Donald Trump - All things impeachment.... | Acquitted in the Senate

[nimic]

Zero chance in Senate.

It's zero chance until the electoral consequences get bad enough for Senate Republicans, at which point they will abandon him, like they did Nixon. The way this story is progressing, with the staggering incompetence of Trump's team, it's looking more likely than ever. It's still not looking very likely, mind, but this has ten times the legs the Russia thing ever did.

If nothing else, this hurts Trump's re-election chances. It might not convince any of his hardcore base, but he needs more than his hardcore base to win in 2020. He can't afford this.

At least four national security officials raised concerns over efforts to pressure Ukraine

At least four national security officials raised concerns over the Trump administrations’ efforts to pressure Ukraine with a White House lawyer, the Washington Post reports:

The nature and timing of the previously undisclosed discussions with National Security Council legal adviser John Eisenberg indicate that officials were delivering warnings through official White House channels earlier than previously understood — including before the call that precipitated a whistleblower complaint and the impeachment inquiry of the president.

At the time, the officials were unnerved by the removal in May of the U.S. ambassador to Ukraine; subsequent efforts by Trump’s lawyer Rudolph W. Giuliani to promote Ukraine-related conspiracies; as well as signals in meetings at the White House that Trump wanted the new government in Kiev to deliver material that might be politically damaging to Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden.

The officials reportedly raised concerns both before and immediately after Donald Trump’s July call with Ukrainian president Volodymyr Zelenskiy. It’s unclear whether any of the same officials later spoke with the whistleblower who filed the complaint now central to the Democrat’s impeachment inquiry.

One official who had listened on the call immediately went to White House lawyer Eisenberg, and at least two others did so by the end of the day, according to the Post.

It’s unclear whether or how Eisenberg acted on the complaints, or if he informed White House counsel Pat Cipollone of what he had heard.

quid pro quo.
Almost every one of them is up to some crime of their own. McConnell especially is up to his neck I believe.

Besides there is no longer a Republican party.
It is the Trump party.

EDIT:

Those 43% will show up. Any Republican going against Trump is done.

Surprise. Graham actually is an Erdogan sympathizer.
Can the press finally stop believing any word this man says as if every time he speaks against Trump he might have had some sort of epiphany? Graham blows whichever way the wind goes publically but is an insider cnut behind the scenes 100% of the time.

He's possibly an even bigger joke than Trump.

Trump has started his 2020 campaign in normal vicious mode here in Minnesota.
The guy is good.

They were lapping it all up.

Looks like Bolton will be asked to testify if true.

 

[Adisa]

John Bolton is not corrupt. Just a pure unadulterated warmonger.

That man never forgot an insult either.

Looking forward to hearing Fox news explain how Bolton has been deep state all along.

 

[fishfingers15]

John Bolton, well and truly welcome to the resistance @Eboue

Looking forward to hearing Fox news explain how Bolton has been deep state all along.

The Fox and Friends, Lou Dobbs and Hannity crew will go there for sure.

Relying on Bolton to save us is like having sex to save the friendship.
