Fair enough brother. Flagpole has pretty much flipped our side as it's never ending. Winter, then it was Spring, then wait till Summer, then Fall, he's a broken record and has turned me into a neutral Switzerland type of guy.
I have not called for any time frame other than by end of his first term.
Mueller is coming.
The clown is done.

Trump has no ability to make anything run well. Everything he touches is destroyed. Any prospering will be DESPITE Trump, not because of Trump.

You lost in 2016 when you voted for HER. As long as she's not in Office, we're a happy party. Obama sucked and lied to the nth degree...my life went on. You, you've wasted months and months of you life on here like a baby loser. Who's the one who is tired of losing?

Just like when Obama was in charge. He costed us thousands on a health care plan that he admittedly never read.

At least Obama read. Trump hasn't read anything in decades. Anything.

No, you're just an ignorant buffoon when it comes to politics. It's all a game. Due try to keep up and understand that you have zero influence in the game, let alone this little forum with a dozen posters.
Hmm, I guess I triggered someone.
“Due try to keep up”.
Classic. lol.

President Trump is just giving our friends and allies tough love. They need to take responsibility for their own defense, instead of depending on the US.

Can you please give us some examples of how Obama "lied to the nth degree"? Try not to use the tired old "if you like your plan you can keep your plan".

Let that sink in, moran Republicans.
God help us and the world for what you have done.
The resignation of Mattis is worth at least 20 Republican Senator votes on conviction of impeachment.

How many Republican senators have spoken out about it? How many criticized the president (indirectly) regarding Mattis?
From what I can tell, the answer is that it's only 4. It's Graham, McConnell, Sasse, and Rubio. Any of those might still oppose impeachment/conviction.
We are talking about spineless weasels. This doesn't get us much closer to the 20 we need.

Same song and dance they've always done
"I am just outraged! This is unacceptable!" *proceeds to do nothing about it*
These people won't even vote to give Mueller even a little protection. Tells you all you need to know
Good morning! How are all you LRC stable geniuses doing this fine am?

Exactly! There is, unfortunately, no scenario where I think the current cadre of GOP Senators grows a spine and/or brain and votes to convict Trump if he is impeached.
Trump was correct in saying he could shoot someone in the middle of 5th Avenue and his base would still support him. If his base supports him then GOP Senators who clearly only care about their own political careers will not stick their necks out. Trump still has an approval rating in the high 80%s(!) among self identified GOP voters. Let that number sink in.
Unless his support among GOP voters falls into the 60% range, there is no way enough GOP Senators would vote to convict. While disappointing, that is reality.

Here's the difference:
McConnell won't call a vote to give Mueller protection.
Just like he wouldn't call a vote on Merrick Garland.
He protected the senators from casting a formal vote in those instances. I think Garland may have actually been confirmed if they held a vote as would a Mueller resolution pass.
If there is an impeachment trial, there is no choice of whether to call a vote or not.
The trial must conclude with a vote.
If serious crimes get exposed in this trial and some Republican leaders speak up and announce they will convict, enough others may follow.
But once Trump hears the numbers are against him, he will resign first to save a little face.

That's not entirely true. If the house votes to impeach, the senate is not required by the constitution to even hold a trial, much less a vote. The problem is that the constitution doesn't say how quickly the senate must take the matter up. It's kind of like when Mitch ignored advice and consent on Merrick Garland. He just let the clock run out on the session of congress.
There is a senate rule that says the senate must take up impeachment matters almost immediately. But senate rules can always be changed. So it would come down to a vote to change the rules, which would in effect be a vote on whether or not to proceed with the trial.
