Stupid is as...well you know the rest. 6 hours ago, twa said: on a lighter note.... Do you ever have anything of substance? I'm sorry that was unfair. You are a trump supporter. You can't have anything of substance because he has no substance( Other than whatever is holding his hair together). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mistertim Posted December 18, 2019 Share Posted December 18, 2019 "No other president in US history has ever been impeached 10 months before an election." said one R Congressman. So apparently that's a standard now? If Obama had pushed a foreign power to investigate Mitt Romney in the summer of 2011 and it was discovered the Dems could have said "No impeachment 10 months before an election" and the Republicans would have gone "damn! thwarted again!" and shook their fists at the sky? Good god they're really pulling out all the stops on ludicrous arguments here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barry.Randolphe Posted December 18, 2019 Share Posted December 18, 2019 Why does it seem the transcript placement in double top secret storage to try and cover up his bull**** has fallen off the radar? that's pretty damning evidence of intent to obstruct Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here, even without testimony from Mulvaney, Giuliani, Perry, etc and with literally zero cooperation on documents requested and later subpoenaed from the WH, there's still so much evidence and so much wrongdoing that it's hard to keep track of it all and form it into a simple argument. That being said, I don't think the Dems have done an especially good job of staying on point on certain topics (though IMO Schiff was much better than Nadler). I think they should have driven home things like you mentioned over and over again. Why is he acting like the world's most guilty person if everything was perfect? Why is he blocking all testimony and the release of any documents if everything was perfect? Why was the conversation moved to a code name server if it was perfect? If I try to rob someone but run away before he can give me his wallet, did I do nothing wrong? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

skinflint2019 Posted December 18, 2019 Share Posted December 18, 2019 How can this be? The impeachment train was supposed to have people jumping on board, not off. Support for impeachment and removal among Democrats has dipped from 90% in November to 77% now. https://www.cnn.com/2019/12/16/politics/impeachment-poll-cnn/index.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mistertim Posted December 18, 2019 Share Posted December 18, 2019 It seems like the Republicans are sticking to saying "He committed no crimes", "He's a duly elected POTUS and you're trying to overturn a vote", and "the facts say he did nothing wrong" (without actually saying which nonexistent facts they're talking about). Add: oh, and "Zalinzki said he wasn't pressured" is another one they're hanging their hats on. "Hey that hostage with a gun to his head was just asked if his captor was a nice guy and he said 'ABSOLUTELY!'...I guess we can all just go home now" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mistertim Posted December 18, 2019 Share Posted December 18, 2019 "House will take up the measure on whether this is a red ball." *places red ball on the table* Democrats: "That is a red ball" Republicans: "That is a purple seahorse" Democrats: "Wait, what? Look at it...it's a red ball" Republicans: "Why are you trying to disenfranchise purple seahorses?" Democrats: "That doesn't even make any sense" Republicans: "Also, you put that red ball on the table in the wrong way; the process is irrevocably flawed" Democrats: "Wait, you just admitted it was a red ball" Republicans: "No we didn't" Democrats: "No, seriously, you just said that" Republicans: "No. WHY ARE YOU TRYING TO OVERTURN THE PURPLE SEAHORSES? WHAT IS THIS WORLD COMING TO? WHY ARE YOU SO MEAN?" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mistertim Posted December 18, 2019 Share Posted December 18, 2019 Just now, PCS said: I'm pretty sure Collins doesn't even know what he's talking about. Exactly. It's their entire strategy: talk in circles without making any discernible point, muddy the waters, throw **** at the wall, feed their base. And then accuse the other side of what you're doing. Rinse. Repeat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
