Here’s the twisted view
She’s doing the setup for Pence to resign, DJT to appoint her VP, Trump to resign/ make deal, she to pardon him. It’s gonna play that way. Too little too late, Nikki.

earlier you were saying she was criticizing trump, now you’re saying she’s trying to get him to make her the VP?
i have news for you, trump is not resigning, not based on what we know right now. He’s going to be the candidate. take off your tin foil
hat, put down the kool
aid, and take a nice, deep breath. Trump may lose the election, but based on what we know right now, he is going to be the candidate, and Pence is likely to be the VP.

"Here’s the twisted view"
Of course, he has a transcript so exonerating it had to be edited.
Perfect conversation.......
More and more people will testify, then....
A few weeks of public hearings and the Draftdodger in chief will have called everyone in DC names on either side of the aisle.
Republicans are looking for the point when they can ship him out of DC and claim the high ground for doing so.
Notice the Senators other than the Trump mouthpieces are saying they don't want to comment since they will be jurors...gotta keep those options open.
Meanwhile he's sending Wilber Ross to sleep thru the East Asian Summit and U.S.-ASEAN Summit after pulling out of the TPP and leaving partners looking for stable trade deals, China is happy.
And in Africa, those #^&#^&#^&#^&hole countries, Putin hosted 40 countries in Sochi last week, has signed military agreements with half and has increased it's trade with Africa by almost 20% each year Trump has been in office.
His dream of signing a trade deal in Chile evaporated when they canceled the meeting.
Keep believing in the Stable Genius

if you think the gop wants him out, you’re clueless. he annihilated hilary, and is obviously their best shot at retaining the white house.
the american people
don’t want us making military commitments all over the world. that’s one reason why he won.
you criticize him when he fails to fulfill campaign promises ( the wall), and you criticize him when he exactly follows through on promises ( bringing troops home).
the gop leadership is also beyond thrilled with the judges he’s appointing. they aren't looking to show him the door.
id love to know where you get your news from.
you think more than 2-3 gop
senators will vote to convict, based on what we know right now? really?

I heard democrat debbie dingbat state that they were not voting on impeachment today but they were voting to follow the facts...she also insisted that all of the testimony to date has been conducted in a classified setting....
these people are laughable....

You must be kidding, Trump doesn't lie, if he says it's word for word it's the truth.

A few facts to keep handy in the face of intellectually dishonest GOP arguments today.
1. Impeachment of a President is not the process of undoing a previous election. It is the process whereby Congress indicts a President for wrongdoing while in office.
2. Though a quid pro quo is obvious, none is needed.
The drafters of the impeachment clause said so.
Madison was worried about the perfidy of a President, or deceit. He worried a President would wrongly work with a foreign power.
Edmund Randolph was concerned a President would seek to profit from the office, would seek emoluments from the presidency.
George Mason was concerned a President would undermine an investigation into himself, or might interfere with the work and duty of electors.
3. The whistleblower testimony is not needed.
Trump confessed to impeachable activity through release of the call notes.
Mulvaney corroborated it with his presser.
Bill Taylor confirmed it factually.
Lt. Col. Vindman contextualized it all as undermining US national security.
Eisenberg hid the transcript in an ultra secure server, showing consciousness of guilt, obstructing justice and abusing power.

And clinton got a blow job and lied under oath. This outraged Republicans
Yet Trumps behavior the use of executive privilege the refusal of congressional subpoenas by his people . The list is endless..
Why doesn't it bother his supporter that Trump wont go under oath.
Simple.. party of country .. the next evolution in Trumps party..

Save all that and print it out and wave it at the TV on January 20th, 2021 as you watch Trump's second inauguration.

You can’t truly call yourself “peaceful” unless you are capable of great violence.
If you are incapable of violence, you are not peaceful, you are just harmless.

Morrison noted that his predecessor, former national security official Fiona Hill, had told him that Sondland and the president’s personal lawyer Rudy Giuliani "were trying to get President Zelensky to reopen a Ukrainian investigation into Burisma.” Morrison went on to say that “At the time, I did not know what Burisma was or what the investigation entailed.”
“I did not understand why Ambassador Sondland would be involved in Ukraine policy,” he added.

Devin Nunes calling the Intelligence Committee’s fact-finding mission a cult is despicable. I know about cults. Cults are led by maniacal narcissists who expect complete adoration and relinquishment of independent thought. I suggest Mr. Nunes look elsewhere.
10:21 AM · Oct 31, 2019·Twitter for iPhone
In 1978, Speier was shot five times as a congressional staffer trying to save people from the cult at Jonestown. She survived after being left for dead on airstrip for 22 hours. Speier almost never talks about the experience, so this is a real rebuke of Nunes.
Perhaps you can think of another maniacal narcissist

Trump cared about corruption in Ukraine like Bonnie & Clyde cared about the FDIC - as a source of financial opportunity. His jailed funders were working with his attorney to replace the directors of the state gas company with themselves.
Trump didn’t see Ukraine as the one country he would push to become less corrupt. Instead, he saw it as a weak, dependent country he could leverage for his own self-interest, political and financial.

Asking for quid pro quo is illegal. Collision is illegal
Hiring a hitman illegal
Yelling fire in a theater illegal
No of these crimes require completion to be found guilty of a crime
Unless your a Republican the laws meaning and intent magically change.
To it was not completed so there can be no quid pro quo..
Yet if your name is Biden your guilty of corruption with no evidence no due process . All in attempt to deflect Trumps behavior a destroy any one who stands against him to include a decorated veteran Who just confirmed what we already know.
Republicans demanding there left out of the proceedings. when they are in the room , claim its unfair as it follows past hearings .. Just shows their willingness to lie present alternative facts so as not to upset the Dear leader and his worshipers
