can we please impeach him again?

[unblock]

no need to spend precious time actually holding hearings.

just send the same charges up again, along with this note:

"dear senate republicans,

are you *sure*?

sincerely,
america"

1. Probably wouldn't survive a 5th Amendment challenge, but good idea...

2. impeachment isn't a criminal charge, there's no such thing as double jeopardy

doesn't much matter anyway. *any* way republicans defend donnie is bad for them.

3. If your asking for a vote i say

FUCK YES!!!!!

[central scrutinizer]

4. No!

Rebukes would like nothing better - “look at the Democrats, playing politics instead of dealing with the pandemic.” The optics would be terrible.

5. i think not holding hearings helps immensely.

we can accompany it with a statement saying we're deliberately not adding new charges or holding new hearings precisely because of the important work at hand. in fact, we can send up the charges on the same day as we send up the next stimulus bill.

note also, that donnie and the republicans are already playing politics with it.

we have to say, hey, this is the last guy america should want to be in charge our pandemic defense.

7. All true, but

Anything that adds to the narrative, “both sides are playing politics” helps the pukes by keeping voter turnout low so their cultists can carry the day. If “didn’t bother to vote” had been a candidate in 2016, it would have won in a three way race. Of course “didn’t bother to vote” would do a better job than Trump.

8. We can't overly worry about their "narrative"

They'll have some b.s. narrative no matter what we do. They'll misquote, lie, or invent scandals if need be. Always.

We just need to focus on our own talking points.

And I think donnie being impeached *twice* and senate republicans giving him a pass *twice* makes our story stronger.

And I think it helps us take back the senate, tying republicans tightly to donnie.

6. If he's desperate for TV time, he can read obituaries on camera.

Then the GOP can put big signs in each cemetery saying "We built this!"

9. should hold a one day hearing on his dereliction of duty and criminal incompetence.

in his handling of covid.

vote that evening, send it to the senate next day.

they can share the responsibility for this continued disaster.

10. i would love that!
