    He seems to be under the delusion that he has Trump on the ropes when I'm not sure Trump is even in the ring.

      Schiff and the Dems would be shirking their responsibility to protect the Constitution, not to mention the co-equal nature of the 3 branches of government if they should throttle back. If the republican Seanate refuses to convict, then the public will have the opportunity to punish them as well as Trump come next november.

        Yes, I'm fully aware that's the latest talking point, and you parrot it well.
        The first to state his case seems right until another comes and cross-examines him.

        • First, Representative Brenda Lawrence said the House shouldn't vote to impeach, they should censure the President. Now she's saying that the House should vote to impeach and that the Senate should censure instead deciding whether to acquit or remove the President from office.

            Yeah - no. If it goes to the Senate, it goes to trial. She knows that - she's just stuck between reality and her party's insanity.

              Really? I didn't see much news Tuesday, but prior to that, I saw Lying Sack of Schiff on some interview show, and he seemed much less blustery and definitive about it.

                • David Harsany makes a good point...

                  Impeachment is a political process. No sentient being, after all, believes that Adam Schiff or Nancy Pelosi are good-faith guardians of constitutional order. And judging the process strictly on political grounds, it hasn’t been a success for Democrats.

                  For one thing, impeachment, if it happens, will effectively end up being a partisan censure of the president. Democrats haven’t gotten any closer to convincing a single Senate Republican to contemplate removing the president. Certainly not Mitch McConnell, who says there will be a quick trial. Not even Mitt Romney, who, at this point, is aptly troubled but uncommitted.


                  I might add that the latest liberal talking point, being faithfully and obediently parroted here on Tweb, is exactly what Harsany claims no sentient being believes - that Adam Schiff or Nancy Pelosi are good-faith guardians of constitutional order.

                    Schiff and Pelosi are the greatest living Americans. You should be turning your thoughts towards dumping Trump. Personally, and I recommend this to you too, I would not even give him the benefit of any remaining doubt, but show him the door at the earliest opportunity, and start working out who will be Pence’s running mate.

                    We need to mobilize public opinion; starting with yours. Let’s get going.

                      Facts would be a good place to start. Obfuscation, deflection, one-sided propaganda, bias reporting, fake news won't typically work, especially on this board.

                            Whether you understand it to be the latest talking point or not does nothing to negate the point. It is the responsibility of congress, it is the oath they take, and you dismiss that responsibility to the peril of the constitution and your country. That's how far you Trump deranged cult members are willing to go for him.

                              Like most all the republicans, Rep. Lawrence is shirking her responsibility for political reasons. Although, when it comes to the republicans, i'm not so sure they aren't happy to overthrow the constitution placing a King in its stead.

                                Correct - it's the latest talking point whether I understand or not. But, I promise you, I do.

                                It is the responsibility of congress, it is the oath they take, and you dismiss that responsibility to the peril of the constitution and your country.
                                And then there are political hacks like Pelosi and Schiff who hide behind that operate as the political hacks they are.

                                That's how far you Trump deranged cult members are willing to go for him.
                                And this kind of nutty statement shows just then kind of deranged thinking that has overtaken the liberals.
