Senators tend to think of themselves as more refined, above the fray, a cut above the unwashed masses in the House of Representatives. Also, every last one of the bastards believes he'll some day be president so they're very careful about saying anything that can be used against them some day in a political battle. So they speak often, but say little.

Trump's not in trouble in any shape form or fashion that I can discern, though I'm sure you're convinced he's a gnat's ass away from impeachment. And despite the party in the White House typically losing a piss-pot full of seats and control of the House in the off-year election, it ain't gonna happen this year IMHO. Prepare yourself for more partisan FBI spygate nonsense up yours.

Senators have to win a statewide race and arent as prone to appeal to the fringes. The gerrymandered House provides refuge to the wackos.

More bullshirt from Marc...it's sad

The publication of “the Mueller Report” (does that actually exist?) in no way hinges on partisan control of the US House of Representatives.

But I do agree with Marc Mensa’s point that the November 2018 elections to the House of Representatives are critical for the Trump Administration and the country. If Democrats take a majority of the House, the Judiciary Committee under Chairman Nadler will absolutely initiate an impeachment inquiry. Indeed, I suspect such an inquiry would be the Committee’s very first order of business. If the Democrats can take a majority with at least 8-9 seats to spare, then the result of the inquiry becomes a foregone conclusion, and the Democrat-controlled House will definitely vote to impeach President Trump.

Whether the American voters support such actions, or not, is the most pertinent question as they get ready to vote for Congressional candidates later this year.

Impeach the guy for what? I guess kicking liberal azz is now impeachable, according to liberals.

If that indeed occurred I honestly think civil unrest would be uglier than any of us have seen in our lifetime.

It probably is. But they’ll dress it up with fancy words and legal phrases. If they get the chance.

I could see that happening. But if the GOP keeps its current majority, the whole discussion becomes moot.

The simple fact that IF the libs gain the majority they would CONSIDER impeachment is ridiculous in and of itself and points to who these people really are. And that's pathetic actually.

thats exactly how Marco Rubio sounded in the article...

“What I have seen is evidence that they were investigating individuals with a history of links to Russia that were concerning,” Rubio explained, continuing, “It appears that there was an investigation not of the campaign, but of certain individuals who have a history that we should be suspicious of, that predate the presidential campaign of 2015, 2016. And when individuals like that are in the orbit of a major political campaign in America, the FBI, who is in charge of counterintelligence investigations, should look at people like that.”

Sooooo, where was the investigation into Pedo-desta’s and Bubba? Writ-The Cank campaign?

You can’t be serious with this tripe, can you?

Bless your heart...

Yup.

The last first term Pres lost an astounding 63! seats in the first off year House elections. I think it was termed “a shellacking”.

Clearly anything short of that is an utter failure.

Wait. What?

Senators have to win a statewide race?!? Since when? I thought the State legislatures picked them?

Nope. They got NO chance of voting out articles of impeachment without actual proof of criminal wrong-doing. They might get to say 60 votes of the Maxine Waters, Al Green, Ellison Ilk. That’s about it.

Believe it or not there are still some relatively sane members of the dim House.

They try and pull a stunt like that “jus cause” and they’ll lose 85 seats two years hence.

The Observer: How the FBI Investigation Into Russia and Trump Campaign Actually Started

Senator Marco Rubio, a Republican, was equally blunt in his weekend comments on “Spygate,” explaining in an acid-etched interview that he has seen “no evidence” that the FBI spied on the Trump campaign. Since Rubio sits on the Senate Intelligence Committee, which is less plagued by partisanship than its House counterpart, his comments deserve an airing. “What I have seen is evidence that they were investigating individuals with a history of links to Russia that were concerning,” Rubio explained, continuing, “It appears that there was an investigation not of the campaign, but of certain individuals who have a history that we should be suspicious of, that predate the presidential campaign of 2015, 2016. And when individuals like that are in the orbit of a major political campaign in America, the FBI, who is in charge of counterintelligence investigations, should look at people like that.”

CONSIDER THE SOURCE

Marco Rubio. The man who states I always vote Yes or No, Never present. Said this during his campaign for President. A week later he voted present. So excuse me for not wetting myself when he's got a bombshell.

Obama called it a shellacking. Trump uses a more fitting term.
