Let’s just keep Romper Room Impeachment alive as long as we can.

ScatFranNan will be opening her Trump 2020 office after the first of the year.

The report cited the much-criticized impeachment of President Andrew Johnson in 1868 as a positive precedent in making its case.

Over 150 years ago, a President was impeached by the house and acquitted in the senate.

The demonRATs are definitely following that precedent.

How can they be so ignorant?

The unconstitutional “guilty until proven innocent” rule applies only to Republicans that areaccused by Democrats. This banana republic style attempt to destroy our president should be obvious to even the brain-dead in our universities.

SO...let me get this straight...
The swamp critters couldn’t indict Killery for her criminal mishandling of electronic communications that exposed classified information to foreign agencies because Comey the Clown could not find ‘intent’ (motive) in her actions.
BUT...now Jerry the Gut and the Ass-Clown Circus tell us they can impeach the President for legal actions if his motives were illegitimate?

More proof that liberalism is a mental disorder.

Yes it was. They even took a poll to see if the word ‘bribery’ had the most impact in the court of public opinion.

Charging abuse of power here absent the bribery charge is like charging obstruction of justice absent an underlying offense.

Sound like they are going to argue Trumps intentions were bad when he asked about Bidens on the call with Ukraine. In short, he is being impeached for wrongthink.

There is a lot of material here for some GREAT campaign videos for the 2020 election. The whole twisting, turning saga of how the demodopes have altered their accusations over the years — beginning with accusations before Trump won the 2016 election— how those accusations have been hysterically hyped then morphed then dropped then reborn in completely new forms...

I’m no professional but I know enough to predict that this rich history of hysterical stupidity will be well documented and well summarized in some GREAT campaign videos.

Stay tuned.

“abuse of power and obstructing Congress.”

extremely thin gruel: “obstructing Congress” is a Constitutional duty by the President, given his Constitutional veto power and the whole nature of checks and balances in the U.S. Constitution.

and “abuse of power” is simply in the eye of the beholder

neither is a crime or even comes close to a crime

if these anonymous sources are correct regarding the Dems’ change of plans, then the Dems are far bigger fools than almost anyone could have imagined ...

“Abuse of power” was impeachable, even for “legally permissible” actions, if the president also had “illegitimate motives.”

Under this standard the entire Democrat House membership should be impeached since their entire motive for this is political.

Removing 'bribery' and obstruction out of the article makes it easier to vote for censure instead.

Their “abuse of power” means a R President did, or talked about doing, something legal and Constitutional that the D’rats just didn’t like.

Obama, otoh, actually did unConstitutional acts that were indeed an abuse of power. Biden, too, it seems. And other leaders in the Obama D’rat sphere.

This Clown Court of Congress disgraces America.

What’s amazing is so called analysts like Rickie Klayman on CBS This morning cannot see this as a partisan circus. She must have gotten her law degree from the bottom of a cracker jack box.

Tells me they are REALLY having problems keeping their less-Leftish flank onboard with this.

This fits with my oft-stated premise, that a Democrat could kill and eat an infant on the Capital steps, and the press and Congress would applaud it and ask what barbeque sauce they were using, whereas if a Republican sat quietly in a church pew, the press Congress would impeach them for loitering.

I think they are counting on Lindsey Graham and McConnell to see that he is removed. They need the House vote first so they are fixing the language that will get the most votes to send it to the senate. Graham and McConnell will see to it that he is removed. I’ve never said this before but mark my words.

They’ll replace those charges with the time he jaywalked back in 1974.
