Official LRC President Donald J Trump Thread

Two Sides wrote:

Wouldn't it be funny if there was no whistle blower.

Dems just made it up to get Trump to look for one and release the transcript of his call.

What is funny is that Trump had one of his hand-picked people created the whistleblower report. The reason is that Trump was dying to be impeached as a reason for cancelling the 2020 elections during which he, and the Republicans, will get crushed.

Trump's only hope is to let the Democrats impeach him, demand a Civil War, with Executive Orders removing as many Democrats from Congress as he likes (all of them, because they failed his loyalty test). Then he can claim himself Deer Leader and ramp up his pilfering of the U.S. Treasury; and when he is ready to hand over his Leadership it will be to Don Jr with Ivanka as his second in command.

Neither do Democrats really these days.

Nope. You are wrong.

News from Moscow Mitch. He reportedly just said he would take up impeachment if it passes the house:

“How long you are on it is a different matter, but I would have no choice but to take it up based on a Senate rule on impeachment,” he said, adding that Senate “impeachment rules are very clear.”

I think this quote reinforces the narrative that I offered earlier. It sounds like Mitch could be planning to slow-walk the trial and take it far into election season. I suspect that then he would move to table the motion and let the voters decide.

That way, nobody has to take the tough vote on removal from office.

And . . . .

The ridiculous thing is that the whistle blower report is all hearsay (the whistle blower admits that he witnessed nothing, he just heard information second hand). It wouldn't stand up in any court. Pardon my saying so, but Biden's debt ridden, drug addict, prostitute loving son (which actually is in evidence) starts making stacks of cash (again in evidence) off of foreign entities for positions he is not qualified for while his father is in the vice presidency with fairly direct influence over relations with those nations does bear an investigation, regardless of which party you support. The Democrats have rumors, the Republicans have financial records, which do you find more convincing?

Lear you something. The hearsay of Linda Tripp was sufficient for Republicans to launch an inquiry and impeachment Bill Clinton.

Those proceedings left a real stain on the oval office.

I thought the Supreme Court nomination rules were very clear.

Advice and consent of the Senate means that the Senate must vote on the president's nominee.

He broke those rules.

No stain was discovered by Republicans on the Oval Office.

But the memo from the White House confirmed the hearsay.

We don't need the whistle blower. We have our own eyes of what the president provided.

He asked the president of the Ukraine to investigate a political rival while withholding funds from the Ukraine.

Simple

The scenario would be that Trump is removed from office by the senate.

He can't run third party then.

Yes he can. And he would.

The senate would need to hold a separate vote to bar Tiny from holding office. But even then, Tiny could still run while fighting the senate's decision in court.

Each state would get to decide if he gets on the ballot. Even if he doesn't get on the ballot, he could run as a write-in.

Basically, he could screw with the election and he probably would do it.

Luv these TDS infected scenarios that will NEVER happen. Lunatics.

It does assume he will be removed by the senate, which I don't think will happen. I think Moscow Mitch will do everything he can to avoid even taking a vote.

And of course, he won't leave office peacefully even if the senate votes to remove him.

There are only four ways an authoritarian like Tiny leaves office:

1) Dies in office.

2) Thrown in prison

3) Flees to exile

4) Taken out back and shot

If he is alive before the election, he will still try to run for president no matter what.

Fats he's not really one of those authoritarians who try to hang on to power, is he?

Trump is a mob guy. That's who he is. Mob guys always think they will get out of trouble in the end. Or they flip on their colleagues to get a deal.

Nobody attacked you personally, princess. Flagpole is an imbecile. By aligning yourself with him and defending his idiotic predictions you are just proving that you will overlook idiocy if it comes from your own party. In other words, a partisan hack. It is possible for both Rigged and Flagpole to be wrong (and both be idiots). I would advise you not to join the two of them on that hayride.

Fat hurts wrote:

I'm not defending either prediction.

Flagpole was wrong to say unequivocally that Hillary would definitely win. And I believe I was the first to say so.

But Rigged is even more wrong to say that Tiny definitely will not be impeached.

I was attacked personally. I used my past statement to prove that the poster's personal attack was misguided.

If attacked on a personal basis, I will defend myself on that same basis.

All of this talk about Trump's potentially running for President after being impeached and removed (purely hypothetical, of course--will never happen) seems to conflict with Article I, Section 3:

-

"Judgment in Cases of Impeachment shall not extend further than to removal from Office, and disqualification to hold and enjoy any Office of honor, Trust or Profit under the United States: but the Party convicted shall nevertheless be liable and subject to Indictment, Trial, Judgment and Punishment, according to Law." [emphases mine]

-

The interesting question: Does that mean punishment won't be *worse* than that, but could be less? For instance, could a president be impeached and convicted but NOT removed?

-

Or, if we think that impeachment and conviction *automatically* means removal . . . does the disqualification to hold federal office automatically follow? Who would decide? Could the Senate make stipulations in its guilty verdict?

That would be a stretch. But, Trump could care less. He won't care if he can run or not, or if he cannot debate anyone, or get partially reimbursed for running for president again.

What Trump actually cares about is having a platform—a fake one at that—where he can convince his people to throw money at him like he was a male strip-dancer. Lining his pockets courtesy of his ban of gullibles is all he cares about.

House Intelligence Committee subpoenas Giuliani for Ukraine documents

“A growing public record indicates that the President, his agent Rudy Giuliani, and others appear to have pressed the Ukrainian government to pursue two politically-motivated investigations,” the chairmen said in the statement. “The committees have reason to believe that you have information and documents relevant to these matters.”
