The Washington Post seems surprised by this state of affairs. They apparently expected Republicans to abandon Trump, just like Democrats abandoned Bill Clinton when he was impeached with actual evidence of perjury, witness tampering, and suborning testimony, unlike what Democrats are saying Trump did, which is essentially ignoring unhinged Democrats in Congress and being mean to them
Trump appears resilient as he faces the ‘very ugly word’ of impeachment
Poised to become on Wednesday only the third president in U.S. history to be impeached, President Trump remains remarkably resilient, wounded but not fatally so as he turns toward his 2020 reelection campaign.
Unbowed and unapologetic, Trump is charging through impeachment much as he has wrestled with previous crises in his presidency — attacking his perceived enemies, spinning falsehoods, promising vengeance and firing off tweets, all while cycling between fits of indignation and bouts of confidence and good cheer.
In a fiery and freewheeling six-page letter to House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) on Tuesday, Trump demonstrated what allies describe as fortitude and critics deride as mania, railing against “an illegal, partisan attempted coup†and a “perversion of justice and abuse of power†at the hands of Democrats.
“You have cheapened the importance of the very ugly word, impeachment!†he wrote.
Trump’s ability to exist — and even thrive — amid historic tumult has worried Democrats, who have sought to portray themselves as pursuing somber impeachment proceedings rooted more in duty to the Constitution than partisan politics. Yet that same reality has left many supporters and allies of the president buoyed.
“We’ll just wake up Thursday after this absurd impeachment vote and say, ‘Well, that was quite a Season 3 finale. What’s going to happen in Season 4?’†said Cliff Sims, a former White House aide. “He’s the most resilient politician the country has ever seen.â€
Democrats aren’t moving the polls against Trump. It’s primarily a partisan thing. It’s all political. And we know it is just based on Trumo Derangement Syndrome because
Impeachment Forever: House Vows to Continue Probes No Matter What Senate Decides
House Democrats vow to continue the fight to impeach and remove U.S. President Donald Trump, even after the House vote and the Senate trial, a top House lawyer indicated Monday.
No matter what the U.S. Senate does–and it is expected to clear President Trump early next year after the House votes on Wednesday to impeach him–the House is likely to continue its quest to remove the president from office.
Politico reported:
Lawyers for the House told a federal court on Monday that lawmakers will continue their impeachment investigation even after the House votes later this week to impeach President Donald Trump.
In a filing to the D.C. Circuit Court of Appeals, House General Counsel Douglas Letter argued that the House’s demands for grand jury materials connected to former special counsel Robert Mueller’s investigation were still urgent because such evidence might become relevant to the Senate’s expected impeachment trial next month.
But Letter went further to note that even apart from the Senate trial, the House Judiciary Committee intends to continue its impeachment investigation arising from the Mueller probe on its own merit. That investigation began earlier this year.
They can’t accept that Trump beat Hillary, and can’t accept that Trump is in office, and if you think the meltdowns when George Bush won re-election in 2004 were bad, just wait till Trump wins in 2020.
Oh, and the meltdowns later today when the moonbat base realizes that the House voting for impeachment on a party line doesn’t mean Trump is booted out of office.
They also thought we’d be hurt to our very marrow when the Hildabeast placed us in the Basket of Deplorables.
Teach how about posting the results of the most recent Military Times poll on your trumpet
Among active duty personnel 50% disapprove of job performance 43% approve
Or the recent Fox News poll ?
Fox poll is, was, and always will be a joke.
As for military Times, sounds like they asked a lot of Marines.
If you read the MT article, they’re kind of fuzzy about methodology.
You might also want to take a look at the comments. They think the piece is a crock, too.
Trump attempted to use a foreign power to aid him in the 2020 election, trading US aid for electoral help. Trump has refused to cooperate with the investigation.
Clinton lied under oath about having sex with an intern. Of what crimes was Clinton convicted?
Why wouldn’t Trump testify under oath?
