Joe Walsh actually has confidence in the impeachment to remove Trump.
How can anyone rely on the election when Mueller, Coats, Wray, Comey all told us UNDER OATH that it is rigged "as we sit here"?
All it takes for Trump to win is for several states to be hacked/botched in the tally, then referred to SCOTUS for resolution.
Voila. He's in and enabled.

We all know he fears ending his days inside for life.
And no weak General, nor Admiral, nor Secret Service Leader does anything, doesn't say a word against that bone-spurs clown... like they always do...

(13,571 posts).....and who (given that we have little hope for a fair election considering what we have been promised by Comey, Coats, Wray, Mueller UNDER OATH) must see McConnell's refusal to bring election security to a vote...
I guess the whole shebang has no hope at all for you. It's over, then. Trump for life.
Impeachment a bust.
Election already lost.

(13,571 posts)That's why we can't risk waiting for the election to save us. If he's not removed before, he will seize power in every part of government.

I don't know where you are getting that it is rigged and over. Yes the russians will try. So will dark money. And many other things.

(13,571 posts)Mueller said it's rigged "AS WE SIT HERE."
Daily I read the "hair on fire" of the election security experts who are screaming of the risk.
I'm not breaking people's spirit. I'm pushing for people to consider the risk of waiting for a rigged election.

(118,865 posts)to convict. The election will be monitored. I'm sure the Democrats have better security than the last election. It is in no way over. We can hope for impeachment being upheld or convicted in the senate but we should not have high hopes. We don't have the numbers to convict. We may have the numbers to get witnesses. We only require 4 more. So we can hope for that big time this weekend. And call your senator if they are Republican again and again this weekend. Just get a cup of tea, sit down by the phone, and call all local and washington phone numbers.
One of the DU rules is not to create apathy. People should be spring loaded to vote vote vote, not told their vote does not matter.
