(28,818 posts)it's maddening. they just keep getting away with everything. but here is some good news: trump has been losing in court. he will continue to lose in court. it's too slow for me too. but my frustration level is just too high. my outrage meter has been blown. i have to trust the democrats.
i just have to at least right now. i can hardly watch the news at this point. twitter used to be my outlet but for a couple days i can't engage there. too much bad news. plus i can't find a job and am struggling with depression for that reason and so.
i just have to trust them for a minute. what i can NOT believe right now is that impeachment will not happen prior to the 2020 election. i too hope it is sooner than later, but just recognize that the case that is brought will have to be overwhelming and persuasive, so that even if the republicans in the senate refuse to convict, the public at large will know of his guilt.
recently i argued with Rep David Price (NC-democrat) about impeachment. he agreed that trump has committed impeachable offenses, but told me, dead serious, the republicans will never convict. i think he actually said something to the effect that if i thought there was any chance they would, he felt sorry for me.
