Michael Hayden: America May Not Survive a Second Trump Term [View all] CousinIT Jul 2019 OP

I agree with him. marybourg Jul 2019 #1

I am beginning to believe handmade34 Jul 2019 #2

This is my fear as well. That we've teetered over some tipping point Maru Kitteh Jul 2019 #7

My fear as well. n/t Different Drummer Jul 2019 #37

Another VERY NOTABLE statement in this conversation from Hayden: CousinIT Jul 2019 #3

Wow .that is just crazy. How in the world could it help him? That has Laura PourMeADrink Jul 2019 #8

Impeachment proceedings should begin, so that all his crimes are known. Bluepinky Jul 2019 #14

Perfectly stated! Laura PourMeADrink Jul 2019 #22

I agree with your post. bdamomma Jul 2019 #53

If not impeachment proceedings then it must be an impeachment inquiry. nt in2herbs Jul 2019 #57

Yes, an inquiry to start. Let's get everything out in the open and take it from there. Bluepinky Jul 2019 #76

People have been wondering aloud about that for some time. Honeycombe8 Jul 2019 #17

Remain quiet for fear people will blame the innocent for calling Laura PourMeADrink Jul 2019 #23

That seems to cover it Bettie Jul 2019 #29

It's absurd Laura PourMeADrink Jul 2019 #35

It is. bdamomma Jul 2019 #55

Trump cheated once to get in office Poiuyt Jul 2019 #11

Yes, too risky to wait for 2020. And a lot of people can be hurt or killed before then. Bluepinky Jul 2019 #16

What are you suggesting be done? You know impeachment won't remove him from office. Honeycombe8 Jul 2019 #18

We need to begin impeachment hearings to expose and publicize all his crimes. Bluepinky Jul 2019 #26

The Senate will never vote to remove him, unless the Democrats get the super majority. Honeycombe8 Jul 2019 #27

Open impeachment hearings. Impeachment is about the rule of law, not politics. Bluepinky Jul 2019 #30

Nadler fainted at the microphone. They are at their peak of handling these things. Honeycombe8 Jul 2019 #31

I don't know the answer either, but we need to put a check on this President. Bluepinky Jul 2019 #32

Impeachment does not "put a check" on Trump. Honeycombe8 Jul 2019 #41

If he's impeached and voted out of office, that will put a check on him. Bluepinky Jul 2019 #78

If impeachment investigation is opened, Dems will have access to whatever documents they ask for Bluepinky Jul 2019 #82

I disagree. I think impeachment will have a huge impact on the electorate in the upcoming election Bluepinky Jul 2019 #88

he's got Putin in his corner. bdamomma Jul 2019 #56

impeachment would not help get him elected Skittles Jul 2019 #24

That's what you THINK. No one knows. It WILL rev his base, and give him justification.... Honeycombe8 Jul 2019 #28

His base is already revved up durablend Jul 2019 #33

As are we. Honeycombe8 Jul 2019 #40

Do you know for 100% certain that Bettie Jul 2019 #36

No. That was exactly my point. Except we do know for sure that impeachment won't remove him. Honeycombe8 Jul 2019 #39

There are already investigations going on. Honeycombe8 Jul 2019 #45

It would allow access Bettie Jul 2019 #46

Well, given that he keeps "joking" about Bettie Jul 2019 #51

there will be a confrontation if he dissolves any sort of free society. bdamomma Jul 2019 #59

I've avoided watching it Bettie Jul 2019 #60

Yep. Making my newly minted adult son Bettie Jul 2019 #85

The House oversight committee IS investigating criminality. Impeachment is POLITICAL. Honeycombe8 Jul 2019 #66

Light will help those who don't pay a great deal of attention Bettie Jul 2019 #68

Right. That's what the investigations might do....get him indicted when he leaves office. Honeycombe8 Jul 2019 #69

Do you honestly believe that the election will be Bettie Jul 2019 #70

No. If we win by a large margin, we might overcome the rigging. One argument that makes sense ... Honeycombe8 Jul 2019 #73

That argument is the thing I fear Bettie Jul 2019 #74

The coverage - that's true. Honeycombe8 Jul 2019 #75
