Remember all that yammering about invoking section 4 of the 25th amendment? That ship has sailed now that dipshit is completely surrounded by loyalists, but this is how far we’ve come. That letter proves the incapacitated case more than the impeachment case.

It was a constitutional remedy meant for a President like him who put his personal interests over that of the nation,” Schiff said. “This President believes he is the state, that he can do no wrong, under article two he can do anything he wants. Well, he can’t. He’s not a king. He’s not our ruler. He’s an elected president who can be removed for abusing his power, and that he has done.”

Get down with your bad self Adam!!!

Better to remain silent and be thought a fool than to send a 6-page rant and to remove all doubt.

Since plan A (Impeachment & Removal) is going nowhere and plan B (25th Amendment) is not going to happen, democrats should go with plan C, start laughing at him and call him fat, dumb and ugly on national TV, that might just cause him to burst an artery. (say that his hotels are crappy and wife a silicon monstrosity too, yeah childish but it will work)

Next question: now that the two articles are in process, does that end Chairman Schiff’s investigation? Can he give McConnell the finger and pick right up with subpoenaing (hey, that has all the vowels!) Bolton, Pompeo, Giuliani, etc., even if it draws the extended court fight?

Better to phrase it as “Many people are saying that Trump is fat, dumb and ugly.”

N.B. deplorables: You think Trump is tough? You say finally a president with balls? You’re idiots. You have no idea what tough is. Adam Schiff is tough, he’s smart, and he has more balls than any 99 of you clowns. He’s a grown-ass man who doesn’t call people names or care about names anyone calls him. You want to talk about locking people up? He did that for a living. He’s a real-life action hero and when he comes after you look out. You don’t know what tough is and neither does Trump but you and he are going to learn. We’re baring the iron hand now.

45 said that government should be run like a business.

If he ruins the USA brand then he should be ousted like any other CEO would be.

I don’t have a medical degree. If any sane person has been watching Trump since 2015 would know he is not well.

“Attached is a letter we received on December 18, 2019. I feel that you should be aware that some asshole is signing your name to stupid letters.”

That comment about Guatemala and how they handle things over there was a direct threat towards Schiff. As predictable as that is, we should never get used to those type of comments delivered by a reckless President who believes he is the law. Incredibly irresponsible, vile, and unredeemable. My only surprise here is that he knows Guatemala’s history or did Steven Miller whisper murderous nothings into his ear?
