We can't assume anything from the radical right either. This insane crap won't end here even tho they'll do their damnedest to convince the Dems that we all should work in unity. Trust me, that's not how radical Repubs operate. Neither do snakes. Even McConnell now wants Trump gone. Sure he does ..... they need to rebuild their GOP after so much damage has been done with hefty tax cuts on the side for the rich bastards. Even Liz Cheney wants Trump impeached. Never thot I'd see the day with her making any good sense. Again, they want Trump behind them so that the rebuild can start, while Biden busts his butt the next 4 yrs to fix all that was broken only to take sucker gut punches from the right. You just watch..... it's coming.

Trump may get impeached during the McConnell Senate trial but that won't stop the rads from doing what they do best. Lie and spin while taking .... not giving. Justice will need to snatch up many of the radical Trump operatives before any chance of normalcy.   

I doubt it but who knows for sure what will happen in the near future... Keep in mind though that Trump can only pardon people of Federal crimes. And, that's assuming he wants to and with Trump I'm not sure we can assume anything anymore...

 

I know, I know, I'm being terrible to suggest that we shoot the GOPers the covid shot with a high powered tranquilizer gun. I'm just like the Trump boys to hunt special game at disadvantages.

I'm sure that fleeing the US will be in the minds of several Trumplicans these next few weeks.

Is there any legal option whatsoever to block Trump's pardons? It just doesn't seem proper for one who is on the verge of being charged with treason being able to pardon those who have already committed or also considering treason.

I was hoping that once impeachment proceedings began, that that alone would suspend Trump's pardoning power until the trial was completed.

Before this is over McConnell just might be fleeing to Russia along with Trump...

On one hand, Trump still can pardon all the people who stormed the Capitol. He could also flee to Russia.

On the other hand, even though Pelosi is talking about a hurry-up form of impeachment, Sen. McConnell says if the House impeaches, he will start the Senate trial no earlier than 1 hour after Joe Biden is sworn in. McConnell is a master of stalling, so you know he can do it.

This idea is not original from me. Make the $2,000 check payable only if the payee can show she's had a COVID-19 vaccine shot. That way, it's not a mandatory shot. It's only leverage.

I was thinking about this a little more. What really more can Trump do in the next few days to make it worse? First of all, he has to be VERY aware of any criminal activity he takes from here on out. Second, if he attempts anything criminal from here on out it basically would have to be with help from someone on the inside. His political handlers, allies etc. Which, if that happened and the behavior was criminal it would also implicate them and open them up to further criminal charges. That would open them up to prison, restitution, and essentially an end to their political aspirations if they had/have any. So, what could Trump do to really make anything worse than it already is?

Amen...
