    For many voters come election day they'll think, what has Trump done for us, and think about things like a booming economy, record low unemployment rates, renegotiated trade deals etc. Then they'll think about what the Democrats have provided and think about impeachment, impeachment, impeachment etc.

    I'm always still in trouble again

      And he did all that while the Democrats were doing everything in their power to OBSTRUCT him!

      The first to state his case seems right until another comes and cross-examines him.

          So, what about this statement?



          Doesn't that describe what's happening today?

            Not really since the move to remove trump is based on the magnitude of the wrongs he has committed.

                  Yeah, with the 'no compromise' extreme right wing evangelical club in Congress.

                    Well Trump has given them what they want regarding a conservative judiciary that may well overturn RvW and LGBT rights. This is all that matters to this lot - power at any cost.

                          I do.

                          Trump knows that his Christian conservative base can be bought and this is cynically just what he's done.
                          We're using him. But don't tell him - he doesn't know it.

                            Actually Trump is using you and he knows exactly how to manipulate the Christian right.

                              Yeah, keep believin' that, Tassy. I didn't know the LiberalTalkingPointsForDummies made it all the way to your little world, but I guess, in this modern age of technology...

                                It was the Democrats who spurred all attempts at cooperation and bipartisanship after the Obamessiah was elected when he infamously sneered "elections have consequences" (his consigliere Rahm Emanuel put it in much starker terms) and repeatedly told them to go to the back of the bus.

                                After Republicans swept into power in the House in 2010 Obama had to ask staffers for the phone numbers for their leadership since he never bothered to call them in the previous two years.
