Impeachment is NOT about reversing an election.

[milestogo]

It is about confronting a president whose behavior makes him unfit for the office.

I am sick to death of this oft-repeated right wing talking point.

1. They know that, but it riles up the base....all lies, all the time.

2. Ironically, the ones who shout it loudest know best that it's a lie

It is strictly for the consumption of Republican voters who are ignorant enough to believe it, and they are one hell of a big voting bloc. Trump as a victim is such an unlikely scenario that it has to be drummed into them constantly for them to believe it.

3. Honor the 2018 election

The 2018 election took the House for a reason. The system of checks and balances is the reason. The 2018 election was recognition that he was worse than most ppl hoped for. He never pivoted to presidential and pursued criminal, unethical, immoral, unamerican policy and practice.
Impeachment isn't reversing the 2016 election.
Impeachment is an appropriate check and balance brought to us by the will of 2018 voters.

4. I forget who said it, not nullifying election, PENCE will be there and worse

P worse just maybe more polite but same policies but more effectively promulgated

5. Pence is bad, but he's bad like GWB was bad.

The country would survive him.

The country won't survive much more of Trump.

6. Yip, awful that SHITLER is so bad he makes the Shrubs look better!1

7. My standard response is that Clinton was voted in too.

Just remind them, they felt Clinton betrayed his oath of office and flaunted the law after being duly elected. If the meme "he was elected so whatever he does is OK" then there would be no provision in the US Constitution for removal between elections.
