United States Corrupt Twattery

Yup but if it doesn't pass The Senate vote by 2/3 he doesn't get removed from office.

Have to wait and see then. Not all Pubs were on Trump's side.

 

[Scouse]

He ain't getting impeached. It's just democrat noise.

 

[caLLous]

It's not noise - he's clearly guilty as sin - it's just his side are in control of the final step. The GOP will desert him at some point in an act of self-preservation, it just depends when that happens. Nunes is probably fucked as well.

 

[Gwadien]

It is interesting though that in American politics it wouldn't really have a long term negative effect on the Republicans as a whole, but if that was in the UK, the Tories wouldn't be voted in for very long time if he's found guilty.

Trump has asked them to try to impeach him.

 

[caLLous]

He challenged them to do it as a stupid threat, then they announced the impeachment articles and he started crying on Twitter. Exactly how far up his backside are you?

LA Times too:

Editorial: We've seen enough. Trump should be impeached

 

[Wij]

It’s out.

Spoiler. The FBI launched an investigation into Paul Manafort for money laundering in Ukraine in January 2016, months before he joined the trump campaign.

But apparently trump is really concerned about corruption in Ukraine.

Democrats unveil Trump impeachment charges

 

[Job]

And at the same time have offered Trump a huge victory in his Mexico/ Canada trade deals by announcing bipartisan success to talks they opposed.

They have done it to cover up the impeachment disaster and are basically admitting hes going nowhere.

 

[caLLous]

This trade deal?

USMCA trade deal with Mexico, Canada strikingly similar to NAFTA

Democrats, labor groups and other critics mocked the new trade proposal as “NAFTA lite” when Trump announced the agreement last year after more than a year of talks with Mexico and Canada.

House Democrats insisted on revisions before they would allow the deal to be put to a vote. After months of negotiations with the Trump administration, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi announced a series of changes to the deal on Tuesday, including stronger provisions Democrats had wanted on labor, enforcement and pharmaceuticals.

What a "huge victory"...

This trade deal?

What a "huge victory"...

So he criticised a deal that he made with a group of other countries by his predecessor, then he does his own deal which is very similar to the deal he criticised?

That sounds familiar!

 

[Job]

Yes..because he did it personally..everyone lost their shit and the Dems ripped him a new one and when they realised it was going well they stepped in to get a bit of glory.

Suddenly from nowhere they are announcing how great it was, undoubtedly they are trying to side track the conversation from impeachment, because it will be another dead duck.

 

[Embattle]

You know even with all this the chance of him actually getting impeached is almost zero.

 

[caLLous]

Him being impeached is all but a certainty, it's the trial that follows that will most likely go his way.

 

[dysfunction]

Well he has been impeached:

Donald Trump impeached by House of Representatives in historic vote

Hopefully the trial also finds him so and he is removed from office.

Nancy Pelosi Just Made a Major Impeachment Power Play

Excellent move by Pelosi. Everybody (including McConnell obviously) assumed the articles of impeachment would go straight to the Senate. Make the fucker sweat and make McConnell have to defend his stance, which he's already said won't be impartial.

 

[Job]

Excellent move?

We are watching the left destroy itself in full view....only never trumpers will fail to see through this as anything but shit throwing and feet dragging, because they have no worthy contender.
His poll rating went up and more importantly support for impeachment dropped.
The real people will see it as it is, an attack on democracy, the 'evidence' doesnt stack up as anything anyone gives a shit about.
Voters who despise Trump are going to defend his right to be an ass.

 

[dysfunction]

Just because you have high poll ratings doesn't mean you can do anything you like.

 

[caLLous]

Excellent move?

Yes, an excellent move. McConnell (who is supposed to be impartial) came out the other day and said he was coordinating with the White House and wouldn't be "an impartial juror". He blew his load early apparently without thinking that the articles wouldn't go straight to the Senate. By holding on, Pelosi is forcing him to defend his (indefensible) position. It's inspired.

Also "never Trumpers"... you even talk like him ffs. He isn't going to be friends with you if you suck up to him on a forum on the other side of the world, you know that right?

 

[Wij]

She should hold on until the senate agrees to let the relevant witnesses testify. What's the point in a quick show trial and acquittal? That's what Trump wants.

They can play this all election saying "Trump says that the first-hand witness accounts such as Pompeo would clear him but he won't let him testify..."

 

[Scouse]

Isn't there a constitutional requirement to push the articles through the senate as fast as possible?

Nope. Each house can make its own rules. Senate rules can't bind the House of Reps. Article 1.

Gathering more evidence, dropping quid pro, endless dems talking about the forefarthers.

They have nothing...just nothing and everyone can see that, followed by six weeks of house shutdown debating it, when they should be campaigning and helping to run the country.
The claims are farcical and Trump is just going to carry oon and make them look irelevent.
