Jim Jordan Crashes And Burns At Trump Impeachment Hearing


Rep. Jim Jordan (R-OH) was supposed to be Trump’s ringer at the impeachment hearing. Instead, he fell flat on his face.

Rep. Jordan hung his hat on the claim that there was no direct linkage between the people involved, Trump, and the withholding of Ukraine military aid.

Jordan tried to use a clarification from Gordon Sondland to discredit Bill Taylor, but what happened was that Taylor read the clarification and said, “And I think this clarification from ambassador Sondland was because he said he didn’t remember this in his first deposition. He wanted to clarify. Mr. Jordan, the way I read this, he remembers it the same way I do.”

Jordan could only sarcastically reply real clear, as his time expired.

Jordan is the person who was added to the committee because Republicans thought that Devin Nunes couldn’t cut it. They were correct about Nunes. He has been terrible, but Jordan has been even worse, Jordan sounds hysterical with his yelling of facts and attempts to badger witnesses.

Rep. Jordan is obviously at these hearings to get clips on Fox News that will make Trump feel good. Jordan is in over his head, and when he was promoted to the big stage, the Republican from Ohio crashed and burned.

1. Playing to an audience of one.

[olegramps]

69. He sounded like a hysterical adolescent who can't use the family car.

[redstatebluegirl]

70. Or who was just told he did not have the grades

to wrestle.

[Gothmog]

2. Remember that Jordan is too stupid to pass the bar exam

I am so glad that this idiot is not a member of the bar

[Eliot Rosewater]

30. The tea party movement brought us a bunch of dolts.

Most GOP in government now are idiots, but they represent idiots so it sorta makes sense.

[CrispyQ]

3. I just want to punch the smugness right off of Jordan's face.

It's amazing how many punchable faces there are in the GOP.

[Eliot Rosewater]

31. Thank you, finally someone who FEELS what I feel.

[calimary]

61. Take a number.

It’s a fantasy of mine, too. To wipe the smug off his ugly face.

Anybody know who had to give up his/her seat so he could get in?

[Moostache]

35. I tend to feel the same way about ALL sexual predator enablers...

They creep me out and they all have a certain 'deadness' in their eyes, something human is missing from them.
Jordan is infectious human waste.

[The Figment]

54. The "Deer in the Headlights" look of brain death! Nt

[lagomorph777]

37. #1 face for me is Muck Mulvaney.

I've felt that way for years.

[Ms. Toad]

4. Don't underestimate the value of asking, "when did you stop beating your mother?"

questions.

No one (during the time I listened) clearly explained his false dichotomy - aid was restored without a public commitment to investigate Biden - means - Taylor was wrong about the condition being placed on the aid in the first place.

[LiberalArkie]

24. A cousin of mine who was a lawyer asked me that, I said "When I was born"

[dchill]

5. Way to go, "Coach."

[Mme. Defarge]

6. Holy Merde!

Taylor actually seems to be enjoying this!

I think I’m in love.

[tblue37]

17. He finds it hard not to laugh out loud at the idiocy. nt

[MFGsunny]

7. Just wondering .....

... whether he and MF45 share that Adderall??????

hmmmmmmmmmmmmm

The frenetic (if not the unhinged) is strong in that one.

[Marie Marie]

26. Yes, like the poster said, Jordan sounded hysterical. He always does.

[C_U_L8R]

8. He's doing it again

He sure does love the sound of his own yell.

[babylonsister]

9. He sounds unhinged. nt

[C_U_L8R]

12. Clearly, Republicans are afraid of questions.

Because questions lead to truth. Their corruption is visible to the world.

[durablend]

10. He'd probably rather be off molesting....

[dalton99a]

18. +1

[napi21]

11. Every ti,e Jordan opens his mouth. it's to "Badger the Witness". The pubs who keep asking for

courtroom laws should be damn glad they're NOT! Any judge would have slapped them with contempt of court!

[True Blue American]

13. Jordan was added

To the Committee the same day a Referee at Ohio State filed a law suit against Jordan saying he told Jordan what was going on. The ethics committee needs to hit him hard. He covered up sex abuse, is not fit to be in Congress.

[The Genealogist]

14. Jeez, forget all the other -cracies, this is an infantocracy

Republican dipshits mugging for the camera to please their toddler-brained leader on his favorite TV channel. The country is being led by a mental infant and too many of the others in the government have as their primary job to coddle, coo and otherwise soothe him. Disgraceful.

[Hermit-The-Prog]

15. I've heard squawling cats that are easier on the ears.

[coti]

16. "...No more questions."

[chriscan64]

19. Slightly off topic but,

How is it that a restaurant can have a dress code requiring a tie & jacket but the US Congress allows his slovenly appearance?

[Delphinus]

34. Welcome to DU!

And, great question.

[chriscan64]

51. Thanks

They should have one on standby like the Friars Club in that episode of Seinfeld where Jerry had to wear the house jacket with the big patch on the front. "Oh you poor thing you forgot your jacket. Here ya go."

[DesertRat]

59. Great reference! lol

I remember that episode. Welcome to DU!

