Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By DDalton: I've decided I'm voting against every incumbent on my ballot until 2030. It's the only way to flush them out. Who's with me? That's pretty dumb, to be honest. A good voter judges everything on its merits in accordance with sound principles and cognizant of the various interests involved, inclusive of his own. A bad voter does shit like this, among other things. Better for bad voters to stay at home. If they all did that this country would be a better place. Some incumbents are good, some are bad, some may not be good but the only viable alternative is worse. Each incumbent needs to be judged according to his merits, or lack thereof. Power, no matter how diffuse it may be in this case, is inherent in the privilege of suffrage. It is imperative to exercise power responsibly and wisely. I would implore you to vote responsibly and not irresponsibly, as you propose. As for the impeachment, I didn't think they'd kill it quite this quickly, but he was never going to be convicted by the Senate as currently composed. Republicans do not have the political capital to succeed. He was, however, rightfully impeached and very much deserved it. |

The democrats really hate America and despise the people.
Their anti-American destruction agenda is moving forward at full speed. |

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By Libertas: Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer said the House Republicans' case failed to meet "the high standard of high crimes and misdemeanors" and could set a dangerous precedent. Oh, that's fucking rich.  No shit. He just got done with an impeachment on known false charges. Are you fucking kidding me? |

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By lukelog925: Uniparty going to uniparty. While almost all of them are corrupt as I recall from earlier today the vote was strictly down party lines. So when every dem votes to kill the two articles did you think a single dem was going to vote to convict after a trial? Remember you need 2/3rds to convict. |

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By BillyDBerger: Originally Posted By R2point0: Did anyone here honestly expect anything different? Nope.

Unless you genuinely think their own party is going to support impeachment, initiating it is no more than virtue signalling at the highest level. |

Congress is being paid to keep the border open. The border is not going to be secured until it becomes a problem to the people who can do something about it. Period. Every illegal that crosses should be bussed to DC and given meals, tents and money to camp out around all the government buildings in the city. US Chamber of Commerce building also needs to be surrounded by them. Enjoy that finger that Schumer and McConnell just gave you. Yes, McConnell didn’t support impeachment either.

Trump got impeached because he wasn't in the club. If he somehow manages to get back to the White House it will happen again.

they are true believers that only global govt can save the planet and the elite the worthy ones to survive,thrive,and lead.
everybody else is in the way and destroying the planet...simply not enough resources to sustain the middle class and themselves. the truth is their god Lucifer/Satan hates the human race because we were created in God's image..he hates God the Father God the Son God the Holy Spirit and every living thing God has created...he also knows his time is short...and his goal of attrition taking as many human souls to hell with him as he can...he has fooled his followers into doing his will for the good of mankind...they are true believers. |

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By 1Andy2: Impeachment trials almost always go by party lines. What a shock Yeah, but the Democrats are going full tribal. They are not even allowing hearings and votes now on important constitutional issues like impeachment. You know they will do the exact same thing with Biden's impeachment if it happens. If the Republicans don't wake up and start doing the same, they might as well just resign themselves to this kind of thing. |

Democrats vote to table the impeachment on Mayorkas like it never happened. |

Harry Reid got rid of the fillabuster rule then the Dems bitched and moaned when the turtle used it to get judges appointed by Trump. Dems will not always be in control of the senate. This is likely to bite them in the future.
