Do you think another "impeachable offense" will happen between now and Election Day?

[kentuck]

Will there be another huge bombshell that shows the criminality and cover-up of Donald Trump?

After the Senate acquits him, how long before another scandal hits the news?

If nothing else, Donald Trump is a criminal. It is in his DNA. He cannot stop. He would not stop, even if he could.

So, it's just a matter of time until we are talking about impeachment again. Some people will pretend they never had any idea their president would do such a thing. Some may even feign regret for voting to acquit. Especially if it is just before the election.

[GoCubsGo]

1. No. I think multiple impeachable offenses will happen between now and then.

Including starting a wag-the-dog war on false premises.

[lastlib]

44. THIS!!

[dchill]

51. Unfortunately, you are completely right.

[at140]

52. I hope he does not start a war

but if the current economy falters, that will be his first act.

[ProudMNDemocrat]

2. There is no DOUBLE JEOPARDY when it comes to Impeachmwnt.

Trump is a setial offender when ot comes to abuses like this.

[at140]

54. So long as senate remains republican, through Jan 2021,

I see little chance of conviction and removal before that, regardless of multiple impeachments.

[Retrograde]

60. It's not double jeopary anyway if it's a different crime

Say I rob a bank, am caught, tried, and acquitted. The next week when I rob another bank I can't use the excuse "but I've already been acquitted of bank robbery" at my new trial (unless Giuliani's my lawyer ). So even if the Senate acquits the Orange One of pressuring Ukraine, the House can still impeach him again for pressuring, say, Venezuela or where ever (I'd be surprised if heasn't pulled the "Nice country you got here, shame if anything would happen to it" line with other world leaders).

But I think there are a lot more shady things he's done or is currently doing. And I really want to see Ivanka in front of a Congressional committee explaining just what it is she does to justify her position (we all can dream, can't we?)

[KentuckyWoman]

3. As of today - I'd expect he's done 1059 impeachable offenses. Minimum.

He has no respect for the law, the US Constitution, for Congress, for the Judiciary. Hell, he doesn't even have respect for his own children let alone the rest of the world.

[2naSalit]

4. Just one?

[dewsgirl]

5. I think they happen daily, what we learn in the future will

be absolutely shocking, even to us😳. I take it you mean something worse than this Ukraine mess, I would bet everything on it.

[forgotmylogin]

37. I agree there's likely a lot of stuff we *haven't* heard about. n/t

[DENVERPOPS]

48. I would like to see

some journalist research and write down every single thing that the Repubs have shoved thru, hiding behind the distraction of Trump. It has to be in the thousands by now. The Repubs have very successfully used Trump as an hourly and daily distraction to divert attention (esp the media's attention) away from all the corrupt atrocities they are committing out of sight.............

[rzemanfl]

6. Between now and lunch. K&R. n/t

[Leith]

43. Ya beat me to it

Like others have said, he is committing criminal and impeachable acts all the time.

[Funtatlaguy]

7. It WILL happen, but will we know about it?

[Silent3]

8. Are there any days that end in "y" between now and election day? n/t

[malaise]

9. Is da Pope Catholic?

[A HERETIC I AM]

10. Does a one-legged duck swim in a circle?

[malaise]

11. Am I an old woman?

[Maeve]

12. Does a bear find relief in the woods?

[malaise]

15. Does Don the Con lie like the rest of us breathe?

[Bob Loblaw]

46. Does Howdy Doodie have wooden balls?

[greatauntoftriplets]

23. Damn, that was going to be my line!

So I'll go with does the bear shit in the woods?

[malaise]

25. Maeve took that one

[greatauntoftriplets]

26. That doesn't surprise me at all.

Maeve and I are both Irish so it sort of comes naturally. I may be in recovery from the church, but terms like that stay with you. Er, the indoctrination.

[CousinIT]

13. Many. n/t

[krispos42]

14. I think another impeachable offense will occur...

...before the weekly picture thread hits 100 likes (it's at 85)

[shockey80]

16. There is an impeachable offense happening right now.

Jury tampering.

[genxlib]

17. Will they happen? Yes!

Will we find out about them? Doubtful.

The ultimate outcome of this will be to embolden the lawlessness and encourage the hiding. Screw the press, the subpoenas, the whistle blowers, the independent judiciary, the justice department, etc.

We will get screwed 10 ways to Sunday and will never even find out how.

[Turbineguy]

18. Only

every day.

[CanonRay]

19. I think one happened since you wrote this post.

[Blima]

20. Every day

Trump is corrupt and so is his family.

