Progressive Friendly Quinnipiac Shows Impeachment Under Water

Talk about a change of subject. Trump's fan completely ignored what I said and inquired about my health. Wheee!

 

I watched the hearing today, and, again, the Republicans avoided the evidence against Trump. Some said the evidence didn't prove anything, but not one Republican could explain that premise using the evidence itself. They constantly brought up unrelated topics, quoting Presidents Washington, Andrew Johnson, Harrison, Jackson, Truman, and Obama. They brought up Russian interference in our elections, the Mueller Report, the FISA courts, Steele dossier, and Carter Page (who?).

I could go on, but the reader gets my point.

They tried to confuse matters by ignoring the unique nature of impeaching the President. They brought up routine examples of executive privilege throughout our history. They ignored what our Constitution says about impeachment. Article 1 Section 2 says:

The House of Representatives "shall have the sole Power of Impeachment" (Article I, section 2) and that "the Senate shall have the sole Power to try all Impeachments ...

Sole power, not the President and not the courts. In other words, when it comes to impeachment, there is no executive privilege. Congress has the sole power to determine what witnesses and what documents it needs to protect our Constitution from the impeachable offenses of the President.

By refusing to comply with court ordered subpoenas, Trump clearly committed obstruction, and quoting George Washington doesn't change that.

I almost felt sorry for the Republicans on the committee. They were helpless. Almost, they were defending a President who broke our laws and is a threat to our Constitution and our national security.

 

I am weary of clowns moaning day and night about Trump when I’ve been telling them Trump will not be a problem if they put up a better candidate. Turns out this complaining about Trump is just something to do to occupy time, because the alternatives to Trump you’ve come up with verify without a doubt that you prefer another four years of Trump. Have it your way....

 

I'm not a Trump fan, but I really do want to know if you're doing okay...

 

I am weary of posters who post the same crap, over and over, in multiple threads across the board. But carry on, carry on.

 

I'm surprised they cover the Republicans at all. They all scream into the microphone the same few things over and over and over again.
Zelenskiy didn't know the aid was withheld. They finally got their aid. Over and over. For some reason they think the clock stopped at the phone call.

 

Are you being cute? Or are you really ignorant on the mythology used in good polls.

 

No, I'm quite aware of that mythology.
