If Mueller was intent on Russia collusion he’d be going after Hillary, Obama, et al. His mission is simple: get Trump any way he can and do so on our tax dollars. Disgusting. If he had any scruples he’d end this farce.

“Neither of them has a say on impeachment. They will only have a vote on removal if the House impeaches.”

The House votes on impeachment which is somewhat similar to a grand jury. If indicted by a simple majority it then goes to the Senate for trail. A Senate conviction requires an affirmative two thirds majority vote which would be sixty seven yes votes. Even if the Republicans should lose the Senate in 2018 it won’t be by a sufficient number to get a conviction. Dem’s are having a wet dream.

This is a cancer they do not want to cut out. This is just another element of diversion they can use with the scumedia to plague Trump and his administration from doing what he set out to do.

Firing a moron rises to the level of high crimes in their eyes but crapping on the American public with their lies is honorable. Where is Guy Fawkes when you need him.

Stop snoring and wake up, bear.

How many Republican Senators do you think would vote to convict right now, today, if given the chance?

Only 19/51 are needed, remember?

How many flatlined knuckle-draggers are there in Arizona and South Carolina that elect these bozos?

Both these prigs think they have what it takes to be President - toe-sucking lackeys aren’t immune to dreaming, I suppose....

Although I would not at all put it past these two pricks to stab Trump in the back, I am inclined to ignore such comments, especially when made in response to leading questions by the likes of Hugh Hewitt.

Even when true, these are fake news narratives, calculated to stir up trouble and highlight infighting amongst Trump supporters, to the advantage of the Uniparty.

Trump is nowhere even remotely close to being impeached. He is strong and getting stronger. He is simply not at at risk of actually being impeached.

Having said that, the calculated strategy of pushing a false narrative that Trump is weak and on the verge of impeachment, and/or mutiny from within his own party can do political damage, even though it has no chance of resulting in actual impeachment.

These narratives should be countered whenever possible. It is tempting to pay lip service to such propaganda in order to voice our contempt for traitors like these two - but the left knows that and uses it against us.

The left looks for opportunities to play our contempt for RINOs against us. It’s a win win win for them: they get to talk about Trump facing impeachment, they get to talk about Trump facing mutiny from within his own party, they get to talk about divisions in Trump’s support base, they get to avoid talking about the abject corruption of the Democrat party, the hijacking of America by the deep state, and the raging hypocrisy and dishonesty of the MSM.

At this point I say make them pull the trigger. CW 2.0 is inevitable, so let’s get things underway.

No, Graham was correct. He said he would vote for impeachment f there were offenses. If there were no crimes, then there would be no vote

Fake post

“Grounds to Impeach.” Anything is grounds to impeach, even obvious fantasy or just a majority of Congressmen want to impeach. You simply say the phrase “high crimes and misdemeanors.” It is a political act and does not relate to crimes and misdemeanors except that the phrase is useful as it is the wording in the Constitution. Because HC&D is not defined in the Constitution it can consist of it being alleged that the President does not brush his teeth after eating or, even more basic, We Just Don’t Like You.

Fire Mueller when he ceases being useful to you, Mr. President.

You do not need an actual crime to impeach the President. Andrew Johnson was impeached for firing an official he was quite within his prerogative to fire as he had appointed him. No “actual crime” was alleged or shown. Impeachment is dependent upon having enough votes to impeach, nothing other. It is deemed prudent to have some “reasons” for impeachment that the vooters could possibly accept as legitimate.

Yeah, you may be right. Forgot about the Never Trump Bunch - such as Lindsay Graham.
