Trump Acquitted Again: What Comes Next?

As you know by now, Donald J Trump was acquitted yet again for shampeachment. The result was never in doubt. We all knew there was zero chance the Democrats would get enough Republicans to cross over to get the necessary 67 votes. Seven did cross over, and the Louisiana Republican party has already voted unanimously voted to censure Bill Cassidy for voting to convict. I’m wondering if the NC GOP will do the same for Richard Burr, but, he says he’s not running in 2022.

So, what comes next? CNNLOL points out all the legal nutbaggery aimed at Trump from hardcore leftists in leftist states (obviously, they didn’t put it that way, but, that’s exactly what it is). I wouldn’t be surprised if the Democrats attempted to censure Trump next week, even though this whole shampeachment seemed more like censure. Charles Hurt thinks the moonbats will try something different

After Impeachment Farce Ends, Next Comes 14th Amendment

Move OnWith the result of the second impeachment charade a forgone conclusion in Washington, let us now turn to the final partisan tool remaining in Democrats’ torture closet: The 14th Amendment.

This amendment allows Congress to banish from future federal office any current or former politician deemed by congress to have “engaged in insurrection.” Its adoption after the Civil War was designed to prevent officers or political leaders of the Confederate regime from being elected to Congress or the presidency.

In a normal world, it would be impossible for Congress to punish a man for engaging in “insurrection” after Congress had just acquitted the same man of engaging in the same insurrection. Or, as Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer recently called it on the Senate floor, “inciting the erection.”

But this is Washington and the man in question is former President Donald Trump, whose Latin name is Swampus Horribilis.

Gripped by hatred and fear of their long, partisan nightmare, Democrats in Congress today seek “unity” by heaving Mr. Trump into the dustbin of the Confederacy. In this name of “unity,” what precisely does that mean for the 74 million current Americans who just voted for this modern-day Jefferson Davis?

To be sure, it is a rusty, gnarly hatchet. But when all you have is a hatchet, everything is plump flesh and brittle bone. And hack away they will!

In the name of “unity.”

They are so fearful of Trump, and so full of TDS, that it is not out of the realm of reality, not a conspiracy theory, to think that Democrats will go down this route. I think there’s little chance Trump will run in 2024: he’ll be older, and I bet he’ll have moved on, and so will Melania. He may well be the king maker for the GOP primary, and Republicans had best have learned the lessons of the Trump era: defend yourself and your policies voraciously. You do not have to turn the amp up to 11 as Trump did (and, I’ve criticized him over this) and need to dial the attacks back on your own party, but, you can’t be a “get along go along” Republican anymore, not when Democrats are free to ditch the civilized part of the old saying “politics is a dirty, nasty business with a veneer of civility on top.” Republican need to get tough.

As for Dems and Trump, will the Dems move on this week, or continue with TDS? We’ll know soon enough.

BTW, there’s video of Pelosi going bat guano insane below the fold

    The Democrats already have miles of fencing and 5,000 National Guard troops surrounding the Capitol; what do they have to fear if Donald Trump runs in 2024? Either:

    1 – If he loses, they’ll simply keep the fences and deploy 25,000 more troops, so there won’t be a repeat of the Capitol kerfuffle; or
    2 – What they really fear, he wins. The Democrats already know that their policies are going to piss off a whole bunch of people, and angry voters put President Trump in office in the 2016 election, and could well do it again in 2024.

    I am old enough to remember when Democrats showed occasional flashes of sanity.

    And if you make nasty comments about my age, I’ll smack you with my cane.

    • Dana says:

      I, too, am old enough to remember that, and while I don’t use a cane, I am . . . elderly.

      But the Democrats today are the captives of the #woke, and while the older heads, including President Biden, have in the past shown at least a few signs of maturity, they are currently riding the tiger, not in control, but hanging on for dear life.

      Even Kamala Emhoff didn’t used to be this bat guano nuts! Remember, she was a prosecutor in the Pyrite State, and put away the thugs when she could. Now, she’s gone full on #BlackLivesMatter, because the squadristi have become their base.

