Scott Ruble writes the following, one line of which made me "LOL"

This week is the start of the Senate Impeachment hearings of Trump that are expected to go nowhere. Democrats, to their own undoing, have blundered this process every step of the way. Nancy Pelosi even said that the Ukraine transcript, that she had not even read, will be the basis for impeachment. Another one of Nancy's “We have to impeach the President" to read what is in the transcript” speeches. As such, even the majority of Never-Trumpers don't take this impeachment seriously and as anymore more than partisanship.

Think about it....if Nancy can get rid of Trump, only Pence stands in the way of her being President.

Below is a history of the Republican Presidents impeachment. The democrats have tried to impeach every President since Eisenhower, and they had a point with Nixon. Poor Gerald Ford was not respected enough to even be impeached, rather he had to settle for being shot at by Squeaky Fromme, one of the Manson girls.

Riding roughshod over logic and facts, along with a Republican senate, no one is expecting anything from this process. Traders are expecting a full acquittal until round 4 starts where Trump is impeached for returning a Blockbuster video in 1984 without having rewound it.

Remember:

No one even knows what Trump is being impeached for, so here are the two charges:

ONE - “Obstruction of Congress” is not an impeachable offense. If anything it is doing their job for them.

TWO - “Abuse of Power” is the second charge against Trump, and that too is NOT an impeachable offense.

Starting Wednesday, both sides will have 2 days each (total 24 hours) to make their opening arguments.
