*Laugh* You've really drunk the Left-wing cool-aid.
"Dictator"? Everything Trump has done as President has been legal. Only the
Left says otherwise - even though Osama...er.. Obama did many of the same
things, without complaint from the Dems.
All I hear from you is "Trump isn't acting the way that we like, so he's
evil.", and "Trump won't cede power to the Left-wing minority, so he's doing
illegal things."
LL> And now Donald J. Trump has been impeached. Impeached forever.
LL> A permanent stain on not just his presidency, but his person.
*Laugh* This is one of the Leftie tactics that no longer work.
For ages, the Left have been using accusations as a lever to get people to do
things. "Now be good, or we'll accuse you of something bad. It doesn't make
any difference whether or not you actually did it because just the accusation
will ruin you." Well, thanks to the MeToo movement and others, that no longer
works.
LL> The Rule of law? Do you honestly think the Republican majority

Yes, I do. But I know that the Dems don't. They haven't for a long time now.
LL> What we have today is a sham trial.
Which would make a nice addition to the sham impeachment.
LL> The Rule of Law. A nice thought, but wishful thinking when it
LL> comes to trial by the Senate to convict/remove a president from
LL> office.
Yes, The Rule Of Law. Not Rule of Accusation. Prove it or shut up. But the
Dems can't prove something that isn't true and they are going out of the minds.
LL> The US Constitution gives the Senate "sole responsibility" to
LL> conduct the trial. On its own terms/rules, whatever those terms/rules
LL> might be.
Yup. It's called "Checks and Balances". It's a really nice system for
preventing one group of people (like the Left) from seizing power.
LL> The Senate rules for the trial are whatever they want them to be.
And the House rules for the impeachment are whatever they wanted them to be.
So?
LL> Republicans have a majority in the Senate. They can subpoena
LL> the Bidens even without having to put their beloved president on

LL> MF'er first.
Which is why the Dems are going crazy now. They need to keep the Bidens off
the witness stand.
