No, I simply listened to his words, and didn't try to divine hidden meanings behind them. When the # has trump ever minced words? If he wanted people to try and take the capital by force, he would have said grab your #in guns and take the capital by force.

Damn right. There were something like a half-million Trump supporters in Washington on January 6th. If Trump had wanted violence, Washington would have burned.

Instead, Trump explicitly called for peaceful protest, and the only people who caused trouble were apparently pre-positioned ahead of time. Seriously, they were at the capitol before Trump even finished speaking, and the people at Trump's rally wouldn't arrive for another hour or so. (It's about 2 miles between the National Mall and Capitol Hill.)

Also, the only violence came when a capitol cop shot a protestor without justification. Multiple videos make it clear the capitol police allowed the protestors to enter without hindrance, so any claims that they "broke into" the capitol are straight-up lies.

This impeachment vote has as much substance as a nun’s fart.

Which, depending on whether she ate at Taco Bell, or the Olive Garden will determine the true seriousness of the situation...

I just moved there myself. Unloaded the truck at the new house today.

I really feel like Nancy and the dems goal all along was to make an example of Trump....going after him until he and his family and are ruined. They don't want any other rich personalities from the outside running and succeeding with the American people. It's only their pre-ordained few that are allowed....and even then, they will choose who becomes the nominee.

FBI says Trump not responsible for riots, the Democrats are.

Every new President should be impeached as a rite of passage and wear it as a badge of honor, it is the latest cool thing in congress.

That must be why they moved the goalposts. Now the impeachment is because of the Georgia. S.o.S call.

Theatre show, it’s no wonder politicians are winning awards normally given to actors. This is a way to condemn in the court of public opinion without having any laws broken or validity to claims, just having the vote count as the OP proudly displays. Senate vote takes place when again?

Most Republican voters don't feel that Trump should be impeached. The Senate has six confirmed Republicans that will vote for impeachment. With McConnell It maybe seven but don't know about that guy.

Most of the House Republicans don't believe Trump did anything wrong and wanted to bend the rules of the proceedings to have a bipartisan committee formed for further investigation.

Trump will slip through this one like poop through a goose.

Very improbable that 17 Senate Republicans will vote for impeachment.

I bet Nancy woke up today with no sense of internal satisfaction.

President Trump didn't even mention the impeachment in his 5 minute video statement last night.

President Trump's approval rating went up 2 points. (47% to 49%)

Donald John Trump is now more popular than Barack Hussein Obama. First time any man has been more popular than BHO.

Nope...Just more drinking by Nancy, to kill her misery.

Wonder if leadership in the houses plan to use this to delay any work being done on the stimulus.

This impeachment is even more unconstitutional than the last one... In this one they didn't even allow President Trump to defend himself or to show evidence he didn't incite the violence... Well, in the first one it was the same as the socialist, former democrat, leaders didn't allow President Trump or his lawyer to defend him. But the socialist, former democrat, leaders passed this impeachment even faster than the first one... The socialist, former democrat, leaders instead hurried up the impeachment and stepped all over the U.S. Constitution and President's Trumps right to defend himself...

What's more, the rioters were over 1 mile away, and they weren't watching President Trump's speech... They were rioting even before President Trump had finished his speech...

Not to mention the FACT that the riots were orchestrated and planned days or so before the riots occurred...

How could President Trump have incited the riot when the riot was pre-planned, and was occurring before the President finished speaking?

Not to mention that nowhere did the President say that people should riot... "we will fight, we will fight" is not a call to arms when he was talking about peacefully protesting...
