Well the wouldn’t really want to use the OMB opinion to support charging him with a crime since Obama fought two such rulings by OMB during his tenure as well.
OMB is not part of the judiciary and their rulings really have no force of law or precedent.
They would have to file suit in federal court seeking a judgement and even if they did it would simply be a civil judgement.
Damaging hearsay at best as the House provided as a foundation for their charges.
I can’t believe…after the partisan and secretive investigations the Democrats conducted in their congress…they have the gall and temerity to ask that the Republican Senate to conduct an open & impartial trial.
Go to hell you hypocritical & insufferable pig whores.
They held completely open televised hearings for the whole world to see. What are you talking about???
Trump will not be impeached by the Senate.
Lefties will moan and groan.
Trump will be elected in 2020.
Lefties will moan and groan.
Meh.
What is impeachment about. After some thought I suspect it is to remove an unusually successful president without the risk of an election, to hamper his ability to function while in office.
It appears that they likely couldn’t beat him with the current crop of idiots who have turned in the clown bus for a clown mini van.
When did they release the video of the closed hearings? I must have missed that.
Correct. it serves a dual purpose. They had been promising their radical base they’d find a way to impeach him and when they cuoldn’t it became apparent that he had probably a 95% or better chance of winning reelection.
When they couldn’t fabricate any crimes much less find them, they came up with two articles of impeachment so non specific and open ended as to be utterly laughable and went ahead anyhow satisfying their radical base, and launching a Hail Mary in an attempt to damage him as much as possible politically and to call attention away from just how bad their own candidates are.
It is rather incredible, Liberal politicians and their media hacks have been pushing a coordinated talking point: “Senators should act like impartial jurors.” Yet it was their partisan politics in the House that made this mess.
Chuck Schumer of 2019 contradicts his recent statements. He’s given numerous fiery speeches on the Senate floor blasting Trump on Ukraine — his mind is clearly made up. Other senators have made up their minds as well: Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) stated “Donald Trump is the most corrupt president in history, and he must be held accountable. I strongly believe the announcement of articles of impeachment are appropriate and necessary.” Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) called for impeachment five months before the House began impeachment proceedings.
Are these the impartial jurors they refer to?
Despite the mountain of evidence showing Democrats’ prejudice on impeachment, the media is only grilling Republicans on whether they’ll be “impartial.” Of course, they didn’t hold House Democrats or senators running for president to the same standard, alleging they were the prosecutors, not a jury.
Yes, the left is open minded, ROTFLMAO.
The open charges with no specifics was done purposely to get it out now and to put the burden on the Senate hammering them to allow the manager to call witnesses when they had the opportunity to do it them selves.
The progressive leftists are nothing but a bunch of hypocrites.
Look how they whine here.
The democrats has ensured that IMPEACHMENT is weaponized for future presidents.
You created it you get to live with it!!!
Republicans are less likely to use these unethical tactics. Democrats are inherently sleazy.
Once the gene is out of the bottle it’s fair game for all.
Much like the nuclear option in the Senate, after Dirty Harry’s grand deed, why not.
Incredibly short sighted on the part of the dems. It reeks of desperation.
What are they trying to protect? What are they trying to hide that they would gamble like this?
Their incredible dislike for this president makes for stupid decisions.
I often wonder if it’s related to the poor management of the lead democrats or is it just that the new members are so polarized that has turned a once reasonable party into what we see today.
Makes no difference as the left will follow regardless of the consequences.
They’ve been successfully and incrementally brainwashing the public. All was going as planned until Trump was elected. He put a stop to the progressive agenda.
Trump is temporary.
They are not.
They do not like being exposed.
Yet, they have been.
Isn’t it funny how so many here bitch about how Trump should be impeached but very little is mentioned on how Democrats are rigging the game again to favor Biden? Just like Hillary in 2016!
No, it really isn’t funny, but I get your meaning 
I really don’t want to live in a world ruled by socialists.
I highly doubt anyone who understands what that mean would, either.
Likely over half of the corrupt Democrats in our government. The other half hasn’t been exposed yet.
Probably should have used “Ironic” instead, you are right it’s not funny, but just pointing out the obvious double standard that leftist so often reveal whenever they cry about issues while ignoring their hypocrisy.
