Rep. Jim Jordan (R-Ohio) on Sunday predicted that Democrats will impeach Trump for a third time between his two presidencies if they take control of the House after the November midterm elections.

Jordan suggested in an interview on “Cats Roundtable,” the WABC 770 AM radio show hosted by John Catsimatidis, that Democrats will take the legislative branch’s oversight capability “and turn it into a weaponization of government.”

“They say they’re not going to, but we know they will –– they’ll do a third impeachment of President Trump,” Jordan told the host. “But that’s just part of it. They’re going to investigate the first family, they’re going to investigate cabinet secretaries.”

    Just kill the bastard and be done with it. The senate will never approve his removal so this does nothing besides make morons happy that something was tried…for a third failed time.

    This is the kind of bi-partisan nature I expect in the US.

    Republicans campaigning for Democrats and Democrats campaigning for Republicans.

    I couldn’t get further than this:

    “And then they’ll also, I think, go after people in the private sector,” Jordan continued. “They’re going to go up for any business who, as an example, you got businesses who helped paper the inauguration, which happened every four years … [Democrats] are going to somehow say, ‘Oh, these businesses have done something wrong.'”

    Reverse Victim and Offender.

    The appropriately named Liar Liar has some excellent advice for how Trump (and his cabinet and family) could avoid further criminal investigations, impeachment, and congressional oversight hearings:

    Holy shit would they have a long list of charges at this point…

    Democrats will take the legislative branch’s oversight capability “and turn it into a weaponization of government.”

    Don’t forget to always accuse others of the shit you’re doing.

      The biggest bullshit is that legally speaking, he will get away with everything he did. the supreme court declared that everything the president does is legal. that was some major bullshit.

      Impeachment itself means nothing. But they can open investigations into all sorts of stuff under the guise of impeachment preparation. They can bring everything to light and leak it all to the press. Done correctly, the whole first family can be dragged through the gutters forever.

        Done correctly

        Two little words doing some heavy lifting there.

        Dems couldn’t “done correctly” a fuck in a brothel.

    Not they the dems will bring articles of impeachment, but that he’ll actually be impeached.

    Interesting.

      Technically all that means is that the articles of impeachment pass the House.

      Trump has been impeached twice already, the Republican controlled Senate refused to convict.

          Oh I know the difference. I don’t think he’ll actually be impeached, much less removed.

          But what I meant was Gym J. Didnt say they’ll bring articles of impeachment. He said they’ll impeach. This means he thinks they’ll be able to.

          I’m actually skeptical.
