The official "let's impeach Trump" thread

[Red]

It a big deal. Totally normal.

Trump wants to:

1. Know who the whistleblower is and who he complained to.
2. Execute one of the members of Congress who’s investigating him.

Totally normal. Definitely tells the rest of the nation that the president isn’t corrupt or abusing his powers. Definitely reassures the nation that he won’t use the whistleblower’s identity to cause harm to he/she.







Are we in a constitutional crisis yet? How much longer are we going to let the nation with the second most nukes in the world and the greatest military in the world be led by an authoritarian who’s daily corrupting our government?

So true

The victim complex is one of the archetypes that define his persona, and his base embraces it. I don't think he can get away with punishing anybody at this stage, even if he can still shoot somebody on 5th Avenue, but that he is the greatest victim in the history of the United States will continue to be part of his Deep State conspiracy narrative. It's all he's really got. The Democrats will need to know how to play this in ways that does not see them feed into his victimhood complex, thereby strengthening that narrative in the public's mind. As far as I'm concerned, we've got the truth on our side, but authoritarians are all about killing the truth.

60 Minutes interview with Pelosi and Schiff. Also, copy of a letter from the whistleblower's attorney to the Acting DNI, expressing fear for the whistleblower's safety, with an emphasis by the attorney on Trump's comments regarding traitors, etc.

I fully expect Trump's unhinged rants and threats against the whistleblower, and Democrats in the House to find their way into future articles of impeachment.


Whenever Democrats criticize or investigate Trump's wrongdoing we always get to hear from our friends on the right about how poorly that's sure to be received by independents. For some reason Trump's behavior rarely gets viewed through this lense. It seems to me that when the average American hears Trump lash out and muse about executing people, or labeling his political opponents as treasonous spies, this would cause them some measure of concern, no?

What do swing voters think about inciting Civil War?

Inquiring minds want to know.

I will not be surprised at all to see a handful, or more, House Republicans join Democrats in impeachment.

Their alternative is to defend the indefensible, for months. It will take its toll.

Here's an example of being unable to defend the indefensible.

How can people look at you with a straight face, and say he was trying to stop corruption in Ukraine.

Dear heavens the Trump all in supporters have lost all sense of reality.

I'm liberal but have no real loyalty to any of these political clowns. Even the ones I really like.
If they are guilty punish them all, dem or rep. If Biden did something illegal to protect his son,
investigate, and prosecute. But we all know Trump wasn't after the good of the nation. How many
other calls to other leaders is he asking to stop or help with corruption?

He needs to go, and go ASAP. The whining on twitter, and poor me is beyond pathetic. I can't wait until he is gone.
Hopefully lesson learned by everyone.
