The official "let's impeach Trump" thread

I'm not opposed to any of that. I'm opposed to using US aid as a reward for digging up dirt on political opponents. Do you agree there is a difference there?

Whats wrong with getting something in return for all the free money we just give away?
 
But now you know he was serious about draining the swamp. Guess you was wrong about him after all.

I have seen nothing that indicates Trump is serious about draining the swamp. He's put industry mavens in charge of regulating the industries they came from, used his influence to get people to book his own hotels, and treated the Attorney General like his personal attorney (for a start). Trying to have his political enemies (only) investigated is deepening the swamp, not draining it.

Because it's taxpayer money, the the benefit is strictly for the sake of Trump, not the US.

But its not just for the sake of Trump. If you care about taking down crooked politicians then its for the taxpayer too. I take it as a benefit to me as well. Who are you to disagree with that?
 


I’m afraid that this is what it’s all about. Ultimately, it won’t matter how many calls were made and how many countries he blackmailed. It’s all about that 35 percent addicted to Fox News sticking it to their perceived enemies.
 
How is that damning evidence? One person tries to lead the other person. The other person is saying no you are wrong. If anything this is evidence in favor of Trump.


"No you're incorrect Trump doesn't want a quid pro quo "

Pretty hard to miss that but people do.

What do you call him firing John Bolton?

I believe he got into office and took recommendations of putting certain people in power because he really had no other choice, because he didn't know who else to choose from, and had to act quickly.

As time goes on he starts seeing who is the swamp. So he starts firing them.

Thats not a reasonable explanation for him hiring certain people? How would he even know who to put in power in the first place? He talks a big game, but obviously he had no knowledge of being a president and had to use the help of others to get started
 
I wonder why Republicans weren't allowed to ask questions? It's because the Democrats are hiding something. It's exactly why they are not voting and doing things the right way. Letting Republicans have a fair share in this just might be the end of their party. Almost 9 hours and all they have is a text that was rebutted by the next person saying "Trump wants no quid pro quo". Why'd you leave that part out of your "uh oh" tweet @The Thriller? Pretty gullible I say. This is what your media does constantly, cuts things out and purposely leaves things out to anger you.

I have the same authority to disagree that you have to agree. If it were for rooting out corrupt US politicians as a whole, Trump would not have exclusively focused on the Bidens during his phone conversation.

A conflict in philosophy, from what I can tell. As I have said before, with all his faults, Trump doesn't like getting into wars, AFAICT. Bolton is a war-monger. Firing Bolton didn't seem to have much to do with swamp-draining, but it was a move I liked.

No, he could have left the professional employees at those agencies do their jobs, or hired industry outsiders. He took recommendations from industry insiders, instead, because those were his financial supporters. I understand the reasoning, but it is not swamp-draining.

As time goes on he starts seeing who is the swamp. So he starts firing them.

Perry is still in charge of Energy. Wheeler is running the EPA. Scalia runs Labor. DeVos runs education. All of these people personally benefit from rolling back the basic protections these offices are supposed to enforce. That is swamp-filling.

He took advice from his wealthy backers, to put in people who would enrich them further at the cost of protections for poor and middle-class citizens.
 
When, and of whom? Link?
House Republicans are demanding an “equal playing field” in the Democrat-led impeachment probe against President Trump after Intelligence Committee Chairman Adam Schiff said ahead of Thursday’s scheduled testimony from former U.S. envoy for Ukraine Kurt Volker that GOP members of the Foreign Affairs Committee will not be permitted to ask questions or have equal representation during the session.

The lead Republican on the House Foreign Affairs Committee wrote Wednesday evening: “I was alarmed to learn – less than 24 hours before the first interview is scheduled to start – that it will be led by the Intelligence Committee and that questioning will be done solely by their staff.”


To be clear Fox as well as other MSM is garbage but here.
