We have heard numerous Democratic senators and representatives say that off camera, Republicans have expressed concern about Trump's unhinged demeanor. Is this finally what it will take for them to say "Enough" and back impeachment? Clearly there has to be a point at which they stand up and put country above the crazed felon. Thoughts?

(17,491 posts)I used to be MUCH more active at this site prior to the craziness of the last election. I was convinced that SURELY there was NO WAY anybody would vote for that idiot again.
In severe shock, I've quit following SO many 'pundits' and political leaders, having believed that they 'knew' - just like me - that there was NO WAY he'd be back. I, like them, was wrong.
I also had great faith in Jack Smith - and believed that Judge Cannon would be burned at the stakes by other 'professional' judicial associates. Again, I was wrong.
I'm feeling like I've had a 'sit-down' with my Dad.
"Son, there is no 'justice.' Bad people CAN and DO win. Not all people have a sense of 'what is right' and 'want to be fair.' People can be shits!"
I'm waiting for the 'Big Macs" to kick in. That is now the basis of any hope that I have.
Mom didn't lie to me about 'eating right' - did she?

Impeachment? As in actually deposing? Not even worth talking about.

(9,742 posts)Recent days could be tipping point to something worse in near term.
Examples like major war against Iran or domestic crackdown on dissent.
Those, domestic and foreign, that benefit from Trump will continue to be resistant.
Vance sucks too and is less obvious and maybe more in thrall to money and power that have stolen the USA,

(37,268 posts)Had to pick up a few things at the local box store. Passed a guy with a tee shirt that said, in big letters, Trump is a child molester. I said nice shirt and he thanked me. Point is, a year ago I saw lots of red hats. None now, in fact we had a big wind today and I think that got the last tRump signs.
They have no defense for the pedo label. USE IT.

AI - in late 2018 discussing Donald Trump's mental state. In a December 31, 2018, text, Epstein wrote to Bannon: "He is really borderline," referring to Trump. Bannon responded: "I think it's beyond borderline -- 25 amendment," implying Trump was unfit and should be removed from office under the 25th Amendment.
