Trump Acquitted. Again.

| February 13, 2021

Now that the latest DC Kabuki Theater has closed with entirely predictable results, one begins to wonder if the Dems ever intend to declare victory and move on. Or will they continue to press down the Trump rabbit hole? After all, the vote wasn’t a cake walk, and the usual Senate suspects sided with the Dems.

Trump acquitted in second impeachment trial on charge of inciting Jan. 6 Capitol riot

GOP, led by Mitch McConnell, largely sticks with Trump during Saturday verdict
By Marisa Schultz

Former President Trump was acquitted in an unprecedented second impeachment trial on the charge of inciting an insurrection for the Jan. 6 Capitol riot, making him the first and only president to be impeached and acquitted twice in history.

A majority of senators found Trump guilty on Saturday in a 57-43 vote, but the number fell short of the supermajority needed to convict the president. Had Trump been convicted, the Senate would have moved to bar the 45th president from holding federal office ever again.

The seven GOP senators who joined with all Democrats in finding Trump guilty were: Sens. Richard Burr of North Carolina, Bill Cassidy of Louisiana, Susan Collins of Maine, Lisa Murkowski of Alaska, Mitt Romney of Utah, Ben Sasse of Nebraska and Pat Toomey of Pennsylvania.

Susan Collins. Her family owned hardware and building supply stores
are well liked in northern Maine. This will cost them and their employees.
Just re-elected to another term, she will retire and build her library.
Just not with the family lumber.

The Dead Man

Mittens continues to either try to commit career suicide or prove that he’s up to no good. Either or.

And did anyone else love the Democrats dropping the witness approach as soon as Pelosi was called? What’cha got to hide guys? You’re in the right, right?

RINOmney should just become a demo-rat already.

Mason

It can be both. Carpetbagger Mitt can both be committing career suicide and be up to no good.

They cannot let him go, the D-rats are terrified he will help take the House in 2022, and run for President in 2024. The Uni-party (D-rats and RINO’s) want things in the swamp back to normal, with the Deep State running everything and the GOPe acting like the loyal fake opposition. Deep State Uber Alles.

Mason

Spot on about the Uni-party. So happy they came together to get Trump out of office that they openly brag about the secret cabal.

To each his/her own. It is a matter of honor and integrity.
You choose.

SFC D

You’re seeking honor and integrity in the house and senate? Surely you jest!

xyzzy

Can’t speak for MM, but I sure am.

We need decency back in politics.

SFC D

I agree, but with a couple exceptions, you’re not gonna find it it any of the current legislative circus.

MustangCryppie

Now that PDT is out, we can get back to have “decent”, smooth talking lying sacks of shit running the country.

At least Trump did what he said he would do.

It was well described as

“Parliament of Whores”

Mostly in Canada, Sir. Just ask Justin ‘Moistly’ Trudeau!!
At social-distance of course!!!

Honor and integrity are my core values. It is the only thing of value that I have. When I sit down across from someone, I am willing to share mine with them. If they do not want to share…I’ll take theirs and may they have a nice life.

STSC(SW/SS)

If Worf showed up at the capital he would kill most of them because they have no honor.

I kinda wanted to see the #HouseDrinker forced to give sworn testimony under threat of perjury.

Andy11M

I’m sure some Dems think 3rd times the charm

KoB

They will NOT leave it alone. Next step is the ol’ 14th amendment (that part put into place to keep (supposedly) them damn insurrectionist Johnny Reb Corn-federates out of the mid 19th century swamp) Many of them got around that by taking “The Oath”.

They were just trying to get rid of Trump because he was in the way of their real target…The American People. Take back the House in Senate in 2022 and the WH in 2024? Never happen…not now not then. Remember who is counting the votes these days. You will never see a true, fair election, of the people, by the people, or for the people, again.

“You will never see a true, fair election, of the people, by the people, or for the people, again”

I have come to realize that.
We are now Venezuela class stupid.

MarineDad61

26Limabeans,
Democratic Party primary DNC “Superdelegates” ensure it.
Each Superdelegate has the primary voting power of 5000 voters.
Which explains why Bernie Sanders got more popular votes than Hillary Clinton in over a half dozen early 2016 primaries,
but Hillary got more delegates in those states.
Apparently, Democrats don’t mind the RIG. The FIX.
They proved it in 2020,
pulling Joe Biden out of their ass,
while sidelining over a dozen others.

Where’s my Black Bloc and street medic gear? Gonna BURN IT DOWN TONIGHT!!!!

Happy acquittal, left/libtards:

So, why are troops needed in DC for the rest of the year?

Sapper3307

Will it count as a PCS? We might need new ribbons.

SFC D

Does DC count as overseas?

Penguinman000

Occupation medal perhaps?

rgr769

Too bad there were no NG at the Capitol on 1/06. They could seek CIB’s and CAB’s for that one fired pistol shot. It would have been a boon to badge hunters in the NG. Although, we will likely be seeing POSers in a few years claiming they were in combat at The Great Insurrection of 1/06.

11B-Mailclerk

Intimidation.

They want us to know that they mean to rule, and we are to obey and accept.

Ex-PH2

This should spook the Dumbocraps. Their little plan didn’t work, so they have to pull back, regroup and strike again…. and it was supposed to be so easy… and all they’ve done is piss off voters….

I have enjoyed watching this part of the circus. What if we put them in the Coliseum with D. Trummp and his ilk….? Hmmmmm….

The Other Whitey

Pissing off voters doesn’t matter. They now know they can make the vote totals say whatever they want them to. They will keep it up until bullets start flying and necks get noosed.

Slow Joe

I was going to pick on your communist-loving ass, but I remember I am under threat of banning by the mods if I pick on you.

