...release all the caged toddlers along our Southern border and dive deep into those states that took the other children as foster while their parents still believed these children were off at the showers and coming back any minute now...

And you wonder why Democrat takeover after the last coupla Republican presidents had to do an apology tour to the rest of the World for sullying the shine of American.

More likely it will be like KC and the sunshine band

You people are just consumed by hate of Democrats, and you seem to be one of the worst. That's all you understand.

You are Democratic Party-haters.

The impeachment argument is overwhelmingly being made by Republicans. Democrats will only push for it if they have evidence that will win the day. People concerned about that need to remember-its not a 51% majority to impeach a president, its a 2/3 majority. So Republicans will have to sign on. So that is just so much hot air barring evidence.

The ability to pass non bipartisan laws will be gone. Something which to be honest I prefer-no matter which party. A fully Democratic house, senate, and presidency is just as bad as a fully Republican one. This is a good thing for anyone who wants whats best for the country. Legislation that we ALL want is far better then legislation a minority wants. And lets be honest, neither Republicans, nor Democrats represent a majority of the US.

Trump and his staff WILL be investigated just like Clinton, and Obamas were. Unlike them I expect a lot of issues to show up. Trumps team recommended a lot of people for partisan and corrupt reasons rather then competency. When it was all GOP ran house and senate this worked. Not so much when the other party has subpoena power. This will cause a lot more corruption to appear. So expect the Democrats to use this as a election slogan in 2020.



I agree with this and especially the blue and especially so the underlined. I never like it in particular when one party has too much influence (executive and legislative being the same party). Our government should be a balance of thoughts/ideas and I actually do welcome the investigations.



I also don't think that the impeachment thing will be imminent (unless some of these new uber libs start fussing and demanding things similar to the Tea Party did in 2010 - hopefully the Dems aren't as dumb as the GOP was back then and letting those TPers have too much influence on their party). However, if Trump does something to try to stop a Dem majority in Congress from exerting their power, then all bets are off the table.

Again with that myth? "Tax cuts for the wealthy?" It is tax cuts for over 80% of tax payers, not just for "the wealthy."

If they have a majority in the house, all they can do is basically not allow any new laws to be made. They won't be able to push anything past Trump, and the likely still Republican Senate. And if Ginsburg croaks while Trump is still president, they won't even be able to block him from putting another conservative on the court. They might impeach him, but the Senate wouldn't convict, so they'd lose that fight.

Hopefully get spending under control. The deficits are twice as big as few years ago, and getting bigger. Improvements to healthcare would also be welcome, but they would be shot down in Senate of veto.

This clear double standard in our justice system based on the political party of who is being investigated is corrupt in the extreme.

Of course it will come as no surprise to see partisan supporters of the Democrat left denying this corruption, obviously because they are the beneficiaries of it.
Who s that?
Which "democrats" and indicted for "what"? Poised indicates they were being investigated??

you have two things backwards, the democrats will try to raise taxes, remember the senate needs to approve effort as well.


but they CAN impeach trump without the senate.
