By that comparison sure, but Trump has done way worse in my opinion.

 

Technically we didn’t elect Trump to office by a margin of 3.5 million votes. 
 

Also, water both is and isn’t wet. Humans created the word wet to both describe when water has touched an object, and to describe the feeling of having water in contact with skin. However, “wet” is more a sensation felt by our nerves. Other animals could feel “wet” in different ways, or not feel “wet” at all; meaning that water is both wet and not wet.

 

And your response is the perfect example why the entire politics is a waste of time :lol: Some people are going to even argue the water isn't wet just to win a debate. This is so 21st century when "my way is the only way".

 

Got better things to do than arguing what the word "wet" means. Over and out :water:

Found this tweet highly enjoyable.

 

 

I'll put a few once Senate is done throwing this garbage in the dumpster where it belongs.   And I was so sure that he withheld aid that's why he was impeached.... however.... hmm.... there is no bribery count.... HOW ODD!   probably because THEY...... FOUND..... NOTHING....... 

 

But you and all the liberatds with tds can keep celebrating this IMPEACHMENT as some sort of fascist achievement.  Yet when it really count..... on the Senate vote.    And in November.  The true patriot americans will celebrate.   And that...   that you can bank on

The whole water/wet thing was a big debate in my generation in high school. My response was meant to be more of a light hearted jab. 
 

Also, to be fair. You always seem to forget you’re talking to someone who’s majoring in communications studies, with a potential minor in psychology, and with avid interests in human philosophy and nature, geography, and political theory.

Now had you actually taken the time to read the articles of impeachment, you’d know that bribery is the main charge under the article concerning abuse of power.

Oh no! A sick misspelled burn. Oh, whatever shall I do ?
 

Also, it takes Fascist supporter to know one. 
 

The United States government is set up on a bicameral system where no house is more important than the other. The Senate may carry more weight, but the founding fathers set up the House of Representatives to be the truest voice of the American people. Yes, the true patriots are celebrating tonight.

Well, as espected. Just like the Senate voting not to remove him from office will be expected :p

 

Biggest fool of the night: Scalisse. He called Gordon Sondland, and I quote, "the Democrats' star witness".

Never said Antifa were the true patriots, nor would I defend the majority of their actions. The same goes for the other groups you mentioned. 
 

You also clearly don’t know what a Democratic Socialist is (and neither does the majority of DSA, hence why I’m changing my affiliation in 2020). I believe in strengthening our democracy, and I believe in pursuing socialist policies. However, it is not my wish to have a dictator or one party in power. I not afraid to label my self a Democratic Socialist, I where it as a badge of honor to show people that I true care about everyone.

    • We never beat Canada in the WJC so yeah that would be a major upset... we were mega close in that goddamned quarterfinal when Bedard "Bellinghamed" us in the last overtime minute. I doubt we will be any closer of that in the next decade.   won in all its history only 3 matches in world juniors preliminary Round and never over a top tier nation so this win over Canada in CAN is certainly one of the biggest upsets of this sport comparable to - QF in Salt Lake or - Katowice madness or Squaw Valley MOI
    • But if we would have done it, no one would call it a surprise :(

    • The Italian team bought a wax- bus from Sweden before the season and acquired head of their serviceman, so maybe that's the reason? The investment hasn`t been successful so far, because there is still a void beyond Pellegrino and these young skiers aren`t mentally ready for a tough fight.   Once there was a skier from Poland - Justyna Kowalczyk, who fought with the whole coalition of Norwegians at that time: Bjoergen, Johaug etc. Thanks to her strong psyche she was able to win difficult finishes with Bjoergen. Diggins is doing the same now - she gives 120%. This is the only way you can win with Norwegians. Apart from Pellegrino I don't see anyone in our team who has the ambition and the will to fight.
    • Diggins and Pellegrino have never had great physical conditions but their mental have always been on point. The entire American team is brave and ambitious. On the other hand the Italian team is physically weak and has no ambition. There is no visible will to fight and progress is born in the head- that`s says once Filippo Ganna.
