There are some things where getting 1 out of 2 is really good. Things such as hitting a baseball, or shooting a 3 pointer. There are other things where 1 out of 2 is bad. Things such as completion percentage for a spread QB, or "Presidential" approval numbers.

Tell that to the chucklefuck in the White House who repeatedly "jokingly" mentions he will stay President past 8 years. In reality, he's shifting the Overton window, bringing up something that should be repugnant to everyone and normalizing the idea. The Constitution is only a piece of paper. That piece of paper requires human beings to enforce it.

He's waiting for his subpoena.

Trump isn't draining the swamp, but he has installed so many more gators, they have displaced all the water.

Yeah, but you'll have advance warning. Organize some volunteers and rake the forests around you. You'll be fine.

How's that not a horse collar?

Team Sinkhole

Those of you that are all happy for Mack need to remember what he thinks of you. He's a two-faced, petty, lazy, grudgefucking, control freak succubus. The only reason he has a burr up his ass right now, and is temporarily doing his job, is try to show that Texas made a mistake in firing him. He's deeply insecure and decided to burn it all down on his way out the door here, rather than have his successor have any of the toys to play with, so they didn't show him up for the lazy POS he was.

More "mass shootings" to follow.

Coincidentally, 15 is also her IQ.

False again. As I clearly said in my second sentence, I saw it, but gave you the benefit of the doubt that you weren't understanding the nuance of their positions. Shockingly, you aren't such an aggressive dick about the importance of reading comprehension when it applies to you.

Yeah, I saw it and understood what it would mean if most people used it, but it seemed incongruous with how butt hurt you were acting about it. I was just trying to establish exactly what it is that you are so butt hurt about and giving you the courtesy of assuming you weren't catching the nuance of their positions. Turns out you fully understand that both of them think there is almost no chance McConnell won't remove Trump, but you are choosing to act like a troll while being confrontational and butt hurt about the fact that each of them concedes there is a small chance that we don't know what will happen if all the facts come out and slap Americans in the face all at once. Good thing you decided to show up last Wednesday and appoint yourself the arbiter of what we should be talking about on this thread and what the issues for 2020 we should have been discussing are. I don't know what we've been doing all this time without you.

False. Neither Dixon or Hugo actually expect a McConnell led Senate to remove Trump, none of us do. That argument has been rehashed here for years now. They think there is a chance. There's a chance for everything, even if it is an infinitesimally small chance. The GOP turned on Nixon and his support was about Trump's level when the hearings started and 27% when he was removed. Trump's crimes are astronomically worse than Nixon's. The GOP is filled with spineless cowards. If they finally realize Trump is going to drown them, they might jettison him. I will add though, that I personally think the chance is so small that it realistically approaches zero. It's irrelevant however, Dems need to stop acting according to what they think the GOP and Fox will do or say, they are going to do it anyway. Just do the right thing and be very open about why. It's a shit leader who only follows where the rest of the herd goes first. You are also incorrect when you restated what you think my position is. Impeaching Trump and airing all of his dirty laundry on TV at once, rather than dribbled out in small bits that can be ignored, probably hits him hard in the next election. That notwithstanding, my position is that impeaching Trump and forcing the McConnell led Senate to own Trump's malfeasance by refusing to remove a crooked felon is both, the right thing to do, and will help the Democrats retake the Senate, which is the second most important part of the 2020 election.

Literally, not a single person on here is saying this, except you. You would know this if you'd ever bothered to participate in the CR before suddenly deciding last Wednesday that you have very strong ignorant opinions you want to hijack this thread with and then posting 21 consecutive posts, all on this thread, attempting to do that. The rest of us know full well that McConnell isn't removing Trump, even if Trump raped Elaine Chao on live TV while calling Mitch a Turtle Cuck Bitch. Notwithstanding that fact, we live in a world where perception matters and perception very much matters for the 2020 election. If the Dems don't impeach, perception will be that Trump has done nothing wrong, when the reality is that he has committed a minimum of dozens of impeachable offenses. Own the messaging that McConnell is a Turtle Cuck Bitch who wipes his ass with the Constitution. Expose everything Trump has done and make the GOP wear Trump like a millstone around their necks going into the election.

Democrats need to stop worrying what Fox and Republicans are going to say. They are going to say the same shit, no matter what Dems do. Acting like perpetual cowards plays right into their hands. Stop worrying about it and fucking lead. Show Americans that the GOP has been dealing in bad faith and lies for decades. Do things because they are the right thing to do. Loudly defend that you are doing it because it is the right thing and you will not be held back by Republican lies and greed any longer. This prevent defense shit is a failed strategy that has led to innumerable self-inflicted losses. The best way to make sure you win a game where you are up by 10 is to score 14 more and then keep scoring until the clock expires.

Shrieking and throwing their feces at the screen whenever Shep Smith comes on doesn't count as intelligent engagement.

Not much different than the past GOP president. Only difference, Trump started a stupid, elective economic war we can't win that will take decades to dig out of, rather than a stupid, elective shooting war we can't win that has and will take decades to dig out of. Still plenty of time for him to start a shooting war with Iran though, so maybe he'll get to do both before Nancy finally decides it's a priority to impeach the stupid motherfucker.

It's an 18 minute video, I get it if you don't want to watch it, but don't comment on a video you didn't watch and show your ignorance. The video clearly shows Patriot Prayer members planning and preparing for a violent assault on people drinking on a patio at a bar. It shows them in helmets, with extendable batons and respirators. It shows at least one of the guys wearing gloves with plates over the knuckles. It shows people talking about using pepper spray and trying to determine which way the wind was blowing in advance of their assault. It shows them traveling to the bar, then initiating and instigating a fight. It shows that the people they attacked It shows Andy Ngo was there for all of it and was aware of that they had brought weapons, aware of what they were planning and aware that they intended to initiate violence. He did not notify police that Patriot Prayer group was armed and planning to assault people. He neglected to mention any of it in his "reporting". Instead, he blamed the entire altercation on antifa.

I don't think he intended to win either. He wanted to lose and parlay that into a massive grifter scheme with a Trump TV network that would outflank Fox to the right. That's what makes it especially stupid that Fox gave him such a huge platform. In fact, the only thing that really makes sense there is that it was Roger Ailes' idea. Ailes feared he was losing control of the network to Lachlan and James Murdoch, so he likely decided to fuck them by outflanking Fox with even more bombastic personalities, just like he did to NBC when he was fired for sexual harassment.

He didn't. He told GOP Congressmen. Barrasso from Wyoming, Thune from South Dakota and Purdue from Georgia. They are the stupid ones telling others, but in those states it is THEIR base demanding they cut those things from all the socialists and welfare queens abusing it. Surely they don't mean they would cut it for their own hard working constituents. The leopards eating faces party would never eat THEIR faces.

It's not really that complicated. 1) Short stock 2) Say crazy shit to tank markey 3) Cash in 4) Repeat steps 1-3 Even if it was, people need to stop underestimating him. He was smart enough to pull off first becoming the GOP nominee and then winning the Presidency. He was smart enough to turn the GOP base against the FBI, the CIA and Robert Mueller, who was faultless in the eyes of the bulk of the GOP until that time. He was smart enough to turn the GOP from generations of Russia hate into a bunch of Russian cock suckers. He's plenty smart enough to run a pump and dump scheme, while using and manipulating gullible people. He's been doing it his entire life.

If you are asking this question, you aren't paying attention. If he wins in 2020, there isn't going to be another election, at least not one any of us would recognize. Thg GOP would lose in 2024, strictly due to demographic changes anyway. This is their last gasp and they are going all in.
