If the President wants to refuse negotiations and pout, then by all means let him do it.

If he doesn't want to pass an infrastructure-bill, then just don't!

If he doesn't want to pass a budget, then just don't!

If he doesn't want to raise the debt-ceiling, then just don't!

It's his administration, his responsibility. 2020 is coming and he's getting nothing done.

However I am getting tired of hearing all the "CRAP" that impeachment now solving all the problems we face, and that's just plain BS!

Impeachment will NOT get rid of trump, because the senate will NOT find him guilty, so that means he will become a "VICTIM" another witch hunt, and will be able to claim, since the attempt failed, he has been proven "INNOCENT" once again.

A failed attempt will NOT stop him from doing the same things he has been doing, refusing to cooperate, and it will NOT STOP HIM from starting a war with Iran, in fact it might just make those odds even worse.

Thanks for replying. You don't know my pain. Sorry if I'm not as comfortable as you. I speak for a good slice of America my friend.
(PS> I do know about global warming. And I DO know about my life. Sorry if that blows you up. Stay tuned, Hurricanes already in the Atlantic. An ships are at sea.)

Sounds an awful lot to me like..."I read a lot of stuff here, and hold my tounge...but...THIS needs to be addressed."
I honestly don't care to discuss it anymore, if that's fine w you. You don't see it from my eyes, and that's ok. However, posts like that always seem to reveal a particular phenomenon on Du, "I'll shut this poster up" ism, and that evolves into another day, in another month, in another year, THIS Democrat has to wait for justice. I didn't vote for that.
PS..Please block my 'dreary self'. I'll do the same for you. That way you can riff all you want, and really not worry about the pain of another democrat who dares disagree, replying.
Be well.

Give him enough rope and he will hang himself, and Pelosi is giving him all the rope he needs. She knows what she is doing, contrary to all those here who say otherwise. She has been at this for a long time, and knows more about how to handle this than all the nay sayers here on DU put together.

Interesting, and THAT sounds like a judgement from someone who has no clue how a LOT of America really feels i guess.
I guess Eliz Wareen, and Kamala harris and others (Raskin, Ciclillini, etc etc.) are just naysayers too? I know, just one grumbly person ruining your day here I guess. Sorry about that.

I have a clue about what is going on, and I don't like it. I do think trump needs to go, but helping him become the "victim" again won't help get rid of him. Sorry if my view is bothering you.
