As calls for Donald Trump to be impeached flooded social media after his genocidal threats toward Iran on Tuesday, the Senate’s Democratic leaders put out a statement late in the day that merely condemned Trump’s comment without any vow to take action. In a joint statement on Tuesday afternoon, Democratic leaders Senators Chuck Schumer (New York) and Jeanne Shaheen (New Hampshire)…

    Okay, schumer can get fucked, but the Senate does not initiate impeachment, making this headline pretty fucking stupid.

    It’s not his job to initiate impeachment, but that doesn’t change the fact Schumer works for Israel and doesn’t give a crap about our country or our people. If he did, he’d be making a joint statement with Jeffries with a concrete plan for removal. There is no other course of action to take, given how destructive Trump’s policies are for us and other western nations.

    Fuck SCOTUS for making it legal to bribe politicians and allowing Israel to buy them all. What a mockery of a sham America has become.

    Schumer cannot have an opinion until Israel tells him to have an opinion. He’s part of the Zionist death cult.

    They tried twice and were shot down both times. And then the people voted Trump in again. Why should he try to impeach again?

    This is what the people want.

    Let the republicans start impeachment or pull the 25th!

      Trump didn’t win because he was popular, he won because the Democrats are so massively unpopular, even with their own base. And one of the main reasons the Dems are so unpopular is the spineless Chuck Schmoozer who takes his orders directly from Netanyahu.

      Protest votes against Trump will be the only reason the Dems might be able to get re-elected. But even if by some miracle the Dems manage to take control of both houses, they will squander their time and be “unable” to make any serious changes to address income inequality, or to deal properly with the massive problems with the US healthcare scam. Maybe they’ll be able to legislate for abortion rights again at a federal level, because it doesn’t cost them anything, but tbh it wouldn’t surprise me if they fuck that up too.