Back then, the GOPhers, suffering from a bad case of Clinton Derangement Syndrome (CDS), just couldn’t get over that the vile Clinton beat Sen Bob Dole so they tried for years to reverse the election, and started investigating Mr. and Mrs. Clinton shortly after Clinton assumed office in 1993 and continued until his acquittal of all counts in 1999. The GOPhers kept investigating for nearly 5 years.
It was exclusively a partisan thing driven by unhinged GOPhers who thought they had a divine right to the presidency.
Clinton was acquitted by the Senate. His law license in AR was suspended for 5 yr, but that was not a criminal case, any more than Trump paying $25 million for swindling students or $3.7 million for swindling charities.
So Clinton was never convicted of a crime.
The problem was he (Clinton) could never stay out of trouble (Travelgate, bimbo eruptions), and it just mounted up
It’s fascinating the lack of self awareness of Trump supporters. Has Trump had any troubles in office (or before)? (Bimbo eruption, emoluments violations, lying, corruption (several associates in prison), hush payments, nepotism, swindling students, swindling charities, hypocrisy of hiring undocumented workers, awful tweets).
Where was the lie?
Jeff,
Great collection of lies, half truths, misunderstanding, ignorance , and stupidity. Keep showing us how ridiculous liberals are. You realize your constant lying makes it difficult for the less informed to believe in your climate religion.
He’s just trying to muddy the waters, the way Fake News did by bringing up the political slander that Thomas Jefferson fathered a baby by Sally Hemmings.
The Lefties are running dry when they have to resort to the “Well look at what he did” dodge.
Truth is, even a few Demos are starting to raise a few red flags that this impeachment obsession is going to cost the Demos dear. Trump is liked and will do very well next year.
The Demos are going to get creamed and see one of their worst drubbings ever.
You heard it here first.
Last I looked, perjury was a felony. One of those high crimes and misdemeanors of which you know so little.
You asked of what crimes was he convicted, I told you.
Has Trump had any troubles in office (or before)? (Bimbo eruption, emoluments violations, lying, corruption (several associates in prison), hush payments, nepotism, swindling students, swindling charities, hypocrisy of hiring undocumented workers, awful tweets).
We’ve all had troubles, but Trump has not committed any felonies or misdemeanors.
Swindling is a felony, but I don’t recall anyone bringing charges in court. He also hasn’t hired any illegals.
And awful tweets are a subjective thing, not a crime, and merely whining on your part. Neither are hush payments, that just makes him a victim of extortion, but the word of a convicted felon isn’t going to go far in a court of law.
Where was the lie?
I just enumerated several, but anything you say qualifies.
Clinton was not convicted of perjury.
You have no idea whether Trump has committed any felonies or misdemeanors.
Why did he pay out $25 million as a result of his fake Trump University, where he was accused of defrauding over 5000 students?
His hush payments sent his attorney to prison.
Trump attempted to use a foreign power to aid him in the 2020 election, trading US aid for electoral help. Trump has refused to cooperate with the investigation
Why co-operate for a non-existent crime?
Clinton lied under oath about having sex with an intern. Of what crimes was Clinton convicted?
Perjury. He lost his law license.
Back then, the GOPhers, suffering from a bad case of Clinton Derangement Syndrome (CDS), just couldn’t get over that the vile Clinton beat Sen Bob Dole so they tried for years to reverse the election, and started investigating Mr. and Mrs. Clinton shortly after Clinton assumed office in 1993 and continued until his acquittal of all counts in 1999. The GOPhers kept investigating for nearly 5 years.
Lie. One of the more palpable. The problem was he could never stay out of trouble (Travelgate, bimbo eruptions), and it just mounted up.
It was exclusively a partisan thing driven by unhinged GOPhers who thought they had a divine right to the presidency.
Suuuure. That’s why you belch on forever about the popular vote.
PS Pelosi is about to end her Congressional career doing the same thing that cost her the speakership the first time.
Remember IdiotCare, which nobody liked and nobody wanted? Well, she’s done it again, given the country something they don’t want and don’t like.
My guess is it will be years before the demos recover from this little bit of idiocy.
