And then they made fun of Donny, while he was acting like a Queen, so he ran off home crying for his mommy. ;-)

Question #1) Do you believe the US House of Representatives will vote to impeach President Donald Trump?

House of Representatives Speaker Democrat Nancy Pelosi announced on Thursday that Democrats are moving ahead in the impeachment against US President Donald Trump.
"Our democracy is at stake," said Nancy Pelosi in the historic statement, saying that a vote could be made around Christmas.
Nancy Pelosi announced on Thursday that she has approved the work of a draft lawsuit against Donald Trump.
"The president used his power and his actions have seriously violated the constitution," she said.

I'm trying to have some positive thinking here:)


Well I'll try...

Whenever the zeitgeist gets me down, I read Donald Trump's personal twitter feed. Probably 90% or more of it is derogatory towards him, some of it very strongly in language and imagery I can't repeat here.

I'm not saying whether I agree with (some of... certainly not all of!) it or not, but I just note that it's there. He doesn't have assistants remove it all in real time forcing the writers to sue under 1st Amendment grounds to have it put back, which would certainly take a lot of time and effort (probably not money as it would be pro bono though!) and probably not impact him personally at all.

Then I wonder what would happen in China, Russia or Saudi Arabia, three other wealthy and influential nations with designs on replacing the U.S. as the most powerful country on Earth, if similar material were to be posted about their so-called leaders. (I say so-called as they more often lead by fear and intimidation than inspiration.) Results would range from a beating by thugs (state-ordered, not just independent "loose cannons") to assassination or execution.

So, as long as this basic right is upheld, I think that all is still well with the U.S., its president isn't nearly as monstrous as he is portrayed, and the only reason that we hear so much about U.S problems and not those a hundred times worse in other nations is that those nations suppress the right of communicating them, often violently, while the United States continues to uphold and even encourage it. And that, to me, is a very positive thing.

Hope this helped. :^)

I guess sort of. Trump is not a crook. But he push his ambitions to far to be reelected. The Zelensky/Trump discussion was about him wanting an investigation of the Biden/Ukraine affairs (Biden is of course an opponent to the office) in order that Ukraine should get military aids from the US.
Now that's very unconstitutionally according to US Constitution.

And his behaviour in the NATO meeting...

Include the other non American western leader's behavior in the NATO meetings.

They have again shown that the problem in replacing Trump with those that they wish. Is that the replacement(s) are the same or worse than Trump.

Clyde are you trying for a new world record in false equivalencies?

Looks like it as v2.0 himself has set the standards for politics these days by doing those things first to nearly all others.

"Hypocrite", is a word that always comes to mind all too often these days and v2.0 is the embodiment of that word.

Maybe, but the one title that can not be taken from him is:
"The World's Number 1 clown" with BoJo a close 2nd.
They both have something in common though:
They're both New Yorkers. :-)

Question #3) Do you believe the expense of time and taxpayer funds have benefited the Citizens of the United States of America?


Do YOU believe every time a guilty person is acquitted due to a technicality, poor argumentation from the prosecution or whatever is a waste? Fp UPI ;olr Frank Azar, the strong arm?

Do YOU believe the chopper talks are NOT a waste a fuel and therefore taxpayer money?

1) Absolutely

2) They wouldn't impeach him if he shot Chuck Schumer on the Senate Floor while they were in session.

3) Only time money was being wasted was when the hearings were being intentionally delayed for political showmanship.

4) Bribery is worse than burglary

I'm not so sure... the China trade deal will be confirmed in 2020 and kick the economy back into high gear... So I still think it's quite possible he may get a second term.


To expand on what I wrote earlier, here is an article written by a CNN editor that puts it in economic terms:
(Had to mention the CNN bit to I hope dispel a tiny bit of the idea that they have it in for Donald Trump. Probably won't help, but I try. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ )

The latest economic numbers -- 266,000 jobs created in November, unemployment at a 50-year low -- make one thing very clear: U.S. President Donald Trump has a path to win a second term next year.
...
In a CNN poll released late last month, Trump's overall job approval was a less-than-stellar 42% while a majority -- 54% -- disapproved. But those numbers were reversed when people were asked what they thought of Trump's handling of the economy. On that question, 52% approved while 40% disapproved. (It was the only area in the poll where a majority of respondents approved of the job Trump is doing.)
...
Because, well, it's been proven right over and over again. Incumbent presidents don't lose often. When they do, it's usually because the economy is perceived to be weak or faltering.

Take Jimmy Carter, who saw the unemployment and inflation rates soar during his time in office and watched as Ronald Reagan promised to turn things around. Or George H.W. Bush, whose sky-high poll numbers during the first Gulf War collapsed amid an economic recession and delivered the White House to Clinton. The only other president in the last nine decades to lose a bid for reelection was Gerald Ford -- and that was due in large part to his decision to pardon the man he replaced in office: Richard Nixon.

The data then is clear: It's very, very hard to beat an incumbent president unless the economy is seen by a majority of the public to be weakening badly.

Surprise! Rudolph Giuliani, attorney to U.S. President Donald J. Trump, swung by Kyiv on Dec. 4 for an unannounced two-day visit to gather even more information that could be used to discredit Trump’s political rivals and undermine an impeachment inquiry into his boss.

Andrii Telizhenko is a Conservative,Political Consultant, Diplomat, Former Advisor to the Prosecutor General of Ukraine, Former Advisor to the First Deputy Prime Minister of Ukraine:)

Meanwhile Trump in bed with Putin.
