Please recall Democrats had FOUR YEARS to prepare for another Trump campaign, including two years of majority.

The filibuster/cloture can be ignored by them at will with a simple majority vote.

The senate doesn't "need" a two thirds majority. It makes bills "exceptions" to that majority vote with regularity, hundreds of exceptions; it's a senate rule and not law.

The senate could have impeached and convicted him and barred him from holding office for his entire life. That's their job. they are the only ones who can do it.

Yeah really, they’ve successfully impeached him twice but without more control in Congress, they can’t remove him.

Hate it? I know. But all we can do is go donate to or work for a congressional candidate’s campaign somewhere that could help tip the scales.

Also. Even if hypothetically they get the house and Senate in 2027, they can impeach but not remove him because there's no way they'll have a Senate supermajority...

they can't even hold the vote. all they can do is file the articles. as you say, it's up to mike johnson and whoever has his balls in their purse (and probably his and his son's porn proclivities, i'm betting Putain)

Dems have already done it twice in his second term, but no one remembers because Trump’s weekly crazy shit is crazier than impeachment, and because the press doesn’t spent time covering something that the GOP can insta-block because they’re the majority.

Ah, well you don't have to worry about them wasting time on this, because they very definitely do not want to close the door on doing extra-legal imperial management The Right Way when next they hold the presidency.

Last week there was an anti-trans discriminatory bill that passed the house with 100% Republican support and 1% Democratic support courtesy of like 2 Texan democrats.

Headline? "DEMOCRATS HATE TRANS PEOPLE"

Comments? "This is why I don't vote, blah blah"

It's genuinely exhausting interacting with these dumb ass people

The protest non-voters.

the people who have been prepping for overthrowing the government were nutjobs freaking out that a coherent black man was elected. they are the same people who would be fragging us in an organized resistance in this government. some types of segregation are okay.

He's not above the law, they just want to prosecute him for some unimportant, tacky procedural misstep. Neither party wants the precedent of presidents facing consequences.

I wish everyday that Harris won and life was normal again.

What makes you think the younger batch of GOP are any more level-headed?

You mean he defied the consitution's emoluments clause - he very much did NOT defy emoluments.

The President shall, at stated Times, receive for his Services, a Compensation, which shall neither be increased nor diminished during the Period for which he shall have been elected, and he shall not receive within that Period any other Emolument from the United States, or any of them

Because they are the left wing extension of far right politics. They are complicit to the scheme.