      The problem arises when the Democrats can’t give the socialists what they want, because there’s no such thing as a free lunch.

    Teach asks:

    What Comes Next?

    First, Benghazi-like investigations by Congress into the run-up to Jan 6 and the actual attack. Second, DOJ investigations into trump crimes. Third, realignment of the GOP – becoming either the tRumpublican Party or to return to the principles of conservatism, patriotism and Americanism.

    And since it’s now perfectly legal for US presidents to send out violent hit mobs, Mar a Logo may need to upgrade their defenses.

      Mr Dowd tries to tell us what comes next:

      First, Benghazi-like investigations by Congress into the run-up to Jan 6 and the actual attack.

      More like the Democrats’ investigation into Russia, Russia Russia! which wasted a year, gobs of money, and produced a nothingburger.

      What’s that you say, it wasn’t a nothingburger? After all of the Democrats’ and the Mueller Report, and a Democratic Party wanting something, anything, on which to impeach the President, not a single thing from the Mueller Report was actually used in the first impeachment!

      Second, DOJ investigations into trump crimes.

      Another thing that will produce nothing. I know, I know, the left believe that the evil Donald Trump simply must be a crook, but, fact is, he’s got thousands of very good lawyers, and they kept everything on the legal side, because that’s what lawyers do.

      Third, realignment of the GOP – becoming either the tRumpublican Party or to return to the principles of conservatism, patriotism and Americanism.

      The GOP elites would love to see a return to the days of them being able to tell the voters what to do, but it’s not ‘Trumpism,’ but populism which has swayed Republican voters. Mr Trump was the last guy the GOP elites wanted to win the nomination; they were invested in Marco Rubio or Jeb Bush, insiders they believed could win and still not rock the boat too much. It turned out that Republican primary voters had a different idea.

      Ted Cruz and Josh Hawley are already burnishing their populist credentials, and Kristi Noem and he refusal to trample on the constitutional rights of the people of South Dakota will have a strong chance, too. Another, unknown candidate might step up. Donald Trump will be 78 come 2024, and he’s obese and eats like crap; I have my doubts that he’ll be healthy enough for a strong run in 2024, but you never know.

        What Elwood wants (and most of the former Democrat Party) are communist-style “Show Trials”. You know the ole Laventliy Beria “show me the man and I’ll show you the crime” type fascist shit. Bear in mind Beria himself was executed by firing squad which is what I really think Elwood and his anti-American fascist ilk really want.

        He keeps whining about supposed “crimes” but it’s all Kabuki theatre crap. Once he dialed it up to eleven with the “insurrection” nonsense over a friggin’ riot which his God forsaken rat infested team of BLM communists and Antifa fascists were ACTUALLY doing all summer I knew he was so full of shit it’s not worth reading his comments. Hell, they even created an “autonomous zone” with ARMED guards and if that ain’t insurrection then what is? The clowns rioting at the Capitol weren’t even armed!!!

        That’s what Elwood gets for stealing an election like a commie banana republic.

      If he’s such a “loser” why are you all spending so much time worrying about him instead of doing something constructive for the American people. We know you’re all scared shitless because one fukup and the entire house of cards you built on lies, corruption and election fraud will come tumbling down and that will be the end of the fascist wing of what’s left of the Democratic Party.

      Why are you all so committed to “indictments”? For what, being President and beating Hillary? Is that what this bullshit is all about? When a President leaves office all this shit should be put to bed. We don’t hound our leaders, their families and associates OR their supporters because they lost even when you cheated.

      You clowns are making Trump a bigger martyr than we could ever have done ourselves!!! Thank you very much assholes. America is watching and we will know what to do for the next time.

      • Elwood P. Dowd says:

        Actually, President Biden and his administration is pushing ahead policies related to Covid, climate change, aid to Americans and foreign policy.

