Who does Bob Corker think he's fooling?

[blitzen]

Tells Jake Tapper that Trump should not be impeached because his cult would rally around him and give him a boost for 2024. He forgot to mention that if he's impeached and convicted he would never be eligible to run for a federal office again.

1. Giving cover like he always does.

[Tree-Hugger]

2. Exactly

I was screaming that at my TV.

[LakeVermilion]

3. Considering his age

and his physical condition, the odds of him being able to conduct a campaign aren't in his favor.

Also: He'll probably be short about 30,000 voters, who should be convicted of felony insurrection.

4. its a 2 fer

Impeachment and removal from office are one charge the 2nd is barring from office 2 separate votes

[Demsrule86]

5. He isn't going to be convicted.

[Celerity]

6. conviction is not enough, they need to do a second vote to ban him for life

it only needs to be a simple majority though

but convictions and thus removals sometimes are not followed by a ban

Alcee Hastings for instance

impeached, convicted and removed as a Federal judge, but not banned, and has been in Congress for almost 30 years straight now

7. Yeah well Bob, newsflash....you're no longer a senator

No one gives a rats ass what you think...about Trump or anything else

[live love laugh]

8. He forgot nothing. nt

[Kablooie]

9. If he is NOT impeached his cult will rally around him and give him a boost for 2024.

Opposite world is strong with these people.

10. Disqualify Trump

Disqualifying Trump from holding future office can and should happen. There should at least be the votes in the Senate for that. Check out this article from the Guardian from yesterday:

11. They don't

The are afraid they will have to publicly vote yea or nay and it will be on record
