Ready The Clown Car: The First Batch of Democrats Are Ready To Announce Their 2020 Bids

I do not affiliate or identify with a party. But ideologically, I am a conservative. For people who are so devotedly tribal in their politics that they cannot imagine or conceive of anyone approaching these questions any other way, I guess this can be confusing. But I do not think like you, and that also means I do not think like you, just in reverse. Your confusion about statements like the one that you quoted from me above starts from the wrong and false assumption that I do think like you, only in reverse. I do not.

 

So the Democrats in congress are moving to impeach Trump for extortion? That is your story and you are sticking to it?

 

Again, your obsession with tribalism is blinding you to the possibility that people vote based on ideology or other factors and just do not identify themselves with any particular political party.

Also, as I just stated, I am not a moderate. I am a conservative. That is what you have observed in my posting history. Not any loyalty to the Republican party. But if it amuses you to bear false witness against me, even after you have had the error explained to you repeatedly, then you do you.

 

Pocahontas is not likely to be very good for them either. In fact, her being determined to be the Democrat's best available option by many of the Democrat establishment types is borderline surreal.

 

The President of Ukraine says he did not feel pushed during that conversation, much less "extorted". But I know that you guys are full on into another one of your lynch mob type frenzies, during which it is not possible to reason with you. So, if this does not clear this up for you - and I am sure it will not - then it is probably best to just leave you to your mass hysteria TDS mob style frenzy.

Ukraine president says he didn’t feel ‘pushed’ during call with Trump

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said Wednesday he did not feel pressured during his phone call with President Trump — as Trump doubled down on his call for Ukraine to investigate Joe Biden’s son Hunter Biden.

“We had — I think good phone call. It was normal. We spoke about many things, and I — so I think and you read it that nobody pushed me,” he said during a sit-down Wednesday, adding that he was reluctant to get involved in US politics.​

 

There needs to be a specific law that was broken, and also a clearly identifiable and supportable instance where President Trump broke that law. If this is just going to be a loose attribution of wrongdoing - like "collusion" - without any statutory authority, then this is just a naked political witch hunt, regardless of what kind of spin that you or anyone else who is supporting this tries to put on it.

And most people are going to see it that way.

And it is my sense that we are discussing the Democrat's latest scheme to try to impeach Trump in this thread about the Democrat presidential primary thread because the Democrat's are coming to the conclusion that they are not likely to be able to beat Trump in the actual election, so this latest desperation attempt to bring him down by some sort of pathetically weak impeachment effort is the best idea for how to give their candidate a pathway to the presidency.

 

So, you and presumably the Democrats in Congress are just going to assume that Trump extorted a leader of a country, despite no real evidence to support that assertion and with public testimony by that leader to the contrary. And that is going to be your basis for impeaching the President of the United States.

Go for it.

 

Tulsi Gabbard will participate in the October debate.

Gabbard qualifies for fourth presidential debate

Rep. Tulsi Gabbard (D-Hawaii) became the 12th Democratic presidential candidate to qualify for the party’s October primary debate on Tuesday after a new poll showed her with 2 percent support in New Hampshire.

To qualify for the October debate, candidates have to collect contributions from 130,000 unique donors and register at least 2 percent in four Democratic National Committee-approval polls. Gabbard met the donor benchmark weeks ago but has struggled to notch enough support in a fourth poll to put her over the polling threshold.

That changed on Tuesday after a Monmouth University poll showed the Hawaii congresswoman with 2 percent support among registered New Hampshire Democrats and unaffiliated voters who are likely to vote in the crucial first-in-the-nation primary on Feb. 11.​
