All this nonsense is the equivalent of calling for a goaltender interference challenge when the guy was clearly pushed into the goalie by his own dman. The outcome changes nothing, it's just a waste of time and resources. I just find it hilarious this is perceived by some kind of victory by the left. Meanwhile, there's obviously a load of corrupt crap being pushed through behind the curtain while everybody is celebrating an impeachment.

I get what you are saying, but there is a lot of nonsense that goes on in politics. When faced with the facts of what Trump had done, and will likely continue to do, sometimes you have to do the right thing even if the Senate have declared they made up their minds. It's on his record now, it's a statement for history, it means he can't be pardoned in the future apparently, and who knows what else will come of it the next few months.

If the goal is to expose the entire Republican party as bat shit crazy to the left....job well done. But all it's doing is energizing the radical right wing who love that he gets to do and say what he wants without ever having to answer to it. This is just energizing his voting base. And will hurt the other sides when within a few months there's just no penalty and no nothing that really comes out of it. What he's proven is that there needs to be a complete overhaul with how Americans give power beyond the legal system to their President and some other elected officials. Based on how well they've handled topics such as guns and health care...you're literally looking at hundreds of years before some of this stuff ever gets addressed. Too many are content to proceed with this all as white noise while others are proud. And there's no majority in the middle who can accomplish anything with what voting base is left in the end of it all. Ignoring science and reality is now a proud "election item" for leaders like Trump. They're winning with their voter base because of the things that are repulsive to so many others. But knowing most of the Republican party is an embarrassment to the human race is something most people who even somewhat follow American politics already knew. And people like Mitch McConnell being just absolute pieces of shit is something we shouldn't need to expose time after time as he keeps getting re-elected but here we are.

Quick Update: The Trump Crime Admin is crumbling now. Parnas just filled in all the blanks. This is worse than we thought. The entire Trump regime is worse than I thought - and most KNEW it would be a shit show.
We are living through history right now. Nixon trying to steal some documents seems so small in comparison to this.

Another 10% will know but support them anyways. Sad and pathetic.

The fact people actually buy into the stock market thing is the biggest joke of all this. Anyone can be given complete power and give tax breaks to their friends to benefit the stock market...its like the right wing forgets what makes the stock market churn the minute all the rich people get extra money...

Yeah I mean when the wealth gap continues to get bigger and bigger and many of the jobs that are being used for the unemployment statistics have incomes that are not possible to live on there is really nothing left to defend here. I haven't watched this Lev Parnas interview yet, only read snippets but the information is truly terrifying & indefensible. He is saying the only reason he is even talking is because he fears for his safety. American tax payers are funding a Mob Syndicate

The powerful people on the right...those that own the lobby and big TV networks that defend Trump, they LOVE it when the stock market does well because they have money. 90% of the viewers have zero direct interest in the stock market, but they are conned to think they are doing well or better than 3-4 years ago. Trump spent a year before the election saying how fake the job numbers and stock market were, now he trumpets them as his big achievement even though Obama was the guy in power that fixed the Bush mess of 2007-2008.

Well from my perspective, I have an RRSP like I hope many other Candians have, and Americans have similar retirement investment vehicles that I hope many of them are investing in. Over the last year my RRSP has made huge gains that I was not seeing for any of the period under Obama's reign. So as long as Trump keeps that going for me, I'm okay with it (not that I have any say in what Trump does). The stock market does actually matter to a lot of people ... not just the rich ... and it is performing very well right now. It should matter to you also if you want to retire outside of poverty.

Under Obama's reign the markets were doing just as good so any gains you're seeing isn't just because of the overall market it's what your money is tied up in or else you would have seen big gains under Obama as well.

In Canada, you're the middle class, it exists a lot less in the US. I saw a stat on TV were around 70% of Americans had no direct or indirect investment in stocks(that would include Mutual Funds).

You can say that but it didn't happen. I have not seen the growth I am seeing today under Obama nor under Bush. Sorry it doesn't fit your narrative. Trump haters won't accept anything he does as positive ... lol. I'm neither a Trump supporter nor a hater ... I'm a Canadian.

I simply quoted a fact. % wise the markets rebounded under Obama more then Trump has grown them since being in power. Being a Trump supporter or hater had nothing to do with my comment. Other then the fact that people seem to have this underlying notion that Obama only hurt the US economy when using the same measuring stick as Trump he grew it in a large way coming out of a recession.
