At this point, the future of the nation and all of us in it abused by Donald Trump, his cult followers and toadies is crystal clear: Donnie’s gotta go.
So it doesn’t matter how bad the red-state bloodbath ends up being when the final results of the election fall into place. Tried and true and unavoidable polling up to the election made it clear the nation has had it with Genghis Gaslighter and the chumps he once frightened into submission in Congress and at Fox News.
The gig’s up, Donnie. Everybody is on to you.
If he weren’t the buttocks-gawking, genital-grabbing, conniving, lying, racist, and corrupt creeper that he is, he would be cogent enough to pull a Nixon and head for the White House door before a giant impeachment and conviction kicks him in the ass.
Donnie, “do you hear the people sing?”
More than two-thirds of everyone who lives in what’s left of the United States thinks Donnice the Menace has done to the nation exactly what most of us knew he would do to the country.
It’s only a matter of time, probably before the end of January, that the impeachment choir starts harmonizing again at the Capitol.
Why wait?
Those Republicans who survived the voter backlash this time will finally see that two more years of being Trumped will lead to zero Republicans left in any elected office anywhere.
No need to put a lot of thought into this, folks. Red, red, red state Tennessee Congressperson Steve Cohen, who has long sat on the House Judiciary Committee, and who is a verifiable expert on all kinds of messy impeachment stuff, has conveniently laid out what needs to be done — before Donnie does more damage.
“Trump is clearly the most impeachable President our country has ever endured. His continued presence in office is a danger to our democracy,” Cohen, a Democrat, said in a statement. “That the sycophantic Republican majority in Congress is derelict in its duty does not mean that I must abandon my responsibilities. When historians write about this period, and our constituents ask who stood up to President Trump’s lawlessness, this resolution is the answer.”
And here’s the short list of laws and constitutional tenets broken before we even get to Donnie’s next scammy scheme or Trumpertantrum.
Cohen’s 26 articles of impeachment, ready to roll:
• Article I: Undermining Democracy — Sowing Doubt In Elections
• Article II: Abuse Of Power — Waging War On Iran Without Congressional Approval
• Article III: Abuse Of Power — Extrajudicial Killings In International Waters Of Venezuela

Oh, sure, there’s more since Cohen released his list of crimes in September. But no doubt, this will get the ball rolling down every street in the nation that has been plagued by Donnie’s dumb, and that’s with a “b,” illegal and unconscionable deeds.
This isn’t about vengeance, it’s about justice and a Herculean effort to save the Republic.
Get the folks together in Congress who “told ya so” and those whose careers have been destroyed by their allegiance to the “frickin genius” in chief, and get this impeachment thing over so we can all move one while we’re still able to move.

Mr. Perry – You are setting yourself up for one major disappointment with your impeachment fantasies. Moreover, President Trump is likely to do a “Joe Biden” and pardon everyone in his cabinet and beyond. But congratulations on your team’is election victories. The woke communist revolution is moving forward and Americans may soon get a taste of what they seem to desire.
