You know things are bad when even Ben Shapiro rips into Trump.

I honestly don't think anything will be done.

The Republicans will be counting down the hours and wondering how much damage Trump can possibly caused when he's been totally isolated and social media networks are finally willing to cut him off. Nobody will organize a rally for him, and they'll do a risk:benefit analysis and conclude that it's better to pretend like everything is fine and wait him out.

The X factor are the members of the mob and what they do next but they seem very decentralized and unless the Trump children start inciting I'm just not sure they have what it takes to organize into anything serious.

One thing to keep in mind too is that there is a number of Republicans whom Trump has potential blackmail material on. Pay close to who is "outraged" but not enough to say we should invoke the 25th (looking at you Lady G)

Ben Shapiro is a joke and just another Lindsey Graham.

I read that if Trump was impeached Pence could pardon him.

Maybe, we’ll see

Can impeachment hearings happen after his presidency is done? I think Impeachment is important because it would prevent him from running for office again.

I'd actually prefer that over the 25th amendment. If he's really fleeing the White House, I don't really think he's going to come out in public again for the next 2 weeks.

anitram · 01-07-2021, 06:00 PM

I honestly think the 25th is problematic in this context IF the goal is to prevent further carnage.

For Pence, who has now been declared a traitor by the mob, to start a process that puts him in the role of Acting President while Trump fights back (no way is he gong to agree that he's not competent mentally) would only further convince the lunatics that the "swamp" is against them and that this was all a coup and so on. They'd become unhinged overnight and would squarely turn on the remaining Republicans other than the current crop of standouts like Cruz and Hawley. I just don't see how this is in any way palatable to the GOP.

gump · 01-07-2021, 06:05 PM

Well Pence is against the 25th, but it looks like the House will put articles of impeachment on the floor.

Headache - is it "cancel my subscription to the

How are and your family today?

Irving? LN7? How r u?

Too tired to be more coherent for now. Later.

MrsSpringsteen · 01-07-2021, 06:12 PM

Reporter on CNN just said that if he was impeached Congress could then pass legislation declaring that he could never run again. That would be the ultimate goal.

No way is there enough time to impeach him now.

I'm certain he knows that based on his people are strange comment.
And yes the thread tittle is a play on that lyric.

Eight foot high metal fence going up around the Capitol. Capitol police chief resigning.

MrsSpringsteen · 01-07-2021, 06:46 PM

CNN reporting that a Capitol police officer has died. They didn't say if the officer was injured or shot by a rioter.

Sure there is. You don’t need a giant trial. Present the articles, take vote. Send to senate and let those traitors been seen by the world

Totally fine. Kept my phone fully charged yesterday, just in case, but I’m far enough away that it was no problem. Thank you for asking.
