If your team has to CHEAT to win, if your BEST political strategy against impeachment is to, "change the rules," you've already LOST the fight.
If your team cheats and stll can't win you're probably a Democrat
We damn well better vote!
@@CH-kw8qw or a Republican, like we can see happening right infront our eyes.
It's about the same as having a match with a grandmaster chess player and declaring a tie by flipping the table.

He has an absolute right to leave the White House and go directly to jail.
Without passing Go or collecting $200.
Indeed he does lol
👍👍👍👍👍
I love how he always says he is told something by "someone very important" but never names the person!!! He has so many "fake" conversations that I think these people exist in his head only!!!
I’m studying the constitution in history right now, and my teacher always gives an example of something Trump has said and how he can tell than trump has not actually read the constitution.
“It was miraculous. It was almost no trick at all, he saw, to turn vice into virtue and slander into truth, impotence into abstinence, arrogance into humility, plunder into philanthropy, thievery into honor, blasphemy into wisdom, brutality into patriotism, and sadism into justice. Anybody could do it; it required no brains at all. It merely required no character.”
― Joseph Heller, Catch 22

"I was not lying. I said things that later on seemed to be untrue."

Trump is geeked on adderal, cocaine, and methamphetamines. We ain't seen nothing yet.....
Nixon wasn't drunk off his ass all the time. He drank, sure. But in compiling an honest list of alcoholic presidents, guys like Warren Harding and James Buchanan were way worse.
@@tomb613 : Don't forget baked because of the time he spends inside a tanning bed.
The words "Trump", "reading", and "The Constitution" do not go together in the same sentence.
Not even in the same dictionary
Just "Trump" and "reading" anything other than Mcdonalds menus and love letters from Vlad, really.
Maybe he would read it if it was made into a children's book! Or...maybe someone should give him a copy of, "The Constitution for Dummies".
He can't even read current english let alone 18th century english. Trump is an illiterate moron elected by other illiterate morons.
It's fittingly called an oxymoron
He will definitely go down as our dumbest President lmao
Well he keeps getting away with things so why wouldn't he think he "has the absolute right" to do whatever he wants

tag427 I love how you didn’t even say anything of importance then call me stupid like you know something because you watch a late night show 😂 I’m literally studying a degree of business and politics if that helps
I’m talking about right now, Trump is being impeached because he was uncovering corruption by his biggest political rival who literally took $1.5B from the Chinese government while he was Vice President of the USA, that is literally selling out America to a foreign power, that is facts, try and prove me wrong. Are you guys really that stupid that you get tricked by soundbites of trump with shitty jokes on late night shows 😂 maybe go read some facts about what’s actually going on rather then being told by these twats haha

Trump: declares himself above the constitution
Me: not even remotely shocked
I'd be more shocked if he willingly and knowingly cooperated. Him releasing his call transcript doesn't count because he legitimately believed it would absolve him.
Penny lmao right? I saw this title and I’m like “of course he did.”😂
*Knock knock* Penny, *Knock knock* Penny, *Knock knock* Penny
That's cause his behavior clearly portrayed that stance all along
Nothing he does shocks me anymore. It just pisses me off now.

Another veteran to throw you a "damn straight." Didn't vote for him, Obama, Bush, Clinton. Just know bullshit when I see it. This man is on another level. :( A disgrace to the world.
Um... who DID you vote for then?
No soldiers we know, the ex-army wounded on duty spouse and I, support Trump. None. So many reasons. His accepting of a purple heart from a "fan" was an abomination to those who earned one.

The thing is, this shouldn't even be debatable.
@Drake9Draconiangar The only failed investigation(s) were all the damn Benghazi witch hunts.
It's not. But McConnell has decided to hold America hostage, and ALL the mechanisms for enforcement have been co-opted by the Traitor-In-Chief. All that is left is assassination, but if you do that, be sure to take out Trump, Barr AND McConnell. or they just change the names and faces and continue on the path to fascism.
Drake9Draconiangar one thing's for sure, Drake. If you ever try to run for elected office, someone is going to drag this CZcams comment of yours up and your political career is over forever even before it began.
Someone needs to frame impeachment to Trump like it is a celebration of him.
Tell Trump he will be voted Impeachment King.
Bwahaha. Genius
Oh! Also, he could get the MOST POPULAR VOTES EVERRR. No president will EVER get as many votes to impeach him as trump! He winssss!!

