If Trump is impeached there will be some riots. I actually doubt if it will be as many as when he was elected. I am not sure if he wants to stir the pot, but he could.
It has been said over and over his mouth is his worst enemy. It does bother me that he seems to want to continue to fight an individual, even after he has won i.e. if he actually called Comey a 'nut job' it is silly. There was no need to make a real enemy of the man. Comey has folks who admired him and liked him, continuing to RUB IT IN seems to be a trait of Trumps and it does bother me. I am trying to take what I read on the internet news with a grain of salt. BUT but in another case 'Cosby', I kept hoping all that flack was smoke and no fire in the media. But I am changing my mind although Cosby was one of my favorite actors.
I am slowly changing my mental picture of Trump and I don't like to be manipulated. I feel that I am being force fed daily by negative press. If it weren't for his mouth and limited vocabulary it would be hard to turn my head. BUT the man gives the media so much ammo they will never hear the click when the firing pin his nothing.
Impeached? I hope not.
Sign out and act like he won, I would prefer.
BUT those are options that I do not HOPE for. I do hope he rises somehow above the fray and learns how to govern without continually being a 'name caller'.  _________________ Some facts but mostly just my opinion!

I always felt like the media (and maybe even Hillary) created Trump.
He got a LOT of free press to get the momentum going.
I voted for him. I WISHED I felt like I had another option. I still think he is the better choice over Hillary. We did get a decent supreme court justice out of the deal and sugar poured into the Obamacare gas tank.
If the media created him, then the media will certainly feel obliged to destroy him. They are giving it there best shot.
If he called Comey a nut-job, all I can say is "pot, let me introduce you to kettle."  |

I'm not totally sure one has to be convicted of a crime to be impeached. As I recall, there were talks when Clinton was under investigation that impeachment is based on however that want to consider. Incompetence, or incapacity can apparently be grounds. However, I am certainly not knowledgable about this and I'm trying to remember from 20 years ago!
While one would think removal would be based on a crime, I guess valid grounds could be made if a person were mentally unhinged and refused to resign. As I said, I'm not anywhere near certain what I'm saying is correct, but based on memory, which fails me more every day
In the case of Clinton, even the crime of perjury (not the underlying Adultry) was the reason for his impeachment and the demo's of the time could care less and painted it as a private situation. Therefore, even with crimes, a President can elude removal from office. The demos were successful in duping the public on the difference. Amazingly, even the liberal bar association eventually disbarred Clinton.
But to the case today, I suspect a stronger and more justifiable case may be made regarding his mental stability and whether he is fit for office.
As many of you, I voted for the man simply because of how bad Hillary was, but I was never a "pro Trumper". I wish he would step aside and let Pence take over, but I'm afraid that will not happen. I also fear for the backlash from his strong supporters who could feel, justifiably, that Trump was run out of town.
It is indeed a mess. It just affirms how incredibly incompetent Hillary was as a candidate. Except for Hillary, Trump was the worst candidate in history for the Presidency. At least Trump has delivered our best hope for a good Supreme Court Justice and that was the bottom line of why I voted for him. Time will tell if the new Justice is truly a conservative.
Except for the Court, I absolutely came the closest I have ever come to voting for a Demo Candidate. At least I thought Hillary was relatively sane. I didn't want to knowingly vote for a crook, but I could have dealt with her personal gains from the Presidency if her policies were good. If a "good" democrat had been elected (similar to a Joe Liberman), and if there were no expected Supreme Court appointments, I may have voted Demo for the first time in my life in this election. If a "pro life" Demo had run this time, I would have voted for them. However, I doubt a pro life Demo will ever be their candidate, so that is not a worry

At this point, I wouldn't bet he will survive impeachment. The Establishment Republican's are incapable of governing and will look to Trump as the scapegoat. Nothing needs to be said of the Dems.
You never trust anything when an "independent" counsel is appointed. It all depends on their agenda. If Trump continues to run his mouth, what little support Trump has will erode and he will go.
If by some miracle, he comes out smelling like a rose, he will survive. I believe if it is grey, he will go. He has no support in Washington. |
You cannot be impeached without being found guilty of breaking a law.
Think about it. What "crime" (violation of the law) is currently being investigated? With Nixon, there was an actual break-in, a historical fact, that prosecutors tried to link Nixon to directly or indirectly.
With Clinton, you had clear evidence of criminal mischief in the White Water incident. Then there was Lewinsky. Both actual incidents.
With Trump, NOTHING has happened. There is no actual incident being investigated that prosecutors are trying to link Trump to.
And you guys are falling for this? Are Christians really this easily fooled?
Reading all these posts actually makes worried about you guys, not Trump.

Respectfully, it is comments like these that make me think my brothers fall for media manipulation more than they realize. They start to buy in to what is repeated over and over. There is no basis to question Trump's mental stability. This is just more media spin.

Do you ever stop and think about what you write? You do know that kind of talk can get you in trouble, don't you? Your information can be taken by authorities, and you can find yourself in big trouble. |

Saying you are concerned that someone might try to assassinate a President will not get you in trouble. _________________ "It is doubtful if any Trinitarian Pentecostals have ever professed to believe in three gods, and Oneness Pentecostals should not claim that they do." - Daniel Segraves UPCI |
