I wish people realized that. (Perhaps they do, and the rallying cry of "Impeach Trump!" carries a lot of force.

At the rate we are going by November 2026 things will be so awful in this country from a depression, another pandemic, possible WW3 or a more natural disasters where fema is not there to help Americans. And the 🍑💩 only cares about himself and will continue lying he is the greass’t ever!

Half pint just told us the Democrats are taking back the Senate as well as the House, in huge numbers because that's the only way to kick the Felon to the curb.

I wonder who has tinier shoes to fill, half pint or Tom Delay in his tenure.

To reach the 67 votes necessary to convict a president after the House impeachment.

Then JD Vance becomes president.

All we have to do is take back the house, and the subpoena's will be issued, and investigations will begin

Even though we won't have 67 votes in the Senate. When a POtuS has committed so many high crimes, impeachment is a sworn duty in the House regardless of what happens in the Senate.

I was just pointing out the ridiculousness of Mike Johnson’s statement.

And my math was wrong. Since R's currently hold 53 seats, D's (with independents) would have to pick up 20 seats.
