Can't run for office again, no lifetime secret service detail, open for more investigation/prosecution, etc.

Accelerationists mad. But I will join the libs and rejoice.

edit: caveat: if they end up getting the votes.

    But mostly because it makes him mad lmao

    Edit. He’s apparently not taking the PGA canceling whatever event they were holding at his property well. Really down and out. Hilarious and there will be a lot more of this

    Imagine if Republicans impeached Biden at the end of his presidency out of spite, and then we just kept on doing it and we never had to pay ex-president salaries again 🤔

    its fine, like get it done before lunch on a tuesday and move on. If it was me, I'd be talking about $2k checks, M4A, drastic climate change, etc. Take your pick of any number of issues that need to be addressed 100 years ago. Worst case, audit him to death/jail after his presidency and throw him into some hole in the ground.

    It also pleases me to think of "stopping the steal" actually resulting in a shorter term for Trump.

    I don’t mind Dems doing this so long as they don’t sweep actual shit like covid relief under the rug. Preventing Trump from running again is worth at least shooting your shot on.

    That being said, Senate won’t convict. GOP knows not to blow up their own party’s base over this. They’ll get Romney, Collins, Murkowski and maybe someone who wants to run in 2024 as the “it’s time to move on” candidate (Ben Sasse?). But if you think a third of the Senate GOP is going to sever all ties from the most popular Republican in the history of the party you’re nuts.

      Him being impeached won't mean Trump-ites abandon him. It's clear with Mitch and Pence being enemies of the Chud now that Trump won't be replaced. Trump will be worshipped till he shits himself to death. (Also Cotton supported peaceful transition to Biden so now he's just a regular R now lol)

    You forgot that he won't get a presidential pension too.
