Trump admits Democrats could easily impeach him: 'Unfortunately they have the votes'

[kpete]

Donald Trump has for the time admitted that Democrats in the House of Representatives have enough votes to "easily" impeach him.

Speaking to reporters outside the White House in an interaction for which it appeared the president had prepared several crucial talking points in advance, he admitted Democrats had enough votes to push ahead and vote to impeach him.

Yet he said he believed he would be protected by Republicans in the Senate, which would have to vote with a two-thirds if the president were to be removed from office.

“So the Democrats. Unfortunately they have the votes,“ Mr Trump said, referring to the House, which only requires to a simple majority to vote to impeach the president.

1. "Three times he asked at one point if we had them why can't we use them."

Damned good question.

Oh, wait ... he was talking about nuclear weapons.

2. He's already started the new talking points

to eventually declare "complete exoneration" when the Senate fails to convict.

3. not just the votes, you witless simp

they also have the PROOF !

and once again, as has been stated " It's not important how many republicans are for it at the start of impeachment, what's important are how many Americans are for it at the end of the impeachment"

and that will be the Damoclean sword
dangling over every repug senator...
