    The Trump Card...

    (Many) Democrats and anti Trumpers are taking a yooge hit right in the schadenfreude as Palm Beach authorities acquiesced to allow President Trump to take up permanent residency at the Mar-a-Lago private club and resort. In an agreement struck between the resort and the city 30 years ago, club...

    Soooo, if you cite a news report, that makes you a fan of the news outlet? Interesting. I never heard of that before.

    The Trump Card...

    The cool kids shorten it, but it's it's president pro tempore, (Latin, "president for a time"). The Constitution requires the Senate to elect a president pro tempore, and by custom it is the member of the majority party with the longest record of continuous service.

    The Trump Card...

    The Chief Justice presides over trials of presidents, not private citizens. So in this case, they just pick a juror to also be the judge. Here we have Senate Trial Judge Patrick Leahy with House Impeachment Manager Eric Swawell.

    The Trump Card...

    The Senate has plainly set precedent of having the authority to conduct an impeachment trial of someone who no longer holds office. What they have not set a precedent for, however, and they won't this time, either, is a conviction and removal from office someone who no longer holds office.

    The Trump Card...

    The Constitution of the United States: A Transcription The only secret to decoding it is the ability to read and comprehend English. It really isn't. Article II Section 4 plainly states the purpose of impeachment. It's not even open to interpretation. The two Sections in Article I that deal...

    The Trump Card...

    Yes, it is. The "power to try" an impeachment is very different from the "purpose" of the impeachment. The purpose of an impeachment is to remove from office. The purpose of the trial is to judge the case.

    The Trump Card...

    Yes, yes, yes, we all understand the semantics of Impeachment in the House versus the trial in the Senate. But the fact is, the sole purpose of constitutional impeachment by Congress is to remove civil office holders from the office they hold. There is no other purpose for impeachment under the...

    President O'Biden

    No, it's a fact. And it's verifiable. There are many Dems (with "many" meaning in this case "more than two," because more than zero is far too many) literally appeasing the violence on audio and video. Some Dems even went so far at appeasement to help fund bail for those who engaged in the violence.

    The Trump Card...

    Ya got the political parties mixed up there. You know how they say the Left accuses the a a Right of doing the very things the Left has already been doing. It's true. The Democrat Party's motto is By Any Means Necessary. And they've proven over and over again in the last 4+ years to be true to...

    The Trump Card...

    A) You mean like Joe Biden openly and gleefully admitted to doing? B) I don't think you read the Articles of Impeachment, because trying to get dirt on an opponent wasn't one of them C) There was evidence of wrongdoing, possible corruption, and potential criminality on the part of a front-runner...

    Oh, look! I found yet another left wingnut's opinion on Twitter that I agree with. Must post to EO. Look! See?! I now have validity! See?! SEE?! I don't have my own opinions, I have them assigned to me, but here's someone that agrees with me! So there! That's how you look. Either trolling or...

    I'm not sure that gaslighting means what you think it means. In any case, the rightwing doesn't have anywhere near the reach and audience of the unambiguously left-leaning mainstream media. Fox News, for example, doesn't have even remotely the reach and impact of any member of the mainstream...

    Yep. And it's why the media's approval and trust ratings are where they are.

    The Trump Card...

    Tell us all about it. The witch hunt that started before he took office. I don't recall any witch hunt regarding Clinton, and certainly no special prosecutor, before he took office. No question impeaching Clinton was just breathtakingly childish and nakedly partisan, but unlike Trump, Clinton...

    President O'Biden

    Possibly. But liberty and personal freedom runs deep within conservatives, especially Trumpian conservatives. But assuming your flawed setup premise is correct, that people did the dirty work he commanded them to do, only a fraction of those people did the dirty work. The same fraction wearing...
