It is time for conservatives to hijack the grand old party, and make it the “GRAND NEW REPUBLICAN PARTY”.

So no impeachment, DOA, illustrating this folly.

Say no to censure. Focus on the pandemic and opening the economy, period.

Focus on election integrity period. If HR1 is passed it is open warfare time.

How about neither. Trump had nothing to so with this.

...Trump Impeachment Conviction Unlikely


Unlikely? In a sane world with adult representatives it would be UNTHINKABLE.

We live in interesting times.

I don’t think they care. But I’m curious...”censure” is generally a political punishment of an elected official. Since Trump isn’t in office anymore, which is why they are beginning to realize they can’t have their show trial, how in the world is it possible to censure him?

They’re so obsessed with Trump that it’s stunning. It shows you who they fear.

I'd add opening the economy to that. And opening the schools. Both winners as the ems focus on destroying the country.

A “Censure” would be a badge of honor for Trump.

We have already been through this with Bill Clinton. It was known there were not the votes to impeach so this tactic was suggested. Law professors quickly shot it down as a Bill of Attainder.

I don’t think this will go far. By day two of this ‘game’....I think Leahy will have a health-scare and be taken by ambulance. The Democrats then pretty screwed because while they might have a few lawyers in their midst....none are the competent type for this ‘judge-position’.

At this point, Trump’s lawyers should demand a full trial and drag it on for months. Litigation should be touched off on what the show trial actually is - if Trump is being impeached as President, Roberts has to preside, per the Constitution. If he’s being impeached from some other office, then the house managers need to identify what that office is so that he can be removed from it if he is convicted.

Roberts refusal to participate appears to be a tacit
acknowledgement that this is all unconstitutional, and his sitting it out is his compromise with the deep state.

Bush League Republicans have had a stranglehold on the GOP for 30 years.
Whenever the citizens have nominated a GOP Senate candidate that they did not approve, they worked with Democrats to defeat them in IN, MO, DE, NV, MS, AL.

We need a real new party that will represent the citizen, the GOP never will.

Censure him for what? ANTIFA agitators plotting to take advantage of his completely legitimate rally?

He’s supposed to sit on the sidelines while the opposition commits massive crimes to steal his office?

The ultimate censure for these “Republican” seditionists should come at the ballot box, but we all know that doesn’t mean anything anymore.
