What If They Gave an Impeachment and Nobody Came?
It's Kurt
[Townhall] So, while that human troll doll of an ambassador was back east dancing for Adam Schiff’s pleasure and I was out in a glitzy blue Los Angeles-area city at a nice restaurant to score some munchables and people were talking and chatting and interacting and how many were talking about impeachment?

Here’s a hint: It’s the same number as the average dates per decade for a Weekly Standard writer.
Ouch.
Just kidding ‐ there is no such thing as a writer for the Weekly Standard because it destroyed itself by sucking.

The number is "Zero."

Nil.

Nada.

Even less than the amount of Indian in Chef Sitting Bolshevik’s DNA.

No one cares.

Well, not no one. People in Washington care. After all, Donald Trump’s real crime is not deferring to the same D.C. geniuses who were so relentlessly awful that they caused us to elect Donald Trump in the first place. The meme is going around that "I hired Donald Trump to fire people like you," and boy ‐ is it ever on point. That the president ‐ yeah, he’s our president and he’s going to keep being our president for five more long years ‐ refuses to submit to the bureaucrats of the ruling caste on foreign policy is not a bug. It’s a feature ‐ the feature that closed the sale.

...Here’s the deal about impeachment. All this three-ring clown show stuff, all these poll-tested narratives ("Remember, our focus group in Duluth says ’quid pro quo’ is 7.632 percent less evocative than ’bribery’! Everyone go with ’bribery’ from now on!"), all these endless, rehearsed resumé dumps they call their opening statements, mean nothing. It’s a joke. This is not a fact-finding inquiry. This is kabuki theater for dumb people, trying to swing them around to embracing the fait accompli that is impeachment.

...So, to get rid of Trump and stop him from his unholy destruction of norms and rules, our elite has abandoned...

The concept of free speech...

The notion of objective reporting...

The idea of due process...

The principle that the people rule, not government flunkies.

They somehow think that this all gets forgotten after the inevitable humiliation of the Democrat coupsters in the Senate. They would scour the Earth of freedoms and rights and call the resulting wasteland "Democracy."

But they will fail.

How do I know?

Because nobody cares.

#2 Whats the CHARGE ? WHAT is Trump being indicted FOR?
For BEING Trump? We elected him FOR that. Get RID of the DC crapheads. They work for us, we don't work for them.

#6 I'm surprised the Pubs haven't walked out of this Schitt show. By attending this impeachment hearing star chamber show trial gives it far more dignity than it deserves. The lynching occurred before the trial began--sometime back in 2015 or 2016.

#7 As long as this continues, more information that everybody knows comes out, JohnQC... and the well developed American instinct for fairness drives ever more of the undecideds into President Trump’s camp.

#8 JohnQC, I think most Pubs want him gone too, but they need cover lest they be gone with him.

#9 This is Wylie E. Coyote's ACME rocket exploding over his head. Elmer Fudd shooting himself in the arse. Daffy Duck walking into the business end of the hunter's [not Hunter B's] shotgun.

aka The Shitshow. Part 191.
