The Senator Posted April 21, 2019 Author Share Posted April 21, 2019 12 hours ago, dubs said: This woman is an embarrassment. It blows me away that people actually listen to her. She should be shunned, Dwight Schrute style. I think she pretty much IS shunned, outside The People’s Republic of Massachusetts! . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On one side you have people calling for an end to the electoral college and the other side calling to repeal the 17th amendment. Hopefully the latter prevails. 5 minutes ago, row_33 said: Again with one line totally out of context from Trump to label his whole existence, you can do better than that... Good thing the USA is a Republic, not a democracy He thought Obama was going to lose the popular vote but win with the electoral college. I took nothing out of context.

transplantbillsfan Posted April 21, 2019 Share Posted April 21, 2019 20 hours ago, Doc Brown said: Pelosi's "he's not worth it" is the right tactic. Impeachment talks backfired on Gingrich in the '98 midterms and she's well aware of that. Dems that focused on the issues in the midterms (specifically healthcare) did well. Most people have made their mind up on Trump already anyways and the Mueller Report won't change that. Impeachment proceedings are pointless since you're not going to get close to enough Senators to throw him out of office. Let the people decide in 2020. Well-reasoned post here. But things are a bit sad with politics these days. Similar or even lesser offenses to what Trump was presented to do in the Mueller Report got Nixon out of office. This irrefutable Republican defense of Trump is part of what flipped the house in 2018. McConnell is smart... what's the game here? He doesn't want to lose all 3 branches to Democrats, but that's looking more likely if Democrats play their hand right. Trump deserves impeachment, in my opinion. But I hope Pelosi doesn't do it, largely for the reasons outlined here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tommy Callahan Posted April 21, 2019 Share Posted April 21, 2019 impeachment is a legal preceding. So for what law exactly? reads like she is banking on the ignorance of her base. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So for what law exactly? reads like she is banking on the ignorance of her base. The Mueller report indicated 10 specific instances where Trump's actions may constitute obstruction of justice. This would be what the House Dems would use to impeach Trump. It's a fruitless exercise like the Clinton impeachment was as there's zero chance you'll get 2/3rds of the Senate to vote to throw him out of office. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most of the obstruction allegations can be explained as ignorance about the limitations of the presidency and panicking by Trump. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The popular vote is not the margin of victory in presidential races. How incredible that there are so many people out there that don’t understand how presidential elections work? happy easter! ?

Keukasmallies Posted April 21, 2019 Share Posted April 21, 2019 15 hours ago, Doc Brown said: If you ignore her interactions with Trump and the stupid DNA thing she has a history of fighting for the little guy. She voted Republican in the 90's favoring free markets before recognizing the corruption between the elite political class (Republican and Democrat), Wall Street, corrupt bank executives, etc...that predated the '08 crash and why populists on the left and right gained all this traction recently. I'm fine with her staying in the Senate, but she isn't the ideal candidate to run against Trump. I'm fine with her just keeping her mouth shut. Her manic babble is tiresome in extremis.

SoCal Deek Posted April 21, 2019 Share Posted April 21, 2019 Warren has less than ZERO chance of being the Candidate let alone the President. This is going to sound super un-PC but no one wants an angry old woman running the country. It’s just not going to happen. Next! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Too bad (for her) that as the most qualified person to ever run for the Presidency she didn't understand that the Electoral College is what decides who wins.

row_33 Posted April 21, 2019 Share Posted April 21, 2019 in an accounting firm life, I have known a dozen Hillary's and a dozen Trump models, I would elect the Trump to be a President or managing partner (local and regional) every time and the HIllary to be a due diligence partner or head up the accounts receivable department Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
