Newbie to this Posted December 18, 2019 Author Report Share Posted December 18, 2019 I spoke too soon there is one more vote I think. But he is likley to lose it, as the Democrats hold the majority. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GingerCat Posted December 18, 2019 Report Share Posted December 18, 2019 I'm pretty sure the democrats want him to get a 2nd term. They are doing all they can to galvanize his support base and make themselves look like a bunch of sore losers. They'll be asking for a "people's vote" soon.

This, from what I can gather watching some interviews with Americans on the street, just about sums it up. Nearly all said why are they wasting Tax payer's money on this circus show, or words to that effect. They know that if it passes and moves up to the Senate for trial (or whatever they call it), that he will be found innocent. Waste of money, time and effort was the general consensus.

figgy Posted December 19, 2019 Report Share Posted December 19, 2019 Blair should be dropped in the middle East and left alone to walk home. He makes fine but don't think he would get far. Brown can be his guide and sole companion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pelosi knew that would be the case before the start. I watched the impeachment debate last night and all I can say is I was so disappointed in the quality of debate, from both sides. I can't see this improving Congress' relationship with the wider public much, but I think it was worth doing anyway, although I think the founding fathers would be appalled at how partisan the whole shootin' match has become Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Retsdon Posted December 19, 2019 Report Share Posted December 19, 2019 Western democracy has no God given right to exist in perpetuity. And it's becoming increasingly obvious that the end is nigh. Maybe the end is not within the next couple of electoral terms, (on either side of the Atlantic) but people who make up the thinking electorate (those who switch their votes and consequently choose the government) ) are becomingly increasingly disillusioned with the whole process. And when these people eventually stop turning out to vote you're just left with the mindless tribal warfare. But maybe that's just how it works. As the man said, nations get the governments they deserve. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The first time that none of the impeached individual's political party voted for his impeachment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
