From flushing toilets 10/15 times to ...the dishwashers that go "boom" !!

Trump was impeached. But dishwashers that go ‘boom’ are on his mind.

As a divided House voted to impeach him Wednesday night, President Trump spent part of a lengthy campaign rally bemoaning plumbing problems, saying “women tell me” they have to run their dishwashers multiple times.

"Remember the dishwasher? You’d press it, boom! There’d be like an explosion. Five minutes later you open it up, the steam pours out, the dishes — ” he said, drawing laughs. “Now you press it 12 times.”

The president’s comments were made during a freewheeling speech in Battle Creek, Mich., in which he addressed such topics as Hillary Clinton, MS-13, the “filth” in San Francisco, F-35 pilots more handsome than Tom Cruise, the “stupid Washington Post, their Pinocchio” and the “lawless partisan impeachment.” He also went after the late Michigan congressman John Dingell, drawing condemnation for suggesting he might be “looking up” from hell.

The dishwasher remarks came as Trump touted efforts to fight water regulations he claimed have resulted in showers, toilets and sinks that no longer work as well as they once did. He raised the same issue earlier this month, getting the late-night treatment after declaring that "people are flushing toilets 10 times, 15 times as opposed to once.”

Putin: Trump impeachment ‘far-fetched,’ Senate will acquit

MOSCOW (AP) — Russian President Vladimir Putin called the U.S. impeachment process “far-fetched” Thursday, making a seemingly obvious prediction that Donald Trump will be acquitted in the Senate.

Putin said Thursday at his annual news conference in Moscow that the move is a continuation of the Democrats’ fight against Trump.

“The party that lost the (2016) election, the Democratic Party, is trying to achieve results by other means,” Putin said.

He likened Trump’s impeachment to the earlier U.S. probe into collusion with Russia, which Putin downplayed as being groundless.

Putin noted that the impeachment motion “is yet to pass the Senate where the Republicans have a majority.” He added that “they will be unlikely to remove a representative of their own party from office on what seems to me an absolutely far-fetched reason.”

Trump was impeached by the U.S. House of Representatives, becoming only the third American chief executive to be formally charged under the Constitution’s ultimate remedy for high crimes and misdemeanors.

Laurence Tribe : the Senate can't require the House, to "immediately" whatever is

https://twitter.com/tribelaw/status/1207339806344302593

Senate rules requiring the House to “immediately” present its articles of impeachment to the Senate clearly violate the constitutional clause in Article I giving each house the sole power to make its own rules. It’s up to the House when and how to prosecute its case in the Senate

Trump, says Republicans, is Jesus, or as good as

Since Republicans are blind and can't see the evidence, perhaps the "chosen one" can help?
Wasn't that one of Jesus' miracles?

Jesus clothed the naked
Trump grabs em by pussy

Jesus embraced foreigners
Trump puts them in cages

Jesus cared for the sick

Jesus died for your sins
Trump embodies all 7 deadly sins

Rep. Barry Loudermilk (R-GA): "Pontius Pilate afforded more rights to Jesus than Democrats afforded this president."

Jesus: "Until Donald Trump is stripped naked and nailed to a cross, shut the fuck up."
