BREAKING: House Democrat drafting articles of impeachment for Trump
- Thread starter Spectrum
- Start date
Even if Green doesn't get off the ground with this it will pave the way for more powerful attempt by the 2018 elections. I wouldn't be surprised if some new members of Congress run on the sole platform of impeaching Trump.
I'll take a conservative Jesus freak who knows how to delegate over Trump any day

Too much, too soon. The Dems need to pump the brakes. They're reachin'. Comey is not going to come out and say that Trump asked him to obstruct. The Dems need to chill and continue to let Trump implode while Mueller digs up the real dirt that makes impeachment more realistic.
What would be cool if folks started showing up at his rallies with handcuffs and screaming Citizens arrest or lock him up. That would fuck his head up. This guy is weak. To beat Trump is to chip away at his false reality. He the first President in history you can troll on Twitter. Maybe this congressman has the right idea. Every little bit will stress him a little more.
Easy B wish he broke this story first he is going to be very upset when he sees this post.
damn...y'all shoulda let @easy_b get the scoop on this...you know he been waiting for this his whole life

LOL I always do that. If I had one more screw loose I would be talking in the 4th person
I apologise then.. I thought I saw your name on a list of
open Trump supporters on the forum that someone
compiled and posted on the forum
House Democrat.
He named Christies Bridgegate lawyer Wray for FBI director lmaooo
I expect Wray to withdraw his name in another week
So how would that stance impact YOU directly tho?
House? It won't make it out of committee.
Let's see...you need republican controlled house to bring impeachment charges and a republican controlled senate to prosecute. So you really expect any one of those things to happen?
Hell...me writing up impeachment charges is just as effective as the democrat minority in the house writing it.

I believe their focus is and their best chance is winning a majority in the senate.
Searched didn't see it
Rep. Brad Sherman introduces articles of impeachment against Trump
Los Angeles-area Rep. Brad Sherman has introduced articles of impeachment against President Trump, making good on a promise to move the process forward.
Sherman's move has put him at odds with House Democratic leaders, who have tried to quiet talk of impeachment, hoping instead to focus on the economy, healthcare and the investigation into Russia's interference in the presidential election.
Sherman, an 11-term Democrat who represents part of the San Fernando Valley, was the first to draft and circulate articles of impeachment last month. He formally introduced the measure, HR 438, on the House floor Wednesday afternoon.
The measure accuses Trump of obstruction of justice and seeking to "use his authority to hinder and cause the termination" of an investigation into former national security advisor Michael Flynn, including "through threatening, and then terminating, James Comey."
Rep. Al Green (D-Texas), who had previously held a joint news conference with Shermansupporting the effort to impeach Trump, was the only co-sponsor of the measure.
Sherman had previously said no other members had signed on to support his proposal. After House Democratic leaders expressed concern about his effort, Sherman said he assured House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi that he wouldn't ask for a floor vote on impeachment without consulting the Democratic caucus.
Asked for comment on the impeachment effort, Pelosi responded with a statement calling again for independent commission to investigate Russia’s interference in the 2016 election.
The impeachment measure is a long way from a floor vote and is expected to be referred to the House Judiciary Committee. It faces substantial resistance in the GOP-controlled House.
In a statement, Sherman said he and Green will push the Judiciary Committee to hold hearings on the matter. He added that he hopes introducing articles of impeachment would "inspire an 'intervention' in the White House." He called his move "the first step on a very long road," and said he believed that Republicans would join the effort "many, many months from now" if Trump's "incompetence" continues.

The democrats have no power. That's like a woman being rapped warning the rapist he will be prosecuted.
