Trump

At best, it’s like charging Al Capone with tax evasion, except the charges won’t stick.

If it’s based on his phone call with Ukraine, it’s surely already nothing

Donald says he’s going to release the full transcript of the conversation today

You’d think the democrats would want to have something a bit more concrete before they tried to impeach. Maybe they do

[evostick]

Ooooh I might take that bet. Trumps approval ratings are very low, even amongst his own supporters. I don't think we'll see another term out of him.

According to gallup he currently has a 90%+ approval rating with republican voters and nigh on his highest overall rating for his term currently at 43%.

He's not going anywhere.

This is a good explainer/timeline: https://www.lawfareblog.com/timeline-tr ... ne-scandal

Trumpcast episode from 20 Sept is a good explainer of everything leading up to this too if you have half an hour to kill in the car rather than reading. https://slate.com/podcasts/trumpcast/20 ... -situation

Details of the call have been released by the White House. I’ll wait to see the full impeachment before I get excited

We’re overdue a good war.

Can see Boris rushing in holding hands with Trump like Bush and Blair. Gives them an excuse to use those new aircraft carriers.

Do they even have aircraft yet?

That was sarcastic. I can’t see this going beyond name calling, and more instability in the Middle East.

Yes. Trump is itching to push the button isn’t he...

I, for one, am looking forward to sending all the boomers off to the WWIII they’ve so desperately been yearning for.
