DeleteAfter 2 Democrats, one of whom later that week left the party, voted with the GOP in the impeachment of President Trump, the White House trumpeted that a "bi-partisan" group of leaders from Congress resisted sending the Articles to the Senate.
DeleteI assume that same White House will be saying today that a bi-partisan group of Senators felt President Trump was guilty of an "Abuse of Power."
While a majority of Senators agreed, if you read their statements, that the House proved their case and that as a point of fact, President Trump was/is guilty, they decided the punishment was too strong for his actions. I agree with them
And so, President Trump will not, of course, be removed from office. But if you look at their statements, a majority of elected people serving as our leaders in Washington believe his call was anything but perfect, was inappropriate, and for some, flat out against the law.
Today, after the shameful display of both parties last night, is not a day of celebration in America. Rather it's a day of celebration around the world as our enemies was us tear at each others wounds, many self inflicted.
Dave,
DeleteNot much to disagree with in your comments. Democrats thought they could foment a hysteria over a minor thing, and they flopped, despite having CIA employees, Army officers, and friends of Adam Schiff imbedded in the NSC watching and waiting for an opportunity to ambush the president.
And this after promising they had airtight proof of Russian collusion, using the FBI, CIA et al to spy on President Trump and his campaign, the Mueller Report flop (why didn't Democrats use that for impeachment if it was such a great report?), screaming from day one that they would "impeach the M*****f*****", and here we are.
Yes, its been a shameful display. And now we have Van Jones "warning" Democrats that President Trump is actually helping black voters (unlike Democrats, who just talk a good game) and that Trump could steal black voters from Democrats, as if these American citizens are the property of the Democrat Party.
Other Democrat operatives are warning that President Trump is attempting to "split" black voters from Hispanic voters, as if they ever voted as a block (they have not).
The Democrat party has come unhinged. Pelosi is an 80 year old woman acting like a spoiled 7 year old princess, and the rabid base (including many congresspeople) has gone batshite crazy.
Why should Mitt Romney quit the Republican Party?
DeleteEven better question.... why should anyone join the Republican Party?
DeleteTC, You gotta be having some mixed feelings about ol' Mitt...
DeleteLatest Gallup says 51% of Americans are Republicans.
DeleteI'm unaffiliated and have requested a Democrat Party ballot this year.
Feel the Bern, Colorado!
Yes SF. Romney seems to think he swore an oath to support and defend the Constitution rather than an oath to Trump. Really absurd is his belief that the Republican Party is a big tent that welcomes a variety of viewpoints other than hating America.
DeleteTC,
DeleteRomney is nothing if not a self-serving politician -- and one with quite a checkered record:
1) What Does Mitt Romney Even Stand For? An Investigation
and
2) Mitt Romney is not ‘principled’ — and he never has been.

DeleteSo, you voted FOR Romney in 2012, beamish?
DeleteTDS strikes AGAIN! lol!
The general consensus among Republican Senators is "yes Trump did wrong but so what?" This violates the Trump edict that he did nothing wrong. Who else needs to be purged from the Trumpenproletariat?
DeleteWhen did the definition of "TDS" become "belief in the supremacy of the US Constitution and support for the rule of law" anyway?
DeleteOh wait, it's always meant that lol.
DeleteIt is not illogical for House members and Senators to hold that what the president did was wrong, but it did not rise to the level of impeachment.
DeleteAOW,
DeleteI'm no Romney fan, but if the worst he's done is create a health care plan it kinda pales in comparison to violating the Impoundment Control Act of 1974 in an attempt to bribe a foreign government to circumvent habeas corpus and due process for American citizens.
Your mileage may have a broken odometer.
SF,
DeleteThat isn't Trump's position though. His position is that he did no wrong, everything was "perfect."
Logical?
Regardless, I hope we can all agree that Romney has secured for himself free rent in a very big space in Trump's head. We're no doubt in store for weeks, WEEEKS! of how much Trump is butthurt over Romney.
DeleteRomney may have to offer him some diaper paste.
As to whether Romney should leave the GOP, one conservative blogger had this say... "We can’t go down the path of the Left 'You think like WE do, or you’re OUT'."
DeleteIsn't that exactly what President Trump is demanding? Total loyalty? Isn't that where the GOP already is? One vote against the President and people are going nuts. There were at least 5 other Senators who agreed with Sen Romney that the call and the president's actions were less than perfect, perhaps a crime.
Are people mad about Romney's views, essentially the same as Portman, Rubio, Sasse, Alexander & Murkowski, or that he voted his conscience in agreement with his views of the president's guilt?
Why no criticism of the other Senators?
one conservative blogger had this say... "We can’t go down the path of the Left 'You think like WE do, or you’re OUT'."
DeleteNice song, except for that missed beat that Trump isn't quite as conservative as Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (she wants to change laws via the legislative process, Trump doesn't do that law-abiding stuff). The Republican Party platform fits on a cue card that reads "Fellate Trump."