[Hekate]

40. IIRC, the dress code demands a suit jacket. But "Gym" Jordan wants to put a thumb in the eye of....

....wait for it....the female Speaker of the House.

So cute. So mature.

[gopiscrap]

43. welcome to DU

[gopiscrap]

68. welcome to DU

[yellowcanine]

20. "Jordan sounds hysterical with his yelling of factoids." There, fixed it.

[geardaddy]

21. Even Boehner said Jordan was "an idiot" and "an asshole"

[budkin]

52. Source? Amazing!

Tell me it's true!

[budkin]

53. Nevermind... Google is my friend

[bdamomma]

22. Gym

is going down too.

[More_Cowbell]

23. Is Jim Jordan balding and combing over, or...

In an error to curry favor with Trump, did he shave his own head and try a wraparound hairdo like Trump?

[lunatica]

32. Both

Because it’s impossible to know what Trump does with his updo. When in doubt cover all bases.

[Delmette2.0]

33. LOL

[CTyankee]

45. That combover really annoys me. I want to snatch his hair and pull it back myself...

[Avis]

25. Why bring up Obama

If Trump should look at the new Ukraine president to determine if he is as corrupt as the
former president, why is Jordan asking about why Obama didn't give the corrupt former president missiles? He can't have it both ways?

[babylonsister]

39. When they have nothing else

to talk about, their fallback is Obama and/or Clinton.

Guess he had no defense.

[marieo1]

27. Absolute idiots

He is another absolute idiot - don't the Reps have anyone that isn't? Every one of them I've heard so far have been absolute asses!!

[JaneQPublic]

28. SNL need only use the Jordan transcript as a script.

But, then, who saw it coming: that a dairy farmer and a wrestling coach would suck at this?

[Zambero]

38. Gymmie could well put their writers out of business

He writes his own nonsensical skits, and today he even donned the same color shirt & tie as the SNL character.

[JaneQPublic]

46. Ain't that the truth! (nt)

[Tommy_Carcetti]

36. Bill Hader's gonna have his work cut out for him on Saturday. nt

[Mendocino]

41. Gym Shorts falls...

...short.

[lastlib]

42. Slight error there:

"...the Republican from Ohio crashed..."

should read, "...the Republican from Pedophilia crashed..."

[zaj]

44. Disagree...

He's doing what he wants to do... tell everyone the story is so confusing that they will just quit paying attention.

He looked very successful in that exchange to me.

[babylonsister]

48. Well, if the audience

saw the diplomats tell their tale and then saw this, I don't know there'd be a question of who to believe. The diplomats were easy to understand, unlike this clown.

[zaj]

49. Few people were watching. Many more will catch the highlights tonight or virally.

Sowing confusion is super easy compared to getting and holding the public attention and managing to get your message across.

[Progressive Jones]

55. FOX will claim that Jordan OWNED Taylor. Hannity will be drooling on camera. nt

[zaj]

57. They have an enormous propaganda machine

[JohnnyRingo]

47. And put on a jacket!

He looks like a goddam wrestling coach. He's embarrassing the Buckeye State.

[Generic Other]

50. Evelyn Woods School of Speedtalking

Makes Jordan sound like a fast-talking used car salesman. He just sounded hysterical rushing to get every word out before he got the timer.

[HoosierDebbie]

56. During one of his turns on the mic....

he tried to conclude that 45 was just testing Zelensky to see if he was corruptible. He released the money when he thought Zelensky passed the test.

[Judi Lynn]

63. His pathetic lie is just as stupid as any of Trump's. Even a Republican couldn't believe it. n/t

[warmfeet]

58. I expect nothing less

from a loser of his caliber. The entire party is comprised of losers. Orange ass-wipe is at the top, of course. Biggest loser of all time.

[onetexan]

60. Bill Taylor treated Jordan the proper and only way he could: you can't fix stupid

[Judi Lynn]

62. Most enjoyable headline I've seen in years! Thank you, babylonsister!

[Soxfan58]

64. He did

[duforsure]

65. Jackass Jordon

Did nothing but show his, the Republican Party, and trumps contempt for the truth, and the rule of law. They are claiming extortion, bribery, a cover up, conspiring to obstruct justice and more isn't"t serious enough for removal from office,, but any American doing any of those things would be held accountable by a lengthy prison sentence is not going to win over anyone to there side. They're failing badly, and they and trump are in a downward spiral they can't stop. Trump and republicans are claiming serious felony crimes from a president are acceptable, when it's them. This train wreck trump and the GOP are helping Putin undermine our government with massive corruption, and totally compromised by Putin from it. The longer trumps in office, the more damage he's doing more republicans will be voted out of office. Republicans are now backing a felon, and complicit with trumps crime spree.

[bucolic_frolic]

66. Gymbo Jumbo Jim!

King Kong of Fox News soundbites! RAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!

[moonseller66]

67. New Name for Gym...

JACKETOFF Jim

Just like at OSU.

[dobleremolque]

71. You made me spew coffee all over my computer!
