Who cares if Trump supporters are further alienated? I sure don't.

Will this impeachment further divide the country?
- Thread starter crossfire

I am all for that!!!!!
Following the rule of law is the very foundation of a Republic.
and both of them "baaaa". I wonder if each side thinks the other is the goat when, in reality, there are goats on both sides as well as sheep.
This is the basis for being a Republican? And bringing unity?
Or, I just don't follow what you are trying to say.
Can't argue what is. Never denied what has happened.Well, Donald Trump was just impeached yesterday in the most bipartisan impeachment vote in the history of the United States.
So, there's that.
Ohhh... so the left are saints that has never forgotten about common ground when it had power.
Did I tell you that I own the Brooklyn bridge and I want you to buy it?

Impeachment is the guaranty that he won't come back.

Not very uplifting when there need to be 17 out of 50 in the Senate. But I think that's a different situation.

Actually, until the 6th, the "mainstream media" was not leading with any bleeding. They were reporting on the right-wing nutjobs, led by the likes of Giuliani and Powell, screaming about election fraud. They were reporting on the failed BS lawsuits. They were reporting on Trump and company's continued lies about election fraud. They were reporting on the court cases that found that Trump's allegations were lies.
On the sixth, they did show bleeding. Bleeding caused by an angry mob of white supremacists, conspiracy nut-jobs, and Trump Sheeples. Note, those terms are not mutually exclusive. Many Trump Sheeples are also white supremacists, conspiracy nut-jobs. Should the MSM have instead shown General Hospital or a zoo's Panda Cam?

The impeachment charge is incitement of insurrection.
Yep. A non-partisan court trial will suffice to bar him from office if he is found guilty. No Senate trial needed to ensure this.

Trump will not be removed from being a political threat.
Mr. Donald Trump will continue to lead his base. His base will continue to swallow every lie he tells. The Office of the Presidency did not deter him very much, but the members of his inner circle and his cabinet probably kept a lid on his most outrageous actions. Citizen Donald Trump will have no holds barred.
Whoever he chooses as his successor (my money is on Ivanka) Donald will be there, propping her up with unabashed lies about everything.

The impeachment vote for Nixon was 412 to 3. So this vote was no where close to being the most bipartisan impeachment vote of the US.
Also... no Democrats voted against impeachment of Trump in addition to there being less than 5% of the Republican representatives to vote for impeachment of Trump. It's a partisan vote.
10 representatives is less than 5% of the Republican party. You really think this is significant for the House?
Fact-check: How many bipartisan bills has Congress passed?
Sean Theriault, a government professor at the University of Texas, said her use of the term bipartisan is fair.
“It’s certainly not telling the whole truth, but a single vote from the other side does indicate that it enjoys support from both parties,” he said in an email. “So, of course, we would prefer Escobar to say, ’275 bills that have received at least support from one Republican are sitting on McConnell’s desk,′ but calling them ‘bipartisan’ is not wrong.”
There were 251 bills that passed the House with a majority of both parties.“It’s certainly not telling the whole truth, but a single vote from the other side does indicate that it enjoys support from both parties,” he said in an email. “So, of course, we would prefer Escobar to say, ’275 bills that have received at least support from one Republican are sitting on McConnell’s desk,′ but calling them ‘bipartisan’ is not wrong.”
If I understand you correctly, then we should compare to the Senate. How likely do you think it is that Trump is convicted in the Senate? Do you think more than 5% of Republican Senators will vote to convict? Do you think any Democrat Senators will vote to acquit? I think it is unlikely.

LoL! There would be special interest stories from inside the mob in the capitol if the Left occupied it for like 3 months like Portland. Pelosi would claim she "donated" her office to be used!

Too few. (Except when it's about the military or corporate welfare.)
Politics (and not only US) has more and more become a power play.
E.g. Merrick Garland. McConnell prevented his hearing in the Senate "because he could". It was a declared goal of the republicans to undermine every effort by Obama, no matter the topic. That was the official end of bipartisanship.
The US, and especially the GOP, needs a discussion about values, common values. The conservatives were once a party that held their values up. Today, the majority has given them all up for power.

And yet you supported and furthered lies and conspiracy theories about the election.
You even poo-hood the results of court cases stating "Just wait until the Supreme Court hears it".

You denied the legitimate results of the election.
Or, have you already forgotten that you did?
