Trump-Ukraine Imbroglio: Who Is That Whistleblower? - Page 167 - Politics and Society -- Two Plus Two Poker Forums

I wouldn't "beat that dead horse" if the Demos hadn't been so smug about the whole thing.
They really embarrassed themselves and will suffer down the road for it...

2018.

Since he appeared on the scene he has degenerated from Mitt "Greg "nuclear holocaust" Stillson" Romney into Mitt "mom jeans" Romney. He's softened up like a spoiled tomato and is clearly senile and a loser. No wonder the democrats love him these days.

But I'm not too interested in arguing semantics and my point is self-evidently true. Everyone can walk away from this thread thinking they were correct. You guys got Trump and he'll go down in history as being impeached. Joe will think it was a witch hunt and I'll think it was theater.

uhhhhh luckbox. it WAS theater

The former 2+2 politics community on a forum they established. Nothing like what pleasurehimself describes. Most of my time there is spent reading (and learning) rather than posting because the post/discussion/debate quality is relatively high.

Some of you snowflakes seem pretty butthurt over Romney. Authoritarians do hate dissent.

I saw nothing wrong with Max's posts providing factual responses to joedipshit's opinionated drivel either.

And more from the Romney is full of it department.

Quote:

Just in case you weren’t sure if Romney’s vote was principled or about being an attention hog, there’s yet more evidence it’s the latter.

As my colleague Jennifer Van Laar noted on Twitter yesterday, Romney had two embargoed interviews lined up, held his decision until right before the vote, and then strutted around like he’d just saved the republic. So the idea that this was just a solemn, serious decision for him doesn’t hold water.

But apparently, his virtue signaling knows no bounds, because it’s now been revealed that he also sent a letter to all the GOP Senate members lecturing them on why he voted the way he did.

What's wrong with any of that? Is none of it consistent with a principled stance?

I think there is a misconception that every individual made their votes along party lines and no one made a principle vote except those who agree with us. That line of thinking is reasonable because of Washington but I think it's still bullshit.

Do we get to invalidate the votes of acquittal from Republicans who gave interviews and made bold claims about how they had helped save the country, too?

Mitt Romney is the only U.S. Senator to vote for conviction of a President from his own party, ever. That's how grevious Trump's actions were and how obvious it is that he is guilty. Romney was very recently the GOP posterboy and their actual nominee for President. Like all dissenters against election-interference bot-aided propaganda-industry-supported cheat-at-all-costs Trump, he will now be smeared relentlessly to send a message to others considering any criticism of the GOP dear leader.

Trump suffered no damage among his cult while there is significant cost to Romney. That's not payback.

If the shoe was on the other foot you would be holding firm that there is no linkage proving it was payback.

"Everyone knows it" is Trumpism in its full glory.

Do you think not being a fraud is important?

How do you know this? Are you claiming a Mormon doesn't take his faith seriously? Mormons are crazy.

In this instance he's using it as a blatant crutch. It's so obvious, even a blind man could see it.

Funny how the democrats slammed him as a lying scumbag for so many years and all of a sudden he's now Mr Integrity.

Sorry, I'm not buying it.

I hope you're not expecting consistency.
