The guy is a idiot, Pence/Ryan are actually competent! And I don't mean in a good way!

5. I hope the Republican party is thoroughly destroyed and can never recover from this.

The only thing you can count on from states like WV, KY is their reliable support for the Pukes! Their disdain for race means they vote against their economic interest!

12. No frickin' way. Traitor Trump is going to sink this country and destroy our government

And if Traitor Trump is impeached it's going to be a lot harder for Pence and Ryan to get things done.


Get Traitor Trump out first and then worry about Pence and Ryan IF they happen to turn out to be clean.

11. Remember Pence can be impeached also and any other "civil officer".

Trump is just the tip of the iceberg. Every action he take, every tweet that he makes is guided by his enablers, such as Pence, Bannion, Reibus, Sessions et al.

We need to impeach both Pence and Trump and any one else who as a "civil officer" has knowledge of the Russian connection.

His foreign policy is run by Putin: lift sanctions, destroy NATO and give Russia a free hand in Eastern Europe. Again, his family and cohorts do not see anything wrong in this.

15. Ignoring the fact that Republicans aren't going to support that at this point

Be explicit about exactly what high crimes or misdemeanors Trump has committed that you can prove with actual evidence. Not I know he's guilty, not he's dangerous, not somebody around him is guilty.

You can't really make that argument at this point. Lots of Republicans were sure Obama was going to end the country too.

17. Then they are accomplices to treason.

They are as guilty as he is if they do not get rid of him. They know he is selling out this country to the Russians and they are doing nothing to stop it.

The comparison to Obama is ridiculous. Obama never caused a fraction of the harm that this orange bimbo has. Not even close.

19. Yes. Incontrovertible evidence

As much of a farce as the impeachment of Clinton was, they did have DNA evidence. There was no debate about whether he lied. It came down to a question of whether the crime was serious enough to be considered a high crime or misdemeanor.
The evidence needs to be solid, and if the impeachment process is to have any integrity or credibility, there should be no question of the seriousness of the crime.

Searching for confirmation of a belief that Bill Clinton was corrupt, that Obama would destroy the country, etc. etc. turned the pursiut of impeachment into a partisan sport. In 1998, republicans discovered that it is a failed strategy to not take it seriously.
