I understand the sentiment. I’d prefer to wait for the mother fucker to get indicted. ---

“We’re gonna impeach the motherfucker”. Sounds like she’s mad as hell and she’s not gonna take it anymore. I have a problem with anyone who ISN’T upset with Trump, so she’s ok in my book. I mean, she sort of projected a move, and that’s dumb, from an opsec perspective. Unless she’s engaging in some high level psyops trolling on the Kommander in Chief, in which case, again, she’s ok in my book. Anyone care to read my book? Or subscribe to my newsletter? ---

If she did it on the floor of Congress, then it is a breach of decorum and should be treated as such. If not then who cares? ---

> [@bionic\_man](#): > > What do you dopes think of this congresswoman using profanity and calling for trumps impeachment?/ I like her response that she would always speak truth to power. She did not apologize. Good for her. Has this given Repblicans the swoons? Because if so, they really REALLY don’t want to hear the things Trump says. Rock on, Rashida! Sez me. ---

It strikes me as fairly unprofessional. Also trivial. Meh. I don’t have the link handy. Wasn’t she at her victory party or something when she said it? It seemed like an unofficial gathering with lots of excited people cheering. Like **Saint Cad** said, if she’d said it on the floor of the House or something, I might be inclined to care a little. And, yeah, anyone who supports Trump is in no position to criticize another politician for unprofessional language. ETA: Thanks, **RTFirefly** ---

Rashida Tlaib’s use of profanity. It didn’t go well. “Leader McCarthy, with all due respect though, the president not too long ago referred to a woman as ‘horseface,’” Durkin said, referring to [a tweet Trump posted](https://twitter.com/realDonaldTrump/status/1052213711295930368) in October slamming Stormy Daniels, a woman who claims she had an affair with him and was paid to remain silent about it. “Who within your caucus called out the president for that type of language?” McCarthy, without citing any examples, responded by saying, “I think a lot of them did.” He then walked off before reporters could ask him any follow-ups.
