One more thing: Lawrence O’Donnell noted last night on MSNBC that Donald Trump is now the subject of fully half of all impeachment hearings in the history of America. It’s, like, synonymous with his name now.

I can’t watch the Rethugs, bipartisan commission indeed. Now they’re interested in being bipartisan when the worse attack on democracy has just occurred from within.

Exactly, called their bluff.

Say right then and there, sure, we will agree to a bipartisan commission right after Trump is out of office.

I’ll never comprehend how his constituents can stand his manner, no matter his politics.

Yep. Glad Pete brought it up. Too bad he blew it with that ranting past his time.

Lame.

Now the fuckhead Reschethaer trying to link last week to protests last summer.

And I really wish someone on our side would someday pointedly ask who is this “Democrat” Party you speak of, we are the Democratic Party?

This is what it looks like when criminals who have been caught try to rationalize their criminal actions.

Republican talking points so far:

  1. We must unite.

  2. Both sides have been violent.

  3. President Trump committed to a peaceful transfer of power.

Yes, that’s all the craven motherfuckers got.

Watch for McConnell to reconvene the Senate before January 19th.

If he does, then he likely has the votes to convict.

If he has the votes, then I’d think he’d rather run the proceedings, to minimize damage to himself and to Senate colleagues, than to leave it to Schumer.

If he doesn’t have the votes, then he’ll just let Schumer twist in the wind, without a conviction.

And don’t get me wrong, I think the chances that McConnell is whipping up votes to convict stands at about 60% right now.

Trump didn’t just send in his thugs to attack Mitch McConnell, he took Mitch’s Senate Majority Leader role, by handing Georgia to the Dems.
