I thought majority of Democrat voters don't want Biden for a 2nd term, so wouldn't him being removed from office actually be a victory?

I'm still genuinely flabbergasted by how Republicans have taken it upon themselves in the last year to co-opt some of the worst election-fumbling qualities that were previously stereotypical of Democrats, particularly self-defeating infighting and the ability to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory. Like, I knew the Trump cult was fated to devour itself on a long enough timeline, I just never imagined it would start happening this quickly. Well said. I am also surprised. The GOP is awful, but the whole party has also become amazingly bad at politics. Even with Limbaugh and Fox brainwashing red state voters for decades and so many efforts at voter suppression, GOP still cant do well in national elections. --- An opinion does not turn into a fact simply because the person holding it feels strongly about it. ...

Telling people to get complacent would be a bad take, but I am not doing that. I am only looking at facts: 1.Trump got it handed to him in the last presidential election, no matter what lies he tells otherwise. 2.Those lies sunk the GOP in the last midterm even though the map was actually quite favorable for them. 3.Every poll of moderates shows that impeachment of Biden is highly unpopular. 4.The GOP hasnt won a popular vote since 2004, and that only happened because of 9/11. Obviously the GOP can win the EC, but it is very clear that the GOP is connecting with fewer and fewer potential voters each year. I am not making assumptions. These are facts. PS: They are not confident enough to run Trump again. The GOP is highly worried that he is unelectable in the general. They dont have a choice but to support him, because they need the brainwashed cult out in force to have a chance. To win in 2024 they also need to expand that base, which so far they cant seem to do. --- An opinion does not turn into a fact simply because the person holding it feels strongly about it. ...

Lol this guy has his balls in the vice grip of the true-hearted Christo-fascists within the party. I hope the 19 or so in Biden-won districts choose to keep their seat over the whims of Christo-fascists and sink this effort.
Fucking fascists. ZMythos posted... Backfire? You're implying that Conservatives actually care about results. If nothing comes up, it's because the "Biden crime family" is hiding evidence and the "corrupt Democrats" are refusing to impeach for partisan reasons. It still has the ability to turn off Independent and moderate voters, the ones who actually decide elections. Could possibly also invigorate the Dem base, whose depressing numbers in showing up consistently is also a hindrance. Impeachment tends to backfire on the impeaching party. It happened with Repubs v Clinton and Dems v Trump. Even if it was the right thing to do, such as with Trump, it's still not overly regarded favorably by the ignorant masses. uwnim posted... Most likely one of the dumbasses in his party forced him to.

Cool we get President Harris then Nah, no impeachment has ever led to removal of a POTUS. That's why I've always considered it a limp-dick attempt at "holding them accountable" that doesn't actually serve any useful function. TerraSeeker posted... It's pretty weak at this point. Like the dems were this shit as soon as Trump got in office. Do you just no feel shame or do you perhaps get sexually aroused by blatantly lying about reality? Republicans had full control of government until 2018. Dems couldn't even do anything to him until halfway through his term. The impeachment for Trump in regards to his quid pro quo call to Zelensky on July 25th where he tried to blackmail him into announcing a fake investigation into Biden wasn't even until Dec 18, 2019, so that's not even immediately after they got into office. It was based off a specific thing Trump did and Pelosi didn't even want to do it initially and there was a long debate within the party during that time.

How many Republicans will vote to impeach even without any evidence? There's 14 Republicans in seats that Biden won in 2020. McCarthy can only afford to lose 5. They'll have to decide if this pointless gesture to appease the true-believing Christo-fascists is worth them losing their seat and power. BearlyWilling posted... No its not. People on this forum love to say this about the right but it never amounts to anything. Republicans are still going to do the same shit they always do. Their voter base is too uneducated for this to amount to anything. The American populace seems to be actually rejecting what the Republicans have become with Trump and with the new right-wing SC. He wasn't even on the ballot in 2022 and traditionally that would lead to a wave of the opposing party winning, and their "red wave" amounted to a 5 seat majority in the House. Ever since 2018 it seems like the Republicans are actually suffering for embracing Christo-fascism because they've just dropped all pretense since their Christo-fascist base needs that appeasement. VFalcone posted... Why is it always accounts related to Vegeta or DBZ saying the most idiotic conservative shit? You've noticed that too? I've seen a few who didn't fit that pattern, however they are definitely the minority from the boards I frequent. Westernwolf4 posted... Well said. I am also surprised. The GOP is awful, but the whole party has also become amazingly bad at politics. Even with Limbaugh and Fox brainwashing red state voters for decades and so many efforts at voter suppression, GOP still cant do well in national elections. I think it's because their base has so fervently embraced open Christo-fascism that the party must openly appeal to that sense of them to win primaries now, which naturally sickens and turns off most of the rest of the nation. It's like something I heard a former Republican strategist comment on the DeSantis campaign when it was pointed out that the things he was saying would turn off the rest of America, "there's no point in worrying about the general election until you win the primary." As scary as it is due to how vocally they're pushing for Christo-fascism, it also seems to be the best solution to dispelling the myth that the Republicans are a serious and legitimate party. --- My metal band, Ivory King, has 2 songs out now - allmylinks.com/ivorykingtx (all of our links there so you can choose which one you'd prefer to use) ...

They had confidence that they could work with even a single false testimony/accusation from someone high up somewhere. I'm sure they also tried everything they could to get Archer to lie under oath but he didn't.
