Mega-Thread: Trump Focused Discussion

[Bodakane]

If there were enough votes then this would have much more value. Or even if there were some undecided votes that could get them over the threshold. But when you already likely know how this will turnout..

You are arguing against symbolic victories and putting in the effort to achieve justice.

History always judges, so sign your name to the good side.

Worked for Pro-Life groups and designed Trump ads while talking about how much he loved seeing children suffer and die...

It makes sense you can’t abuse or kill an unborn child.

In a sick sick way but it makes sense.

Hope he gets life or a massive chunk of his life in prison.

[Toppy]

He is a legal hazard to himself and he is aware of it.

Thats why they need to taunt him. He will fall for it if they keep at it.

I like to believe it would happen but he is a coward.

Has Trump ever stood up to someone to their face?

Trump supporter detected. I'm sure you'll excel in the upcoming 24-hour challenges that will have your name on them.

I'm not. I like how if someone just questions how valuable the impeachment will be when there likely are enough votes they get branded a "trump supporter"
Not cool at all and really sad.

[Breccia]

I'm not.

"I'm not a Trump supporter, but isn't everything he does just the best and there should be no consequences for..."

Yes you are. Nobody buys your act, not even you.

Then when we look back at this point in US history, we'll remember that Republicans put one man and their party over the country. Sometimes you do shit for future generations, knowing that it won't have immediate effect but will serve as a lesson for the future.

Just because Republicans have made it clear they won't remove him doesn't mean the whole thing should just go away.

It shouldn't go away and there's alot of different ways they can move forward. Special Prosecutor thru The Justice Dept for example.

It's already so difficult for Biden considering the situation he has inherited and this just makes it even more difficult for him to move the country forward.

President-elect Joe Biden already faces the daunting task of steering a newly announced $1.9 trillion coronavirus relief bill through a closely divided Congress as the pandemic and its economic fallout grow.

The confluence of events amounts to one of the most politically and logistically complicated openings to a new administration in modern history, requiring Biden to try to move the country into a post-Trump era even as senators debate Trump’s most divisive acts.

“It’s going to be incredibly challenging,” said former Arkansas Sen. Mark Pryor, a Democrat. “There’s only so much bandwidth in the Congress.”

But once the proceedings start, it’s certain to be tougher for Biden to completely avoid them, with the trial dominating the news cycle and forcing his former opponent back into the spotlight, even as Biden tries to stay focused on the coronavirus pandemic.

And there’s the prospect they could further exacerbate the already fraught atmosphere on Capitol Hill, politicizing Biden’s agenda and making it tougher for him to get support from winnable Republican senators.

The GOP refusing to do their sworn duty doesn’t negate the importance of impeachment. You may not care that Trump incited a violent insurrection, but some of us do.

I care but I'm acknowledging that with that without enough votes in Senate, this isn't exactly going to accomplish that much. If you had enough votes then sure, this would do a lot more.

Dude, Biden's not even watching this shit. He's got a job to do and he's completely unconnected from the Senate trial.

If you want to know why folks assume you're a Trump supporter, it's because you're intentionally/unintentionally repeating functionally every argument against the Senate trial that Republicans have made so far.

He has literally zero part in this.

Trump's Twitter ban is permanent, even if he runs for office again in 2024.

Yay!!! Twitter giving him the laura loomer treatment puts a huge smile on my face.

New York State moves to rename Donald Trump state park to literally anything else.

Our parklands should be reflective of New Yorkers that we can be proud of, New Yorkers that have expressed our values. There are a lot of other New Yorkers who are worthy of the honor of having a park named after themselves.

Sad, but yummy.

You don't just "move forward" from Trump and his supporters trying to overthrow American democracy and install him as an unelected dictator. There needs to be consequences. Then we move forward.

You don't rob a bank or murder someone then tell the judge you shouldn't be punished because everyone needs to move forward and heal.

[Breccia]

Indeed.

You also don't avoid doing something, because "it doesn't have the votes". Make people sign their name on supporting a murderous insurrection. Hell, Trump didn't have the votes to win and he still ran.

You can just admit you've never read To Kill A Mockingbird, sweetheart.

People are having fun with Trump's defense team.

"Oh we have too much to do, lets just let that crime go unaccounted for."

it's the same tune whenever social topics come up.

"Man why are you focusing so much on LGBT issues when there's poors in the streets?!" - Party of people oppressing LGBT people and preventing aid to the poor.

Watergate...Iraq War...Insurrection...it's amazing how often "move the country forward" means "let's not hold Republicans accountable."
