This is Trump performing his tried and true "I barely knew him" strategy. Let's remember that it was Epstein who introduced Melania to Donald.
    Who said Epstein introduced Melania to Donald, Epstein? He’s proven depraved pedophile, also liar.

      Indeed. The most absurd part is POTUS himself feeding the frenzy. And the irony is that Donald Trump has at least as much motive and capability to have been behind a faked suicide as anyone. Though mostly I'd suspect his retweet of the conspiracy theory has more to do with his unending quest for revenge against Hillary Clinton.

        Here's what Rogue said...



        Whether the Senate votes to remove from office or not does not change the fact that the House can impeach.

        Rouge is absolutely correct - the Senate cannot stop the House from impeaching Trump.

        The mistake you repeatedly make is failing to understand that impeachment is simply the House side of the equation. For example, Bill Clinton was impeached by the House. He was not removed by the Senate.
        Yeah, I think most everyone that follows the issue, including myself understands that, CP, but impeachment is a term that most of us use in general to describe the entire process. You and rogue just like to point it out as an error so that you can show your intellectual superiority as if your interlocuter just doesn't know what they're talking about when you know in fact that they do. It's a losers tactic!

          Unfortunately the right wing propagandists understand that if you say a thing often enough, many people will come to believe it. The Russians know it as well!

            Wrong. Not that Moscow Mitch and the Senate are preventing the House from impeaching, but that the unlikely chances of the corrupt Moscow Mitch and his republican majority Senate of ever convicting Trump makes opening an impeachment inquiry a difficult decision for both the House and the good of the country. They need the american people to see all the evidence making it nearly impossible for the corrupt Moscow Mitch and his majority Senate to dismiss it and so not convict. And even at that point, should they not convict in the face of overwhelming evidence, the exposure allows the american people to make a more informed decision at the ballot box. That's what you're all so worried about, in your hypocricy, you all of a sudden no longer like transparency.

That was why, in part, she kept taking so much time off from campaigning (that and health issues) as well as not even bothering to campaigning in several key states.
              Probably was in the bag, she wasn'rt counting on the Russian/Trump campaign collusion effect.

                  No, "impeachment" has a specific meaning, and people who use the word to mean something different are just displaying their ignorance.
                  "If you believe, take the first step, it leads to Jesus Christ. If you don't believe, take the first step all the same, for you are bidden to take it. No one wants to know about your faith or unbelief, your orders are to perform the act of obedience on the spot. Then you will find yourself in the situation where faith becomes possible and where faith exists in the true sense of the word." - Dietrich Bonhoeffer, The Cost of Discipleship

                      No, Jim - impeachment is a very specific concept, and those of us who understand it realize that the Senate has no role in preventing it. All they can do is "not convict" when the case gets handed to them if, indeed, there is an impeachment.

                      You and rogue just like to point it out as an error so that you can show your intellectual superiority as if your interlocuter just doesn't know what they're talking about when you know in fact that they do. It's a losers tactic!
                      As I have stated before, I have been challenged by brothers to stop ridiculing your spelling and grammar -- I will not, however, pass on pointing out where you are factually wrong. The Senate does not initiate, control, direct, prevent.... they have no role in the actual impeachment process until it gets handed to them for a decision to remove the impeached.

                        Because they have no power to do so.

                        Not really - if the Democrats think they have something that will cause the American people to see the need to remove Trump from office, they need to proceed. That they DON'T proceed simply because they feel the Republicans will not vote to remove Trump shows what a bunch of cowards the Democrats are. The truth is, they (all of them) make their calculations on impeachment based on whether they will lose their own power in congress in upcoming elections.

                        It's entirely political.

                          I think her bigger problem was that she ignored her husband's advice.

                              She abandoned the middle class, probably BECAUSE she counted her chickens before they hatched.

                                Always can count on you to show a complete disconnect from and disregard for reality.
