Rep. Joe Kennedy III Calls For Trump Impeachment


Rep. Joe Kennedy III (D-MA) is roughly the 80th House Democrat to call for impeachment proceedings against Donald Trump.

Kennedy’s statement:

Joe Kennedy is regarded as a rising star in the Democratic Party. Rep. Kennedy gave a memorable State Of The Union response to Trump in 2018 where he said, “Bullies may land a punch. They might leave a mark. But they have never, not once, in the history of our United States, managed to match the strength and spirit of a people united in defense of their future.”

Rep. Kennedy is taking on the bully, and making the argument that Trump must be held accountable to preserve democracy. According to Kennedy, not impeaching Trump would be letting down democracy and the American people.

The rule of law argument is not the strongest one that Democrats could offer for impeaching Trump. Kennedy’s argument is more about right and wrong, morality, and the oath that he took to uphold the Constitution. Impeachment momentum has not gone away, and with each Trump stomp on our system of government, momentum grows for impeachment.

7. Here's a guarantee for you.

Mueller will testify on July 17 before the House Judiciary and Intelligence Committees.

If there isn't a decision to begin an impeachment inquiry at the close of those sessions, it ain't gonna happen, ever.

Trump will continue to attempt to run out the clock. He'll stonewall everyone the committees want to interview, and even if they show up, after the Hope Hicks fiasco, exactly what do we hope to uncover?

So that's my prediction, and if I'm wrong, I'll be the first one to admit it, right here.

July 18...or close to it...or not at all.
