Why isn't Brandon risking impeachment right now? Oh, that's right, he's got cover from everyone.

The Democrats will push him out before then.

The thing is impeachment gets us Kamala, or possibly Pelosi.

Nightmare no matter what.

They don’t seem to list any reasons. Just the process.

"Joe Biden Risks Impeachment if Democrats Lose Both House and Senate"

HA!

Not unless medical science perfects testicular and spinal transplants for the Republicans in the House and Senate.

Impeachment for threatening democrats not for stealing the White House and subsequently ruining the country

That is who runs this country

He should be defecating in his diapers at what could be looming. Wait, he already is :) As long as he gets the same treatment as J6 prisoners I will only be halfway PO’ed.

Republicans will never impeach him — under any circumstances.

They have no principles, convictions or courage.

several Republicans indicated that GOP majorities would move in that direction

"Impeachment" without conviction is just, you should pardon the expression, jerking off.

And the idea that there will be 67 votes in the Senate to remove Biden is just so absurd - how could a person called "Darragh Roche" even write such a thing?

After losing Pennsylvania, I don't even see how the GOP will control the Senate next year. If they do control the Senate, I suppose 52-48 could be possible.

But remove Biden? Tell me another one.

Joe Biden Risks Impeachment if Democrats Lose Both House and Senate

This "Well Duh!" moment brought to you by the editors and journalists of Newsweak.

Two-thirds vote of Senate to convict.

If GOP should get 55 seats, 12 Dems would have to join them. Today’s Dems? Ain’t happenin’.

Yes, there are plenty of real reasons to impeach.

They’re not going to have 2/3 Senate no matter what.

Sounds like they want to waste time on empty gestures.

Articles of impeachment can be passed by a simple majority vote in the House but a president can only be removed by a two-thirds majority vote in the Senate. This has never happened and it appears unlikely Republicans will have the necessary number of seats in 2023.

Take a page from the Democrats. Pause the Senate vote at 3:00AM, then discover 2,391 Senate votes in favor of conviction.

If the Rs take the House, I don’t necessarily want Brandon out of office. I want a slow, grinding set of House Articles of Impeachment to freeze him from doing anything else. It’s time to expose it all and take down as many others as possible.

Impeachment would just make Biden the victim.

...former President Trump's unfounded claims that the 2020 presidential election suffered from fraud

Newsweak just had to get that in, which will tell us everything we need to know about the rest of the article. It's good, earnest advice given to the Republicans by their best buddies, partisan Democrats. "Don't do what we did. There will be...trouble..."

Unmentioned in this steaming crock is that not only would removal from office require Democrat help, but they might just get it if Dementia Joe slides any more down that long, slippery slope to complete senescence. At least they couldn't be blamed for Harris any more than they already are.

Still, the entire "it isn't political grandstanding when we do it but it is if you do" trope is simply unworkably lame, possible only to myopic activists who really do think they control all the terms of debate through clever keyboard acrobatics in front of a stupefied and gullible audience. Harry Reid's antics with the filibuster were for a temporary advantage that turned around to bite them in the nether regions and impeachment will be no different.

This is Newsweek fear mongering the rat base nothing more. In the unlikely event we could beat the cheat machine and get the Senate back there is no chance they have the stones to remove Biden by impeachment. There is real chance for the 25th to kick in at the rate Biden is fading.

There will not be any Impeachment, Joe’s handlers will be told what might happen and that it would be best for country for Joe to retire and that is what will happen.

Then we get Kamala who has no clue on anything and will not get anything passed in Congress at all and will go on to make a complete fool of herself and set women back 30 years.

The best that could happen is if this senile old man would run in 2024. It would disrupt the democrats primary plans. Keep him in office as a figurehead. A republican house and senate could counter balance any damage he could do in the mean time. A republican congress can fix election laws to limit the cheating next time.
