GOP Rep. Amash becomes first Republican to call for Trump's impeachment

Actually that's one House Rep. She already has the House.
I'm not walking back any points. It proves the core one.
Trump, despite what you want, won't be impeached and removed from office before the 2020 election.
You can discuss the minutae all you want, the reality is his removal will be a political decision. Made by the GOP members of the Senate.
So whatever you think is evidence doesn't matter, whatever you think will turn the tide won't.
Trump's removal from office will come solely because the Dems choose the right candidate to inspire that part of his base to believe they are a better choice.
That person to win is Senator Bernie Sanders.
I think that with the ongoing investigations there will come a time when even the republicans won't be able to support him.
He is so corrupt, stupid, racist and dishonest that he'll alienate everyone soon enough.
This isn't the time of Nixon. They had Clinton dead to Rights on Perjury. And he was left in Office.
I'm doubtful they will impeach based on things prior to his taking office. Just because it sets a precedent they don't want.
True, Trump is less popular than Nixon and so much more corrupt as well.
Not to mention conspiring with Russia is so much worse than Nixon's crimes.
Clinton, Clinton, Clinton..... Well you love dragging the Clintons into a thread that has nothing to do with them. But you are critical of me, when I mention Trump in a thread that is relevant to the discussion!!
Anyway, do you for once fully agree with the person that you endorse for President in 2020??
Come on and agree with Sanders for once, okay??
As we are discussing impeachment I'd say comparing the circumstances is indeed relevant. The press sure does it.
Lol. Such binary thinking. Bernie in this case can say what he likes because in the end it doesn't hurt him.
Any fallout from proceeding and failing is all on Pelosi and Schumer.
You do realize Trump wants this right? It's a great thing for him to campaign on. So really anyone who supports impeachment is in a backhanded way supporting Trump.
Because it will fail.
So you support Trump, not Bernie.
Just checking in case it had finally changed, but nope, you're still just a Trumptard talking out the side of your mouth.
I support due process. In other words if enough real evidence of wrong doing comes to light of bad acts committed by Trump to get the required votes in the Senate after a fair trial there then I'm good with it.
Because then fair process was applied.
What we are discussing is the chance of success under the present conditions and quite frankly on the prospects of future success and failure due to the politics of the Senate.
Slim to none.
So really your little cheap theatrics mean nothing. Really for you it appears once again to be even less about Trump and more about some personal and imaginary points system where you think you are "winning".
I continue to stand by my statement that the only and best way to to remove Trump is vote him out and to use this rare opportunity to elect a real Progressive candidate in his place. One to push for Medicare for all, a lowered military budget, and who isn't beholden to special interests and money.
And the best person on all counts imo is Senator Bernie Sanders.
Then read the fucking report.

There is enough evidence there to impeach based on obstruction alone, according over 800 federal prosecutors.
Then why don't the Dems do it?
Answer. Because perhaps there isn't enough to garner 67 votes in the Senate. And that's all that counts.
Okay, so when we talk about corruption, obstruction of justice etc. and the thread is relevant to Trump, why on earth does it ruffle your feathers??
In other words a coverup of your idol Trump to you in fine. Should Justice not be served?
To me once the House of Representatives gets to the bottom of all the crimes related to this President and it is fully revealed to the Americans, then it will be the right time to impeach him. The Senate Republicans will be on the hook for a full coverup if they do not side with the Impeachment. We all know and you do as well, that Trump will do his very best not to release any of his tax returns, Deutsche Bank records, and other documents relating to his criminal activities. Why are the various individuals from the AG to trump's staff not showing up and ignoring the subpoenas when by law they should do so??
Ruffle my feathers? Um no. I look at at all the circumstances and give an opinion on the likely outcome.
In this case the likely outcome is Pelosi won't go for impeachment.
You have to take in to account the fact the Dem leadership doesn't want to set precedent for the GOP. Everytime they do things like this the GOP adopt it and do it more effectively.
So this really isn't in their best Interest.
You don't actually think anyone the Dem leadership wants isn't corrupt as well do you?
No what I'm saying is I don't believe their is enough evidence to Warrent impeachment. And GOP as well have to pay attention to their voters just as the Dems calling for it are doing so because their base is screaming for it.
This is purely about politics.
Yep. And what does it say about the state of the party when the rest of the senior members back this and her?
Which has Been my point all along. Them and the GOP leadership are solely in it now for personal power and enrichment. None of them are serving the voters anymore. And the fringes of both parties are too weak to take control.
Why the hell do you think I trash them and support Sanders?
