Not hardly. Mr. Meijer, and many, many others in Washington need to remember why we sent them.

turbguy + 1,554 February 13, 2021 Once Trump got into politics, he came to realize (with growing intoxication) that the more incendiary he was, the more his fans would cheer. Like attending a WWE match. With a bible. He found that he could really play with the emotions of the crowd, and that turned him on. A positive feedback loop. Now he had the chance to command a mob, so his words could be linked to their actions. ...and yet, his followers call those who disagree ,"sheep"... 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Wake up to the normal real world. Fact check. Clinton was guilty of perjury (that's how Americans spell it, do try to keep up) and "lying about sex". There is zero doubt in this. Whether that amounted to "high crime and misdemeanor" was the only question and the votes went down party lines at the time. There's a world of difference between lying repeatedly during an investigation and what has happened to Trump, twice. Remember that during this peachmint the defense attorney humiliated the democrats, playing video of them demanding impeachment before Trump even took office! What, exactly in your crack addled mind was his crime then? Why wasn't Biden impeached after he left office for the high crime and misdemeanor of officially withholding aid to Ukraine unless they fired the prosecutor investigating his son? Oh, you argued he wasn't in office so it didn't matter. Now do you feel like an ass, or is self reflection impossible for your low EQ? 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The "jury" of the Senate failed to reach the required quorum, hence acquittal is the proper term. Except this is clown world now so who the hell knows anymore?

JoMack + 549 JM February 14, 2021 So, once again, Pelosi goes berserk and drags the country into another impeachment, like the first one wasn't enough, to continue to teach that interloper Trump, and any future interloper that if you break into the inner sanctum of the in crowd, you will be destroyed. So, try, try again, and it's a bust. We are a laughingstock to the world, as our government becomes more and more insane with a President who is barely alive and making decisions made by the WOKE. We're losing crude oil production from 2019, 13 million barrels to 2021, 10.9 million barrels and Biden's putting together climate change agencies all over the government while Yellen is making a pitch to keep the banks from issuing loans to the oil and gas industry. So, the Solyndra's of the world will get subsidies like never before, and the continuing hit against this so called existential threat of oil and natural gas will devastate the economy and national security. Meanwhile, Biden has halted arms to Saudi Arabia and UAE and ended support for Saudi led coalition in Yemen and called for a ceasefire. Six days later, the Iran backed Houthi rebels sent drones or ballistic missiles and hit the Abha airport. Biden is a puppet of the left and in the next 6 months will we start to see the impact of Biden's first 3 weeks in office. Now, would be a good time for a real impeachment. 4 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
