BS charge, doesn’t remotely pass the legal threshold for such a charge.

There is no legal threshold for impeachment

No, but when you use a criminal offense as a reason to impeach is it unreasonable to notice, he didn’t commit that crime?

The majority of Americans disagree with your opinion

And? More than a quarter of Americans say they have seen ghosts.

Cool deflection

@FlameHeart

76 million Americans disagree with you on the 2020 election fraud.

Trump got about 74.3 million votes nationwide, and not all Americans who voted for Trump believe in his conspiracy theories and falsehoods about the 2020 election.

Surely they’ll get him this time. lol

Don’t be surprised if there’s nineteen Republicans willing to vote to convict.

@FlameHeart

A sexist mob was persuaded to believe that many women were witches during the Salem Witch Trials. Just because a majority holds an opinon does not mean that opinion is integral or intellectually sound.

It does however mean a President can be impeached.

Not a deflection, merely illustrating the worth of popular opinion when it comes to determining facts.

if there was a do over and a new election were to be held today after trumps attempted coup i doubt he would win more than a handful of states

[peek-a-boo]

I doubt the Senate will take this up before Trump leaves office.

[SixFoot]

I would be no more surprised to see that than I am seeing libs cheer on the federal government’s opportunity to turn the GWoT into a domestic front. It benefits me either way.

Not hardly. Everybody who voted for him doesn’t believe there was fraud.

And only need 17.

Just look at the GA runoff. David Perdue had the lead in the general election. In the runoff, after all of Trump’s shenanigans, he lost his Senate seat.

@FlameHeart

There are still requirements by law that must be satisfied before the articles of impeachment can be drawn out. I think that is what he’says referring to.

Such as?

[FlameHeart]

And not a lot of people believed the hoax that Trump incited a riot.

Of course Mitch isn’t going to touch it. Why would he suddenly grow a backbone now? He needs every Republican vote he can muster in the next election

[TommyLucchese]

@zantax

Ditto, don’t think the courts will uphold keeping him off the ballot though should he choose to run.

It’s a separate vote after impeachment and conviction and it’s already held up in court.

And you would be correct. Most likely sometime in late spring.

Ossoff and Warnock haven’t been sat yet.

@wonderingrover

If inciting an insurrection against the federal government doesn’t rise to the level of an impeachable offense, I don’t know what would.

He was not inciting an insurrection. He wanted an investigation of the November election.

The House is of a different opinion.

[Axxowiz]

In 9 days Biden takes over, this is just a political gambit because if you are impeached twice you can’t run again for office. It’s not going to happen.

It’s silly they should be talking about how they are going to govern which they aren’t. Raise taxes, more identity politics, rinse-repeat and end up ushering in another nutter into office.

[Chris]

I don’t know if I really agree with the Congress impeaching Trump with only nine days left, but I want Trump to be indicted after he leaves office. Trump may end up pardoning himself, but I believe that would be unconstitutional.
