ReidRansom posted:The American people kinda ARE stupid, but they're still not so stupid as to not see the power dynamic difference there and the under the fear of reprisal claim that nothing was hinky. Ukraine should be treated as an abuse victim and have their protestations that no everything was actually OK be kinda ignored. this. unlike russia, this whole scandal/crimes are much easier to follow and go directly to trump. it also doesn't help trump is that trumps whole system is full of monsters who will save themselves over trump.

Gnumonic posted:I spent a few hours trying to figure out exactly how the senate trial will work, and I think how it will go is: The Chief Justice gets to act like a trial judge would in most respects, except that he can be overruled by a majority of the senate. So how much of a shitshow this is comes down to, uh, Mitt Romney, Susan Collins, Lisa Murkowski, and a few retiring GOP senators. i feel like its a mix of 3. i feel like it will be a circus but it will go very badly for them and they will try to get trump to resign, trump won't and they will either feel forced to remove him out of desperation or more likely they will aquit him by some margin. than they are possibly hosed harder in November 2020 as is trump.

actionjackson posted:I think that Trump and the right will actually just peddle more and more conspiracy theories that people are out to get them, and put the impeachment forth as "evidence." They will hope that's enough to keep their base and get another EC victory in 2020. i think the issue with that is outside the chud base, its way too complex to understand. unlike the crimes that did happen that are easier to summarize. the hardline maga chuds arnt a big enough group to save trump or the GOP anymore. trumps a very well known factor now and is widely hated/disliked.

Deteriorata posted:I think the strategy is that if the Republicans are determined to acquit him, it doesn't matter how much evidence they gather so it's not worth spending extra time on it. They have enough to convince anybody that can be convinced of his guilt. its like i feel like the GOP is hosed either way. eithr they throw trump under the bus for the country and some lose the primaries or they gently caress everyone over and transparently let him walk and aquite, than they get crushed in 2020.

exquisite tea posted:I wish that I could have your optimism. I think Congressional Republicans are going to stick with Trump no matter what and rely upon, among other things, unprecedented amounts of SuperPAC money, their in-built advantages of the electoral college and state-level gerrymandering, and a potentially unpopular Democratic candidate to try holding in 2020. The fact that our president openly and proudly commits crimes in broad daylight is 100% cool with his supporters, in fact it's probably a plus for them. The GOP doesn't have to hold all houses of government or even win any, all that's needed to stop a progressive Democratic agenda is for them to fight close enough to make passing legislation extremely difficult. The overwhelming amounts of dark money that flowed into RNC congressional races in the month before the 2016 election should be the precedent for what their strategy will be here. As much as I'd like to believe that Trump will get annihilated in 2020 there's too much time between now and next November for the American public to even remember the specifics of impeachment. Much like the same way Trump killed DACA, or the Paris climate accords, or implemented travel bans on Muslim nations, or defended nazi rallies, or fired the FBI Director, or tried to ban transgender people from joining the military, or promoted a rapist to the Supreme Court. Fifty years or so ago when this administration began those actions might have caused a stir, but if you were to poll Republicans about all those things now they would say "actually I'm 100% okay with nazis." Such as it will be re: impeachment one year from now. i dont think the GOP will vanish or the dems will get magically better(they can but thats a different thread) i am just saying in the short term the GOP is between a rock and hard place and the Hardline chuds, the ones that cheer for every awful act are a minority and one they can solely rely on for a 2020 win. also all trump does is gently caress up and act like dumb prick, he has never done any good or noble actions and won't do any to win more people outside the chud sphere. I don't know why both USpol and now this thread go into deep states of melancholy at the drop of hat.

FilthyImp posted:The knowledge that slightly less than half of the dicks that dragged themselves to vote in 2016 saw a racist, doddering old sack of new money poo poo that wrapped himself in gold foil and empty promises and thought "yep, that's the guy!" is pretty depressing and some of them probably hate him now, not for reasons we would agree with, but possibly enough that they will stay home. alot of those photos from his rallies show half empty stadiums with bored or sleeping chuds because trump doesnt get them upped anymore. he is just crying and bitching about the same 10 topics and than he blue balls them every time.

exquisite tea posted:I don't want my skepticism to be misrepresented as Nothing Matters nihilism. I do think it's possible for things to get better, at least at the local level, and some regional progress has already been made. But I also think repeatedly hoping against hope that some new revelation will finally be the thing that sinks Trump's chances for re-election is naive if not somewhat ignorant to the deeper political underpinnings that got him elected in the first place. Trump voters know he's corrupt, they know he's a racist and a compulsive liar and all the bad things people say about him. They just don't give a poo poo. The best thing you can hope for is that enough of his base will sit out 2020 either out of disenchantment or embarrassment, but if 2018 and 2019's recent elections were anything to go by, he seems to draw out the opposition AND the base. sorry, i wasn't trying to imply you were nothing matters, i more mean in general, also i dont think some new leak will destroy him, its more i think its just more and more nails in the coffin that don't help him any, their is no magic bullet and at the end of the day, trump is a symptom. nice. he is smart enough to know he is in deeper poo poo out and out denying it than just not answering.

skeleton warrior posted:There’s a weird belief that everyone at heart is actually 100% leftist, and only if we forced people to hear the right arguments then they’d suddenly remove the scales from their eyes and we’d get Full Gay Space Communism now. i think millenials are probably pretty progressive for the most part. like like one of my best friend who is pretty non political is a sanders or warren or bust dude because he works as a nurse and is also pretty progressive in general. i think what we will see is the "non political" types shift from quiet conservatives/centrists to some sort of progressive. but like i said in here and other threads, i think the silent majority dislikes/hates trump though not because they are secret progressives but because he is a loud embarrassing rear end in a top hat who pushes politics into their daily lives and the various blue waves in the country keep showing that. will they last beyond 2020, hopefully but idk and thats for another thread to scream about. personally i doubt we will see some great socialist state in america during out lifetimes, more likely, we will hopefully become like other advanced countries and make essential rights actual loving rights like healthcare and such. hopefully better in the future though.
