YESS!!! I can’t believe Pelosi is actually doing this on the timetable I had wanted!!! I said several months ago that a Christmas impeachment/Jan trial would be ideal for Dems politically because it would set them up nicely for the 2020 campaign.

Too bad for Lieu that there’s no proxy system.

Concur…but we have to do something about the Gloom Patrol. Moscow McConnell has given us a gift by announcing (to the Nation) that Trump now owns him.

And on another thread they are preparing for interment.

I don’t worry about the Gloom patrol. Trump isn’t popular, and no, white voters aren’t going to vote for him by any higher a percentage or margin than they did in 2016 just because of his white nationalism. Higher chance his vote contracts than expands among white voters. I watched Netanyahu go to the racist well too many times and he lost his last 2 elections and is fixing to lose a 3rd. All Dems have to do is avoid going far left with the nominee and pick a nominee who can build the coalition to beat him in the EC. We have that candidate in Joe Biden.

Probably tweeting or pretending he’s not paying attention to any of this…which of course he is.

Let’s assume impeachment goes forward on a purely partisan basis and it passes in the house and fails in the senate. How can we be sure we will have an honest election next November?

The entire media infrastructure that supports Trump has no choice now but to put on a full court press, asserting impeachment is a good thing, maybe the best thing, that has ever happened to Trump. They’ll bang on that message ceaselessly, so much so they make it come true. “Yay for impeachment!!” will become the battle cry for the base.

On Thursday morning, Trump mockingly suggested that Greta Thunberg “go to a good old fashioned movie.”

I recommend “All The President’s Men”.

It has a happy ending.

they slid rudy into the white house before daylight.
maybe his report will be out within the hour.
the one where trump is totally exonerated and he demands by executive order that biden, obama and clinton be arrested immediately.
would not be a surprise at this point.
trump needs revenge, big revenge to sooth his inner demons. lol

My wife best friend’s husband died of despair three years ago, shortly after Trump took office. Some people handle despair differently.

Some have to read it online.

There is no way we can defeat Trump by parlor-room despair as a strategy.
