I'm not going to watch that disgusting clip, but for those who have, did the host even attempt at stopping that rear end in a top hat from repeatedly smearing the girl?

BigBallChunkyTime posted:Nothing happens unless Nancy is on board. And honestly, short of a coup where they replace her, any impeachment is 100% up to Nancy Pelosi. And so far she's been happy to be complicit. IIRC, any House member can wander up to the podium at any time and offer up a referendum to consider a vote on an Impeachment Proceeding. Whether it proceeds or not depends on politics, of which Pelosi currently plays a major part.

Conservatives only have one setting when it comes to disagreement and that's full on attack, so you had stuff like grown men threatening to spank teenage boys.

Dapper_Swindler posted:depend. i doubt he will get convicted. but i think depending on how much bad poo poo gets dug up and etc. i could see types like collins or romeney stabbing him in the back to either save themselves or look like they did something. Conviction depends on the Senate, of course, and is ATM unlikely. What the House digs up and throws at the press in it's position as prosecutor is something different, and could potentially de-shell the turtle, for example. "It's a mystery."

Yeah really removal is not going to happen, McConnell will just prevent it from ever getting to the Senate (because he is also up to his neck in crimes and graft most likely). But ostensibly the scope of investigations will be increased.

Yeah, this poo poo bugs me a lot too. Her speech that's being passed around today essentially ended with we are going to hold you accountable and I guarantee some of the people clapping are the exact people that she was directing that at. It's super loving condescending.

skylined! posted:Uh giving and accepting anything of value to a foreign entity definitely violates campaign finance law and trump has been campaigning for more than four years. I don't recall Trump promising his own money or his campaign money to Ukraine, though. I thought he was just doing a carrot-and-stick thing with foreign aid to pressure a country into doing what he wants, which is a thing that literally every modern president does, as well as a thing that Biden openly brags about having done to Ukraine. The reason it's a scandal is because the executive exercising its powers in ways intended to directly impact domestic elections is one of those things that America traditionally pretends doesn't happen because it can very easily get into constitutional crisis territory. Getting caught violating that political taboo a bit too openly is a threat to the political order, especially when he's doing it just to target the standard kind of government establishment corruption.

there's basically two lines of republican talking points on this: (1) actually he didn't do anything at all and two totally unrelated events merely coincided https://twitter.com/Acosta/status/1176332068160253952 (2) even if he did it, [blah blah unitary executive absolute authority commander in chief bullshit] trump and co. have already made (1) totally untenable, so expect to see primarily (2) especially from gross right wing lawyer types who are hard just thinking about expanding executive authority
