> [@Aspenglow](#): > > Cleverly said. > > My understanding is that Trump had a hard time retaining counsel because of his reputation for not listening to their advice and not paying them. He’s got Kasowitz and Sekulow, and he recently retained Ty Cobb. First Frederick Douglass, now Ty Cobb. When will this plundering of our nation’s graveyards end? Sad! ---

> [@Crotalus](#): > > Remember that he cast what he thought was an aspersion on the judge in the Trump University case, has denigrated the security agencies who probably have recordings of everything he has said on a telephone to any foreign national, has shown public disrespect for the FBI which is still involved in investigating him. He seems incapable of allowing rational thought to regulate his impulses. And the very worst part of it is, HE ALWAYS GETS AWAY WITH IT. ---

> [@Czarcasm](#): > > It’s looking pretty bad when people, in the interest of peace and stability, halfway hope for a military coup d’état. We have the tools to do it, peacefully and legally, IF the Congress was not so full of corruption and greed and Freedom Caucus/Tea Party/Dominionist psychos. Impeachment and Article 25 both provide ways to do it legally and peacefully. And if the Trumpies ever really did pull off the civil war/revolt they like to threaten us with, I would take great pleasure in seeing them hang. All legal and proper. ---

> [@ThelmaLou](#): > > If Trump keeps insulting McConnell, it could happen. I hope it does happen. I hope he keeps poking McConnell (who is a dirtbag too), to the point that the Turtle Guy has to do it. And just as he makes Dump finally go away in disgrace and ruin and hopefully to prison, Turtle Guy falls dead of a massive heart attack or stroke. because in the end, we need for him to GTFO too. ---

> [@ThelmaLou](#): > > If Trump keeps insulting McConnell, it could happen. As someone noted above, impeachment starts in the House, which means that Ryan’s the one who has to be pressured into kicking things off. McConnell can’t do a thing about it unless Mango Mussolini is actually impeached, then the trial in the Senate can begin. The Senate can’t put him on trial until he’s impeached. ---

Yea, but if McConnell were firmly on Trump’s side, were the House to vote for impeachment, the Senate would have been an impenetrable roadblock. Now… maybe not. ---

But the House has to get off the dime. They won’t until it becomes a “him or us” situation. If it happens, it won’t be for the good of the nation, it will be to save their own sorry stinking asses. ---

> [@Locrian](#): > > (missed window) > > Seriously, why throw in “JOBS!” at the end of that? It’s like saying, “I can’t stand fake news! BUTTERSCOTCH!” The Council was supposed to like a think tank for bringing back jobs(among other things). Apparently, Trump isn’t quite the clever job creator he claimed he was.
