As long as the majority of republicans are against pro-choice and womens rights to their bodies, are against wall street and banking regulations, are against fair taxes for the rich and big business, are against sensible gun control measures, are against keeping the bible the **** out of schools and government, are against equal rights for the LBGT community, are against regulations that protect the environment and worker safety, and are always FOR legislation and cuts that benefit the wealthy while screwing over blue collar and low income people, I will not vote for them.

Trump represents all of the above. Plus he's an arrogant, entitled, lying, two faced dick. Makes him an easy target for me.

And in other news.....

"I have been authorized by the DOJ to confirm that the FBI, as part of our counterintelligence mission, is investigating the Russian government’s efforts to interfere in the 2016 presidential election – and that includes investigating the nature of any links between individuals associated with the Trump campaign and the Russian government. And whether there was any coordination between the campaign and Russian’s efforts. As with any counterintelligence investigation, this will also include an assessment of whether any crimes were committed." - James Comey before congress this morning

What sparked this?

TBH I think the only reason that it hasn't been attempted yet is because people are still case building/waiting for a crime that is clear enough for a successful impeachment.

I'm not a juggalo. And I cite that as one of the main reason, also with the fact that I hardly listen to ICP.

The worst part about it is that his supporters believe everything he says, which on its own is scary. At what point are people going to start holding the man in power accountable for the things he says. Donald Trump is no stranger to calling out other people's faults, but for whatever reason, whenever Trump does it, he just gets a slap on a wrist. His mental instability and the fantasy he has created for himself on top of his constant attacks and lying should be nearing enough for impeachment. Does he literally have to commit a crime to make it possible? The country should be the first priority, and the fact that they haven't concluded that Trump is unfit to serve it is mind blowing to me.

Yes, he does.

Wait, is lying actually an impeachable offense? Pretty sure it isn't. Like, really sure.

For argument's sake, no he cannot be impeached. Now stop being silly.
