Useless. Time for the Social Democrats to form their own party.

    are you now on purpose misrepresenting this???

    He said impeachment doesn’t make sense because he didn’t do what they’re accusing him of, and what he actually did is something pretty much every president has done in the past century, and is apparently allowed.

    Doesn’t mean him doing it is morally right, or that he should do it or… Just that this impeachment is just a silly show that will achieve nothing except making everyone taking it seriously look like an idiot…

      This is weirdly phrased since I haven’t spoken about this before, but no I’m not trying to misrepresent anything.

      You and OP are normalizing these sort of operations by saying it’s ok because the previous presidents had done it in the past. Your stand on this topic is vague. It seems like you don’t think these war inciting actions are morally right, but you also don’t think it’s an offense justifiable for impeachment.

        You really need to work on your reading comprehension.

        Acknowledging that something isn’t illegal/impeachable is completely different from normalizing.

        Reality is what it is, whether we agree with it or not. Should it be different? For sure. Is it different? No, and acknowledging that is NOT normalizing it, it’s just saying that the truth is the truth. What is wrong with that?

      Crazy, ain’t it? Lemming really isn’t a bad descriptor for a lot the folks on here. Their brains have fallen out just like the MAGAts.

      Trump should already be in prison for all kinds of shit. That being said, this is obviously political grandstanding and not the hill to die on. It doesn’t matter as it is a non-starter and distracts from the real issues.

      However, gotta get that two minutes hate in. Don’t think, just scream. Don’t be effective in dealing with the far right, just be angry.
