Pure political theatre, with no substance behind it.

Impeachment is a political process. So yes it’s always political theater. It has more substance than the Trump impeachments. Biden has some answer to give for his behavior
Im sorry I must have missed some big news because I don’t recall Biden inciting an insurrection.
Can you bring me up to speed on this with some reputable sources?
I don’t recall Trump inciting one either but I never claimed Biden did.
Biden is being impeached for corruption. Hunters laptop exposed just how corrupt Joe is.
If you haven’t noticed the trend I will spell it out for you.
The “evidence” on the laptop never existed.
Just like the WMDs and the Iraqi’s stealing incubators in Kuwait it is a lie.
One you ate up with no evidence because it lets you believe “the other team” are every bit as corrupt as your own “team” clearly is.
The evidence has been validated.
You have a cite that it’s false? It’s dkim signed.
You’re the first person I’ve heard claim it’s false.
It’s quite the bubble you live in if this is the first time you’ve heard it.
As I said there is a clear pattern of behaviour and there is zero reason to expect differently this time.
Oh and a neat factor may be that Im a cyber security expert, and I can tell you that laptop is worse than worthless.
For 7 years Republicans have been screeching about Hunter and… nothing.
Meanwhile Trumps maga insurrectionists are all going to jail.
But there's an informant!
Once again did you have a cite? Or are you going to keep lying? The laptop has confirmed to be true.
And no you’re not a cybersecurity expert. lol. Jesus.
You have a cite that it’s false?

t’s dkim signed.
Prove it.
Who could have guessed the Hunter claims were fake? No one! Absolutely no one.
LMAO
There you go doing your silliness again.
What a compelling argument you've put forth
Your argument was some idiots response. You reap what you sow
Winter, can you at least bother with an argument?
Pizza, please stop replying when you've reported a comment.
Starting to feel like I should make that a rule.
Pizza, please stop replying when you’ve reported a comment.
When you fail to act on a report, I'm left with the conclusion that you believe a given comment to be civil enough. At that point you have no argument. Either act on reports or quit complaining that things turn into slap fights. Fuck around enough and have fun getting the community banned.
Look at his bad faith comment and you’ll see why I responded the way I did. It’s pizza trolling again.
Dang...people really do deny that Trump incited a insurrection. Y'all are wild.
We all watched him do it, caught red-handed, and then we're supposed to be like, but he's innocent until proven guilty!. Therefore he did nothing wrong.
That state between conviction and innocence is true for every criminal. Hell, the argument that "illegal" immigrants are invading the country is undermined by the conservative stance on Trump. Yeah, we can see videos of immigrants entering the country, but they're not convicted of anything, and therefore are innocent
To insist on the innocence of Trump over the innocence of immigrants is purely motivated reasoning. It just shows clearly that conservatives couldn't care less about principles, even those as immutable as basic logic, but are openly and proudly self-serving.
And the conduct of Hunter Biden reflects on Joe to the same extent the conduct of a crackhead reflects on any rich parent.
Also, just to twist the knife, Biden isn't on Epstein's list. But Trump is! Multiple times even!

Jan 6 wasnt an insurrection, it was a protest.

Trump did not incite jan 6.
Protests don't break into buildings hosting elections. Trump is their leader, who intentionally riled them up with lies and sent them in.
Have you seen the footage? They basically just walked around for a few hours. And it wasn't broken into, they were literally waved in.
Trump literally told them to go home.
Have you seen the footage?
I have. I remember the videos of them breaking the windows, pushing down the gates and doors, and forcing our electors from their chambers to stop the election. None of which are simply "protest".
Trump literally told them to go home.
Quit lying

Literally the last tweet: "Go home with love & in peace."
These are the things and events that happen when a sacred landslide election victory is so unceremoniously & viciously stripped away from great patriots who have been badly & unfairly treated for so long.
You can't just ignore the majority of the tweet, especially while pointing to the very literal last tweet of the day, after all the events transpired.
We all watched him do it, caught red-handed, and then we're supposed to be like, but he's innocent until proven guilty!. Therefore he did nothing wrong
Just saying "we watched it" doesn't actually mean it happened. You're free to just be wrong
