Left leaners LOVE stamping people with labels. Yellow badges come to mind.

Schiff doesnt get to invent laws. There is no such thing as claiming obstruction of congress, for when the executive branch wants the judicial branch to rule on something. That is exactly the way our system of govt is set up.There is no such crime as schiff is making up.
It is no different than if you were on trial, and wanted to consult with an atty before being questioned, and the police officer telling you that you will be charged with obstruction if you dont answer questions now.

Which makes him more sympathetic to anyone paying attention and less sympathetic to the dems. Because we can see through it.

Again, I don't make the rules. Again, Trump is impeached. The end.

Meh. In the end, I think he will realize that this will keep his name alive for a long time to come. After all, would anybody be talking about Andrew Johnson right now if he never was impeached?

And nobody really looks down on presidents for being impeached. Better to be remembered for a minor blemish than forgotten altogether, like, say, Chester Arthur.

In 150 years, it will be as though you and I never existed, but people will still know about Trump. Knowing his ego, that should make him very happy.

Me thinks impeachment is not a good look for a president, no matter how much they would like to spin it.

And I'm not sure there will still be people on this earth in 150 years.

Yes, I am so p!$$ed off at Andrew Johnson for firing that guy in his cabinet!!! LOL.

Sure, right when it happens it’s not usually a good look. I say “usually” because people are equally split, so to half the people, it is not a bad look on the president, but it is a bad look on the house. To the other half, it is a bad look on the president, but lets face reality, he looked bad to those people before the impeachment.

Historically though, nobody really cares. Sure it is an asterisk, but an asterisk says little more than “Hey look at me.” Which is something Trump loves. If he hasn’t already thought it through, once he does, I think he will be fine with it.

Only in your mind, not by the definition of the law.


But then again, liberals are opposed to the rule of law and individual liberties, as they are totalitarians who are only concerned with tribalism and forcing their views upon everyone else.


Fortunately, we have laws and a Constitution to protect us from the tyranny of liberalism. When thwarted by the law and the Constitution, liberals scream like a vampire exposed to sunlight and retreat back to their dark, gloomy recesses.
