Joe Biden: Congress ‘no alternative’ but impeachment if Trump blocks followup of Mueller’s findings
CNBC ^ | April 30, 2019 | by Kevin Breuninger

Democratic 2020 frontrunner Joe Biden said Congress will have “no alternative” but pursuing impeachment if President Donald Trump or his associates block investigations based on special counsel Robert Mueller’s Russia report.

In an interview with ABC’s “Good Morning America” broadcast Tuesday, Biden said that Mueller’s 448-page report on Russian election interference included “about seven or eight things that are left undone.”

“The Congress is attempting to take that up” for investigation as they should be doing, said Biden, who launched his presidential campaign last week. “And if in fact [Trump or his associates] block the investigation, they have no alternative but to go to the only other constitutional resort they have,” which Biden said “is impeachment.”

Biden has taken aim squarely at Trump since announcing his candidacy, and now has established his own line in the sand on impeachment. But he said in the ABC interview that “my job in the meantime is to make sure he’s not back as president of the United States of America.”

The White House did not immediately provide a comment on Biden’s remarks.

Biden won’t last long. He’s visibly old and confused, boring, no passion, no message....no actual support.

If Creepy Joe is not registered as a sex offender by FBI, Trump should issue executive order to designate him as such.

There were no indictments. That is the only follow-up that matters.

So...the most moderate Dem candidate just cast his lot with the impeachment crazies.

Excellent! This is working out better for Trump than I could have imagined.

impeach for WHAT, Joe?

Since you’ve got zero evidence of any wrongdoing...
you’ll obviously have to make up a charge

and we’re just curious what you have in mind?

thanks

He can say whatever he wants about the coup, because slow-joe know there will be no investigators of the investigation. No one will be held to account. And those who put their faith in barr will be sorely disappointed.

Well then, Crazy Uncle Joe, by your standard, should congress have impeached Obama when Attorney General Eric Holder refused to release documents to congress and was held in contempt?

I mean, it's your standard, after all. I just want to clarify your position.

“about seven or eight things that are left undone.”
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Biden is right. I can think of a few things that are undone;

1. Hillary isn’t in prison yet.
2. Hussein isn’t in prison yet.
3. Comey...same
4. Brennan...same
5. McCabe
6. Strzok
7. Page
8. Ohr and his old lady.

Trump should wait until Gropin Joe is anointed at the Democrat National Convention next year, delivers the acceptance speech, and then Federal law enforcement arrests Plugs on stage for sedition and groping little girls.

“about seven or eight things that are left undone.”

I can think of a LOT of things that are “undone” where Democrats are concerned - starting with their brains and morals.

Agree 100%. And besides, the DNC wants a full-blown communist in 2020.

But “Mueller’s Russia report” found nothing, Joe....you knucklehead........
