Kevin McCarthy's three-ring disgrace rumbles on into the night, and now the clowns want to rewrite American history again. Trump impeached twice? Never happened and you can't prove anything.
House Speaker Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.) said Thursday that he’s willing to take a look at expunging an impeachment of former president Donald Trump by the Democratic-led House.
Trump — now a 2024 candidate — was impeached twice during his four-year presidency: in 2019, for withholding military aid from Ukraine in exchange for political favors, and in 2021, for inciting the Jan. 6 Capitol riot.
In the previous Congress, groups of Republicans floated resolutions to expunge both impeachments. Supporters of the latter included Rep. Elise Stefanik (N.Y.), the Republican conference chairwoman.
Asked at a news conference about the prospect of an expungement now that Republicans control the House, McCarthy said, “I would understand why members would want to bring that forward.”
McCarthy then ticked off other priorities for House Republicans, including the economy and immigration.
“But I understand why individuals want to do it, and we’d look at it,” McCarthy said of expunging impeachments.
He wasn’t explicit about whether the House might consider expunging one or both impeachments but expressed sympathy for Trump regarding allegations of colluding with Russians in his 2016 campaign and other things Trump “went through.”
Trump was acquitted in Senate trials following both impeachments, but the impeachments by the House remain part of the historical record and an indictment of the former president.
By the time this is all over, the Biden administration will be the most impeached in history, and Trump? Well, he'll be off the hook. The threat is implied: drop all the cases against Trump and let us clear his name, or and we'll make sure that the news is filled with impeachments of Biden and his cabinet for two years while the economy crashes into a depression.
I hope people are enjoying things right now, because we'll be looking back at January 2023 as "the good ol' days" pretty soon.
Thanks GOP!
