"All of these issues are very important issues, but you can own healthcare," he told lawmakers. "Figure it out."

Please please please own my healthcare - I can't afford it!

... "I'll get impeached." ...

So, Pres Trump is admitting that he knows he might be committing impeachable actions?


Interesting, to say the least.

Orange Adolf needs to be impeached and removed from office.
Impeachment on its own is worthless.

It tells you that Turnip knows what he's been doing is not what the public has wanted, not what those that voted for him expected, and he's not been going for input from the Dem party. Instead he's treated them as an enemy and by choice has made it so. His singling out Dem cities for ICE treatment has gained him no favorability, not to mention closing down SNAP benefits during the shut in on purpose or how he's done the nation when it comes to trying to terminate federal dollars already agreed on for Dem cities. We've not even talked about health care nor the economy, which he really gets poor grades on.

All of those are of his own making.

Everyone in America should see that video. His hideous self-applied makeup, the frontal-temporal dementia lean, the self-pitying mental illness, all on full display. We are screwed if he lives out his term, because apparently the onlY thing that will get Republicans to impeach him is if an intern gives him a BJ in the White House.

#3 - yep, it does appear that he's aware of his illegality.

Maybe not be a criminal?

MAGA looked into the mirror when it went to the polls, and they elected their hero, the, to his core, fascist criminal Trump. Trump will never change, he is pure gangster, as Roy Cohn advised him to be, and along his way to power Trump has corrupted our American legal system, certainly the Supreme Court, and so if reason returns to Congress and the courts, of course he will be impeached, and then, no longer immune, he will be...okay, not tossed from office. That would take the Senate, and one doubts for that body to return to reason any time soon.

There will be a vote for impeachment, and GOPers will be among those voting to impeach this crime against humanity...

Good ol' Trump, always thinking of others first.

... Trump to House Republicans: 'I'll Get Impeached' ...

An apparent admission that he is aware of his [mis]behavior?

If we have "learned" anything it's that the SCOTUS corruption has maintained the elite control, and the Epstein delt with more than sexual child abuse.

The "legal system" has needed obvious reform which corporate legislators refuse to enact.

Rather, wealth extraction and consolidation has been maximized and criminality ignored.

I have zero confidence in any of this government to survive and thus, they will sacrifice the citizenry to maintain power.

He smirks like impeachment will make him more popular and has already implied his third inauguration will be inside of his safety ballroom.

Trump will make mid terms hell.