[spinbaby]

21. I think it will happen before lunch.

[EndlessWire]

59. LOL! n/t

[democratisphere]

22. Probably by tomorrow, Monday!

And everyday thereafter.

[greatauntoftriplets]

24. He's still obstructing justice as I type.

[dalton99a]

27. It is a daily event with him.

[Historic NY]

28. Is Trump breathing?

[UniteFightBack]

29. It ain't a think it's a know. He can't help but commit offenses...of all sorts. nt

[StarfishSaver]

30. Another impeachable offense likely occurred while I was reading your OP

[33taw]

31. I think one happens at least twice a day.

[ThoughtCriminal]

32. Most likely more than the previous three years combined

If he is not removed, he will realize that he really CAN shoot somebody on 5th Ave. and the Senate Republicans will not even protest.

Between unhinged tweetstorms, he will go on an insane Executive Order spree that will be stunning, even to his allies. Scandal on a Biblical Scale.

Prepare yourself for more insanity every day than we would normally experience in a decade.

[Garrett78]

36. His attorneys have already argued that he could murder someone on 5th Ave and not be prosecuted.

In a court of law, they actually told a judge that the police wouldn't have the right to stop him from firing away at people, and that he couldn't be prosecuted.

[Garrett78]

33. Like others, I think he's committing impeachable offenses on a regular basis.

Emoluments, federal records law, etc.

He makes Watergate seem like child's play. And still we can't even get every Democrat on board with impeachment. The world has gone completely mad.

[PatSeg]

34. "He cannot stop. He would not stop, even if he could."

That sums up Trump and it has been the case his entire adult life. If there is a right way or a wrong way of doing things, he will pick the wrong way, even if it doesn't benefit him. He is drawn to anything illegal or corrupt or dishonest. He will lie even if the truth would serve him better and if he gets caught, he doubles down.

Principles and honesty are for losers and Donald Trump will not be a loser.

[barbtries]

35. yes.

of course in my opinion impeachable offenses happen every day.

[Eyeball_Kid]

38. HUH? It's happening as we're breathing. Right now. n/t

[NRaleighLiberal]

39. it is early yet today.

They have, and will happen daily. count on it.

[onecaliberal]

40. Of course. He's doing it daily. There is a lot we don't even know about to be sure.

[Kashkakat v.2.0]

41. Well yeah - multiple offenses occur daily. Dont buy into Repub thing that it has to be some kind

of actual prosecutable crime - not true. General unfitness for office qualifies and is manifested by constant wreckless, inflammatory, taunting statements directed against everyone and anyone incl foreign heads of state, subtle and overt urging of violence against political foes, in general sowing discord and hatreds Other high crimes and misdemeanors that have occurred and will contine to occur: profiting from presidency (forget exact amt its in tens of millions of taxpayer dollars the Cult Leader is spending to vacation at his own properties) and violating campaign finance laws to pay off a porn star. That qualifies, not sure why it wasn't used for #3 article of impeachment. Perhaps Dems are too nice and considered it too unsavory.

[Vinca]

42. Nah, Don is a changed man.

In other news, the Pope has decided to become a Buddhist.

[world wide wally]

45. The Dems on the committee need to address the Pubes questions directly and call out the jurors.

What is the crime?
Bribery. Political dirt on Biden for congressionally approved aid for starters. That is a crime.
Withholding the money illegally.
Perjury. Living through their collective teeth about Trumps intentions.
Of course, the legal team can enumerate more succinctly but the point is to not let their talking points go unanswered. Not even ONE of them.

[bucolic_frolic]

47. Felonies are like parking tickets

you just send in your lawyers and never show up in court

that's impeachment, then dismiss the Congress, declare martial law, suspend the Bill of Rights, cancel elections, privatize the government into crony corporations. Do it because you love America.

[3Hotdogs]

49. Why not. There's one about every other day.

[treestar]

50. Yes. I wonder if only 2 were submitted

so that more and more come up and can be added.

[usaf-vet]

53. Do you think bears are going to continue to S**T in the woods? & Trump will continue tweeting.

[Botany]

55. How about having to pay $2,000,000 penalty for running a scam charity foundation that:

Paid a bribe to Pam Bondi, A.G., Florida to not investigate his scam Trump University

or

Took in millions of dollars to help the vets and kept the money until a Washington Post
article outed Trump's thievery.

[jmowreader]

56. Please tell me you didn't ask that

Donald Trump commits at least one impeachable act a day. Every man should have a goal in life; Trump’s is to become the most corrupt politician in the history of the wotld. And you don’t get that way by not committing impeachable acts.

[shockey80]

57. Trump being alive is an impeachable offense.

[live love laugh]

58. Absolutely. nt
