(14,565 posts)Lots of luck. Sure it has happened, and there may be overwhelming reasons why the original trial was flawed and produced the wrong verdict. That doesn't begin to threaten the uphill severity.
As always, I'm not impressed by outliers as opposed to the rule. There is an exponentially greater chance that Donald Trump serves 8 years as president than being impeached, at any point.
Obviously that won't win any popularity contests around here. Somebody has to be the handicapper and not the cheerleader. I've been reading all these winding high profile threads, like the one projecting Comey's impact in today's testimony based on some long ago exchange with somebody else. I had to laugh at the absurdity. That's simply trying too hard and failing to identify the big picture.
On sports forums I use the term Happy Adjuster. I take some heat for it. Happy Adjusters make something whatever they want it to be. Offseason football is priceless for Happy Adjusters. Instead of the bottom line reality of the season itself they can use stats or whatever to twist and turn any player into vastly underrated or vastly overrated. Hilarious. There are several guys who have seized the moment and realized there is a market for it, like a guy named Cian Fahey. He molds every player in the league. The suckers eat it up.
Then September rolls around. Whoops. What happened to those adjustments? Why is Brady still great and Tannehill still mediocre?
We have many more Septembers with Donald Trump in the White House. I'm not going to waste energy and stress pretending he'll resign or be adjusted out of office or manage anything other than one outrageous deceitful decision after another.
