Navarro says impeachment 'did violence' to Trump: 'Let the man leave peacefully with his dignity

"White House trade adviser Peter Navarro revealed on Thursday that he's "never been more pissed off" after the U.S. House of Representatives made President Donald Trump the first president in history to be impeached twice.

During an interview with Fox Business host Maria Bartiromo, Navarro addressed Trump's second impeachment, which came after the president incited a violent insurrection on Capitol Hill.

"What happened yesterday was a travesty," Navarro opined. "The Democratic Party did violence to this country by attacking a president who I believe was legally elected on Nov. 3. If the election was held today, he'd be elected again. And if he runs in 2024, he will be elected then."

"I've never been more pissed off in my life," he continued. "And I think there's 74 million Americans who voted for President Trump, who feel exactly the same way. So I would say to these people on Capitol Hill, knock it off. Stop this. Let the man leave peacefully with his dignity."

He spent two months claiming that he won an election that he clearly lost, did everything that he could to try to steal it, including pressuring state officials, and whipped his followers into a violent frenzy.

His actions culminated in his incitement of a violent insurrection against the entire Congress as they were doing the final certification of the election.

He always had the choice to leave peacefully and with dignity. He consistently rejected that path. It's a little late for him to suddenly want it now.

Like that was ALL the voters. Like 81 million OTHER voters voted for Biden/Harris. They are so deluded in their right wing media echo chamber that some (not Navarro or Trump, or any other GOP leader) actually believe that their 74 million is a winning number.

They are pitiful but mostly, these asshats like Navarro are cynical and scamming the gullible.

Trump already has volunteers on staff who can demonstrate. If you need elaboration, Petey, they can oblige you.

He tried eleventy-million different angles to overturn the election, whipped up a cult army with lies, and pointed them at the heart of the nation to terrorize and/or physically harm our leaders. I think he's getting off far too easy. I think he should be in jail, his money gone and his life in smoking ruins.

but he didn't. Pence wouldn't 25A him, which was a soft landing for him. So, he got impeached.

Our wish now is to convict him in a Senate trial. That will prevent him from ever holding office again. He isn't fit, and never was. If he had had a patriotic heart, he could have learned how to be President. But, he was in it for the money and power.

The only dignity to spare is for the actual office of the President, and not for this bozo. Joe will be here shortly.

Honestly, I don't give a RA for an insurrectionist who got six people killed, and many more injured. It is only because the Guard finally was able to appear that we didn't end up with perhaps an entire Congress killed. That is what he did, and you reap what you sow. Kick him to the curb.
