4. I think he is too.

I trust the historians over most pundits because they can see the big picture and put everything in perspective.

6. Impeachment Ticket is now my computer wallpaper...tks..n/t

[Dennis Donovan]

7. The Trump impeachment ticket will be one I camp out for...

...last time I did that was for The Who, 1982.

[asiliveandbreathe]

10. We will see you there...our last time camping out was for President Obama Mesa AZ

Feb 2009..all night and it was cold....we got tickets and I still have the stub...

8. And Trump could truthfully claim HUGE tv ratings.

[UniteFightBack]

9. All aboard the impeachment train! It's a slow roller and there are a lot of stops....but we all

know where this ends. Pay close attention to the CONDUCTOR since she knows the track well and she can see the last stop.

[peggysue2]

11. Nice analogy/metaphor!

Will hold up well, methinks. And yes, pay close attention to Madame Conductor. She does, indeed, know the track and every stop along the way.

22. made me think of CSN

All Aboard

[Bayard]

12. I love Beschloss

Historian extraordinaire!

[TalenaGor]

13. they sell tickets for this sort of thing? weird lol

[dsc]

17. Not sell give out

[TNNurse]

15. Think how much people would pay to see Trump impeached.

[pdsimdars]

16. I'll bring some popcorn to this one.

[sop]

18. Trump will sell tickets to his own impeachment Hearings and pocket the money

No wonder he's so eager to be impeached, he needs the cash. I wonder if that, too, is a violation of the Emoluments Clause?

[Totally Tunsie]

21. ...and Junior will be selling the popcorn.

[Hekate]

23. ROFL. Write to your Senators inquiring about advance reservations

They're free, but you'll have to get in line, as it were. Hubby and I were visiting friends in DC while Bill Clinton was being impeached, and we found that each senator was given a few passes for their constituents to disburse as they chose. One of our Senators signed out her passes for the entire day, which reduced the participants considerably. Our other Senator, in exchange for your driver's license, would sign the pass out to you for an hour or so, allowing more people to witness what was going on.

Anyway, I'm teasing about advance reservations, but to would be kind of funny to nudge them like that.
