The Inevitability of Impeachment

The New York Slimes gives you five free articles to look at for free. I have three left. Anybody want them? I won’t be reading this crap anymore.

Even Republicans may be deciding that the president has become too great a burden to their party or too great a danger to the country

An impeachment process against President Trump now seems inescapable. Unless the president resigns, the pressure by the public on the Democratic leaders to begin an impeachment process next year will only increase. Too many people think in terms of stasis: How things are is how they will remain. They don’t take into account that opinion moves with events.

Whether or not there’s already enough evidence to impeach Mr. Trump — I think there is — we will learn what the special counsel, Robert Mueller, has found, even if his investigation is cut short

The word “impeachment” has been thrown around with abandon. The frivolous impeachment of President Bill Clinton helped to define it as a form of political revenge. But it is far more important and serious than that: It has a critical role in the functioning of our democracy.

    I really did laugh out loud.

    I applaud your choice. May you feel as liberated as I did the day we quit recycling. 😀

    What an epic inside-a-bubble, insulated masturbatory fantasy that was. (Just read your snippet, didn’t go to the Slimes link.)

    It’d be sadly funny if you heard it from some lunatic bum on the streets. That it gets widely read by people who all nod sagely in agreement is scary funny.

    LIke that lunatic bum, such folks and I truly do not have a shared reality.
