Impreach, censure or nothing???

I have a feeling Trump will insist on a trial simply because of his penchant for getting back at those who ridicule and embarrass him. He will see that as his chance to do so.

I think you are correct and as an old goat that would not readily accept being slandered and "impeached" by those that use fake news to do their dirty work, I would want my say in court to show the voters that the opposition is not fit to hold office.

And get off my lawn you young punks.

He absolutely should. In fact if I had witnesses that could clear my name I would insist on it.

I think Trump wants a trial, and some Senators do as well so they can call the Bidens, etc. The thing is that Mitch and Graham are much more strategic and much more reserved, and don't want a spectacle. They may nix having one with witnesses so Shumer can't jump up and down about calling Bolton etc.

They seem to want this to just go away, but I think they'll have to talk Trump down to do it.

In this issue, they are smarter and less vindictive than me, but I counter with ""if it was Mitch and Graham who had had their chestnuts roasted daily by the socialist darlings of the US house of representatives, and the American mass media, would they be so logical and forgiving""?

Except they can do that without a trial. What he did was against the law and the DOJ has the responsibility to look into it. Don't need to do it in an impeachment trial, can do it on its own.
