AOC attacks fellow Democrats for not impeaching Trump
2019-09-22
[NY Post] Noted"Genius" bleats Progressive firebrand Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez blasted her fellow Democrats for their failure in not moving ahead with impeachment ​proceedings ​against President Trump.

"At this point, the bigger national scandal isn't the president's lawbreaking behavior ‐ it is the Democratic Party's refusal to impeach him for it​," the first-year lawmaker wrote on Twitter shortly before midnight Saturday.

"It is one thing for a sitting president to break the law. It's another to let him​," she said. "The integrity of our democracy isn't threatened when a president breaks the law. It‘s threatened when we do nothing about it. The GOP's silence & refusal to act shouldn't be a surprise. Ours is.​"​

Something bothers me about the verb

The record seems to have stuck at 'increase influence with young anti-establishmentarians by dissing the old timers.' She hasn't had an original thought since Saikat left.

#10  People think they can impeach the President just because they don't like him.

These spoiled children not used to being thwarted, ever.

When in the end you only believe in a one party system, of course they think they can.

#7   the Democrats were super outraged that Clinton got impeached for raping that intern.

Point of order: the impeachment charges were lying under oath and obstruction of justice.

/me notes without comment the devaluation of the word 'rape'.

#6  What law did Trump break?

People think they can impeach the President just because they don't like him.

I think this is because the Democrats were super outraged that Clinton got impeached for raping that intern. That he was guilty just made it worse. Of course he got off due to them putting party above country, but ever after they were furious and want revenge.

#4  She thinks the president can be impeached just for being "yucky". Probably never heard of the constitution.

She must have slept thru the entire Obama era. Unless this is simply about partisan politics. /shocked face
