And we've found a Republican with a conscience!

Republican Rep. Adam Kinzinger (Ill.) on Sunday criticized President Trump for quoting a pastor saying impeachment could trigger a "Civil War-like fracture" in the country.

"I have visited nations ravaged by civil war," Kinzinger tweeted.

"I have never imagined such a quote to be repeated by a President. This is beyond repugnant."

A majority of Americans approve of House Democrats' move to launch a formal impeachment inquiry into President Trump, according to a new CBS News survey conducted by YouGov.

The poll, which was released Sunday morning, found that 55 percent of Americans support an impeachment inquiry, with 35 percent strongly approving and 20 percent somewhat approving the move. Meanwhile, 45 percent of respondents said they disapprove of congressional Democrats' decision to start an impeachment inquiry into Trump.

The show of public support for impeachment comes as Trump faces mounting scrutiny over revelations that he pressured the leader of Ukraine to investigate 2020 presidential candidate Joe Biden and his son Hunter Biden over unsubstantiated allegations of corruption.

A whistleblower complaint released last week accuses the president of "using the power of his office to solicit interference from a foreign government in the 2020 U.S. election."

A White House memo of Trump's July 25 phone call with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky also confirms that the president asked Zelensky to work with his personal attorney Rudy Giuliani and Attorney General William Barr to investigate the Bidens.

Why him in particular?



Portman on June 5: “He [Zelensky] understands it is the only path forward and frankly a linchpin of the U.S. partnership with Ukraine, and as a matter of law, a condition of our future defense assistance”

What did he now and when did he know it?

Will this guy actually vote for impeachment?

I’d bet not!

Wow. You really took it down point by point. Strong comment.


PP is right. And there is nothing of substance here to “take down”. It’s actually all pretty comical.


Comical is indeed the perfect word.

If Dems hadn't spent 3 years crying wolf a million times we might find them more credible this time.


You haven't read the Mueller Report.

And, the Washington Post reported just on Friday that Trump has acknowledged that, in fact, Russia DID interfere with the US election.

So that sort of undermines your argument.


PP, you are so cute assuming that Trumpers know how to read!

Let's face it - Hannity and Judge Jeanine are really our POTUS and VP.

Wonder what's happening in the White House right now? Someone must be changing his diaper.

If Mitch wants to keep his position, he should bring down Pence first and get another VP who could run if Trump crumbles. (See Spiro Agnew and Gerald Ford; shows an R could win.)

Pence's evangelical background is a put off to many Rs and Independents and that would be a big negative in a Presidential campaign.

I could see Romney, but Trump would fight hard against that. Possibly Haley. Don't see Mitch or Trump going for Kasich for VP.

Pence would give him everything he wants but without the stupidity and obvious corruption of Trump. If anything, he'd be more effective but with an even more business-friendly agenda.


If only Pence hadn't traveled to Poland to try to shakedown the Ukranian president.

He can't cut a deal with the NY AG.

But he can spend the rest of his life fighting in court.


I don’t think he has the money to fight state charges.


He'll use his campaign funds. He's already doing that.
