My rep is Cicilline and he's been pro impeachment for a while, so I'm happy with him.

Doctor Spaceman posted:It's not that it's worse, it's that the Dems are more mobilised than they've been previously and it's far more straightforward (both in terms of what he did and what evidence there is) than the Mueller / Russia stuff. Another huge factor is that he 100% doesn't understand what the problem is and in Jr. like fashion is admitting to the crime on TV and publishing damning documents that he thinks clears him of wrong doing. At least he kind of understood the charges of Russian collusion and thus could defend against them somewhat effectively. He clearly doesn't get what this impeachment is really about.

Lote posted:Dying throes of the Deep State, most likely. But over half a dozen officials from as late as May-July were talking to the whistle blower. That means that people that have stuck with him for three years or people have recently joined despite being aware of how bad he was, still thought his behavior was beyond the pale. It seems like something as simple as packing his staff with true believers is beyond Trump.

Paradoxish posted:85% of Republicans being against impeachment is a pretty clear message for them not to remove, though. Polls like this aren't promising if the goal is actually removal, although it's at least a bit heartening that Republican support isn't totally static. Was this poll done before, after or during the release of the transcript?

Rigel posted:I see this a lot, but this is not true either. There might be 30-35 GOP votes in the Senate to throw Trump out if and only if the vote were both secret and if a magic spell were cast preventing anyone from claiming they voted no. As long as like ten vote aquit they can claim I was one of the loyal ten later, while gleefully voting to convict now. Charlz Guybon fucked around with this message at 09:34 on Sep 27, 2019 |

Cable Guy posted:This is all hypothetical though isn't it...? Would a verdict vote even be a secret ballot? What's the precedent? Is it up to the turtle? If so, does he think his interests are divested enough from donny's to allow a secret ballot? I think even 4 GOP senators who wanted to could ram it through with the Dems. That would be a public vote though.

It just makes things look worse and there's not much he can't do via phone calls that he can do being physically in Washington. You tell him something and hang up, and he's already listening to the guy next to him and forgot about you.

RuanGacho posted:If true, it could send shock waves through this whole thing if Donny thinks the Turtle is betraying him. I mean, I'm sure Mitch assumed he would release a transcript edited to make him look good, but Trump could easily end up blaming him for it. After all, who else is he going to blame? Himself?

I think this could definitely get interesting. Coats out and out hated Trump for a long time and it was amazing he managed to hang on to his position for a long time.

Lightning Knight posted:Why would Republicans care about polls that don’t show splitting of the Republican base, 2/3rds is about the right amount to reflect people who are and aren’t Republicans overall and Republicans have routinely done deeply unpopular things so long as they still have base support. Eh, a big enough wave could see them lose another 20-30 house seats on top of the 40 they lost in 2018 as well as half a dozen senate seats. They'd kind of prefer that not to happen.
