Many of the supporters of this current impeachment would themselves be impeached under their own vague definitions of “incitement” they now apply to Trump.

The man sent a mob to disrupt an election signoff that he lost. That's exactly the type of action the founding fathers would have kicked a president out of office for.

News flash: Nancy was never impeached. Rumpy on the other hand single handedly owns half of the POTUS impeachments to date
And I like how the argument for the multiple attempts to impeach Trump try to frame them in a bubble {comma} as if Trump wasn't engaging in actions from the moment he stepped in office that justified impeaching him.
that man never had a sense of propriety or respect for the office, and treated it like another grift. Extorting an ally for personal gain and sending a mob to disrupt the transfer of power are two separate and holy justified reasons to impeach somebody. The fact that he wasn't impeached the first time just goes to show the complicity the GOP had in making Trump feel he was invincible.
Pelosi changed the rules.."snap impeachment" because the current process would have taken too long.
And who in Congress is going to argue with her ?
It's moot anyway since the Senate is not going to do anything between now and 1/20. After that..Trump is a private citizen and per our Constitution we don't impeach private citizens.
There is precedent to do this. I for one hope they move forward. We don’t need that orange man having access to intelligence briefings or holding office

Weak precedent at that. One guy who, in the middle of the trial, ran and handed in his resignation to become a private citizen before the vote.
It won't happen....just wait and see. Those 100 days will come and go.
Nancy wanted public revenge and she got it with her kangaroo court.

All presidents treat the office like a grift, but guess what, bucko. Trump is the only POTUS of late who will be leaving office less wealthy than he entered it, so your accusation is just hate, nothing more.
And please, provide us a QUOTE of exactly what he said that constitutes sending a mob. Time now, bucko, to put up or shut up. I expect crickets. Prove me wrong.
