lol.........he's no SAINT.........FAR from it. And he's certainly not going to "rise" once they get him out of there. Your post is the exact opposite of what I've been saying. YOU are the one who is deranged, it seems.
In fact, this whole episode has very little to do with Trump himself. It's just regular politics. Except nowadays, politics is on steroids.....24/7. A blood sport for the left, deep state and media.

Be careful what you wish for, we may have to force in Ted Nugent.....


I'm just a realist. I'm actually kind of surprised that it's taken THIS long for the left and Deep State to destroy his presidency..........I figured it would take two months tops (or that he would be assassinated pre-inauguration or shortly afterwards).
Asking Dems to 'stop the hate of Trump and accept they lost" is like me expecting to walk outside right now and find a million dollars in the parking lot. Are you being serious??? Ain't gonna happen.

That said, he's toast. And the funny thing is, I think I always knew it would happen just like this. And it is something that NEEDS to happen, so I don't feel bad at all. Just as we needed him to win the nomination (bringing some light on the cockroaches in the process), so this process of impeachment and removal needs to happen. We need a "cleansing" of the GOP and our system in general, and the destruction of the Trump administration is certainly going to accomplish that in the long run. (But not in the way the leftists think........lol).
Goodbye, Good Old Boys and Girls Club of the Establishment Elite. Goodbye, lamestream media. Goodbye, Republican flunkies. You are going to regret this, but you're too dumb to see that now......lol

Bring it on....the faster the better (I hope he's out by June).
If he's out, I think it will be proof to the country to never elect an "outsider" again.

Honestly, if he'd get off Twitter and hadn't fired Comey, I wouldn't find much fault in him either. He doesn't know about government though. Politics is always in government and dirty dealing and you have to watch your back. I don't think he understood what he was getting into and neither did you all who supported him.

As someone whose worked with a lot of politicians/public servants, I can assure you it is a very hard job and it is hard primarily because there are a lot of regulations you have to be aware of and it is more about personality and getting along with others - a social job - versus what you all seem to have realized. Trump never had the temperament for office. I also though he would be gone, but not until 2020. I thought he'd get smart and surround himself with a good team to steer him through government. But now I see he's not that bright. If he weren't born into money, I doubt he'd have done anything with his life lol.

If you love Trump, why do you want him impeached next month? Impeachment only gets rid of the President not the Republican party so don't expect some great upheaval in government.

What I have a hard time understanding is;

Why did rural America vote in an establishment billionaire, a culture in American society they dislike?

I think he was looked at by some as the lesser of two evils, if it was solely based on his BS rallies then it is a sign of the need to improve our education system.

I didn't vote for either of them so I had nothing to do with this.

In fact, it is the exact opposite: it's acceptance of his destruction and seeing the copious good in it---in fact, its NECESSITY.
I know that DJT doesn't like what's happening---can't say I blame him. But far bigger forces and issues than just him are at play.
I mean this for more than just the Trump impeachment issue of the day: life has truly become blood sport for the left, the lamestream media, and the Deep State. They play to win---no holds barred. More than being whiny about that, I am jealous of it. Our side just isn't even serious at all. So---let it all burn down; lets see about a Phoenix thing. You never know.
I was commenting on Trump's whining--and Trump most definitely whines. Why would you take that personally? I did not accuse you of whining.

As far as the Deep State, yadayada, I don't believe there is one. Trump has brought everything on himself. Remember when he read a speech to congress and everyone congratulated him for saying something normal?

How low is the bar when you are praised for simply not acting like an insane child? Lol. His polls even went up. Yay--Trump can read just like a grown-up.

Deep State, black helicopters, NWO, Operation Jade Helm? Sorry--it is all entertainment to me. I wish we had a 'Deep State' that could dump Trump. Unfortunately not.

By the end of next week, it will be a tidal wave).

They got Nixon........he left an opening, too. Maybe an even bigger one than the one that Trump has left. The most important point, though, is how much better they are at playing this game and getting Republicans than they were even 40-45 years ago. They are far, far better at it: their speed and efficiency has improved tenfold. What took a year or two to do with Nixon can now be done in a few months. They have really refined their "art". (A dark art, to be sure....but it is what it is).
They "got" Nixon? Nixon was, by far and with no close second, the most corrupt president in modern history. He committed crimes and deserved worse than he ultimately received. He was condemned by both parties, and rightfully so. You don't think Nixon deserved impeachment? ugh

You "don't believe there is a Deep State" at all.......I laughed when I read that. Because on what planet would a Deep State NOT develop and exist?? I mean, come on. I'm sure you know about human nature and the ways of the world. Of COURSE there is a DEEP STATE (this is an old, old story; we have known and talked about it for a long time, it's just that this year we learned just how "far along" they are.)
So, I mean, I don't even know what to say: if somebody is just going to deny the very existence of an entrenched, powerful, bureaucracy which outlives specific administrations and has its own agenda/dynamics/motives...........that's kind of a conversation-killer right there.

I said in my post that he left a big opening. What do you THINK that means??


And yes: they WANTED him and they GOT him. What is so hard to understand about that??

(For the record, I loathe the man more than you can understand).

I don't want him impeached, emotionally that. But deep down, I know it must happen if things are ever going to get any better. This has to reach an end game.
The GOP will be wiped out when Trump gets knocked out. It will discredit the whole party.

Two more terms really? This corrupt clown will be lucky to stay out of jail. I'm just going to enjoy watching Comey and Mueller back up the truck and keep running over this piece of trash.
