What If Trump resigns or is Removed From Office?

When I read a Rush turd I always do it in his voice. Its lways funnier that way.

Say, why dont Conservatives have any senses of humor at all?? I was rushing through the NYT this AM , (I try to get to the recipes section. ) and there were at least 6 pictures of Trump in section A. They all look like he was being denutted with a burdizzo.

Yes, indeed. Now and again, I've written something in his style and in one instance I got a tip of the hat from Greg Sargent for my approximation of the dipshit's flourishes. But I can no longer stand to read or listen to him. I didn't read the piece I'd posted but tossed it in for relevance.

The common absence of a sense of humor among folks on the right has been an interest of mine for a long time. I don't want to go absolute on this but the general truth of it is pretty hard to deny. One can draw up a list of the great English speaking humorists and finding a conservative among them is no easy thing. Top to bottom, almost every one of them was or is a liberal.

PS... I once had a conservative argue that Mark Twain was a conservative. I asked why the person thought that. She replied, "He criticized government".

I listened to that slimeball nearly every day when his program was new. He's so predictable I don't need to listen now.

As a propagandist, he's actually quite masterful. But that's like applauding Jeffrey Dalmer for his skill with a power drill.

Like the WP calling Bagdhadi an austere religious scholar? Kind of funny because they claim terror is not connected to the religion.

Rush lures the maladjusted like the Sirens in Homers Odyssey lure the lovelorn into ruination.

Homer was the Greek's Dr. Laura. I've been lured into ruination on uncountable occasions and every time come out smiling.

And speaking of smiling.... do watch this folks

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - U.S. lawmakers planned to cast the first vote on Thursday in the impeachment investigation of President Donald Trump as the Democratic-controlled House of Representatives takes up a measure that sets up the next steps in the fast-moving effort.

The vote will be the first formal test of support for the inquiry launched on Sept. 24. Democrats, who control 224 seats in the 435-seat chamber, need a simple majority to approve the resolution.

The measure calls for public hearings and the release of transcripts from closed-door proceedings. It also outlines what rights Republican lawmakers and Trump himself would have to participate as the process moves ahead.
Republicans have accused Democrats of trampling on Trump’s rights and keeping the process too secret.

The U.S. Constitution gives the House broad authority to set the ground rules for an impeachment inquiry and Democrats say they are following House rules on investigations. They have promised to hold public hearings on the case against Trump.

The impeachment inquiry focuses on a July 25 telephone call, in which Trump asked Ukrainian President Volodymr Zelenskiy to investigate his Democratic political rival Joe Biden, a former U.S. vice president, and his son Hunter, who had served as a director for Ukrainian energy company Burisma.

Trump has denied wrongdoing and called the inquiry a sham.
Lawmakers on Thursday plan to hear closed-door testimony from Tim Morrison, the top Russia specialist on Trump’s National Security Council. Morrison resigned from his position on Wednesday, a senior administration official said.

Looking forward to Lindsey Graham's histrionics. That's gonna be something. I can see him screaming, crying and then bashing out his own teeth on the tomb of the Unknown Gay Soldier.

Speaking of Graham, I am not an admire of Walsh, too conservative by far, however, I liked his comment about if McCain were alive, he be slapping Graham upside the head for getting involved with Trump's BS as that was one of McCain last advice to Graham. (an interview with CNN about 7 days ago)

The only conclusion I can come to concerning Graham is that he is not happy unless he has some kind of "stronger" man to lead him about. I even look for him to soften his stance on objection of Trump's action in Syria. (been away from politics for a few days, he may have already done so as far as I know)

Graham's behavior is incomprehensible to me. One could reasonably presume that, for whatever bizarre psychological need, he years to be a center of attention. But that doesn't really account for his submissiveness. Perhaps he needs stronger males to submit to, as you suggest. I certainly wouldn't rule out the possibility that he's being blackmailed. A weird, weird guy.

I've always wondered what voters see in him.

Pelosi is speaking now of the process and how they are going forward.

I think Graham constantly lives in fear that the Republican knives will come for him. There have always been rumors about his sexual orientation and if he got primaried it could get really, really ugly. Tightly binding himself to powerful politicians is one way to keep him insulated from the attack machine.

Nice work if you can get it, huh?

I think that's a good take. Like so many other Republicans in Congress, he appreciates that if he now places himself in serious opposition to Trump, he's almost certain to be defeated in a primary battle. But his abject submissiveness is fairly unique.

Thank you. That's helpful. Franken's comment carries weight.

I once watched a televised discussion with Graham and Breyer before a group of legal students. Perhaps 20 years ago. He was smart and not at all disagreeable.

Still, we've left with a rather significant puzzle.
