They have no war room, no contradictions, NOTHING!N YEA NANCY! MSNBC has a guest on now saying the WH was caught flat footed on this. I'll tell you what...I've been smiling all day today. It's been a long time that I've felt hopeful for our Country. I've listened to all the news reports and I'm convinced HE'S GONE!!!! I will celebrate more than I have in a very long time when this JA leaves the WH!

(82,849 posts)Made easier with a light heart. But we have to keep working. This isn't even close to over. Not even close to the end of the beginning. No, we've taken the first few strides in a marathon, and we need to push harder. Talk up impeachment. Have Democrats' backs in conversations, in letters to the editors, in town halls. If someone is working on something that isn't really your cup of tea, at least stay out of their way while you do your own thing. We're all in this. Together.

(34,661 posts)Trump was counting on Schumer to slow walk Pelosi. Well that was a major mistake. As the Speaker has mentioned,she was one of the original drafters of the Whistle Blower Statute.
And the Speaker said,Trump will Impeach himself.

(90,335 posts)... but is no doubt impeachable.
Soliciting a foreign government to get involved in our elections by digging up dirt on a potential political opponent is impeachable

(32,080 posts)I'm sure they grossly underestimated her, and thought they were smarter than her. Also, Trump really is that stupid, and he surrounds himself with stupid people, none of whom have any clue as to how the government works. Stupidity and arrogance. Not a good combination, and it's blowing up in their faces.

(32,634 posts)That was long before Adam Schiff got any word about it. Chump & the White House lawyers had plenty of time to cover their tracks, and that's probably why the transcripts went into the "secret" national security server.
So why were they caught flat-footed? None of them have any excuses really, except stupidity and laziness.
Nancy was right, Chump will impeach himself while we sit back and watch.

(45,806 posts)impeachment! They grossly underestimated her. She waited for him to do something stupid and easy enough for the American People to understand it's illegality. He foolishly gave her an impeachable offense, but almost all the proof needed to do it! I'm still shocked that he released the phone call info and the contents of the investigators charges. I know he's stupid, but that was REALLY dumb!

It doesn't surprise me at all that he thought he could keep getting away with this.

(21,675 posts)is why exactly Barr decided to jump on board the Trump ship? Was he intent on being in the history books (because he will be)? Did he decide to make this his swan song?
