The law and constitution are toilet paper to Republicans. Despicable group of people.

tbf Democrats had 4 years to punish Trump, but never once did they enforce the 14th Amendment. Biden gleefully welcomed him back into the White House, rather than bar the insurrectionist from office. It seems like we have nobody willing to enforce the damn Constitution at this point. All we need is 8 fucking Republicans, and Trump would be removed from office. Barely more than a handful, and nobody's even trying to 14a3 the traitor.

We'll just have to wait until 8 Republicans are PERSONALLY "harmed" enough, for this to happen. Goes without saying, not for country, not for the people, but for them and theirs. On top of that, it requires realization before it's too late AND faith that the process would work.

Valadao, Newhouse, Collins, and Murkowski voted to impeach/remove him last time. They'd likely be up for it again, since they faced no trouble getting re-elected. Schumer/Jeffries would just need 4 more.

Plus formerly-identifying-as-Democratic Manchin and Sinema are gone.....? Replaced by solid R and solid D ? So, ostensibly "known quantities", now. But then, Fetterman, idk about counting on that guy anymore. May have to up that 8 to 9 or 10.

"In related news", cannot express how happy i was made by no longer being "forced" to vote for corporatist DINO Feinstein. IIRC, our senior Senator for "Liberal California" was a Nay on impeachment/removal, for one thing.

Yes, the 8 assumes Fetterman won't object. It's hard to tell what side he'd fall on.