Some days I just cannot resist an easy target.

The Other Whitey

Ah yes, did I ever tell you you’re an asshole, Joe? But let be known that the only person I favor banning is Lars, the actual commie-loving cocksucker.

Slow Joe

Ooppss. You said cocksucker.

Rule number one of the infantry: whoever mentions cocks first, eats a bag of dicks!

The Other Whitey

Fair enough.

Slow Joe

By the way, I do agree with your point.

The Other Whitey

Slainte.

I don’t speak fuckin communist French.

But I see you do.

Was going to say the same thing now that mail in ballots are now the rage among the demoRats.

Jeff LPH 3, 63-66

mitch o says that President Trump can be criminally prosecuted for starting the so called insurection. I was watching Diamond & Silk on NewsMax 1830 hrs and they were showing all the demoRats on video threatening all sorts of stuff to put Pres Trump down.

Hate_me

Invocative of the Jacobins and their guillotine, eh? Look how quickly they turned on Cuomo.

Incidentally, why doesn’t autocorrect recognize “invocative?”

OldManchu

Lars still hasn’t shown up???
Somebody needs to do a health and welfare check.

The Other Whitey

Fuck him. Don’t bother.

Trump’s an idiot.

But what a waste of time and money.

Money that could be used to help feed or house people verses taxpayer-funded travel costs for politicians.

But then again, that “riot” was the closest Dick Blumenthal has ever been to combat. Cant waste that….!

Hope I never see him in office again.

To include about half the Republican and Democratic Parties.

Turds.

Slow Joe

Well, President Trump is not perfect, and he certainly seems to choose the wrong lawyers again and again, but we have to vote for someone or see our Republic go down in flames as a failed experiment.

I vote for President Trump, and very proud of being his supporter. At least he is a patriot and can’t be bought, unlike all the others beside President Reagan.

C2Show

We know bro, you definitely do not need to tell us you love him.

11B-Mailclerk

He seems to want to give anyone a chance, to trust them and thus give them a chance to be trustworthy.

That is so very rare in men. It seems almost unique in politics. Politicians look to own others by threat or debt. He didn’t. Thus, they had to destroy him.

That revolving door is him panning for Gold.

Green Thumb

Agreed.

MarineDad61

It didn’t take much for a local dope
to end up as a part of American History.

He went to D.C on January 6 (which is perfectly fine),
but then did more, inside the Capitol & Senate (not fine),
and ended up being part of the 2021 Impeachment Trial.
On the big screen.
With his blue Hershey Christian Academy sweatshirt.
While an Impeachment Manager made her bloated and faulty case.
And then put the local dope on freeze frame.

It’s all here, in 1 hasty YouTube video.

MRC head and Fox talk guest Brent Bozell (III).

Lesson for the kids….
If you’re going to go places or do things you shouldn’t do,
don’t wear your local school, company, or organization logo gear.

That’s got to be the most lethargic, laid back riot I’ve ever seen (and we have seen plenty this year). Looks more like he was leading a particularly slow tour than “provoking” and “drawing” them. That’s why he had to stop several times to let them catch up with him (as seen in other videos). Too bad “Quiet Riot” is already copyrighted.

Sapper3307

So can we impeach Obama now?
Fair is fair.

OWB

Evidently.

Or maybe not. What this latest display of hypocrisy has shown us is that after being trained in the past coupla years that burning, breaking, stealing and beating up stuff and people is OK now, we discover that that rule only applies to lefties. Same deal with “inciting.” Apparently lefties aren’t responsible for either their words OR their actions.

No, this nonsense is far from over. Lefties love to talk and talk and talk. Solving a problem is never the end game. Talking about it is all they ever want to do, so the talk (and threats) will continue.

Devtun

What’s fair is congresscritters who voted to impeach/convict need to resign. You want to topple the chief? OK, you better succeed, or it’s your job. That would stop these snap drive-by waste of money impeachments

One has to realize that The 7 so called republican A holes who voted against President Trump are career A hole politicians who if they stay in office have to deal with their sweetheart demoRat peeps and not make waves with their new 1,000 year 4th Reich Fuhrer and his social/national party Schutzstaffel enforcers. Am waiting for his peeps to do the Sig Heil salute when he makes a speech. Maybe instead of wasting time with live speeches, just show the 1930, 1940’s videos from the Reichstag which would be the same in 2021.

“”Patriotism means to stand by the country. It does not mean to stand by the President or any other public official save exactly to the degree in which he himself stands by the country. It is patriotic to support him in so far as he efficiently serves the country. It is unpatriotic not to oppose him to the exact extent that by inefficiency or otherwise he fails in his duty to stand by the country. In either event it is unpatriotic not to tell the truth — whether about the President or about anyone else — save in the rare cases where this would make known to the enemy information of military value which would otherwise be unknown to him.”

“The simple truth is that never in our history has any other administration during a great war played politics of the narrowest personal and partisan type as President Wilson has done; and one of the features of this effort has been the careful and studied effort to mislead and misinform the public through information sedulously and copiously furnished them by government officials. An even worse feature has been the largely successful effort to break down freedom of speech and the freedom of the press by government action. Much of this action has been taken under the guise of attacking disloyalty; but it has represented action, not against those who were disloyal to the nation, but against those who disagreed with or criticized the President for failure in the performance of duty to the nation.”

How Good; now let’s see the Senate do something useful.

11B-Mailclerk

The Senate most often does best by accomplishing nothing.

Someone once said “That government is best that governs least”. Obviously, the very best government is the one that does not govern at all.

And, of course, Gideon Tucker said “No man’s life, liberty or property are safe while the Legislature is in session.”
