"Once you fart on something, it's yours. It's in the Constitution."

It's difficult to believe that it could still be part of the plan after he came out and condemned people for participating in a "riot" he incited, but we'll see, I guess.

I think he was referring to the majority of congress when he condemned people.

I don't know if you heard this statement, but it certainly sounds like an attack on his own supporters for doing what he told them to do.



Maybe this was just a prepared statement from the establishment traitors still surrounding him and doesn't really represent his true sentiment.

Anyway, I already reaffiliated as Independent yesterday due to the disgusting turncoat reaction from pretty much the entire mainstream Republican establishment. I'm not sure who they are trying to save face with exactly, but I won't be supporting any of it any longer after this betrayal. Even if it amounts to just handing it all to the Democrats uncontested, let it burn.

His own skin comes first.

If he would be found guilty of having incited a state coup attempt, thats high treason and prison.

Even his fashist friends understand that. Thats what dogwhistling is for. (To indicate - I have to say it, but - my friends *signal,signal* - I dont really mean it.)

"To all of my wonderful supporters, I know you are disappointed but I also want you to know that our incredible journey is only just beginning." Wtf. Cult much? These people are just incredibly bizarre. If they continue past the 20th, I wouldn't be surprised if Trumpers get labeled as a terrorist group.

I wanna say 25th amendment simply because I think it'd be really funny for Pence to be president. He's been vying for the position his whole career and him finally getting it but only for a few days before Biden takes office is a hilarious idea. Like giving a child a toy they've wanted for years but not actually letting them use it and they have to give it away only a few days after they get it.

It's a long shot that anything beyond leaving on the 20th will happen. I'm certain he will be impeached for a second time, but it'll likely go nowhere as far as the Senate goes. Most republicans know it's still suicide to take any steps to remove Trump, as they'll want his supporters on their side for future elections. So the democrats will move to impeach, the republicans will either ignore it or vocally disagree, and he'll be out on the 20th whether voluntarily or not.

Either way, he absolutely won't be out of the headlines or your social media feeds.

I believe that Trump will leave office on the 20th without incident. I realize that Congress wants to impeach Trump, but their reason is a single riot in which no buildings were burned or any major looting took place. When you compare a single riot to almost 1 riot per day since last summer in multiple cities across the country all of which have been committed by Liberals, Leftists and Antifa it makes you wonder why Congress decides to act now? Even last weekend Liberal Leftist rioters were in Portland destroying shit, yet none of those hundreds of riots in the past deserved any attention?

It also didn’t help that the Leftist media was glorifying the BLM motivated riots, while justifying the violence, murders, arson and looting. The Leftist media to this day hasn’t called one single BLM/Antifa/Liberal riot a “riot” as they called them “mostly peaceful protests”, but as soon as the Conservatives have a single riot it’s now okay to call it what it is. So it’s fine and dandy that the Left has looted stores, burnt down buildings, taken over parts of various cities, murdered people and destroyed property on hundreds of occasions during the past year, but it’s not okay for the Conservatives to go occupy a building and not burn it down for a few hours?

The hypocrisy and double standards from the Liberals runs deep so I highly doubt the Conservatives in the Senate would vote to impeach Trump even if the Liberals in Congress vote to do so. If people think Trump and the Republicans need to be held accountable over one riot, yet hundreds perpetrated by their side don’t deserve any attention then they have no solid ground to stand on.

he never read the security briefings. he has no knowledge of secret information. the guy is mentally a 5 year old. he is actually incapable of relaying back complex words. no one wants him because he is not valuable.

He already tried planning a golf trip to Scotland, and they told him to basically fuck off. :rofl2:

Per se, the constitution doesn't provide a remedy for a president and/or vice president who categorically refuse to leave office.

After Biden is sworn in then Trump is no longer president. If Trump refuses to leave then he is trespassing and can be removed very easily.

Mike Pence won't be staying on. He appears to have found his backbone.

--------------------- MERGED ---------------------------

The Leftist media to this day hasn’t called one single BLM/Antifa/Liberal riot a “riot” as they called them “mostly peaceful protests”,

Mostly peaceful, with right wing infiltrators who caused a riot to make BLM look bad.

See, we can do it too.

Meanwhile I condemn any looting or destruction of property and all the leftist media I read did too.

I wasn't happy with BLM marches during a pandemic.
I wasn't happy with Biden supporters partying in the street during a pandemic.

Even after the pandemic I would not be happy with terrorists taking guns and bombs along to a protest.

I wasn't happy with BLM supporters damaging statues either.
