Politics Thread

Just give an example, please. That will help me understand why lying, obstruction, misusing public funds for personal political gain, and co-opting Department Secretaries (that means you Barr, Pompeio, and Perry) into conducting purely partisan activity at the expense of policy and departmental integrity.

We would have to remove every single person from political office.

[X-man]

I just did.

How? Saying it's like the definition of porn is NOT an answer. If you are going that route, then you need to provide an example of your "definition of porn" to answer my question.

Hardly. Although my 10 years of living in DC makes me sympathetic to what you are saying, what Trump is doing is decidedly NOT the norm. Remember Clinton was impeached for consensual sex with an intern, and then lying about it. That is just the STARTING point for Trump.

I'll know it when I see it. That's the definition of porn. And the answer to your question.

Which was stupid. And he was never in danger of being removed.

We're done here. You refuse to answer and so by implication, suggest that there is nothing that Trump could do that would warrant impeachment and removal. This, no doubt, is the position of most Senate Republicans as well.....very sad.

So of lying, extorting, misuse of tax dollars, and covering up are not things people care about, please give an example of what Trump would have to do for you to care.

Definitely think this isn’t right, however both Republicans and Democrats have been doing the same (some worse) for years. To bad we’ll probably never clean out the cesspool in Washington in my lifetime. Like GO said, so many Democrats and never Trumpers have Trump derangement syndrome just like the GOP and tea party had for Obama.

It was enough for Congressional Republicans, and Republicans in the Senate.

I'm not surprised you feel that way.

Have we covered how that was stupid? Shockingly, impeachment and removal is mostly a partisan affair.
