B*llox. That's my prediction out the window.

It's a ploy to change minds in this vote. He may have been told the numbers are very close

He told them in his speech at the Capitol to march peacefully and after rioting broke out condemned it and told them to disperse. It couldn't be clearer.

"I know that everyone here will soon be marching over to the Capitol building to peacefully and patriotically make your voices heard."

I think you're leaving out a bit of the context there, or even 90% of it!

Do you think that it's ok to tell his base for a couple of months that the election was rigged & stolen, and then to organise 'something big' for the 6th, and then to spend the morning whipping the crowd into a frenzy with the same messages?

If you were there and believed what he said don't you think you might be motivated to take a little more action that just marching?

What would you say if one of our own political parties spent a couple of months telling their supporters that an election was rigged & stolen, and then organised a big march on the Dail, reving the crowd up in a similar manner, and with the crowd then ransacking the Dail? Would you say that the party leader had no responsibility for what happened?

I'm guessing around 225-210 in favour.

This "USA, we're number 1" stuff from both Republicans and Democrats is awful cringy nonsense

Democrats queueing up for their chances, all limited to 30 seconds.

Meanwhile the republicans scraping the barrel, giving the most moronic all the time they want. Even time to stand saying nothing.

This is infuriating to watch. That country is doomed.

It’s kind of interesting that the republican efforts to absolve Trump of responsibility for last week effectively throw his supporters under the bus (to the extent that Trump hasn’t done that already). That’s got to piss them off

Yep. Some have splintered off and feel betrayed, according to parler posts before it went offline

It doesn't they would sacrifice all for dear leader.

namloc1980 · 13-01-2021 08:03PM

You have to laugh at these Republicans talking about due process and how unfair it is on Trump. At the last Impeachment trial in the Senate they refused to allow witnesses to testify. Also McConnell and other Republicans made it clear before the Impeachment was even voted on that they would vote to acquit Trump regardless of what was presented to them by the House Articles of Impeachment.

martingriff · 13-01-2021 08:03PM

I wonder given this impeachment trial will be after he is gone will it give an out to Republicans to vote in the Senate for it as he will no longer be a sitting Republican President and can he be removed as part of the Republican Party

Overheal · 13-01-2021 08:04PM

They are managing the debate time for each side. Jordan for the Reps and Nadler for the Dems.

I like the fact that there are really tight time limits. Makes people get straight to the point. But on the other hand, it’s not a debate.....just a series of statements. Don’t understand why they don’t just go straight to the vote, as these sound bites won’t persuade anyone to change their position

Is this the way all ‘debates’ work in the House of Representatives?

Not impeaching Trump will likely come back to bite the Republican Party in 2024.

Ivanka Trump is not expected to attend Biden’s inauguration next week, according to a WH official.
While she respects his transition to power, according to this official, the official notes children of outgoing president’s do not traditionally attend.

Translation

She wasn't invited.

I would doubt it. Democrats will make a big deal but they will come out will changed and focus on what has happened under Biden. The 2022 election will be the ones to watch