And Pelosi's making a show of tearing up her copy of the SOTU Speech? Smacks of a child's tantrum. Sheesh.
Cheering that pil of half truths and outright lis and treating him like a dictator is hardly th maturity you're looking for.
ReplyDeleteThe speech was a disgrace.

ReplyDeleteSenate Acquits Trump on Abuse of Power, AND Obstruction of Congress Charges
Fox News,
by Gregg Re
The Senate overwhelmingly acquitted President Trump on both articles of impeachment against him Wednesday afternoon following a brief trial, in a historic rejection of Democrats' claims that the president's Ukraine dealings and handling of congressional subpoenas merited his immediate removal from office.
All Democratic senators supported convicting the president of abuse of power and obstruction of justice, including swing-vote moderate Sens. Joe Manchin, D-W.V., Kyrsten Sinema, D-Ariz., and Doug Jones, R-Ala. The only party defection was on the abuse of power charge from Sen. Mitt Romney, R-Utah. . . .

ReplyDeletePresident Reagan knew how to stay out of endless wars, and he broke Soviet communism. Great man.
ReplyDeleteFrom Jonathan Turley:
ReplyDeletePelosi has demolished decades of tradition with this poorly considered moment. Of course, many will celebrate her conduct and be thrilled by the insult to Trump. However, even those of us who disagree with his policies should consider what Pelosi destroyed in her moment of rage.
She shredded the pretense of governing with civility and dignity in the House. Notably, she did not wait to rip up her copy of the speech until after she left the House floor. Pelosi wanted to do it at the end of the speech, in front of the camera, with the president still in the chamber.
That act was more important to Pelosi than preserving the tradition of her office. In doing so, she forfeited the right to occupy that office. If Pelosi cannot maintain the dignity and neutrality of her office at the State of the Union, she should resign as the Speaker of the House of Representatives.

