As I said in the previous post Nixon was impeached after he resigned and they probably knew Ford was gonna pardon him anyway. Made them look bipartisan without actually doing anything bipartisan.Beware of DogComment

And the same claims were made about the Republican Party as recently as 2006 and 2008.Scramby eggs and bacon.Comment

Who knows what still lies in wait regarding Trump's business holdings and dealings? Or the Russian hacking and what other dossiers have as yet to come to light?
I'd tend to think the Republicans in Congress will try to get as much mileage in the form of legislation out of Trump (unless he plans to rule solely via Executive Order) before they would even consider impeaching him. And even then, nothing Trump has done thus far would rise to the level of impeachment. Will he eventually (if not sooner) overreach? Absolutely.
Ryan and McConnell would be just as happy - and probably happier - to see Pence installed as President as they would be to keep Trump.
In three years, if the economy is still chugging along at 1-2% growth, unemployment hasn't spiked in a substantial way, gas is under $3 a gallon and no personal scandals or foreign blunders come to pass, Trump will probably win a 2nd term. He's going to have to fuck up in a far more substantial way than some think he has thus far to get removed. And if it came down to that, it wouldn't shock me if Trump was willing to do what Nixon wouldn't, which is use the United States Armed Forces as a barrier to physical removal under his command.Scramby eggs and bacon.Comment

Basically a waste of a column....
No way on The Invisible Man's green earth that a Republican-ruled Congress would even consider impeachment proceedings....
I don't even think they would do that if (when?) evidence is discovered directly linking Trump to the Russians....
And he will.Comment

No he won't. You'd love him too, to justify your own failed drug addicted existence, you feeble minded fool.Comment

That's what I'm getting at. What has polarized the country is those kind of issues. My dad's side of the family was Democrat because they all belonged to unions and my mom's side of the family were Republican because they were very independent minded farmers and ranchers. To be honest I really didn't see much difference in them. They all went to church in Sunday and were religious. They all had a killer work ethic. They all hated communism and were patriots. They just differed on who they voted for on the ballot because of how they made their livings. Voting your pocket book if you will. Nowadays social issues tend to be the dividing point. Each side are pretty extreme from the other. Hell if you went up to your average Jimmy Carter Democrat in the 70's and said I think gays should get married they would think you were nuts and if you said I think a man should have the right to become a woman if he chooses to they might be locking you up in a padded cell or at least suggesting some serious couch time. Democrats became progressives and to many it's a real freak show. My friends in Hong Kong think they are certifiably nuts. They come to San Francisco and they go to London and think the west has lost it's mind.No! You can't have the keys to the wine cellar!Comment

Hell almost everyone who has held the office in my lifetime has failed. My whole life I've just watched the federal government get bigger, more incompetent as our national debt grows and more Get Out of Jail Free cards for the insider crooks.No! You can't have the keys to the wine cellar!Comment

Trump has a lot of latitude to do what he sees fit considering we are still in a seemingly never ending "War On Terror!!!"
