conspiracy to overturn the 2016 election

Again.

How are the going to make Hillary the president with this process?

Ghost of Ignorance reports news with a dumb@ss bias.

Alexis de Tocqueville, 1835: “A decline of public morals in the United States will probably be marked by the abuse of the power of impeachment as a means of crushing political adversaries or ejecting them from office.”

Should be fun though, seeing the partisan hacks from both sides ginning for the TV. The turmoil and drama will be more interesting than a House of Cards re-run.

?

I know who I think is more credible.

You seem rational Jesse. Can we get you to do proxy voting for the stupid and uninformed?

I’m enjoying my current situation so much, I may have to refuse other offers.

Alexis de Tocqueville (A Frenchman): "... the word 'left' is...the word I wanted to attach to my name so that it would remain attached to it forever."

In Democracy in America, Tocqueville seems nothing more than an impressionable amanuensis [a person who writes what another dictates]—and perhaps a too-willing mouthpiece for the moneyed classes of New York and Boston, who, Damrosch shows in Tocqueville's Discovery of America, celebrated Tocqueville's unpropitious landfall with predictable provincial pomp. (That reception is recounted, too, in Peter Carey's ventriloquistic new novel, Parrot and Olivier in America.) Tocqueville took the word [of others] of one prominent New Yorker who told him, at the peak of the bank war and two years after the inauguration of Andrew Jackson, that no partisan rancor roiled the United States, and trusted another who assured him, within a year of the nullification crisis and Nat Turner's rebellion, that the American commercial spirit would never permit damage to the Union. Not a decade after the declaration of the Monroe Doctrine, he felt assured the United States had "no foreign interests to discuss." He imbibed the Federalist critique of Andrew Jackson during a brief conversation with a Boston Brahmin but declined to engage the president himself when he had the opportunity of a private audience. Tocqueville praised New England town meetings but never bothered to observe one. Nor any revival camp meetings. He didn't visit a single American college. It took the Frenchman just one Sunday in New York to conclude he had arrived in a religious nation, and when a friendly priest dismissed the many unorthodox Protestant sects emerging on the American frontier—in the greatest flowering of religious sentiment for a nation marked deeply and weirdly by religious expression—Tocqueville agreed that the country was headed for Catholicism.

That base would include 3 stooges: you, Rigged and Sally... not convinced? Here's an example:

2016:

Conman: You see that swamp in DC, vote for me because I will drain it.

3 stooges: You've got our vote!

2019:

Conman: I've accomplished close to nothing I promised, I bring ridicule to the White House every single day, and the swamp is actually bubbling... BUT Obama, deep state and Hillary!

3 stooges: Yes dear leader, those traitor Congressmen, Senators, citizens, war heroes, whistleblowers and allies.. they are all traitors who just want to bring you down, never mind that you are completely inept and criminal. You've got our vote!

Trump now saying HE has been looking for al-baghdadi for many years and then claiming a dog captured and killed him... why must he lie about even the most trivial things?

He’s like Flagpole. He’s told so many lies and exaggerations that you can’t tell what is a lie or truth anymore. You just have to assume it’s a lie.

OK, Trump was duly elected.

What does that have to do with the fact that he committed impeachable offenses this year and since the conclusion of the Mueller investigation?

Was the election a free pass to do whatever he wants?

1) "Duly elected" is debatable. He cheated so much so that it's a FELONY the way that he did. I argue that's not "duly elected>

2) Your second sentence is valid of course. Whether he was duly elected or not is immaterial. He has committed new crimes since he was elected. He has admitted he did it. He then DID it on camera. Mulvaney admitted it. Giuliani admitted it. Tons of witnesses say he did.

3) Of course an election is not a free pass to do whatever he wants.

Flagpole - you just convinced me. Trump WILL not be impeached. Because of a fricking phone call. NO - you Liberals have been trying for 3 years to get him. This phone call is the latest BS - I am really fricking tired of your stuff. Trump is going nowhere. He is here for the remaining part of his presidency. just accept it. Don't be little crybabies.

you would think Sally would know by now the difference between impeachment and removal.

aw who am I kidding.

Please do NOT say that Trump has not served in the military. He IS the COMMANDER-IN-CHIEF so he heads up the military. He IS IN the military He is leading the troops in the military. He is down in the trenches with those troops. Give the guy fricking credit for being in the military!

The trump royal family has duly elected sally & ghost as Chief Bvllsh!tters to the Bvllsh!tter-in-Chief.

Our last 3 Presidents have been the worst in US history. Looking at the Dem candidates, we’ll likely get another one.

I seriously don’t think the US can survive 4-8 more years.

The term commander in chief has NOTHING to do with the military moron.

Too late - you already got on board with him having committed an impeachable offense, now you're acting like a crime can't be committed via a phone call lol

When Sally gets legit bulldozed (daily), ze digs deep into deep troll mode to try to throw us off the scent. But we still smell pure stupid.

Commander-in-chief needs to be hyphenated. DO NOT EVER tell me one thing when you don't know something as basic as that. You got it?