Unhinged Democrats no longer have the moral high ground.
DeleteThey NEVER DID, SF. NEVER! Not for an instant.
DeleteInteresting observation:
ReplyDelete“A caller to Rush’s show made an excellent point: If Romney believed just a week ago that there was not enough evidence to convict Trump without additional witnesses, how can he vote to convict today when there have been no additional witnesses?”
[link]
Romney's statement said that he had hoped that hearing from John Bolton would provide exonerating testimony so he could vote to acquit.
DeleteDave,
DeleteDid Romney so state? Link, please.
AOW, yes, I do believe he intimated that pretty strongly if not in those exaCT WORDS.
DeleteZ,
DeleteWell, I missed that.
I need a link so as to read up on that topic.
Here's the quote from Romney, available in any transcript...
Delete"I sought to hear testimony from John Bolton, not only because I believed he could add context to the charges, but also because I hoped that what he might say could raise reasonable doubt and thus remove from me the awful obligation to vote for impeachment."
Dave,
DeleteAcknowledged.
The date, however, was that of right before he voted to convict.
I thought that you meant that Romney had said something like that the week before.
Clarification:
DeleteThe date, however, was that of right before he voted to convict -- by way of explanation on February 5.
I'm not really sure what Romney, a former governor, a presidential hopeful, and now a member of the US Senate, was thinking. In our system of justice, in the absence of information to the contrary, persons accused remain innocent of charges. This is not a new concept; it's been with us from the beginning of the Republic. We do not look for reasonable doubt since reasonable doubt is assumed; to convict, there must be evidence beyond reasonable doubt. Romney's thinking is extralegal and un-American.
DeleteMustang... as per Romney's statement, he had already arrived, on the basis of the evidence presented, that President trump was guilty. He was looking for exculpatory evidence. Something to convince him that President Trump did not what he was accused of doing.
DeleteAnd he was not alone.
Senators Alexander, Rubio, Portman, Snowe, Murkowski and Sasse all affirmed and agreed with the view that the House Managers had proved their case and that President Trump was guilty of at least one of the articles.
For all of those Senators, with whom we can of course disagree, Trump's guilt had been established. In fact, Alexander straight up said that was the reason he needed no witnesses because he too had already determined Trump was guilty.
DeleteSorry Dave, you lost me. Alexander voted NG on both charges ... as did Rubio, Portman, and Murkowski. Snowe hasn’t been in the Senate since 2013. Did you mean Collins? She did vote to convict. So then, if Lamar Alexander was so convinced of Trump’s guilt, why did he vote to acquit? Throw me a bone ...
Democrats had rats and moles burrowed into the Trump administration, including Schiff BFF bureaucrats, CIA employees and Army officers.
DeleteThey laid in wait for an ambush, and they thought they had it with the phone call, but their "Bombshell" ended up being a mouse fart.
Schiff LIED to us when he said he had incontrovertible truth of Russia-Trump collusion. Why didn't he use that proof?
Democrats still maintain the foreign election interference knows as the Steele Dossier (Russian kompromat assembled by a Brit) is damning to President Trump. Why didn't they use that?
Democrats and the Infotainment Media Complex screamed about how damning the Mueller Report was, calling it an "impeachment roadmap." Why didn't they use that for the impeachment articles?
Democrats have been foaming at the mouth to "IMPEACH THE M*****F*****" since Her Heinous heaved that sheetcake into the gigantic flatpanel TV on election night.
They thought this was it, and their screaming adjectives and adverbs gave the game away that they were trying to foment a moral panic over the president's actions.
They failed. Bigly.
Most people look at that phone call and say that wasn't the right way to go about it, but impeachable? No way. Lack of voter outrage is the final verdict.
As hysterical wild-eyed leftwing loons use to scream...
#MoveOn
SF,
DeleteAccurate summary.
Lack of balls. They could have voted Trump guilty on one or both charges, and then on the vote to remove Trump from office vote to not remove him. This would have sent the message they are trying to say without saying. Instead, they cravenly chose to enable rather than confront the problem.
DeleteYou don't vote to remove a president over a piddling matter like this, and the American people agree, as evidenced by their lack of outrage.
DeleteI will say this: If President Trump wants to be a true politician, he needs to do like all other pols and use cutouts and buffers to do his dirty work.
Mustang... yes, it was in fact Susan Collins. And yes, all those mentioned voted against removing President Trump from office, but each one of those people said in no uncertain terms that the Trump's phone call, and his subsequent actions were anything but perfect.
DeleteSen Alexander went even further saying the House "proved their case" so he didn't need more witnesses to testify to something he believed the president did. Others agreed with him in various forms.
Look, removal of a President through impeachment was set at a high bar, as it should be. The GOP didn't believe that Trump should be removed for what he did, much as the Dems didn't believe what Clinton did in his term was impeachable.
I get it.
But any view that says President Trump acted "perfectly" as Trump believes he did, is as myopic as those that said Pres Clinton did nothing wrong. The Senators I mentioned said as much.
People can do bad things, as I believe both Presidents Clinton and Trump did. They can be impeached, even largely on partisan grounds, as they both were.
Removal however, is a high bar... as it should be.
But, as any lawyer will tell you, acquittal is a far cry from innocent.
OJ was guilty, Clinton was guilty and I believe Trump was guilty. yet all were acquitted.
I'm not sure what that says about us.
@ Dave
DeleteI don’t think there are any perfect human beings. No matter who the American people overwhelmingly select to represent them, in the House, the Senate, or the White House, it will be an imperfect choice. We Americans have got to get away from this notion that any of these people are infallible. We know differently. If men were but angels...
So, we created laws by which all of us must be held accountable. But our laws are flawed, not in their form, but in their execution. No matter the rhetoric, the truth is that there are laws for the privileged, and laws for everyone else. In many cases, our laws have failed us because the people who should be held to account (and there are too many to list here), never have been held to account. Even when the law has been faithful in its execution, justice eludes us. Trump and Clinton had their day “in court.” Both were acquitted. Some will say that while the law worked as it should have, justice was denied. Such is life in these United States; such is our politics.
I didn’t vote for Trump. I didn’t vote for Clinton, either. Neither of these is the kind of man I want to associate with. Neither is someone who I trust to “faithfully execute the laws of the United States. Both seem too accustomed in playing fast and loose with the rules. But the question does remain ... do we want to remove a man from the presidency ... the office to which he was lawfully elected by the people, because he’s morally inept? Shouldn’t that sort of question be handed back to the electorate to decide in the next election? If there is a blame doesn’t our system demand that it be laid at the feet of the voter? After all, ... it is a government of the people, by the people, for the people ... isn’t it? Finally, acquittal doesn’t mean innocent; it only means not guilty. There are no innocents in politics. What does that say about us? We’re human.
Mustang,
DeleteCompounding all this is our choice of candidates on the ballot. All too often, we don't have candidates who speak to the will of WE THE PEOPLE.
Hobson's Choice and all that.
All too often, I am forced to hold my nose and vote for one of the candidates.
Furthermore, sitting out an election -- or voting for a third party candidate -- has resulted in the worse of the two main choices getting elected. At least, that seems to be what happened when I voted for a third party candidate (for election cycle after election cycle).
Just my two cents on this topic.
Mustang & AOW - Very cogent comments both. This is the blessing in disguise with the current Administration and the cavalcade of clowns on the other side......the worse our political climate gets, the better the chances the system, will be burnt to the ground.....and we have the opportunity to rebuild it as the Founders idealized. Half-measures and hopes entrusted in the worst our species has to offer, will not repair where we find our selves.
DeleteAOW - Don't forgot that Rob Sarvis (L) took more votes from the Left than the Right in the 2013 Virginia election for Governor. The old axiom is always at play however, if everyone who truly wanted a third party choice, actually voted that way....we'd see a massive difference.
Some of you here will enjoy this.....
ReplyDeleteBACKFIRE: 'I Will Never Vote Democrat Again,' Say Angry Dems on C-SPAN After Pelosi's Tantrum.
IMO, American politics has always been mean and small. We inherited this from our British roots. Still, Pelosi took meanness to a new low and the signal was unmistakable. He behavior exemplified the new left. Well, not really new; she simply acted out what we have been seeing in the Democratic Party for the past 20 years. It reinforces the belief that America has entered into a new civil war —an oxymoron because hardly any of it is civil. We should not expect any adult leadership from Pelosi and her gang ... there aren’t any adults.

