President Trump Denounces ‘Terrible Ordeal’ of Impeachment – WSJ
WASHINGTON—President Trump said he “went through hell” during what he termed a politically driven impeachment investigation, in comments a day after he was found not guilty in the Senate trial.
“This is what the end result is,” Mr. Trump said, holding up a copy of a newspaper with the headline “Trump Acquitted.” He quipped: “It’s the only good headline I’ve had in the Washington Post.”
Mr. Trump, speaking from the East Room of the White House Thursday, said Democrats have been targeting him since he took office, and called an earlier probe into possible ties between his 2016 campaign and Russia “all bullshit.” He said the investigation he experienced should “never, ever happen to another president.”
Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell before the final impeachment vote on Feb. 5:
It insults the intelligence of the American people to pretend this was a solemn process reluctantly begun because of withheld foreign aid. No, Washington Democrats’ position on this president has been clear for years. Their position was obvious when they openly rooted for the Mueller investigation to tear our country apart and were disappointed when the facts proved otherwise. It was obvious when they sought to impeach this president over and over. Here’s their real position: Washington Democrats think President Donald Trump committed a “high crime or misdemeanor” the moment he defeated Secretary Clinton in the 2016 election.
That is the original sin of this presidency: That he won and they lost. Ever since, the nation has suffered through a grinding campaign against our norms and institutions from the same people who keep shouting that our norms and institutions need defending. A campaign to degrade our democracy and delegitimize our elections from the same people who shout that confidence in our democracy must be paramount.
We have watched a major American political party adopt the following absurd proposition: We think this president is a bull in a china shop, so we’re going to drive a bulldozer through the china shop to get rid of him.
Three Glorious Days of Democrat Agony
So, February 3, 4, and 5, 2020 were pretty much the most miserable three days in the history of the Democratic Party. I’m not laughing, really I’m not! You know how sometimes you have a bad day when nothing goes right? Well, these super-achievers managed to triple that streak. They are achievers in the same sense Hoover Snort Biden is an achiever.
Let’s start with Monday, February 3rd and the Iowa Caucuses. In their defense, it wasn’t like they had four years to get prepared to handle…counting. Oh wait, they did have four years to handle…counting. Okay, well, then in their defense they went to unionized failing government schools, so counting is hard. But not for the Republicans, who managed to count their votes just fine.
As of when you read this, they might still not have actual numbers. Audie Murphy Buttigieg, Crusty Commie Curmudgeon and Chief Sitting Bolshevik may well all still be claiming victory, while Gropey J’s handlers are likely still complaining about the process and Not Senile Joe himself is chasing an uppity squirrel around a Nashua park.
One thing for sure – Mr. Electible is done for. He started off Monday arguing with liberal Savannah Guthrie on NBC about how his stripperphilic brat got his Ukrainian gig by being really “bright.” He ended up serenaded by sad trombones as he was hustled out of Des Moines to head east to try and salvage the S.S. Lusitania that is his latest presidential campaign…
And then President Trump gave the best State of the Union speech pretty much ever, spending much of it listing real achievements that help real Americans while Nancy Pelosi fumed behind him, offering a running commentary to her invisible friend. Trump played the Dems like Pete Townsend plays the guitar. Among the things Trump got them not to applaud for were:
Record low unemployment
Record high stocks
Fair trade
Minority children not being stuck in failing government schools
People fighting cancer
Law enforcement
Our military
Killing terrorists
Not killing babies
America
GodThen February 5th came along and their impeachment collapsed into rubble. We all knew it was coming, but then … poof. Gone. You tried to take out the king, and you failed. How lame.
Yeah, history will record that you managed to impeach Donald Trump. History will also record that Donald Trump beat you donkeys like rented mules.

TRUMPENCE

TRUMPENCE
And here I thought you just designed houses and such. Now you’re crafting words.
For all of the left’s complaints about “polarization”, they’ve well polarized themselves into a rather solid bubble that’s killing them. They keep drawing, moving, and redrawing these indefensible lines while failing to realize it isn’t the 1990’s anymore. Trump’s not perfect, but he’s exposed just how indefensible this is on the left’s part.
The scary thing is without Trump, the GOP establishment would have been happy to playing into the left’s hands.
This impeachment just may have been a killing blow, but an entirely self inflicted.
That was some of the BEST SNARK I’ve ever read!
You DA MAN, Gerard!
All in all, the Founders did a remarkable job setting up the plan for the governance of this country.
But in ‘Impeachment’, which at this point is 3/0, they kinda missed. At some point, perhaps in the near future unless the requirements for bringing an article of impeachment are made clearer, a elected and sitting American President will be removed from office simply because the other party holds a majority in both house of Congress. Who will quickly impeach and remove both the President and the Vice President and install the Speaker of the House; simply because they can. And the NYT will pump out editorials applauding it as ‘wonderful’.
I assume the Democrats will be adding to their ‘wish list’ of removing the Electoral College, the requirement of a simple majority in the Senate remove an impeached President. Unless that President is a Democrat, then the list will add the title, “President for Life”.
The Democrat Party really, really needs to be destroyed.

And thus is explained the platform, vision and actions of the Donk party.
demz. I spit on their graves.
Dead Solid Perfect commentary.
Ok,dems, coffee break is over,back on your heads.
