Trump acquitted again

That doesn’t mean we have to listen or amplify it.

Impeachment was always going to be a sideshow. I’m still eagerly awaiting criminal charges in multiple jurisdictions.

im not sure why witnesses mattered. the case was well made by the managers. if what they presented wasn’t going to convince anybody, nothing would have.

it’s not like there wasn’t enough evidence or that the republicans voted to acquit based on the evidence.

any house, senate, or criminal investigations can still proceed. to me at least it seems the dems did fine

While the Dems have the senate majority, now is the time to bring statehood to DC, Puerto Rico, Guam, US Virgin Islands, American Samoa for an additional 10 Democratic Senators.

Edit, Fix spelling for American Somalia Samoa.

Why? And if not, how can it be finagled to make it so?

40% of Republican voters believe violence is the answer to political problems.

86% of Republican Senators just pandered to them.

Impeachment is just Trump getting thrown out of the political club.

I can be fine with moving on and getting to the step of a competent AG in office that can run investigations for corruption against Trump, Kutchner, Ivanka, and Miller.

Throw Cruz, Hawley, Emty Greene, Bobek, etc. in with him.

because the reconciliation exception is only for bills that deal with budgets and taxes, not for anything else. and there is no way of finagling it to do so because the john lewis voting rights act is a matter of rights and moral reasoning which has nothing to do with the tax code.

Yeah, I’m angry too, seeing the villain walk away from the burning building yet again, with children screaming inside. What a fucking country.

Everybody Knows seems to cover things accurately as well.

And roast marsh mellows over the flames.

That is EXACTLY what Hoover did.

While impeachment was a nice “feel good” exercise… Without hard evidence (ala the Nixon tapes) it was doomed to fail.

It MAY have served to tar a few senators, probably not. The American electorate has a VERY short memory.

Jesus H Christ, what more “hard evidence” was needed here?

Ya, I agree, but unless they had blood dripping from his own hands, it wasn’t gonna happen.
