Enough Republicans, now or after January 20, just might recognize that an impeachment conviction prohibiting Trump from holding public office would be good for the country. It would also be doing them individually and the Republican Party a favor.

That’s a pretty low number that signed on. They don’t say if any Rethugs, but really most members here think what was done isn’t a real constitutional crisis. I don’t care how many days are left. People died, the capitol was trashed because of this one traitor.

Everyday to the end should be one repudiation of that ass after another. The history books are screaming for content that says at least they tried. And others didn’t.

“House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy (D-CA) had criticized the effort on Friday suggesting it would only sow further division.”

OK Kevin. How much farther can we be divided? Trump must be held responsible for the insurrection.

“We’re only a number of days until we can be protected from him,” Pelosi later said.

Anybody know the filing fee on a restraining order to cover all of America?

Sending a lynch mob to the capitol building should have consequences. Moscow Mitch has already said that he won’t schedule a trial until January 19th, but impeachment is still good politics. The republicans will have to either repudiate trumpism and its voters, or vote in favor of lynch mobs that came to hang them (yes, they brought a gallows with a noose, it appears in photos outside the capitol building).

Breaking News on CNN just now said there have been more arrest but none of them are Trump, so full speed ahead with impeachment.

That’s my hope, too. This is not purely symbolic. He’s lost his social media megaphone, and now it’s essential to remove any reason anyone might have to tune in to his BS.

Most of them are too stupid, and too cowardly anyway.
