I don’t know about you all but I’m never voting for Hunter Biden.
Well, I’ve been voting for Hunter Biden for years now.
I haven’t even voted for him once! We must keep Hunter Biden out of office!
Noooooo!
It depends on who Hunter is running against. I can name worse.
The optimist in me wants to say: “yeah, you go girl!”
But the pessimist in me is saying: “cool, so if they’re so bad, who ARE you voting for?”
Out of the options, the lesser of two evils is easier to fight against.
Edit: I don’t actively support Biden. But between the guys who promise to either: A) have made it their purpose to impoverish and delegitimacize everyone but themselves, and the people that, B) are trying to do so without getting caught
I’ll go for the people that don’t want to get caught. They’re at least minimizing the damage they do to the world. 🙄
Extra edit for the dipshits that can’t read properly: I was saying that between the Bidens and the big orange blob and his fanatical cohorts, I’d rather have the Bidens. Y’all think I’m talking shit about the wrong person, and that reading comprehension (or lack thereof) is why I don’t actively support EITHER side because they’re BOTH full of fanatical retards.
I think the most important word in the original post is “Hunter”.
How many times have you voted for Hunter?
I love how you just read whatever you wanted to, and then wrote this scree like we give a fuck what you think, and you’re not even intelligent enough to catch the joke that’s literally one sentence long.
He would also have to have actually done any of the accused actions.
No, if they have the votes they can do a sham impeachment for any reason they want. They can vote to impeach just because they don’t like his stupid ugly face. But I doubt they actually have the votes. This is just revenge for daring to impeach Trump. It won’t succeed but they get to do “investigations”. They hope that will hurt Biden next November.
History says that it won’t. See: The impeachment of Bill Clinton. For the young ones out there, President Clinton was relentlessly attacked by the Republicans. They claimed that he and Hillary killed a guy and also had crooked land deals. (Among other things.) They launched huge investigations which turned up nothing.
Nothing except that Bill was having an affair with an intern and lied about it once to Congress. Got him!
So they impeached him for lying to Congress, though to most of America it sounded like impeaching him for having an affair. Certainly, not a very moral thing to do, but not “high crimes and misdemeanors.” The impeachment passed the House but not the Senate.
The Republicans expected that impeaching President Clinton would neuter his support and they would rise to victory. Instead, the opposite happened. People are angry over the obvious political impeachment and gave the win to the Democrats.
I think that most of the Republicans realize that this will backfire on them. However, Trump is demanding that Biden be impeached and they are too cowardly to say no. So they are hoping against hope that they find something, ANYTHING to actually impeach Biden on while they rocket towards a repeat of Clinton’s impeachment minus the affair.
They hope that will hurt Biden next November.
Like when one badmouthes someone then publicly renounces but everyone will only remember the first part and not the second?
Print the accusation on the front page, print the retraction two weeks later on page 8.
“Well you see, the Dems did TWO sham impeachments so it’s only fair we get to do it too.”
I don’t think they actually need a valid reason for impeachment.
They could have impeached Obama for wearing his brown suit. Or Jaywalking when he went to the restaurant and put ketchup on his burger or whatever the heck that was about.
Right. High crimes and misdemeanors. With no definition for either.
To be fair it was Dijon mustard. The man was a monster.
Thank the lord that it wasn’t anchovies and pineapple on pizza.
that’s embarrassing how does anyone vote for these people
Because the one party state rigged it to be this way. They make sure the Dems aren’t a meaningful improvement ever, to sow apathy.

