McConnell is a cynical opportunist who is all about power, first and foremost, and vanquishing Trump for good would definitely fall in line with that

    He did a good job on that, I know all of the other talking points that people want to raise about him but that specific statement was exactly correct

    A source close to the White House who is in touch with some of the rioters at the Capitol said it's the goal of those involved to stay inside the Capitol through the night.


    https://twitter.com/acosta/status/13...144655362?s=21


    This seems overlooked. Who is the source close to the White House that was in touch with some of the rioters

    I read somewhere they can convict after he’s out of office. Not sure if that’s accurate.

    On one hand it takes him out of 2024, but I’d assume it basically ensures Ivanka or Don Jr in the primary.

    I may be the only one that thinks he will be impeached, convicted, and barred from running again. McConnell will be a yes. Two years is a loonnngggggg time in this news environment. People will forget. But Republicans basically lost all control of gov't with Trump at the wheel. They're not going to want to risk that again (at least leadership isn't, obviously cocksuckers like Gaetz are a different story). I bet you Mitch is itching to get articles of impeachment in front of him.

    I think if the republicans ever decide they want to move away from Trump, it would be easier to do it with one of his kids running than with him running.

    I think you’ve lost a grip of reality if you think there are enough GOP votes to convict.

    The 25th is the noose around his neck. That’s the only thing that has an actual fractional chance. And the second they start impeachment, the 25th is done and the mass resignations will occur.

    This isn’t grounded in reality, either.

    They just had a trial without witnesses last time. If Mitch wants to delay, he will, and thus no vote on conviction will occur before inauguration.

    The fact that we're debating whether barring Trump from running for office again would be beneficial or detrimental to GOP Congressmen's careers:

    If anyone thinks conviction in the Senate is possible, I need a list of 16-18 Republican Senators who would support it.

    Can the impeachment process not extend past the inauguration though?

    If I look at it through the "he holds zero political capital for them anymore" then I agree with you. Keeping him in power cost them both houses of the legislative branch and the executive. They do not want to risk opening the cut and bleeding more.

    McConnell, Romney, Sasse, Lisa Murkowski, Susan Collins, maybe Lindsay Graham, maybe Marco Rubio. I think it would be a lot closer than you think.

    Potentially:

    McConnell
    Romney
    Murkowski
    Collins
    T. Scott
    Rubio
    Sasse

    Cotton?
    Graham?
    Grassley?
    Lee?
    Paul?

    Some of those question marks just based on Wednesday's objection votes and debate comments

    Potentially? But the whole point of removing Trump is moot at that point.

    Okay, so with those names (and some are questionable), you’re a bit less than halfway there.

    Whether you think he will be convicted or not, impeachment is the right thing to do.

    You do the right thing, no matter how difficult or futile it seems.

    So even with the ? Senators, you’re still short.

    See what I’m saying? There’s no shot. No R senator up for reelection in 2022 will sign on because they’ll be primaried from their right and lose, and no one who has Presidential ambitions is going to sign on because they need Trump’s base for that.

    And McConnell isn’t going to put his already diminished caucus in further jeopardy of a bloodbath-wave election in the midterms.

    Trump will not be removed via Impeachment. The 25th is the only avenue, and it’s currently being used to keep him hostage - and it seems he’s accepted his leash for these next two weeks.

    And they will impeach him.

    He will be the first President ever to be impeached twice.

    Every time I see that picture of sitting at Pelosi's desk I think about what a complete dipshit he is. He's so cocky and smug in that picture. He's posing for the picture. The photographer might as well have been taking his mugshot and yet he's too stupid to realize that.
