Impeachment

[Kirkland Laing]

“The President's misconduct cannot be decided at the ballot box, for we cannot be assured that the vote will be fairly won,” lead impeachment manager Rep. Adam Schiff says during his opening statement at the Senate impeachment trial.


Kinda sorta looks like the Democrats already know there's no winning this election so they are getting a head start on not accepting the results

Or it may be that what Schiff is saying is entirely accurate and Trump is trying to fix the 2020 election and his aquittal in this trial will give him carte blanche to attempt to fix the 2020 election with impunity from any legal sanction against him. Full on banana republic stuff.

Oh Trump has fixed the election alright, he's done so good nobody running against him has a chance in hell of winning.


Banana republic eh? You've got nothing to say about Hunter Biden have you? Nothing to say about Hillary's brother have you? Nothing to say about John Kerry's son have you? Nothing to say about any of those corrupt bastards, nah it's all Trump. You're hilarious.

None of these people are president Lyle. All of them have produced decades of tax returns so we know exactly how much money they earn and where it comes from. Every cent they've earned for decades is public knoledge. The current president hasn't produced his tax returns. Nobody knows who is behind the hundreds of millions of dollars in loans he's been given after becoming a serial bankrupt and banks not supplying credit to him anymore. Nobody knows the sources of his income and nobody knows the sources of his kids' income or debts or business dealings because they refuse to make any of the information public, breaking with almost half a century of American leaders making their financial information public.

Trump has also refused to divest from his businesses and assets unlike fifty years of previous presidents so he's in a position to profit from his office while nobody knows from who and by how much.

We do know that just since he took office he's paid out $27 million in settlements to various courts to avoid various indictments for fraud and that he's now banned from running a charity or sitting on the board of one. His kids have to perform community service for their part in his personal charity fraud and have been ordered by a court to spend this time having mandatory training lessons in learning how to not commit fraud in their future business dealings.

The Trump corruption is orders of magnitude above anything any other political figure has done, not to mention the actual criminality which if not for the existence of rich guy justice and the ability of rich people to pay settlements in lieu of criminal charges would have meant multiple fraud indictments for Trump just since he became president.

While Biden's child has taken advantage of his dad's name to lend some crdibility to a shady Ukrainian energy company it was done publicly without a word of reproach from any Republican until a few months ago. If you scroll through the photographs in the link below you can see some of endless cases where the Trump children are currently doing deals that nobody knows anything about, unlike the Biden case. Keep scrolling, there are lots of photos and again this is a select few deals of many that that are ongoing:

I have no idea about Hillary's brother or Kerry's son. I expect anything they did to be negligible compared to the ongoing Trump family dealings.

And once again, none of those people are president. The Trump criminality and private undeclared deals are orders of magnitude above anything on the other side, not to mention illegally and secretly witholding hundreds of millions of dollars of American taxpayer money in order to force a foreign government to open a criminal investigation into Trump's political rival in order to give personal gain to Donald Trump. This is a guy who illegally used his charity to pay the seven dollar joining fee for his youngest son to join the Boy Scouts.
