Nov 2017

This cabinet is the worse in modern history, if not in all of US history.
They are the saddest group of unqualified, narcissistic, ass-kissing sycophants I have ever seen.
You could never get a plurality to vote to impeach trump because:
1) it doesn’t make the investigation go away

2) the investigation will still likely ensnare or deeply tarnish Pence and others in the cabinet, making them completely ineffective.

Removing trump this way is symbolic at best, an admission of guilt at worse and likely to do nothing to stop what is already happening.
