Wow. What an uphill battle the Democrats have before them. How will they EVER be able to prove how unfit for office Trump is? Wow. A commission!
What a colossal f*cking waste of time. Just 25th him, already. You've got every damn day Trump's been in office for the last 10 years as evidence. Quit jerking off and do your jobs.
Learn how the government works if you’re gonna prescribe how it should act. The Democrats have no power to 25th him- only his hand picked cabinet can do that.
Now they DO need to be filing impeachment every time he does something wrong and just add it to the growing list and make them have to go through all of it every time. That’s all they can really do.
... nothing is ever good for people like you
People like you are easily placated by insincere token gestures.
No, I just see the bigger picture and understand how things actually work instead or some fantasy where Dems have power
S.1071 - National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2026
The majority of Dems are complicit - occasionally even enthusiastic - for these atrocities.
The fantasy is believing anyone's vote will be changed by a commission, oh great big picture understander.
Its worked before...
What do you mean?
Commissions expose truth, people pay attention, votes can change
