    I wonder will CNN sign Trump up for a big media deal once he's out of office?

    The cabinet has 4 days to transmit papers to Congress if the 25th is invoked; only the House Speaker and President Pro Tempore of the Senate need to be constitutionally notified to enact the transfer of power, and not in a necessarily public facing manner. 2 sundays ago we passed the time window where the Jan 20th inauguration would supersede any need for Congress to vote 2/3rds on it, Pence would serve under the 25th's 21-day window + the 4-day window to transmit to Congress.

    Amazing the amount of people coming out in condemnation of rioting when I don't hear the same people condemning particularly the antics of Antifa or small elements of the BLM movement. And which came first, eh?

    I thought it really crass of Biden to say that if the protesters were black they would have been treated more harshly when 4 people died? On another day he'll be thankful for the services of the security forces but this time he insulted them.

    Also, I think talk of the incident being an act of sedition is ridiculous. Do you really think their intention was to take over the country in their merry band.

    All I see is utter hypocrisy, and spin.

    I reiterate - this incident would not have happened if it weren't for the biased influence of the media prior to the election. I know that's a serious accusation to make but that's what I think.

    Wouldn't have happened if they weren't a pack of scrotes and mentally challenged being urged on by trump. Making excuses for them and blaming the media doesn't change that fact.

    He's out of office in 13 days and they want to launch an impeachement?

    Is this a joke.

    If they are successful he can never run for office again.

    So no, it's not a joke.

    Tonight's episode of "The USA has gone to ****e" was boring.

    The finale is fast approaching.
    Nothing can top yesterday.

    CNN must have some post office deal with Trump. A weekly reality show or something.

    Biden far too boring for them.

    yeah i forgot you couldn't look at any pictures cos you don't believe any of them.

    If impeached and removed then he can't pardon his crimes relating to the impeachment and may face criminal charges on top of it as well as not being able to run again


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,405 ✭✭✭✭hotmail.com

    The message was meant for me I think.

    It shows how tetchy and sensitive people have become when it comes to Trump.

    Some posters unable to deal with American events with a sense of humour.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 86,725 ✭✭✭✭Overheal


    Aw ok, there is some logic in it so.

    Indeed. Unless convicted by impeachment he could still, immediately upon resignation or lesser removal, still run for office again. In fact I suspect the plan was to announce his 2024 run to counter program bidens inauguration. To give him legitimacy to keep grifting his supporters for money (he got at least half a billion dollars from them in the last 2 months). It also would have made indicting and prosecuting him less appealing to politicians.

    Conviction in an impeachment insures the individual can never hold any other office of honor, trust, or profit in the USA. It would also critically freeze his power to pardon.

    Fair enough so!

    Making sure he can't run again sounds appealing to me. Not so appealing for CNN and their ratings.

    Jesus Christ - that tweet! What benefit would causing a war be to him though?!

    I wish they'd go all the way and just have a civil war. All this pussyfooting theatrics is kinda sad

    Last night was like Ramsey Bolton finally getting his comeuppance in Game of Thrones. It was never as good when it got rid of one of its biggest villains..

    I don't think they should invoke the 25th. This presidency has already broken precedent too many time, we don't need to normalize invoking the 25th, you will end up with it being invoked with greater frequency.

    Huge sense of relief today here after the madness. Allowed to leave work early yesterday as those new clips were coming through and couldnt help myself giving some of the maskless fascists a volley of abuse on way home. To me not only are they ignorant and stupid but not American. They come to the capital city with their hate, bile and ultimately this riot will be a super spreader. These people are traitors. End of.

    As usual the police in all of its guises and layers here have to shoulder the blame and for taking selfies with these vermin. As my non white friends point out a whole different outcome if they had even tried to climb the steps yesterday. See June 1 and Swann Street as examples.

    This morning a few miscreants remained but none were wearing their MAGA rubbish. Cowards as they had so much bravado yesterday and now they slink out of town. Plus reports of businesses in Arlington being ransacked doesnt surprise.

    Saw something this morning on way off metro that spoke volumes. A middle aged couple with no masks getting help from a masked up Metro employee as they didnt know how to operate the vending machine.

    I have zero sympathy for the deceased at the Capitol.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 86,725 ✭✭✭✭Overheal


    They would have held Pence et al. Hostage or held public executions if the Capitol police had failed to protect them. https://twitter.com/honeychile15/status/1347316994853515264?s=21

    NOT using it sets a precedent too.

    The net result from these events yesterday seems to be that Trump said he'll transfer power, the first time he's said that.
