I'm so glad I'm not the only one who had this small heart attack while reading that

[–] 0p3r470r@lemm.ee 17 points 11 months ago

I think a lot of us did this

[–] Macallan@lemmy.world 6 points 11 months ago

That's exactly what my thought process was as well.

[–] tanisnikana@lemmy.world 84 points 11 months ago (9 children)

I don’t support impeachment. I support his demise.

Reading his obituary will be more celebrated by me than my own birthday.

[–] Chozo@fedia.io 37 points 11 months ago (2 children)

I support a third attempt.

[–] captainlezbian@lemmy.world 35 points 11 months ago (2 children)

I would actually prefer an impeachment and removal from office. That would actually be a huge step in unfucking our current situation

it’s ok; he learned his lesson this time

Yeah, and the lesson is “I can get away with literally fucking anything because Congress is run by a bunch of limpdick imbeciles, fascist enablers, and fascists”

Reminder that the U.S. Government does not do what most American voter's want let alone most Americans.

What good would impeachment prove when it’s happened twice before and nothing comes of it

[–] toiletobserver@lemmy.world 17 points 11 months ago (2 children)

This time, Congress could stop blowing the cheeto and have him removed. You know, one of the branches keeping the others in check. I know it ain't likely, but a man can dream.

Blah, blah, blah.

Most people supported the impeaching the fat fascist in his last term too and it went nowhere because Republicans, independents voted the hard R.

And what's different now? Not a damn thing. This will go nowhere outside of calls from the current Democratic leadership mewling pathetically and ineffectively for bipartisanship just like last time.

[–] Reygle@lemmy.world 11 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Hard R

I vote we redefine the popular meaning of this to the way you just used it

[–] inclementimmigrant@lemmy.world 7 points 11 months ago (1 children)

I mean it is the party of the Hard R after all.

Impeach and Remove. See, I've learned impeachment is toothless without that second bit, have to be very specific with expectations.

For a second, i missread the title as third term instead of impeachment and was like "WTF!!!"

[–] Suavevillain@lemmy.world 19 points 11 months ago

I think removal from office would be better. He can do the third term in his own delusional mind.

If we can't impeach him, find a deserted island in the middle of the pacific and beach him

Republicans in the Senate are terrified he’ll wreck their careers. I genuinely don’t know what it would take for him to be removed, besides his MAGAt supporters actually calling to have him out of office (we’re past the point of reason). Though, most are too stupid to know when they’re getting screwed until the bill is served.

[–] FreakinSteve@lemmy.world 12 points 11 months ago (1 children)

This shit will never get fixed until radical fascist media talking heads get dragged into the streets and beaten to a pulp every time they lie through their goddamn traitor teeth about tEh sAtAnIc bAby kIllIng dEmOnCrAts.

Fuck the goddamn First Amendment; if you cant use it responsibly you LOSE IT. These fuckers need to be crushed like the vile, pedophile cockroaches that they are.

Bring back the fair doctrine act that Ronald Reagan got rid of.

Edit: And make it an amendment.

Trump isn't going to give up power willingly. He is openly and gleefully breaking everything with no thought of the consequences. Republicans wouldn't be going along with it unless they think they are untouchable. If they think kidnapping people with no due process and dumping them in concentration camps isn't going to have a consequence, then they are all in. Trusting the rest of their lives on Trump isn't a bet I would take, but I'm just an everyday idiot.

[–] aquinteros@lemmy.world 10 points 11 months ago (2 children)

like he gives a fuck .. and an impeachment is absolutely useless, everyone knows that

[–] DragonTypeWyvern@midwest.social 19 points 11 months ago (5 children)

*impeachment is useless because half of Congress is acting in bad faith
