So, What if the House of Representatives Decided to Proceed with Impeachment? [View all] MineralMan Jul 2019 OP

The vastly larger danger is that PoindexterOglethorpe Jul 2019 #1

Nancy Pelosi polls Democrats in the House constantly. MineralMan Jul 2019 #4

That's naive BeyondGeography Jul 2019 #27

There is also the danger that Trumpocalypse Jul 2019 #7

trump already has been using this talking point ad nauseum. Nevermypresident Jul 2019 #37

Yes he has Trumpocalypse Jul 2019 #53

Credibility to trumpers and repubs, so what? Nevermypresident Jul 2019 #55

Yes, you no longer associate the two Trumpocalypse Jul 2019 #57

Why take the risk?! Because we have the rule of law and the Constitution behind us. Nevermypresident Jul 2019 #60

And how does a failed impeachment Trumpocalypse Jul 2019 #61

Please...that's YOUR scenerio re trump not removed. I don't agree at all. Nevermypresident Jul 2019 #62

Based on what? Trumpocalypse Jul 2019 #64

Maybe I wasn't clear. Impeachment in the House could very well help us further Nevermypresident Jul 2019 #67

Especially with swing voters? Trumpocalypse Jul 2019 #68

How many do you think read the Mueller Report versus Nevermypresident Jul 2019 #70

I don't know Trumpocalypse Jul 2019 #73

who says the Democrats are doing nothing? stillcool Jul 2019 #33

Thank you ismnotwasm Jul 2019 #47

Thank you wryter2000 Jul 2019 #52

Worry not about the age of the link. Next May, other people will still be posting this same link, egduj Jul 2019 #71

This is what I've been arguing Proud Liberal Dem Jul 2019 #50

Spot on! nt COLGATE4 Jul 2019 #58

Well stated customerserviceguy Jul 2019 #3

Then we can arrange the funeral for America and it's democracy sinkingfeeling Jul 2019 #5

Or, we can vote the bums out. That's my preference. MineralMan Jul 2019 #11

There is no guarantee whatsoever that we will be able to vote the bums out. stopbush Jul 2019 #34

At that point, they blame us Bettie Jul 2019 #40

Agreed. To rely on the 2020 election misses the OP's many salient points. Nevermypresident Jul 2019 #38

They dont have to send it to the senate . But if they do and the republican senate protects him Fullduplexxx Jul 2019 #6

Trying to impeach right now and doing nothing for the next 16 months aren't the only options StarfishSaver Jul 2019 #8

Yes, and the House is doing just that. MineralMan Jul 2019 #9

Yes. StarfishSaver Jul 2019 #12

Another ingredient... kentuck Jul 2019 #10

Yes. Failing to impeach successfully will give Trump and the Republicans MineralMan Jul 2019 #13

Failing to even try to impeach will give them the same argument. kentuck Jul 2019 #15

Not as strong as failing to impeach after trying. MineralMan Jul 2019 #16

what do you think people are saying about Dems now??? Grasswire2 Jul 2019 #19

What people? MineralMan Jul 2019 #23

I'm hearing it from the talking heads on MSNBC. stopbush Jul 2019 #35

Practically everyone in my Resist group as well as many Democrats co-workers, Nevermypresident Jul 2019 #39

I don't know about that... kentuck Jul 2019 #22

I don't believe that Nancy Pelosi is that weak a leader Tom Rinaldo Jul 2019 #36

Right. They would not take a vote unless they knew the numbers. kentuck Jul 2019 #43

So we should abandon the best method to show the mass of voters exactly what Trump has done? guillaumeb Jul 2019 #14

Hearings are already happening. MineralMan Jul 2019 #18

Investigatory hearings into possible impeachment would carry more weight. guillaumeb Jul 2019 #21

NO Grasswire2 Jul 2019 #17

We can do that without the risk of a failed impeachment process. MineralMan Jul 2019 #20

end of futile conversation. I hope you and yours do not prevail in this attitude. nt Grasswire2 Jul 2019 #31

This has been my thought all along... TreasonousBastard Jul 2019 #24

Yes. Well, I'm one of those armchair pundits, myself. MineralMan Jul 2019 #26

Well said nt Trumpocalypse Jul 2019 #29

If the Dems don't move aggressively against Trump now, there will be no 2020 election. Girard442 Jul 2019 #25

Nah. That's defeatism. MineralMan Jul 2019 #28

Defeatism? Versus some sticking their head in the sand... Nevermypresident Jul 2019 #41

So he can shoot someone on 5th Avenue and get away with it. rufus dog Jul 2019 #30

I wish you the very best of luck. Truly. MineralMan Jul 2019 #32

LOL rufus dog Jul 2019 #44

I agree with you, Rufus Mersky Jul 2019 #65

+1000 Nevermypresident Jul 2019 #42

People also declare that Nancy Pelosi is good Bettie Jul 2019 #45

+1000 Nevermypresident Jul 2019 #56

I agree with you. GuyNamedNathan Jul 2019 #48

drumpf will never be remvoed from office....... Takket Jul 2019 #49

The election is the only way to get rid of him wryter2000 Jul 2019 #51

And how do we ensure that the election Bettie Jul 2019 #63

So... wryter2000 Jul 2019 #69

Shining a light on it all Bettie Jul 2019 #82

So there's no hope wryter2000 Jul 2019 #83

I'm not seeing any Bettie Jul 2019 #84

Today, i doubt that Articles of impeachment would pass the House Gothmog Jul 2019 #54

We should expose everything in impeachment hearings and bring it to a vote. Bluepinky Jul 2019 #59

Here is how to proceed. Have the House offically open impeachment hearing. PufPuf23 Jul 2019 #66

what if we START the damned hearings and investigations ON TV? Hermit-The-Prog Jul 2019 #72

I haven't seen or read the details of "hearings and deliberations", yet. jberryhill Jul 2019 #77

Impeachment will do nothing but give trump a win. GulfCoast66 Jul 2019 #74

What if the impeachment proceedings Mr.Bill Jul 2019 #75

Bullshit proposition - "What if, after hearings and deliberations" jberryhill Jul 2019 #76

Pelosi has a rough job holding the Dems together, but hoping she does. riversedge Jul 2019 #78

She's not having a rough job, actually. MineralMan Jul 2019 #80

There is no majority as a majority haven't read the Mueller report Cetacea Jul 2019 #86

You've left the party? MineralMan Jul 2019 #87

Temporarily, in protest. I always vote straight democratic Cetacea Jul 2019 #88

it's not about doing the right thing, it's about winning an election AlexSFCA Jul 2019 #79

And doing the "right thing" is often poorly defined. MineralMan Jul 2019 #81

There's just one problem with leaving it to the 2020 election. calimary Jul 2019 #89

I assume that will be the case. What we have is just numbers. MineralMan Jul 2019 #90

Hold an Impeachment Inquiry first - it's extremely important to get out the info to general public. lark Jul 2019 #91
