President Trump Is Going To Be Impeached the Question Is How Much Damage It Does

% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.


The big news late last week was the sentencing memo the US Attorney’s office for the Southern District of New York submitted in regards to Michael Cohen’s guilty plea. The office basically said that Cohen’s cooperation was worth little, but it went beyond Cohen in laying out for what Hot Air colleague Gabriel Malor calls a “road map” for indicting Trump:

Is that the case? IANAL, and so can only go with my gut feeling that the number of people ever indicted for knowingly violating campaign finance laws is pretty much limited to people the prosecutors don’t like, like Dinesh D’Souza. In short, while it could happen it would be a bigger sign that The Resistance now controls the SDNY prosecutor’s office than any the significance of the action. As Andy McCarthy, says:

While Trump clearly will not be indicted before his term ends…and if he’s re-elected the statute of limitations will have expired…that really isn’t the point. These alleged felonies will serve as the basis for impeachment and all it will take is a simply majority of the House to send the case to the Senate for trial.

The writing is clearly on the wall.

President Trump will be impeached.

The odds of him being removed from office is very low but the odds of him being impeached by the House of Representatives approaches 100%. Despite the noises you are hearing from the Democrat party and its Congressional caucus, the House Democrats can’t not impeach Trump for several reasons.

First, they have to even the score for Clinton. Clinton’s impeachment is still believed to be a wildly radical and improper step taken by a highly partisan special prosecutor and getting their own back will be just too great a temptation to resist.

Second, they want to put an asterisk by Trump’s election. The whole Russia-collusion narrative is being exposed for the utter bullsh** rational people always knew it to be. In its place they are going to use President Trump’s payments to two mistresses as a way of locking in their narrative that Trump won by cheating. As Nadler says, “they were committed in the service of fraudulently obtaining the office.”

Third, their base demands it and will punish them if they don’t.

Fourth, impeachment will take place as the 2020 primary season gets underway and they undoubtedly feel the best campaign advertisement for the Democrats will be lengthy House Judiciary Committee hearings, covered gavel-to-gavel by CNN and MSNBC as well as extensive play in the New York Times and Washington Post, where Trump can be attacked and where there will be virtually no significant coverage of his defenders. If the Senate drags its feet, that will be a further point of attack. It the Senate votes to acquit, yet another vulnerable flank is revealed.

Given the near inevitability of impeachment, how does this play out? Will the impeachment be seen as the political opportunism and revenge that it is or will it be seen as justified? Will it draw out more anti-Trump votes to reward the act? Or will the Democrat base be smoking a cigarette and wiping down with a damp washcloth in the afterglow and just forget to show up?

        1) when someone participates in a sexual encounter, whether for pay, for social or professional advancement, or just for the hell of it, it is not abuse.

        2) Everybody who has a normal functioning body likes to screw, that is just part of human biology. The true shame is that social climbers have no shame and therefore will extort others in order to guarantee being discrete.

        Those guys didn’t abuse their positions any more than the women they enjoyed carnality with did. They exploited the men by using their pussies as a commodity.

        The fact is, the exploitation is going both directions. Current political correctness suddenly makes one gender the villain, which is just another example of how much laxity Satan has in his exploits on the earth right now.
