Furious enough to publicly announce that REPUBLICANS will be kicking off impeachment proceedings with overwhelming support for the conviction of his many, many crimes?
yeah, I didn't think so.
Well, a Republican is kicking off impeachment proceedings this week.
But you may be misunderstanding why they're mad.
Ha! Yeah, they're kicking off the theater alright, I have great doubts that they have the votes to convict him. At the very least there's a chance doing it now means the theater of it won't spill into next year when the Dems take control, but even that feels like a long shot.
“If your team takes a beating as badly as we took this last week, you have to fire people,”
Maybe they should start with firing Trump?
Maybe they should start with firing Trump?
Out of a canon? Into the sun?
It would be easier to fire him out of the solar system than into the sun.
Not the worst idea.
Oh, I’m sure his “grifter” career chip is still firmly implanted
So dumb. They didn't lose because of Trump, they lost because of their support for Trump. Blaming Trump ignores their agency in their actions. The fact that they're angry because they lost, rather than being angry about all the ridiculously stupid things that Trump is doing that have greatly harmed America, tells me all I need to know about them.
That can say all the furious words they want, it they don't back it up with votes then they're still complicit
Actions ALWAYS speak louder than words.
"Ayres said Trump “clearly will remain the leader of the party for the next two years, but I also think the knee-jerk obeisance to whatever his whims are at the moment is likely over.”"
Thanks for saying this out loud. How did that make you feel, by the way?
So they supported a child molester but don't see how they were at fault?
Gee, if only there was some way to have know.
Mad enough to...
