Don't fire until you see the whites of their eyes.

Reported last December in "The Atlantic." new reports are surfacing that Trump plans on invoking The Insurrection Act to deploy troops to control illegal immigration inside the country. I'm guessing the next step would be declaring martial law.

Democrats are bringing a knife to a gun fight. When are our presidential candidates going to take on Trump?

How soon before the Trump administration defies a federal court order? It won't matter since soon the courts will be packed with fascists. 1 in 6 federal judges has been appointed by Trump.

Impeachment is still on the table.

other elected office in this country.

Impeach him if we got to but don't accomplish it too much before the election. President Pence, anyone? Not me.

it's about starting impeachment hearings. Impeachment hearings carry more clout with the courts.

So even though Trump has committed high crimes and misdemeanors, has obstructed justice, has been named as a co-conspirator to a felony, we should ignore all of that and hope that we get a fair election a year and a half from now? Russia and rigged voting machines got Trump elected once, I bet they will try again.
