Congress, regardless of party, are you so wrapped up in your petty political maneuvering as to be blind to the ongoing destruction of our democratic republic?
Do you care nothing for your children and grandchildren, let alone how history will judge you?
Impeach the malignant narcissist NOW, I implore you.
Do not wait one more hour!

(28,270 posts)Of course everyone here agrees with you.
Go post this on freekrepublic or call in to Limpballs or Handjob and see what they say.
I believe you will be disappointed.

(5,810 posts)we will get no help from the GOP members of the House and Senate. They have too much left on their agenda to accomplish. If they attempt impeachment at this point (the most logical time), all other things will stop. And they can't have that. If they delay too much longer the damage to our relations with allies and antagonists around the world will deteriorate. I was certain these latest blunders by tRump would make them do something to save us. Now I am not so sure after hearing Corker and others making excuses for tRump. I am afraid we are doomed by this maniac.

(1,433 posts)the GOP will implement Article 4 of the 25th Amendment. No impeachment. And it will be when they have accomplished the destruction of the American worker and middle class. RESIST!

(15 posts)...on what grounds? Being an asshole isn't an impeachable offense
"The president, vice-president, and all civil officers of the United States, shall be removed from office on impeachment for, and conviction of treason, bribery, or other high crimes and misdemeanors."
I'm all for impeachment, but in order to get some credibility and momentum in a real impeachment effort, you need some sort of basis for it other than "he's a narcissistic orange asshole." I keep hearing about all the "evidence" some people claim to have regarding Russia, the election and other things. NOW IS THE TIME TO RELEASE IT!!!

(18,640 posts)I know people say he'd be worse, and it's true he'd carry out a strict Republican agenda, but at least the world will still be here for my great grandchildren.
I'm confident that when Democrats finally introduce articles of impeachment the GOP will pile on. The list of Republican lawmakers who despise this man grows by the week.

(6,660 posts)The Donald will go too far at some point, & he'll either resign or be impeached. More likely the former--his colossal ego won't allow him to be removed from office.

(9,865 posts)I think there is a profound hundred year old rift in this country. Something is really wrong and Trump, while making it worse and institutionalizing it, is just the symptom.
