    When the impeachment trial moves to the Senate, Republicans will call ALL witnesses with no limits to what questions to ask. I look forward to Joe Biden and Hunter Biden being subpoenaed to answer questions on their Ukraine activities. Democrats cannot continue to protect Joe Biden and his son, Hunter.

    No.Not as detestable as Trump though.

    Reagan also won the popular vote and had good approval ratings so Dems worked him because its what the people wanted and its who the people chose to be their president.

    Blahahahaha...Bullshit. One, I doubt you were even alive let alone being of voting age when Reagan was in office. Democrats hated Reagan, fought him tooth and nail over everything. Many Republicans were against him as well first couple of years.

    The Carter administration was abysmal.

  4. Quite so.

    The other thing to keep in mind is that some of these witnesses have been or could have been questioned for 8-10 hours straight. I have not watched it enough to say, but some of them have been put through very long sessions.

    Joe Biden would be seriously confused and disoriented after 8-10 minutes let alone 8-10 hours. One of the tards here may rise to counter that, but no one in their right mind doubts it for a minute. And the republicans should make maximum, unconstrained effort to reduce Biden to rubble, knowing that the general public is watching every move of Joe to assess whether he is the one to stand up to Trump. They should inflict maximum pain on to him and on to Hunter without guilt. The dems are the ones who wanted to proceed with this scam.

    Y'all will recall that at one time Robert Mueller was expected to be the biggest swinging dick in the country. But after proper questioning in public, it was revealed that he was lost in space. You would not hire that clown to represent you in court now on anything, anywhere. "Reduce him to rubble." That should be the operating guideline for members in regard to their questioning of Biden. Go as long and as hard as you need to. Show him the same level of concern that they are showing for Trump as they put him and this country through this scam.

    You're pal said Reagan and Tip worked together though

    Some Dems did not like Reagan but some did and he wasn't nearly as hated as Trump

  6. Trump has done a terrible job of getting rid of Obama loyalists. In some cases when he did get rid of them, he replaced them with NeverTrumpers, so the improvement was minimal.

    Another problem is that many of them have civil service or military service protection so you can move them out of a job but it's difficult to fire them. The dems are experts at embedding their political hires in civil service jobs before they leave office.

    The best solution is a big budget cut for the most problematic departments, eg State, CIA and Justice.

    In Trump's defense, it would be hard pull people out of a single wide with no teeth and put them in those positions, which make up most of the non never Trumpers.

    As it came up in Ms Cooper's testimony at the moment. Bone Spur's failure to notify Congress about withholding appropriated monies intended for Ukraine violated the Impoundment Control Act of 1974.

    This was created because Nixon abused power in a similar hold on aid. Anyway, not for the cons but may be of interest to normal people.
