Trump Says Market Would Crash If He Gets Impeached

[Aroura]

It is not an "interpretation" MORON.

On ignore as well. Do you guys really need to start every post with an insult? Seems if you had facts and logic on your side you wouldn't.

Pelosi and Warren aren't talking impeachment, so how serious could it be?

There are so many reasons they wouldn't talk impeachment yet.  They aren't the general public, they have to be more thoughtful and careful.

1. They don't have a majority.  They would need 17 Republicans to stand with them at this time.  That's just this side of impossible, so it would just look like talking with no real strength to back it up.  Why bring up something you cannot possibly do? They may be waiting to see if they get majority after the midterms, so they will be taken more seriously.

2. They may decide not to impeach Trump at any point for their own political reasons/goals.  I am not saying I support this, but it might be the case all the same.  Pence is demonstrably more stable and quite a bit smarter.  They may prefer a man they feel they can manipulate emotionally (Trump), and feel Pence is actually more dangerous in the long run.

In any case, the response of democrats is hardly reflective of the seriousness of what is facing Trump.  That's a terrible deflection that does not address the issues at all.

Trump is guilty by his own admission. I suspect he is guilty of much more.

The US doesn't have a president that's a criminal. They have a criminal who is president.

The world watches and doesn't know whether to laugh or cry.

Oh totally, the man is clearly guilty of multiple crimes (including defrauding students at his "university", for instance). I'm just saying there may be reasons that democrats aren't talking impeachment yet, and those reasons have nothing to do with Trumps criminal behavior. Trying to link the two is fallacious.

As i have said he acts like a person trying way too hard to seem not guilty or coming up with excuses of what would happen if he was guilty  .Then a person who is legitimately not guilty. To me that says it all .

Trump is a sociopath:

Disagree though.  Trump is a malignant narcissist (and is also high on the sociopath scale, as well).  Sociopath is not enough to describe him.

Is Trump mentally ill? Or is America? Psychiatrists weigh in.

In particular,

Now, some psychiatrists and other mental-health professionals are shedding long-held norms to argue that Trump’s condition presents risks to the nation and the world. “The Dangerous Case of Donald Trump” features more than two dozen essays breaking down the president’s perceived traits, which the contributors find consistent with symptoms of narcissistic personality disorder, sociopathy and other maladies.

Exactly, as I said, sociopathy is (alone) inadequate.  He is also a malignant narcissist, (or has NPD if you prefer).  Totally agree!!

The question then becomes, is an unstable narcissist more dangerous than Mike Pence? Personally I'm torn.  Yes, it would be nice to have a pres who isn't tweeting insults at world leaders at 3am.  But Pence will methodically destroy more social nets and true religious liberties in favor of a Christian state.  On the other other hand, Trump is already pretty much doing all the things the Dominionists want him to do, so I guess better a stable dominionist than an unstable puppet?  IDK!!

Pence is demonstrably more stable and quite a bit smarter. 

True that, but if you put a shit on a stick into the White House, it'd outstable and outsmart both Dumbfuck and Pennyless together.

Remember, Pence is the fellow who jumped ship to Dumbfuck's campaign after he realised that he fucked over Indiana so bad even the idiots living there were unlikely to re-elect him. He's no intellect, even to the level of, say, Peewee Hermann.

The only difference between Nixon and 45, is that Nixon admitted his crimes on tape. 45 thinks by doing this in public it is different. He's making a huge mistake underestimating the intel community he keeps attacking.

I don't think he is underestimating the intelligence community, I think he knows they are going to drop the hammer on him. First he tried to discredit the investigation so he could drum up support to fire Mueller and now the goal is to keep Republicans in office so he can try and avoid impeachment, he knows if he is impeached he will be indicted and he wants to stay in office long enough to pardon his son.