History
Launched in 1982, The Washington Times is a daily newspaper concentrating on politics and news. Based in Washington, D.C., The Washington Times was founded by a self-professed messiah, Korean Sun Myung Moon. According to its parent company, during Washington Times’ 20th anniversary, Moon said: “The Washington Times is responsible for letting the American people know about God” and “The Washington Times will become the instrument in spreading the truth about God to the world.”
And also, presumably, because there were no crimes.
None that he committed, anyway.
What his adult kid may or may not have done isn’t the legal (or even moral) responsibility of the parents.
To be impeached- wouldn’t one need to have done something worthy of impeachment?
Unfortunately not. The House can begin impeachment over anything they want, including things that are not even against the law, as long as they have the votes.
One of the articles of impeachment against Johnson was basically “this guy is an asshole”. The Senate didn’t vote on that article, and acquitted him otherwise.
So there is an argument that you can impeach a President for being an asshole, but it’s not entirely clear.
Isn’t this the clown who Bernie Sanders chastised for wanting to have a physical fight with someone who was testifying to a Congressional committee?
Yes and he should always be remembered for the time Bernie Sanders saved him from an ass-whooping that would literally go down in history.
I honestly kind of wanted to see that fight. You know how much good PR the UAW would have gotten regardless of the outcome.
"Union president takes punch to the face for workers rights*
That is a headline that sells all day long.
The Washington Times is a garbage conservative conspiracy generator. If we’re not linking to Newsmax or FoxNews, we shouldn’t be linking to it.
True that!

They’re so gross. One doesn’t fail multiple fact checks by accident!
I’m pretty sure the stuff the Rs were actually going after Clinton over didn’t happen in office either, Lewinsky just presented a big target they could attach it all to.
Well yes and no. Special console ken starr was appointed over possible tax evasion. He found out about Monica. Then Clinton got in trouble over that AND lying about it. Bill narrowly avoided purjery charges.
Bill narrowly avoided purjery charges.
This is why he asked questions like what the definition of “is” is. He wanted to be absolutely certain what he could get away with without committing perjury.
He did not have sexual relations with that woman because he had them define what they meant by sexual relations, and they said intercourse. So a blowjob literally didn’t count. He asked for the definition of is because whether that just meant currently or at any time in the past was central to his answer.
In my opinion it would be a disaster if you could receive compensation for future policy input, act on that input in office, and be immune simply because you were not in office when you received it.
Just prove he did or did not do it instead of whatever this nonsense take is.
I don’t think that that is the case here though. I agree what you’re saying in terms of a presidential candidate for example. But let’s be real, it’s already happening there. Candidates accepting campaign donations in return for implied favorable consideration if they win.
In my mind though, what you’re taking about still pertains directly to the presidency and would be fair game for impeachment. To me, it isn’t so much important whether the person is in office, but whether the prior action impacts their ability to preside (mostly) free from undue external influence.
lol. Here is how this is going to play out. Nothing will happen officially on this until next fall, within 30 days of the election. Then, there will be “leaks” to the media about details of Biden guilt, which will be complete bullshit but an attempt to swing independent voters.

Beginning to soften the blow of disappointment for their rabid base.
The best part is their Orange Leader is trying to get Courts (at the Supreme Court now) to rule that the President has some kind of ultimate immunity. This would of course put Presidents above the law and out of reach of even the Supreme Court. It would also of course make it so Biden could do whatever he wanted (not that he actually would) - negating their whole farce.
Its so stupid too, because that’s literally against the written word of the constitution. The damned thing literally says that the president is still liable under the rule of law even after being impeached and removed from office. These chucklefucks don’t give a single wet shit about the constitution, they’re just hoping their base is stupid enough to go along with the subversion.
Exactly. Say the President has absolute immunity to do anything he wants. Joe Biden could then declare Trump Public Enemy #1 and have him imprisoned pending trial. Then all MAGA Republicans could be called Public Enemies 2 through however many and have them imprisoned. And doing this would be perfectly legal because the President is immune.
Of course, the President isn’t immune, Biden wouldn’t do this, and he’d be wrong if he did. Still, if we accept Trump’s assertion that the President can do anything he wants and it’s always legal, then they are opening the door for Biden to take any action he wants with no repercussions.
I wouldn’t put it past the Republican judges to rule that only Trump specifically has immunity.
But since they put having power above party/country/the law, the chance they would put an aspiring dictator into power that wants to take the Supreme Courts power away, seems slim to nil.
Hmm, good point.
Having no evidence except “payback for Trump, baby” might be a larger problem
Goddam “facts” and “reality”. So often creating problems for extremists. Too bad that “alternative facts” phrase became a punchline instead of a legitimate part of our vocabulary.