ReplyDeleteYep, I’d say the Beirut debacle was his only foreign policy fail. Meanwhile, the public can’t keep count of how many kinetic actions we’re currently involved in, under the vague and oft concocted auspices of the AUMF.
Putting troops in Beirut was a fail, and he took the blame, but it was really a failure of our intelligence and defense apparatus. Who the hell thought that was a good idea? Horrible force protection posture, and they didn't anticipate attacks?
ReplyDeleteHaving said that, Reagan was too smart to fall for the illogical "sunk costs" arguments; He cut our losses and got out.
Sure, but that assumes that he wasn’t advised against it, and proceeded anyway. It was before my time and I’m not as well read on the affair as I’d like to be.
ReplyDeleteNonetheless, I hope for another Reagan in my lifetime.....

DeleteAbout Pelosi's ripping of the SOTU Speech (from one of my Facebook friends):
ReplyDeleteThose saying the Copy of the SOTU soeech was shredded. Please note the courtesy copy laying in her desk. Late videos show the blue bound copy still in tact and unopened but the like of papers aka as the courtesy copy is gone.
So, she apparently didn't shred a protected federal document?
I seriously doubt that the president’s speech was “protected,” as in classified. I seriously doubt that Pelosi violated any law respecting her “ripping up” the President’s speech. Since Trump had just concluded his speech the paper version was no longer needed by Pelosi to “follow along” or make marginal notations, so she shredded it. I have seen people do this before. Shredding the document is not the issue; the optics of her doing it was the issue. Intended or not, Pelosi was perceived as acting mean and small, which I believe is in her nature. She’s not alone, however. Trump could have offered her a handshake at the beginning, in keeping with tradition. This too was optics and did not reflect well on his gentlemanly demeanor —which I believe is in his nature. Reagan and O’Neal were politically opposed to one another yet remained cordial. Welcome to American Politics 2020.
DeleteNope. Minority McCarthy submitted an official copy to the House Clerk. The copy that Pelosi had did not fall under the Presidential Records Act as an official document.
