Re: trump Inpeachment...............
Change the name of the thread to "How easily will Trump get re-elected in 2020?"
I like Trump but this is not about him as much as the group of bums the Democrats are running right now.

Trump has done some good things economically but I could never vote for him due to his racist and xenophobic tendencies. It just doesn't jive with me and I can't look past it. He also has done some nasty things against the longevity and sustainability of our planet for short term economic gains. |

The political is easy, if the world is doomed in 15 years we must elect the politicians now to prevent it. But when will us citizens, intelligent as they are, realize that for the pokiticians it isn't about saving the world, it is a out saving their power and scaring their base. It is a tried and true tactic of all politicians, left and right. The second reason doomsday is always 15-30 years away is because, and I know this will shock every liberal here, humans adapt and learn and progress WITHOUT government interference. Climate change, even "the planet will die" type is a glacially slow process versus innovation and human adaptability. Yes the planet's ecosystem will continue to change, and the pollution from technologically backward countries with large populations like India, China, and Russia will continue to damage it. The solution is not to sign feel good nanny state regulations but to encourage and strengthen innovation of proven technologies like nuclear and coal that produce energy in cost effective ways, and continue tryin to find new ways to make wind, solar, geo and other reuasable technologies cost effect on a kilowatt per dollar spent By the way, what drives much of the innovation, yup you guessed it - short term economic gains.

Re: trump Impeachment...............
But back to impeachment
Looks like Pelosi will send the articles over this week. If people thought the Cavanaugh hearing was a spectacle just wait till this gets rolling. And god forbid Trump has the opportunity to appoint a SC justice during the impeachment trial. There would be a cosmic liberal meltdown as McConnell pushed the nominee forward.

I could also point out how each senator is going to take an oath to judge the impeachment trial impartially, yet McConnell and Graham have both already said they will be acting as the President's defense (and so will the rest of the Republican majority, despite the Senate oath to act as the jury). Republicans have literally prioritized protecting the president above the Constitution of the United States of America (you know, that holy document that allows you the right to bear arms). In case you forgot: Quote:
I could also point out how every single impeachment trial in the Senate has called witnesses, yet your leaders have already said they won't call any witnesses or listen to new evidence. I could also point out how the entire Republican argument has always gone back to Trump's defense that this is a sham, without debating any of the 8 witnesses who testified in front of the house under penalty of perjury. Your entire argument literally rests on the theory that anyone who hates Trump is biased and therefore is an unreliable witness. I could also point out how Trump was not willing to testify, or let anyone from the executive office testify in front of the House in defense of their actions. In any court of law this would all be major red flags. Trump gets to claim executive privilege though. Congratulations, you've succesfully made the position of POTUS entirely above the law. Hope that double standard applies with the next Democratic president. I could also point out how Republicans have succesfully introduced partisanship to every branch of gov't, from Congress, from the judiciary system, to the highest court of the land, to the intelligence community, to the law enforcement community, all the way down to the state and county level with gerrymandering. Enjoy your day gents, because it certainly won't last forever. I just hope we get to play by the same rules you have introduced. Winning is the name of the game, even at the expense of half of America.

I have no clue about what ficticuous doomsday scenario you are ranting about. If you are talking about things such as oil reserves wil;l be exhausted in 40-60 years. Well of course that is going to fluctuate we, in the scientific field, cannot estimate oil reserves based on future technology that currently doesn't exist that is highly disingenuous and biased. Seconmdly you cannot seriously believe that government regulation has not improved the technology that you have just been discussing. If so you seriously need to go back into the attic and crack open the U.S. history and world history textbooks you should have read in high school. Regulations lead to improved technology that we could then share with developing countries and prevent them from having to spend valuable dollars on research and design. Nobody is suggesting field good "nanny" state regulations you sir are fear mongoring no more no less. Instead he has been weakening the four most important human health legislations in the Clean Air, Clean Water, Safe Drinking Water and Endangered Species Acts. If regulationg our national common resources such as air, water and genetric resources such as biodiversity shouldn't be priority number 2 behind national safety I don't know what the poibnt of a federal government is. As for your last statement that is only true when the current methodology becomes unprofitable. If a government had the foresight to you know decide that hospitilization due to respiratory illness on orange, red and purple air quality days should be paid for by those that are responsible for the air quality you do see innovation, but it comes from ecomic gain driven by regulation. |
