If you want to dump Trump....

I suggest bombarding the Republican Senators, who are most likely to agree to additional witnesses and information, as well as your own Senators, with emails and phone calls demanding that they do so. Senators Susan Collins, Lisa Murkowski and Mitt Romney for sure but we need at least one other; anybody know who's most likely? I'm going to start the process now, and also send letters to the editor of a number of newspapers.

many of them claim to only take mail from residents, I sent them letters anyway. I'll send to Oregon and California, as I have lived in both places. I will also send to Wyoming, as i have done business there in the past and have family connections.

Holy cow have they stonewalled this investigation.

Sen. Rob Portman of Ohio, member of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, knew the aid to Ukraine was being monkeyed with and delayed.

Oklahoma Sen. James Inhofe, chairman of the Senate Armed Services Committee, was also asking about the delay.

It stunk and they knew it. Portman has a reputation as bipartisan, and there are few more partisan than Inhofe. But they both knew. They know. I hope people let them know we know.

The President just copped to Article II in public remarks in Davos, admitting to obstructing Congress. The man admits to an impeachable offense -- again -- on camera and Senators will do nothing about it.

I hope this is a stain on their conscience for a long time. A complete abdication of their responsibility as public servants and to the country they're serving.

Yup. Disgraceful.

Heard one of the comic's on the radio this morning and the phrase stuck in my mind:

"This week we'll find out if breaking the law is actually illegal"

"This week we'll find out if breaking the law is actually illegal"

Oh, that's good. Sad, but good.

I created a stock letter and have sent it to both my senators and have submitted it to a half dozen newspapers in Florida, Main, Utah and Alaska (senators that might do the right thing). I'll send it to a lot more in FL and around the country. Yeah, getting to other state's senators is difficult.

If you support trump, you support this and all other negative environmental actions from this administration. Explain yourself, this is not taken lightly.

And if you support this, than you deny me freedom, you deny all of us freedom, and you deny future humans the same opportunity you had. Why are some so willing to sell their freedom, their potential, the future for the false promise of everlasting dows? its seems so damn short sighted.

Oh, that's good. Sad, but good.

Sad indeed. My old Attorney General, Martha Coakley - Democrat, once said: "Technically it's not illegal to be illegal in MA" when speaking on immigration.

Umm, what?

[Ras72]

It's all proven perfectly non-illegal when you factor alternative truths on every technicality.
If that doesn't work, just claim you've never met the person. That should do it.

It would all be aired on the stupid criminal shows with Tonya Harding if it was not Mr. Trump.

Forget about how to dump Trump, why not focus on how to beat Trump?

Iowa seems interesting, there is a wiff of Bernie not getting full DNC support in the air. Please, not again.

Warren bragging about being the only one to unseat a Republican sounds good, but in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, that's not really too tough. I'd rather have her proclaim what she's done for us in the bay state, but SHE can't even think of anything...

John Kerry stuff...a reported runs with a story based on eavesdropping on one side of a phone conversation? As much as I dislike Kerry, that's crappy journalism. Unless the Senator did it on purpose to see if there was any interest, which I'd say, there isn't.
