So it looks like Mr Trump has gone and gotten himself impeached again. This time for Insurrection.

What does this mean for himself and his followers?

Trump impeached for 'inciting' US Capitol riot in historic second charge
Yes Pelosi has now invented the Mc Donald's of impeachment, I expect her to open a drive thru window any time. This foolish action will come back to create problems in the future that have not even been considered. We are now at the point of any party being able to void the vote of the people by using an instant impeachment.

How is impeaching Trump voiding the vote of the people? The people voted him out anyway.

-- A2SG, besides, impeachment alone doesn't void anything...you need two-thirds of the Senate to convict too.....

looking beyond today and not being equally short sighted with Pelosi we should be able to see that this sets a dangerous problem for the future of all who serve in an elected position.

Why? It's not like impeachment is a new thing. We've even used it before.

Everything Speaker Pelosi has done has been legal and well within the limits of the Constitution.

-- A2SG, and, oddly enough, she didn't even have to lie about anything......

It's obvious that Trump lost, sure.

If you're trying to imply that he didn't lose, well, we all know that song and dance, don't we?

-- A2SG, at least put it to a disco beat this time, make it a little interesting....

Nope. You claimed that impeaching trump somehow voided the vote of the people, and I pointed out that the vote of the people was that Trump not be reelected anyway.

Then you made some vague comment implying that Trump didn't lose the election that he did lose, and here we are. :wave:

-- A2SG, it's just the same old song.....

Well that is not what I said but I am not surprised by that.

I'm sorry, I must have missed the thing that if it is not obvious now it never will be.

What is that?

-- A2SG, or did I miss my shot, and it never will be now.....

I think to point being made is that taking a political action that has always been an option and has happened several times before is unlikely to cause a downstream unintended consequence.

Although if you have an idea for what that consequence may be I would be interested to hear about it.

Do you know of any other impeachment that was decided in only one day, the experts do not seem to think this has ever been done before, they also do not think that an impeachment has ever been started when the subject had only a week left in office. And they also seem to think that this is a very imprudent thing to do and sets a dangerous precedent. That gives me cause for serious concern and I think others should also be concerned.

A bad precedent would be set if a politician was not held to account for inciting an Insurectionism, Bon’s you think.

It's impossible to reason with the left. No matter what you say to them you will just end up being falsely accused of saying something different or else you will be told that you are either misinformed or just plain wrong. All the left cares about is crucifying and maligning Trump and Trump supporters, which makes it impossible to have a meaningful discussion with them. It's like trying to reason with a hostile lawyer who is out to indict you at all costs. Whatever it takes! The election may be over, but the war between the left and the right is not over. Not even close. America is in big trouble!

The GOP impeaches Bill Clinton for lying about sex, but turns its head over a sitting president trying to overturn a U.S. election, calling his base to Washington, and whipping them into a frenzy to storm the Capitol. If a President can't be impeached for sedition, what can he/she be impeached for?

If any President in the future behaves as Donald Trump did last Wednesday, I will certainly call for his/her impeachment.

The evidence for the grand jury (the House) was obvious for all to see.
