And reduces us to a rubble. Those red state senators need to stand up ASAP!

They are so far gone they lost their humanity and compassion.

And you know, he was right.

As was said at the time: When you come for the king, you’d better not miss.

comment over the bows. There no votes in the House or senate to get that job done even with tons of money and belated threats.
Did they draw straws to see who would bell the cat?

too many cultists in the Senate for conviction.

I think the 25th Amendment is more likely, but think it would pit the true cultists against the merely greedy, ambitious opportunitsts. I'd put Vance and Rubio in the latter category.

Here's the current cabinet

Rubio, State
Bessent, Treaury
Hegseth, SecDef
Bondi, AG
Burgum, Interior
Brooke Rollins, Ag
Lutnick, Commerce
Chaez-DeRemer, Labor
RFK, Jr, HHS
Turner, HUD
Duffy, Transportation
Wright, Energy
McMahon, Edu
Collins, VA
Noem, DHS
Zeldin, EPA
Gabbard. DNI
Ratcliff, CIA
Greer, Trade Rep
Loeffler, SBA
Vought, OMB

I think the true cultists are Hegseth, Bondi, Noem, maybe Gabbard.
I put Rubio, Bessent, Lutnick, maybe Loeffler as the merely greedy, ambitious opportunists.

where it needs two thirds of the Senate and the House. So it's even harder than impeachment.

If the cabinet went first, I think it would free up the Rs who are just scared of Trump, the majority imo, to vote him out.

Actually a size Zero since I lost 15 pounds this last year while not even trying....it IS 100% tRump related. My doctor (who is a Dem, too) completely understands. At least I can wear all the clothes I've saved since high school. The weight distribution is different but they are actually lose on my 81 pounds body. If this keeps up I'll disappear completely within the next 12 months.

They propose to do that, I wonder.

but if the wealthy corporate class threatens to withhold unreported expensive gifts for lobbying Senators, some might persuaded to see it their way.

It will not be from patriotism, honor, or justice......just greed. Especially if they were looking at losing campaign funding.

You know that you are off the rails if you are a Republican (Trump) and the Wall Street Journal says that you should be impeached. Trump and MAGA are not even real Republicans. Old school Republicans were bad enough, but MAGA has basically consumed and replaced the old establishment Republican Party with a new Fascist Party. There is no place in that Party for moderate Republicans like Romney or principled Republicans like the late John McCain. The Republican Party has always had far right crackpots, but they usually did not control the Party. Establishment Republicans like Romney did. MAGA is a whole new breed of dumb, populist, far right extremists duped by the super rich tech bros and oligarchs. Trump and MAGA are a political cancer. They need to be cut out of our society.

Is acknowledge that it takes lead time to get to impeachment. During that time, he'll no doubt be criming it up with the world economy for all to see. Also to suffer the financial consequences of his unrealistic theory about tariffs. In that time, what would be going on is:

First a member of the House has to introduce a resolution for impeachment, which is sort of like introducing a bill.

Next is the House Judiciary Committee Review. Are there sufficient grounds for impeachment? That's what they have to determine.

This step alone will force them to go on record as traitors, especially after this last week's blatant insider trading display.

Next the House has to vote on the Articles of Impeachment, assuming they find sufficient cause.

After that is a Senate Trial, where Fellow Traitor Justice Roberts presides. Traitor or not, the impeachment charges are public and it will be embarrassing to try to let this go.

Finally we have the Senate Vote, where a 2/3 majority is needed to convict.

If he is removed, we get the grand prize: J.D. Vance!

But the main point I want to make with this post is that the whole time he's criming in plain sight with the world's economy, earning the disgust and approbation of even Wall Street, he has this hanging over his head. It might temper him a bit, and as Baitball Blogger points out upthread, it serves to show the world that we can maybe be trusted just a teensy weensy little bit that we still acknowledge the Constitution.

And yes, I am aware that Vance/Thiel supports a "reset with China."

I would add that if in the unlikely event Trump is impeached and we get JD Vance, at least Vance would get the message- mess around and you too can be impeached. I think Vance is pretty detestable, but he probably would be more manageable than Trump. Also, Vance is a charisma vacuum and would not inspire the MAGA base like the Trump Personality Cult does, and that is a good thing.

..but if the House and Senate win back majorities in '26, maybe. And all that depends on what happens between now and '26. Will there even be an election? And if there is and Dems win, the GOP will cry foul and DOJ will agree.

I'm wondering what the MAGA plan is to screw up the election...got to know Trump isn't just hoping to maintain the current situation. Somebody somewhere, is working on a strategy to stay in control...

Trump was impeached twice, 0 consequences. He would love the attention.
He'd make millions if not billions on it.

If the Republicans are caught between factions on this and want to have an intramural war with themselves over him,
more power to them - maybe.

Their editorial board endorsed Trump in 2024. Trump is mostly doing things he said he would do and they chose not to believe him. Offering another impeachment as a remedy for their own foolishness is just more juvenile wishful thinking. Fuck the WSJ.

But following through on a pre election promise to impose tariffs is an impeachable offense?


Money talks and this editorial speaks loud and clear.

support by any of those ass kissers wearing the tacky gold plated Trump pin on their lapels.

I am assuming he's using the Tropic Thunder "full retard,."

I think the "full retard," act is all part of Trump's smoke screen.

he just knows from experience HE WILL NEVER BE HELD ACCOUNTABLE

there isn't a republican anywhere who would do the right thing at this point. They didn't when he caused an insurgency against the government; he's not been even slowed down by them in his continuing coup. Why in the world would be think there'd be enough now?

He is so confused! He is Neurotic!

How about he is playing for the other side? admit that and everything makes a lot more sense. He is not accidently doing anything.
