What's happened to, stop treating your opponents as enemies but as fellow Americans?

Biden's letting it rip now. :D
He will forget what he said tomorrow though.

Harris will be the next President after Biden. Before a 4 year term also.

Maybe 🤷‍♂️

Biden will see out the full term but he won't run for a second term. Hopefully, Kamala will be the first female president, the first black female president, and the first president to assume office at the age of 60 years, 3 months and a day. :D

as i far as i am aware trumpy as had his facebook account suspended, and his twitter account suspended, but still as access to Americas nuclear codes.

seems to me to be a bit lopsided.

he is not trusted with a twitter account etc, but trusted with nuclear codes to authorise the use of Americas nuclear arsenal, completely arse about face in my view.

JUST IN: House Speaker Nancy Pelosi also says the 25th Amendment should be invoked to remove President Trump from office — and if it isn't, "Congress may be prepared to move forward with impeachment.”

The procedure is, he tweets the nuclear codes and the military keep watching his Tweeter account for instructions, so we should be safe. :)

Getting mixed messages about this. One guy says it can be done in a few days, another says Trump has 3 days to object and methods to drag it out beyond the end of his term. Would be a good idea if they can do it.

There is another method of disposing of him that when triggered, would take less than a millisecond. :D

Don’t people think that forcing Trump out early will just through more fuel onto the fire for his core base to cause more trouble ? :roll:

One lunatic in the White House can cause more damage than the 10,000 lunatics following him. :)

She really doesn’t like him does she! Didn’t she start the first impeachment regarding Trump Ukraine and Biden??

I noticed no statement from Bill Clinton yet! 🤣🤣🤣

If Congress invoke the 25th amendment Trump gets 3 days to draft a written defence. Surely whatever he's got to say should seal his fate - especially if it's written by madman Rudy. :lol:

Kayleigh said the president condemns what's happened in the strongest possible terms, but she ran off the stage like a scolded cat when the questions came. :lol:

As Jake Tapper said, she lies the way most people breathe. :)

I’d like to think the ranks of never Trump are growing by the second. And I admit to brushing over all sorts of concerns about Trump along the way. Not because I like him as a person or that I liked what he stood for.

His performance from election night onwards has been disgraceful and he has offered a paucity of evidence to back up his claims. And to me, Rudy Guiliani, why on earth he ever went along with any of it is beyond my comprehension.

So those that warned that Trump was unfit for office all along were right and I was wrong.
