Is Donald Trump going to "self-impeach"?

Just a couple of months ago, Nancy Pelosi suggested that he was going to impeach himself.

Since that time, he has confessed to a very incriminating phone call with the president of Ukraine, although he has not yet confessed to a quid pro quo, his Chief of Staff has said that it happened.

Then he was rolled in a phone call with the president of Turkey. He would withdraw all US troops from the Kurd regions and Turkey could take over part of Syria as their own. Just as Russia and Syria were marching from the south. Even 129 Republicans in the House voted against that decision. (There is no reason to believe they voted against Trump, but only his "decision)

Then, and then...

He rolled out Mulvaney to inform the people that he was going to have the G-7 at his Golf Resort, the Doral in Miami. It said so much about him. The criticism was almost universal. But, Mulvaney agreed to take other questions about other issues, and in the process, confessed to a quid pro quo with the Ukrainians. They had to agree to investigate the 2016 DNC server. Way back then...in 2016.

And this has all happened in just the last few weeks. Imagine what might come out in the next three to four weeks? It's a scary proposition for us all. But, especially for the moderates in the Republican Party.

Nancy Pelosi has been very patient. She has played her cards real close to her vest. Nevertheless, the impeachment train is coming round the bend. Hopefully, the people will begin to see and hear.

Come on, kentuck! You're obviously up on the latest current events. Trump and his associates have publicly admitted their crimes. What more evidence do we need?

Trump is going to be impeached by the House. It's just a matter of time

you know, from A Few Good Men where Jack Nicholson loses it and admits he ordered the Code Red.

But, I've been waiting for that for over 2 years

All the competent people have been driven out because of Trump’s personality. He’s done this to himself in more ways than one.
