Pence should invoke the 25th, and probably would just to save his own skin. His problem is that Il Douche has packed the cabinet with too many toadies and sycophants to make that go through. So it’s time for another impeachment.
The United States will have a long, hard road living down the shame of having elected this abhorrent being to the office of President.
Trump, you lost, go the fuck away.
Impeachment is not enough, he should be banished from the country. Although, that does raise the question, what nation would take him?
Russia. For services rendered.
Him and Putin, hand in hand, skipping together though the daisies, and over the skulls of the oppressed.
It would be obscene if he weren’t removed, but I honestly don’t know whether it would be a good thing to impeach him if it meant Republican senators acquitting him, again, even after this. That’d mean certifying the US as a failed state just days before a new government offers some hope of turning a corner.
If hope were relevant to situations involving Turmp, I’d hope for McConnell to agree to it and get enough senators on side before anything was announced.
It would be very nice to have them on record for the sake of shoving it into Biden’s stupid gullible face every time he goes off on one of his conciliatory bipartisan trips.
At the moment I don’t think he’d be acquitted. He may well be doooooooomed,
Woohoo!
Iran is trying to extradite him through Interpol. This problem could literally solve itself!
I just have to say, “Please Santa? I’ve been SUCH a good girl this year!”
There’s a supermax in Colorado where other lesser traitors, such as Harold Nicholson and Robert Hanssen, are quietly spending their next fifteen lives. They’d probably fit him in.
Well, late Christmas presents are a big thing this year…
Is Elba still available? He should be exiled there to play golf on a specially built Presidential course until he expires - and if asked nicely Mexico would probably be willing to foot the bill for its construction.
I have emailed my congress persons, with the subject that Trump must be impeached for his coup attempt.
There are fresh bullet holes in the capitol building. This should be the quickest impeachment ever.
St. Helena. Elba doesn’t have a good track record when it comes to this sort of thing. Also, it is full of tourists.
Can we pick the wallpaper?
He shouldn’t be banished. He should be tried for his crimes and punished appropriately.
Just like Saddam Hussein.
Yes much better. I thought it was Elba that Napoleon had carked it on?
Yes, St Helena by all means - or possibly Pitcairn.
