the imprachment process will be unsucessful with the senate. why the theatrics and wasting all the money and time? Trump is doing all kinds of crazy while the Dems are blasting their hype machine. Save the time and prepare for many more years of similar nonsense

We should just ask Ukraine if they were forced by quid pro quo...
It'll cost the GOP a few Senate seats and possibly flip the Senate. The Democrat plan is to make Trump's crimes so evident to the public that the GOP senators who vote against impeachment are seen as corrupt hypocrites. Those that are vulnerable to Democrat challengers will come under enormous pressure to vote to impeach or else risk losing their seat. So what will happen? If the GOP votes party line against impeachment the Senate may flip. If a bunch of GOP senators vote to impeach then even if it's not enough to remove him Trump will go into 2020 with a big black eye.
we voted for Trump, corrupt hypocrites is exactly what we are going for
“corrupt hypocrites” has been the US political system since it’s founding; perhaps you didn’t take US history in high school? xoup, how does your math play out if some democrats defect while no republicans defect (as demonstrated previously). That would be bad for democrats right? I’m just thinking back to when Republicans went after Bill, and how that turned out for them (terribly).
Put another way you are saying "it's a crime but doesn't matter" which may be the case but isn't having a corrupt leader bad, even if he is your guy?
The specific quid pro quo matters. The Democrats are trying to imply any quid pro quo is impeachable which is absurd. It’s abundantly clear at this point the aid was never part of any quid pro quo.
In this case it's aid money for investigation Trump's political opponent. That's very, very criminal.
It’s the meeting not the aid, watch the hearing.
The infamous dossier was created in Ukraine. Ukraine meddled US election with the request of Democrats. And now Trump wants to find out the truth, it becomes another impeachable crime, how convenient!
BS
There was no quid pro quo. At the very least in the "criminal" or "incriminating" sense (you can argue on the broadest semantics, maybe).
Trading access to the President in exchange for a foreign state investigating a political rival is a federal crime, honest service fraud. Enlisting the support of a foreign state in a conspiracy to influence an American election is a federal crime, campaign finance violation. Trading Federal aid for an investigation into a political rival is a federal crime, bribery.
I think you had a stroke half way through. All the things you list didn't happen.
So because the GOP Senate will protect Trump and freely ignore the constitution, the House should too? Nah-uh. That’s not how it works. Our founding fathers split congress into two houses for a good reason. If the Senate won’t convict, impeachment in the people house is even more important to at least to send a message that crooked behavior won’t be tolerated. That’s why they impeached Bill. Just impeach the guy and let the GOP protect him and face the consequences. Better than ignoring it and getting Trump 2.0 who out-Trumps Trump. Because you and I all fucking know Hillary would have been impeached about 5 times already if she pulled half the shit Trump has. Don’t even try and pretend otherwise.
LoL. Hillary maintained a private server and used a hammer to destroyed all her devices to conceal her crimes. Her tech staffs claimed 5th. Trump declassified his conversation script for total transparency. Night and day.
Lol at the last paragraph.
Assuming so, would you rather have everybody do nothing?
Take care of your work and family and vote regularly. Getting upset over that clownfest is not useful.
Yes if you care about your life then exactly, don’t do anything, because there’s nothing you can do
