https://news.yahoo.com/stop-steal-organizer-says-several-015900814.html

The Stop the Steal organizer claims to have had help from GOP congressmen Paul Gosar and Andy Biggs of Arizona, and congressman Mo Brooks of Alabama in planning of the Jan. 6 catastrophe.

Do you believe him?!

I believe he believes he did - yes

Mealy-mouthed non-answer.

Do you believe he had their help?

Or are you, with your dancy-pants answer, trying to suggest that you think he's wrong in his belief?

Thanks Barton. I’ve had a ongoing concern since the diebold days.

232-197, 10 R’s vote to impeach. Sit on it till the Senate shuffle is complete so both houses can approve a special prosecutor before the Senate hears the matter.

Kid is angling for Sidney Powell’s old job.

Insanely low number, but republicans are known more for their cowardice and pecuniary lust more than anything else.

Soft bigotry of low expectations again.

The smart money is running to the over on trump insurrection convictions as more tentacles of the plot are revealed. The line has jumped past five figures and climbing.

It is infinitely more than have crossed party lines to impeach a President from their party before. Seriously, infinitely. So, yeah, an insane number.

I think 5 Dems voted to impeach Bill Clinton.

But Trump can find solace that he finally beat a Clinton in the popular vote!

And his new world  record of 2 impeachments in only 1 term could stand for some years to come.

Congratulations to Donald J. Trump for being impeached as many times as the previous 44 Presidents combined!

And he did it all without ever winning an election. That’s what having the right connections gets you. It’s the height of republican politics made flesh (lots and lots of gross gross flesh).

All math aside,  I find it depressing that only ten,  from purplish districts,  would repudiate Trump.  The John Adams quote springs to mind. 

One useless man is a tragedy,  two are a law firm,  three or more are a government.

Sadly...

No evidence that the non-fictional character ever said it. Clearly, he should have!
