But there will be nothing to stop House Democrats from launching some much needed investigations into this very corrupt administration. It would be two long years of bad news for Trump and his cronies. After NINE Benghazi investigations launched for the sole purpose of taking down Clinton, this will be fun.
What isn't already being investigated? Dems aren't even in control and there are already more fruitless investigations going on than anyone can count.

If a "blue wave" succeeds in giving the Democrats control at least of the House of Representatives in the midterm elections in November, Democrats will have the power to subpoena documents and force administration officials to testify about a slew of scandals, including aides using private email for government business, agencies spending taxpayer money at Trump resorts and sexual assault allegations involving his recent Supreme Court appointment, Brett Kavanaugh.
Republicans worry that Trump and his aides have no idea the hell that may await


LOL, what do they expect from a NO-IQ-IMBECILE-NUT-JOB, who lives in LA-LA-LAND???????

Wow. The derangement is unreal... you must be a hoot at parties...or even in your day to day life. I can see someone tell you to "have a nice day" and your retort would be "HOW CAN I HAVE A NICE DAY WHEN WE HAVE A NO-IQ-IMBECILE-NUT-JOB in the White house...AHHHHHH...."

If there is a blue wave, life will go on, is it what I want to see happen ? Not at all but, like everything in life,though, it doesn't always go our way. Many of us will handle it like adults and continue on with our lives.

As an independent, here are the two (big) problems I see with democrats... vengeance and entitlement. Your own post highlights exactly what is wrong with the party today... so much bitterness and contempt for Trump that you are willing to do literally whatever to get rid of him.

The democratic strategy is 100% backwards, IMO. Rather than constantly spew hate and propaganda, they need to embrace respect, even if they believe the same respect is not being given to them. Be nice, wait your turn, formulate a genuinely compelling campaign to run on that will attract more voters.

That's the way you win. Think about it this way... would you rather hang out with the group of people who are constantly complaining and angry, or the group of people who seem cool, respectful, and nice?

The OP is a paid troll. I'm hoping you were not actually expecting an articulate reply. You'll be waiting a while. She begins obnoxious and childish threads and then bolts. Sometimes she pops back in to toss a few more low brow insults, but contributes nothing of value to a discussion. Really, she just provides entertainment value and a sharp confirmation of how unhinged some leftists have actually become. But you know this PMF, you've been here a while.

I don't get it. How is that an "onslaught"? Congress hasn't done jack the last two years. A Democratic House won't change anything.

Yup... just like the 2016 election, you folks are making your predictions. How’d that work out for you? Of course this time is different. 😂
You guys must really be worried.

Here's my prediction: Dems take the house, but Pubs keep the senate.

Now it's your turn.

He divested himself to prevent bankruptcy from the debacle that was opening up Trump Taj Mahal in 1989. He leveled Atlantic City time and time again. Not that what he did was criminal this time.
Yet he's POTUS. Guess voters were tired of the "squeaky clean dems" running for office all of the time...

NY & NJ are BLUE. NJ dem voters are so stupid they're going to vote Menedez back in.

Trump has a lot of questions of tax evasion which is why he keeps getting audited and couldn't release his taxes like just about every presidential candidate has done. Then there is all the Russian ties and questions of his campaign financing. At the very least on the Russian ties, he did nothing and knew nothing, at worst this is a Watergate. I don't get why this is so hard to understand?
It depends on the NATURE of one's business when it comes to why a business would "keep getting audited".
An audit every 2-4 years doesn't imply "wrong doing".

As for his biggotry, this dates back well into his days of just being a real estate celebrity. Central Park 5 anyone? Hell, he STILL hasn't apologized about all that. What about the whole Obama birth certificate thing? What about the whole Pocohontas deal with Elizabeth Warren? What about his cluster bomb of the border back in June/July?
Central Park 5? Where are the apologies to Kavanuagh & his family from all the dems/libs who assumed he was automatically guilty of what Ford accused him of?

As far as Obama goes? You'd think a grown ass man would know where his birth certificate was, or at least release his college apps so all could see if he applied as citizen or foreign national.

Warren got caught lying & why didn't you dems/libs have a better way to tell if someone is really a parent of a child illegally crossing the border as opposed to a coyote who has been raping that child the entire trip from whatever ****hole town south of the border they came from? Or a better way to keep the "genuine" families from running off & disappearing after given a court date to show up for?

The Repugnanicans are entirely party over country and the handling of the Kavanaugh allegations and hearing prove just that.

If at least one article of impeachment passes on the House floor, then the President has been impeached.

Both Presidents Bill Clinton and Andrew Johnson were impeached, but neither of them was removed from office because neither of them was convicted at the end of a trial in the Senate.

R is right, impeachment is done n the house, trial is held in the senate.


as for the OP, trump knows what kind of hell would be unleashed by the demonrats if they win the house, or the senate. why do you think he is pushing so hard for republicans to win in the midterm elections.
