“Could?” Yea “won’t?” More then likely.

[–] BranBucket@lemmy.world 6 points 18 hours ago

So that's where we draw the line?

We wait until he's completely fucked overseas relations, destroyed NATO, and handed the world to China on a silver platter. Then we impeach him and say "Oops, our bad! Who knew he'd be that crazy guys? Boy, do we have egg on our face! We're all gonna laugh about this later, I promise..."

Class act. Five of five stars. Best legislature ever.

What the hell does invade mean! Greenland has 55k people living in it, most in Nuuk. They have no active military, no navy... Nothing. What's going to happen? A group of US troops flies in on commercial and plant a flag?

Jesus. My zip code has more people than Greenland!

[–] JackbyDev@programming.dev 5 points 18 hours ago (1 children)

Y'all should be impeaching him already.

[–] vermyndax@lemmy.world 7 points 17 hours ago

He shouldn't have even been allowed to run.

[–] tumblechinchilla@sh.itjust.works 3 points 17 hours ago

Trump and all his heads of department need to hang for what they've done. If they want to go on a history trip with us we will give them a ride

“They say we could impeach him ✋🤚tremendously 👐. People say a lot of things are impeachable 🍑but this one ☝️is the peachiest. I’m gonna call it a 💯perfect 👌imp🍑ment. “

[–] teawrecks@sopuli.xyz 15 points 1 day ago

Add it to the list.

[–] Ironfist79@lemmy.world 2 points 18 hours ago

And monkeys could fly out of my butt.

[–] JasonDJ@lemmy.zip 35 points 1 day ago

You should've impeached him over Venezuela.

And about 5 more reasons each week since this time last year.

But you don't. And instead you send the message that this is okay, and the American people agree with it.

It's not okay. We do not consent.

[–] newthrowaway20@lemmy.world 119 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (9 children)

Wtf kinda answer is this? Trump already invaded Venezuela, kidnapped the president, and no one did anything. Lindsay Graham couldn't stop drooling over that oil.

Sure you will.

You could now.

But you won't.

Talk talk talk blab blab blab.

[–] Treczoks@lemmy.world 20 points 1 day ago

How about doing this before he breaks up NATO?

[–] 800XL@lemmy.world 4 points 1 day ago

Did you know that the J in Donald J Trump stands for "Jingo"? That's his middle name.

[–] kokesh@lemmy.world 54 points 1 day ago

Could, but wouldn't. The republicans suck sHitler's dick.

[–] adespoton@lemmy.ca 47 points 1 day ago

They could also impeach Trump if U.S. invades Venezuela.

[–] iamthetot@piefed.ca 38 points 1 day ago (1 children)

They could also impeach him for any of the numerous impeachabke offenses he's already done.

[–] logicbomb@lemmy.world 10 points 1 day ago

If there were any justice, they'd impeach and convict Trump for raping a child. And that would be the only thing non-historians would know about him in the future. That he was a pedophile who was removed from office when they learned that he had raped young children in the past.

[–] ThePowerOfGeek@lemmy.world 33 points 1 day ago

They could. But they won't.

[–] GodyGade@lemmy.world 27 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Not sure what impeachment actually does at this point. He's already been impeached twice and I know of no consequences for those.

[–] ShaggySnacks@lemmy.myserv.one 16 points 1 day ago

Trumpie has been impeached twice, convicted several different times, charged with other offences, and more. Yet Trumpie was never truly punished for his behaviour. All this mounted too was some serious finger waving at Trumpie.

[–] AlecSadler@lemmy.dbzer0.com 7 points 1 day ago

Could, but won't.

[–] gravitas_deficiency@sh.itjust.works 16 points 1 day ago (1 children)

If we do end up annexing Greenland, I expect those fully automated motorized goalposts will be moving at great speed before the effort even kicks off.

Bruh stfu that term hasn't carried any weight since he's first impeachment where exactly nothing came of it. Nobody cares.

[–] Janx@piefed.social 7 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

Republican, so... no you fucking won't. You'll make a stern face, while soliciting the racist freaks that are his voter base.

They could! But only after he invades Greenland.

[–] Zexks@lemmy.world 15 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Insert ron burgandy 'i dont believe you' meme

[–] AbidanYre@lemmy.world 15 points 1 day ago

They could, but they won't.

[–] hateisreality@lemmy.world 7 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Bullshit....he's already committed a fucking stream of impeachable offences

[–] axx@slrpnk.net 4 points 1 day ago

Right? Like what about attacking another sovereign country's capital and abducting the head of state?

[–] Etterra@discuss.online 5 points 1 day ago

Just because they can doesn't mean they'll do Jack shit.

[–] FaceDeer@fedia.io 8 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Yeah but they won't

[–] tidderuuf@lemmy.world 11 points 1 day ago

Of course Republicans will impeach after U.S. invades Greenland. Because we will be in the middle of a war with NATO and Putin will just swipe in to take over whatever's left standing.

The GOP really are useful idiots.

[–] thesohoriots@lemmy.world 10 points 1 day ago

Why wait? Why not be proactive about grandpa’s threats?

[–] homesweethomeMrL@lemmy.world 9 points 1 day ago
[–] worhui@lemmy.world 8 points 1 day ago

Or you know make it so the military knows he needs to ask congress first. NOT wait for him to attack another nation and avoid the position.

[–] crazycraw@crazypeople.online 7 points 1 day ago (1 children)

omg and a dove might land on my balls forcing me to write a strongly worded letter to someone who gives two shits.

seriously ?! this bullshit "oh yeah well we'll 'hurt you with processes that didn't hurt you before when we did these processes twice."

these brain dead totally dependent system suckers are the other part of the problem.

Wish in one hand....
