With the revelation of Burr playing Nunes on the Senate side, impeachment is off the table... [View all]

There are no honorable Republicans. It doesn't matter what tRump does. There is no way the Republicans will vote to impeach tRump or even take the impeachment proceedings seriously. They will make a farce out of the proceedings just as they are making out of all the hearings. These Republicans have no shame. tRump can shoot someone on 5th Avenue and they will still support him.

I've been all for impeachment until now. But since seeing in the Mueller report that Burr was a back channel to the White House and the Senate Intelligence Committee, with all the show of bipartisanship between Burr and Warner, I'm now against it. Burr has no honor.

The only thing that will take tRump down before the elections is for someone to find the pee tapes.
