1. Impeach Tr*mp now
Thu Sep 3, 2020, 05:22 PM
Sep 2020

My suggestion is for the House to impeach Tr*mp a second time, now, in early September.
Then delay walking the charges to the Senate until the point where Tr*ump's fascism reaches a peak (with his voting suppression chaos and state sanctioned violence against peaceful Americans).

At that point, perhaps enough Republican senators (20) would finally be ready to vote to convict and remove, joining the 47 Democratic members and independents.

The trial might occur in October. Another possibility is to wait until the days after the November 3 election. Tr*mp will be denying and challenging voting results in
a way a million times worse than the year 2000 election.

After November 3, some Republican senators may even be lame ducks, having lost their own campaigns, and they may be willing to vote their conscience. Am I being too naive?

4. My gut feeling is we don't want to give republiCONs the opportunity to vote on impeachment

a second time, some might grow a spline and vote yes to help their reelection chances.
Need them to continue looking like they're a 100% behind rumpf. Welcome to DU.

commit voter/election fraud comes w/ a hefty price, as history shows. Republicans have seem to have the bulk of prior voter/election fraud cases thus far (googled, although persons representing both sides of the political fence have done it).

And again, you're absolutely hit it on the nail-head that ...

...there are going to be morons on the republican side who'll try or attempt to commit voter and/or election fraud simply
because the MORON in chief in the WH is up to his usual tricks, insinuating that others commit the crime (but not directly telling them to do so, so the coward in chief can claim to be innocent)...

Surely these morons (the WH one, and the others attempting to illegally vote twice) realize the severe penalties surrounding voter
fraud.

Take care, lets get these ignorant thugs out of the WH, and start on a new and better path in this Country.

May I be so bold to (based on your userID/username usaf-vet), thank you for your service (I assume (perhaps incorrectly) that you served). If I'm correct, thank you for serving our Country and the rest of us on the front lines. It means a lot to me that you were willing to go in harm's way, and protect/serve all of us.

Go in peace, and be safe and careful.

10. Impeach him on January 3rd when new Congress is sworn in

And rush through it in a week, remove him and pence together.

The current rethugs will not vote to impeach him. If they lose or keep their seats, they took the loyalty pledge. When we gain a majority in the Senate we could push it through. That's one of my wishful thoughts.

My goal is prison, 2021. The lot of them.

Vote Blue up and down the ticket.

Tar and feather the top fucker. Run it of off this planet on rails, or rail gun - your choice.

The remainder go to prison for life.

We don't need shitheads attempting to run things.

We need level heads that can actually run things.

Vote Biden/Harris. Vote for competence.

Vote Blue.
