth is that Donald Trump is a very popular president when compared to his immediate predecessors in office, Obama and George W. Bush, and his base of support, which represents over 40% of the nation, is steadfastly loyal. Making matters even more desperate for the Democrat “leadership,” such as it exists, is the fact that all the Marxist/fascist promises made by the radicals running for their presidential nomination are backfiring, especially in those swing congressional districts.
The President is going to release the transcript of his call with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky today, along with the complaint by the Democrats’ fake “whistleblower,” an Obama loyalist who has no first-hand knowledge of that conversation. That fake whistleblower will also testify before Bug Eyes and his committee in the coming days.
The transcript will no doubt prove the President said nothing wrong, but the fake media and their Democrat masters will do everything they can to spin it otherwise, or even better, to claim the transcript has been somehow “doctored.” Despicable media hacks at MSNBC and CNN were laying the groundwork for those tactics yesterday.
Make no mistake about this: Regardless of the ongoing brainwashing efforts by the Democrat/Media propaganda complex, if the Democrats move down this road and end up holding a successful impeachment vote in the House, Democrats in those swing districts will pretty much all lose their re-election bids. Any Republican who joins an effort to remove the President via a 2/3rds vote in the Senate will be writing the end to his or her political career. There will be no forgiveness for such a despicable act of sedition, nor should there be.
Finally, should the Senate end up removing the President from office absent any real grounds for doing so, then the social contract between the public and the entire ruling class, already hanging on by a mere thread, will have been severed. If that sad day should come to pass, all bets for our nation’s survival in its current form will be off.
That is all.
She has lost her mind.
Let’s get this party started. Lots of lamp posts need decorating.
Remember when San Fran Nan and Jabba the Nadler couldn’t see an impeachable offense in Rapin Bill Clinton committing felony perjury in the face of a Federal judge?
The Donald will fight back. He is a good communicator.
Nothing here is an accident or not planned. The democrats had to promise their lunatic donors they would impeach Trump. No impeachment, no funding. They got the message. Further, exposing Democrat involvement with foreign governments to destroy the election process has to be stopped. They are facing charges of sedition and extinction, they now have to fight. They have won prior political conflicts with the help of the corrupt media, they think the can control the message and win here. They have latched onto a second had Whistleblower testimony, which on face value is to weak to begin an impeachment process. Why would they act so rashly? Because they believe the message and innuendo is more important than facts, because they control the media. Further, Trump and the economy has survived their latest attack, Trump ratings continue to rise. They feel they must act now.
Trump has been baiting congress to investigate Ukraine-US political environment under the last administration. Included is a quid pro quo for kickbacks to DNC, Hillary, Biden from IMF funds to political campaigns. Further, there is a pressuring by the Obama administration, Brennan, Comey, Kerry, to manufacture evidence against Trump and his administration. The evidence against the democrats is overwhelming already, read John Solomon’s articles. Trump wants free media attention, wants to show Americans who the Democrats and their Global money puppets are.
Trump planned this. Trump has a show like no other planned for the democrats and their seditious cabal. Trump said “The future does not belong to globalists, it belongs to patriots”. He was making fun of Obama, and letting you know ‘he’s got this’
The demonic, vile Botoxian is a tool of Satan.
Once it’s used up, it will discarded like all the rest.
It won’t be long now.
I wonder how many they'll manage in 2020, and with GOP-e help. President Trump may win re-election but will his coattails be enough to overcome it? Show of hands for optimism.
How many millions of armed-to-the-teeth Trump supporters at the capitol building will it take for them to change their minds? I think Bikers for Trump should take Nancy for a little joy ride.
Yep. We all know we this is inevitably going and the faster we get there the better it is.
She doesn’t have much of a mind, but she hasn’t lost it. What she has lost is her leadership. She no longer leads the House demodummies. The squad does.
(HAT TIP REDSHAWK)
REALITY CHECK Pelosi did not establish a formal investigation.
In order to start a formal inquiry WRT impeachment, it requires a house vote.
Pelosi does not want this.
If she was serious, she would have held a house vote yesterday and not a stupid talking-point presser.
Until there is a house vote to start a inquiry, this is all a convoluted scheme to provide cover for Biden and his druggie, worthless son.
Seems like a perfect time for the Tea Party to retire its engines.
That is right. It is the NUTJOBS called the Squad.
Viva Christo Rey
Any requests, subpoenas or communications from any of these committees should be ignored by the president. He should simply state due to the illegal and unconstitutional original of this sham he will not cooperate, period. He should loudly demand that Pelosi and her vulnerable freshmen congresscreeps impeach him or go to hell. I don’t think the democrats and their whores in the media are ready for the barrel of whup ass Trump is about to unleash upon them.
Democrats don’t care about the country.
Yep. The Donald should demand a speedy process. It’s a flimsy charge with few or no witnesses.
If Pelosi fails to get an impeachment majority, Donald wins. If the senate fails to convict, he is vindicated.
Faster, the better.
