Would You Settle For Censure Of Trump Instead Of Impeachment?

Would You Settle For Censure Of Trump Instead Of Impeachment?

I don't see my fellow Democrats being "out for blood" in the Congress, no, out to protect the office of the Presidency and the Constitution from a man who has proven from day one he respects neither and that the "people" he is most concerned with he brought with him into the White House.

It is obvious that there would not be any successful Censure vote coming out of the Senate.

So the notion of going that route is an exercise in futility.

LOL. Yeah, that. You guys can't even be honest while claiming that Trump lies all the time.
 
Democrats are not out for blood. They are doing their Constitutional duties.

Censure sometimes works. But it wouldn't work on Trump. He has no shame.

He has to be impeached if for no other reason than all future Presidents need to understand that their power as POTUS does not include demanding another country investigate the son of his/her political rival in order to receive Congressionally approved funding. It won't send a message to Trump but he's beyond hope anyway. Hopefully it will be a reminder to the next Presidents.

LOL. The sad thing is that you guys really believe that. I guess when you tell the lie so many times you just start believing it yourself. Now it's time for you to say something about me rather having a pedophile in office than a Democrat.
 
I wouldn't doubt that some are happy about it, but that isn't the majority nor are most people "Happy" about it. It's a ****ing embarrassment that the President has acted in the way he has. Asking foreign countries for help against political opponents, abusing his power and obstructing congress. These are things Republicans used to denounce from a president and now you guys happily cheer for it. You even cheer for the senate leader McConnel BLATENTLY saying he isn't going to be impartial in the trial. I mean the lows you guys have gone just proves you don't give a **** about our country.

That embarrassment is leading in the polls of the swing states, not to mention the red states. Apparently, only you diehard lefties are embarrassed.
 
Every witness called, even GOP witnesses, proved Trump committed a crime. Trump and his associates own words admit he committed a crime. Not one witness to show Trump's innocence. not one argument from Republicans showing innocent.

And republicans want vindication? LOL Shows what scumbags they are and shows the right has no credibility

So NOW you take polls as Gospel when Trump is in the lead? As I already have mentioned, it is TOO SOON for those type of polls when a Dem nominee hasn't been picked even. I have also mentioned I didn't believe the polls when Trump was behind and I don't believe those polls now that Trump is in the lead. When a Dem nominee is picked than I will take a closer look at them whether they are legitimate or not.

Sad and pathetic that you think polls are somehow a defense of Trump's actions.
 
No, no, no.

No one deserves impeachment more than Trump.

Well, he actually deserves Section 4 of the 25th Amendment, but that isn't happening. He would take mere censure as a total joke. He would be gleeful. Would crow about how even Democrats saw that he was "perfect" and so they weaseled out of impeachment. It must be impeachment, and then penalizing Republicans for putting fealty to Trump (or fear of being primaried by his cult) ahead of doing their Constitutional duty.

Thanks for bringing up the fact that you actually said that and thus confirms your absolute bias.

Now, you can go back to defending a law breaking moron.

I love Trump, will definitely be voting for him in 2020.

Polls show movement and trends. They show that more people are moving to Trump's corner since this impeachment nonsense. Democrats had bet the farm it would be the other way. Foreclosure is coming soon.
 
Tulsi Gabbard has come out today favoring censure over impeachment. I was curious what both sides think of this compromise. I'm guessing that both sides would not be in favor of doing this, as Democrats are out for blood and Trump & Co are out for total vindication. Trump has already poo pooed this idea in the past. But, this question is for DP members.



I've come out in favor of them dropping the whole impeachment thing and getting back to work, you know what we pay them to do? Run the country.
 
I would endorse unanimous censure by the House followed in the next 24 hours by a presidential resignation.

Yep we don't need to hold a president accountable for abusing power, obstructing congress and asking for foreign government help against a political opponent. We just need to anoint him King so that he can do as he pleases without that pesky Constitution getting in his way.

That has about as much chance happening as Trump apologizing for all his misdeeds he's done his entire life. Might as well wish for world peace, that would be a lot easier.

Yep, Trump will win re-election so just pass along to your buddies that you and they have no reason to vote, he's a shoe in. :lamo

You realize polls showed a hard trend of Hillary winning right?

What law breaking moron? What laws has he broken? When a person defeats sixteen rivals of his own party and then goes on to beat an annointed queen and become president of the United States it's really hard to try claim that person is a moron.

Donald Trump, you know the President who abuses his power and can't put together coherent speeches unless they are written for him.

Your guy that is in love with a murderous dictator, you must be so proud!

 
Censure is a form of official shaming, and Trump has proven to all that he has no shame. Censure is for shaming him for racist comments, or mocking women or a handicapped reporter. Censure is not the punishment for high crimes and misdemeanors or abuse of power, impeachment is the remedy for those. Censure would mean less than a hand slap for Trump. I'm not surprised Tulsi Gabbard would be in favor of censure since, although she may not be a Russian asset, she sure talks like one.

Find abuse of power in the constitution yet?
 
Nothing about impeachment is "worth it," there is no victory lap here no matter what happens.

What we are seeing is a sad and dark moment in US history where because of the planned outcome in the Senate there no longer is any standard for dealing with a President abusing their power.

Are you claiming that there was no "planned outcome" in the House kangaroo court?

Such hatred being taught to society by CNN and MSNBS

They just make stuff up and read people's minds to determine he would have committed a crime.

Rest easy though because our side will prevail in 2020. Big reason is we have a purpose and they don't. That will be to avenge the evil diabolical crazy man Schiff. If looks could kill, he would kill he entire human race. I have never witnessed such a contemptible evil man in my entire life.
