Unity?

no unity without accountability. unity does not mean 'forget all the batshit crazy stuff we have done and reach out to us', lol.

Republican voters in very large numbers voted for a kiddie diddler in alabama. Im not convinced the moral or ethical failings of any republican politician would bother these people. I am very curious what the hell is wrong with them as a people.

Same voters who overwhelmingly think u have to swear in to congress on a bible. aka fucking idiots.

A large enough segment of voters was so turned off by Roy Moore that the guy managed to lose a statewide race in Alabama. His example shows that even super conservative Republican voters do draw a line - it's just not as tight as liberals want it to be.

That line was almost 50/50 which shows an incredible failing of basic human decency within a large demographic of people in the west.

It's called "polemics".


So? I dont see the contradiction or logical flaw in my reasoning. Yes, I think that ultimately, it should - and will!!! - be the voters who hold Trump accountable. Like I said previously: even if he runs again, he wont win the Republican nomination in 2024.



Wrong. I dont care if Trump is impeached or not, I'm done with him. What I do care about, however, is that he is held accountable by the right institution and that holding him accountable is not abused by Democrats for political gain. Democrats are staging a show trial against a president who has already left office, who is already discredited and who has not even the slightest chance of ever winning the general election of a presidential race ever again. It's a waste of time and resources, only divides the country even further, and it only serves their own agenda. If you ask me, the country has spent enough time talking and thinking about Trump. The Trump presidency ended with a whimper, but Democrats seemingly want to keep obsessing over him even after they achieved their goal of ousting him.

It's really not hard to see through their strategy, I mean, come on. They want to force the GOP senators to take a toxic vote which divides their caucus and their party. Additionally, they're trying to use the swing in public opinion on Trump to force the GOP lawmakers into succumbing to their semi-totalitarian "join our quest for vengeance or there can be no unity"-logic. Liberals and NeverTrumpers cannot settle for "we fundamentally disagree on Trump, and our side ultimately won the battle over public opinion via Biden's victory" - no, they are still so triggered that they cant let it rest without getting the public "you were right on Trump and we were wrong" from the GOP that they've been craving for 5 years.

Getting to 50/50 in an extremely inelastic R+20 state is no small feat...

This is the ONLY way to hold Trump accountable politically. Trump did nothing illegal since we have free speech but he certainly did something impeachable. Trump could have started a nuclear war with Germany and that would have been perfectly legal since he's the President.

Anyway, I think we can all agree that Republicans will turn a blind eye if Biden attempts to do the same thing.

If Biden attempted to do the same thing, the MSM would cover it as a bold, brave and righteous resistance against the racism and bigotry that propelled his challenger to victory over uncle Joe, flavored with a bit of "fiery but mostly peaceful", and of course the use of the word "activist" instead of "rioter" or "insurrectionist".

But seriously: no, I do not think that the GOP would be calling for an impeachment vote against Biden after he has already left office.
