    Basically it's "Trump must go because he won't play ball". Establishment republicans, democrats, neocons and the American hating left faction of the democrat party will ripthe country apart in order to get rid of him.
    They didn't impeach him for being a treasonous Russian asset but they impeached him for making a phone call.. Makes sense.

    Not to anyone who actually paid attention to the whole thing. Frankly, since I had to remind you what country this was even about, this isn't surprising.

    Is there anyone actually gullible enough to think he was only impeached for "making a phone call"? Who did you hope to fool with that? I guess Clinton was impeached for having an intern, huh?

    Democrats: "We pulled our subpoenas because there is just too important and we don't have the time."

    ten minutes later...

    Democrats: "Why won't the republicans subpoena the people we didn't? They're protecting Trump!"

    That's nonsense. Politicians follow the same general bell curve as any other profession in any metric you want to apply- intelligence, patriotism honesty, etc.
    You people love to rag on politicians as if they're not the same people as you or I. I suspect that you do it to try to level the playing field for a dotard like trump.

    He was impeached. Read the manual before you embarrass yourself any further.

    Was that phone call his first official act on day one? Because that was when the cabal leading the DNC began planning their little charade.

    He did that. You can tell yourself a thousand times that he didn't, but it doesn't change the fact that he did. They didn't even bother to base the defense on denying it. It was based on the concept that the President is above the law and can abuse power as he wishes.

    I do hope Trump supporters remember that when he is out of power. Because I expect Biden to use this precedent that Republicans left behind, not to favor himself like Trump did, but to rebuild the country when it will be needed in the face of what we know Republican obstructionism will be.

    No, he did not do that and the investigation that cost so much money, time and hatred didn't prove that he did. Nobody has tried to say any American is above the law except, of course, these left wing groups that are trying to burn down our cities and the left wing governors that support them while they do.

    The biggest abuse of power I have ever seen has been the campaign by the DNC and their puppet media system to cause this President to fail. Biden is not going to be the one in Washington holding the reins of power and the left does not want to rebuild this country, Trump does. The left wants globalism and to get there they are promising unicorns. If Trump loses, watch how fast Biden is put aside for his VP and the unicorn riders discover that the freedom they planned is as mythical as their mounts. If we continue down this path Americans are going to be killing Americans again in numbers much greater than they are today. You're pretty smart so I suspect you know all this, you just think it can be controlled once the left is driving the bus. What a surprise you are all headed for.

    Heartburn asked what had Trump done wrong. He did not ask what a bunch of silly coup members claimed he did wrong.

    xcept Trump never extorted anybody to help him get elected. The term election never came up in Trump's phone call other than in reference to the president of Ukraine's victory. However I don't remember if it was in Schiff's totally made up "transcript" of the call that Schiff recited.

    Sorry... Not interested in debating this with somebody who didn't follow the case and just repeats the wingnut media talking points with no real arguments. My arguments were properly documented in the many threads where this was discussed. So your "no he didn't!" argument is noted, but it's not very convincing.

    He did exactly what those "silly coup members" claim and proved he did (beyond a reasonable doubt), and Trump's own hand-picked National Security Adviser confirmed recently. So looks like the fact that you're a "silly coup member" doesn't always mean you're wrong.

    And, of course, if you don't express your crime out loud and why you are committing it, then you're innocent, right?

    Sorry, but the truth sometimes hurts. I've got more for you. If Trump was impeached for having a phone call, then . . .

    Charles Manson went to prison for having a fan club
    Timothy McVeigh went to prison for owning fertilizer
    Bernie Madoff went to prison for having investments

    This is actually kind of fun.
