    You've got a guy who:
    - avoided the draft with bone spurs
    - claims to have been first in his class, but sued the school to prevent release his records
    - started with a gift of millions from his dad, who apparently scammed the money through a variety of means in the apartment business
    - bankrupted two casinos (who bankrupts casinos?)
    - ran a scam University and had to pay back millions to people he scammed
    - ran a scam charity and had to pay millions back when it was uncovered
    - has no governmental experience
    - ran a successful reality TV show of firing people, but won't fire anyone in real life himself

    You elect this guy as president of our country...and you wonder why all this is going on? Really?
    ...he went up late, and I was already up there.

    what does any of that have to do with the democrats choosing to pursue impeachment on these grounds?

    I wasn't addressing impeachment.
    ...he went up late, and I was already up there.

    What is going on? Everything, that's EVERYTHING being better than it was for the previous 8 years before January 2017.

    Care to check the record...other than the Left's and media slanders? Oh, and a fully partisan impeachment that our Founding Fathers warned against, and tried to put safeguards in so it wouldn't happen?

    Paul, I have to assume that you certainly didn't vote for Hillary the last time around, nor Obama in the prior two elections, nor Clinton when he won, based on your concerns about ethical and moral behavior.

    And, based on that, you shouldn't be voting for any of the Democratic frontrunners this time around, as they are all corrupt:

    1. Biden - no explanation required.
    2. Bernie - a socialist millionaire. Utter bullshit.
    3. Pocahontas - can't seem to tell the truth about anything and is a truly weak individual.


    BTW, the fact that Trump has no government experience is a strength. Couple that with the fact that he is wealthy and you have a guy who can't be bought (e.g. Biden, Obama, Clinton's, et al).

    Bums me out when posters I respect post on politics. Kind of wish this would be a politics free forum. Nobody is changing anyone else’s mind. I’m sure this is probably one of the most civil political forums anywhere. But there is still a lot of name calling and petulant behavior from respected posters. Mirrors our current President. I fucking hate politics.

    I'd rather this be a football free forum since it is such an overrated trash sport at all levels.

    Agree. But we call it soccer in this country.
