Funny argument for NOT IMPEACHING TRUMP.
The bad could become WORSE, hahaha.
“Be careful what you wish for, it might just come true.”
The wisdom of that old saying about the consequences of your wish coming true possibly being worse than you thought may never be more relevant than right now with the rising howls for the impeachment of Donald Trump.
That’s because, as bad as Trump is, the United States could actually be in worse shape in the future if Mike Pence, his seemingly benign vice president, replaces him in the Oval Office.
Indeed, Pence could well turn out to be a complete disaster as president for liberal-minded Americans. In sharp contrast to Trump, the former Indiana governor is a serious politician with extremist policy views that liberals seriously don’t like.
And that’s why liberal-minded Americans, and like-minded Canadians, should be hoping the U.S. Congress doesn’t impeach Trump — at least not just right away.
Calls for Trump’s impeachment have risen sharply in the past week following his sudden firing of FBI Director James Comey, the revelation that he shared sensitive intelligence with Russian officials and reports that he had allegedly asked Comey to drop the FBI investigation into former national security adviser Michael Flynn.
More than a dozen Democratic members of Congress have called for Trump’s impeachment. They argue Trump’s actions are an obstruction of justice and constitute grounds for impeachment.
A poll released earlier this week shows more Americans support impeaching Trump than oppose the idea. The survey, conducted May 12-14 by Public Policy Polling, found 48 per cent back such a move compared to 41 per cent who are against it. |