        There is still no evidence to support trump’s treasonous Big Lie that the election was stolen from him. That Lie led to the attack on America Jan 6. Even Sen Minority Mitch McConnell understands that. McConnell drew a line in the sand – on one side tRumpublicans, on the other common-sense conservatives. McConnell bitch-slapped tRump pretty good. tRump watched as his foot soldiers chased VP Pence for disobeying tRump’s order to overturn the election. This needs to be put on repeat until even conservatives understand. What would have happened if the mob had captured VP Pence or Speaker Pelosi? Mitt Romney?

        tRump won the election in 2016. Clinton conceded the next day, congratulating trump on his victory. Why? Because Clinton believes in America. tRump does not.

        tRump and his minions are scared shitless that tRump’s actions both before and during his presidency will be investigated by the DOJ and states. President Biden and his staff will continue working for America, eschewing golf trips, while letting others worry about the biggest loser, DJ tRump.

        • drowningpuppies says:

          “Handling a pandemic is hard work.” Lucky for Joe Biden, he’s discovering his predecessor did most of the heavy lifting.

          Mr. Biden ran on two big promises. One was national unity, which he has redefined as Republicans agreeing to his agenda. The other was to “get control of the virus that’s ruined so many lives”—enabled, he says, by the Trump administration and “the worst performance of any nation on earth.” He would do this by “finally” imposing “a plan” to get the economy running, schools open, vaccines distributed.

          The new administration has spent every minute talking coronavirus. Yet 90% of its energy has gone to trashing its predecessor and resetting expectations, not to any sweeping policy change. Logistically, it would seem Mr. Biden inherited a fine plan after all. In the few areas where he might actually force improvement—notably reopening schools—the president has whiffed…”

    More bad news for the fascists: they reached enough votes to recall Gavin Newsome. I guess there are some Californians who actually don’t like being told what to don and who to do it with twenty-four hours a day by a fascist nut-job.

    I signed a petition this morning to recall that faggot Pat Toomey for whom I voted! He voted with the fascist left then throw him out. That’s not why I voted for him.

    • Elwood P. Dowd says:

      You DO realize that “faggot” is a slur, right? Do you think tRump has only abused women? New York Military Academy ring a bell? Does that make tRump a “faggot”?

      You DO realize there is no constitutional mechanism for recalling a US Senator, right? You should sign hundreds of petitions! Recall Nancy Pelosi, John Roberts, Biden, McConnell. You could even start the RRA, the RINO Recall Act!

      But what are you going to do about Big John Fetterman running for the open Senate seat? A thoughtful, gun-toting, populist, straight-talking Dem. Referring to dj tRump, he said, he’s “no different from any other random internet troll”. LOL

      Did you vote for Senator Toomey for him to support tRump, regardless?

      • drowningpuppies says:

        BTW, Rimjob, where were all of those “witnesses” that you and the rest of those Demofags promised to produce to convince the Senate to find Mr. Trump guilty of “inciting an insurrection”?

    “Did you vote for Senator Toomey for him to support tRump, regardless?”

    Absolutely not! Only leftist demofascists insist on supporting their corrupt, immoral, illegal and in some cases senile leaders “regardless”. That’s why not one single demofascist had the balls to vote not to impeach Trump.

    I mistakenly said “recall” when I meant impeached for Toomey. But that isn’t the point, now is it? And yes I would sign petitions to impeach every one of those losers you listed. Excuse me, I meant faggots.

    I don’t prescribe to hate speech, I prescribe to Free Speech! So go fuk yourself.

    • Elwood P. Dowd says:

      nuCons consistently conflate “license” with “freedom”. You can say pretty much anything you wish, but it’s not always wise or proper. What is the Traitor family going to do next? Excuse me, I meant Trump family.

      You signed a petition to impeach Senator Toomey? Do you think there are votes in the House to impeach him? Good luck. You might have more luck supporting an attack on a joint session of Congress and burning the place down with Senators and Representatives inside. Warn the tRumpublicans first, though.
