    It’s a popular comment but I don’t understand why it’s upvoted. Why would Republicans oppose that war and what would be the justification for the impeachment?

      Just tell me you dont understand US politics and move on.

      Republicans would take any chance they had to remove a democrat from the office of president. Their justification would be one of hypocrisy, but lets be honest. If they didn’t have double standards, they wouldnt have standards at all.

        Clinton was impeached but not removed. I have a hard time to believe that they would remove her for a war they want. If they impeach her for starting an illegal war, don’t they also deny themselves from ever doing it?

            I wouldn’t mind to be wrong but nobody who is making your point has named the transgression that Republicans would use to impeach her, nor had there ever been somebody during the election campaign who had mentioned that the campaign was useless because Harris would be impeached anyway.

            Trump is worse, but Harris would fight the same wars because the president is a figurehead and politics is made by the lobbyists.

              Look man,

              I understand what youre getting at, but i dont have time to explain the difference between a clinton bj and a harris land invasion and the 30 years of political polarization that allows us to be here.

              So kindly fuck off and stop pretending like you know what youre talking about.

              Its also real cute you think you got me for some reason.

                That’s not the question. Why would the Republicans try an impeachment for an invasion if the Republicans obviously want that war. You also have to explain how they could get 67 votes for a successful impeachment.

                Who is the influencer that is spreading the idea? It’s surprising how many democrats believe it since cooperation from democrats is needed for it to succeed.
