Pelosi Blasts Trump For Firing Vindman And Reminds Him He’s Still Impeached Forever


Speaker Nancy Pelosi called the firing of Lt. Col. Vindman sad and shameful but reminded Trump that he would be impeached forever.

Speaker Pelosi said in a statement provided to PoliticusUSA:

Lieutenant Colonel Vindman has proven to be an American patriot: on the battlefield when he earned a Purple Heart, and in the House trial when he spoke truth to power. His brave testimony showed America that right still matters.

President Trump is impeached forever. The shameful firing of Colonel Vindman was a clear and brazen act of retaliation that showcases the President’s fear of the truth. The President’s vindictiveness is precisely what led Republican Senators to be accomplices to his cover-up. The firing of this patriotic soldier is a sad and shameless loss for America’s security.

History will remember Lieutenant Colonel Vindman as an American hero.

Trump’s Friday night massacre is all about trying to get revenge against those who testified against him at the impeachment hearings. Trump also thinks that he can get his impeachment expunged.

Speaker Pelosi was right. Trump’s actions were shameful. Col. Vindman is a hero, and Donald Trump is still impeached.

1. Reminding him he is impeached forever, over and over again like that,

is getting under his skin, BIG TIME. I'm so glad she is doing that. Sooner or later, all of the temper tantrums he can pitch will have been pitched and even his supporters, at least in government, will begin to see what a petulant, spoiled brat of an overgrown child he really is.

Damn, she's good.

10. +1000

I hope we all just keep this out in the open and label him with it forever. Impeached Forever!

[crickets]

15. Yes indeed! nt

2. Col Vindman left the field with honor and Moron is forever impeached.

Nothing that creep can do will change who is the better man and American.

, Colonel.

4. Col Vindman a man of honor

Trump a man with no honor. One man who is a real patriot and one who has sold America out.

3. Speaker Pelosi consistently speaks profound truths.

We are so fortunate to have her as House speaker. And also American hero Lt Colonel Vindman.

5. Im wondering now if he really cares...

It gives him excuse to be as petty as he wants to be.

He’s using impeachment/acquittal like a trophy. And as justification for being a complete ass.

7. Not Jackson, but Andrew Johnson who was impeached

13. AH duh - thanks! ;)

6. Forever is a long time

But at least we can confidently, accurately, and repeatedly refer to Trump forever as a corrupt, failed, impeached president.

8. The constitution grants the power of impeachment to the House of Representatives.

Once impeached, the Senate holds a trial.

That's it. That's all there is to impeachment. The constitution does not grant a power to "unimpeach" or to"expunge impeachment".

One is impeached and then one is put on trial. If found guilty, one is removed from office. Either way, impeachment happened and that bell cannot be unrung.

9. Cowards.

"The President’s vindictiveness is precisely what led Republican Senators to be accomplices to his cover-up."

When the congress is filled with morally and intellectually weak sell-outs, this is what we end up with.

11. I'm afraid it's only the beginning...

I'd bet they try to purge the government of anyone who's even remotely anti-trump. Rule by fear is the only thing the orange jackass knows.

12. LTC Vindman is a hero

Republicans are cowards.

Keep pounding this every day until November 3rd.

Flush all the turds on November 3rd.

[malaise]

14. I can't wait to see the fall of Don the Con

and it will happen -vile does not describe him.

[Hermit-The-Prog]

16. pity the Republicans don't have someone brave to stand behind...

Lots of Democrats stood up, individually and together, to confront the unfit, impeached one. Speaker Pelosi and the House managers all tried to provide a protective shield to the Republicans, but only one was brave enough to come forward to confront their abuser. McConnell was just too weak and cowardly to lead his caucus to safety.

17. Adam Schiff

warned the party of tRump, that he will not stop. They did not listen.

Then they came...…………….sigh.