No person with such power smart enough to realize the implications of such a position/statement, would actually say that. This guy is a dumbass.
No, no! Let him have it, "Absolutism" worked out so fine for France back then.... you even have the crippling debt, the ignorance of the high class citizen, a foreign wife, and the death sentence being unfairly distributed... all we need to find out is how to make goods expensive but seeing how Americans completly ignore Climate Change, I think that'll solve itself.
Orwell saw it all well....
Anytime Trump recounts a conversation and starts with them calling him “sir” you know he’s making it up.
NinjaBearFilms If you are on Twitter be sure to follow @ddale8. He follows this concept with epic coverage of Trump’s press conferences.
Anytime Trump talks he makes it up.
Because people who talk to him either lack any kind of respect towards him, or they are one of those groveling slimeballs who dare not speak ill of their beloved "Great Leader". The latter bunch probably debase themselves and call him "top president, the top of them all" or some such.
Haha you’re right, I never thought of that. His little stories of people talking to him are the best. Usually starts with “They told me...”
Everything what he sad sound like is a rumor from a "top" customer in a bar. Without clear names or locations, because know that could be easily debunkable by anybody.

How does one become president without knowing what the Constitution is?
Anybody can be the president now
appeal to voters who don't care about the constitution and religous nuts who think he is god
Well, to be honest, he is no president. A cult leader, a corrupted, insane, un- compassionate cult leader.
Technically the vote(whether popular OR electoral college) was never a true representation of American views, based on the level of Russian interference but I would assume it starts there. So technically each of those explanations, given in comments so far, are true in some way.
50% voters who don't care about the Constitution, 50% welcoming foreign interference in our elections.

"Trump declares himself above the Constitution" kinda implies he already deemed himself to be above the law....
Where does it declare in the constitution that one party can unilaterally investigate a standing President without giving him due process? I'll wait... it'll be nice to know where that is the next time Democrats win. You'll probably elect another rapist.
@@leganzar7831 Constitutional provisions
The House of Representatives ... shall have the sole Power of Impeachment.
- Article I, Section 2, Clause 5
The Senate shall have the sole Power to try all Impeachments. When sitting for that Purpose, they shall be on Oath or Affirmation. When the President of the United States is tried, the Chief Justice shall preside: And no Person shall be convicted without the Concurrence of two-thirds of the Members present.
Judgment in Cases of Impeachment shall not extend further than to removal from Office, and disqualification to hold and enjoy any Office of honor, Trust or Profit under the United States; but the Party convicted shall nevertheless be liable and subject to Indictment, Trial, Judgment and Punishment, according to Law.
-Article I, Section 3, Clauses 6 and 7
[The President] ... shall have power to grant reprieves and pardons for offenses against the United States, except in cases of impeachment.
-Article II, Section 2
The President, Vice President and all civil Officers of the United States, shall be removed from Office on Impeachment for, and Conviction of, Treason, Bribery, or other high Crimes and Misdemeanors.
Also Claims that Article 2 gives him the right to do whatever he wants which is completely false. The Presidents power is limited and subject to approval by Congress. Their are some limited executive powers the President has which can be overturned by congress thru legislation. He cannot declare a war, a national emergency etc without approval.
Perhaps you should read the Constitution and Bill of Rights. This president is the epitome of what the swamp is. He has violated every ethic and moral ground that was written into the Constitution and the Bill of Rights
@@Piper44LMF This doesn't prove your point it proves mine. The House has the power to Impeach. They have to vote with a 2/3 majority present. It doesn't say they have the power to unilaterally interview "witnesses" while shutting out other members of the house. Obama and Bush both declared multiple wars without Congress. Trump has done the opposite. Kindly remove your head from your butt.
@@leganzar7831 Man you really are stupid aren't you?!?!? the House has the power to impeach, the Senate is the jury and THEY NEED 2/3 majority vote to either remove from office or agree on the facts the House brought to impeach this asshole. Besides all this recent investigation among all the others, how do you support someone who is lead around by his tiny orange balls by Putin???!?!?!?! By the way you are right about Bush declaring war without Congress approval, and that was done by the SECOND DUMBEST PRESIDENT EVER.
That's a pretty good Trump impression, you made me laugh with that golf joke.

If anyone chooses to disregard the authority of Congress, they should go to jail for contempt.
I like the idea though it would set a dangerous precedent, still, desperate times require desperate measures.
@@ryanpiercy3390 Congress has the constitutional authority to arrest people and it has been done in the past. Not recently, but I think we're at that point.
@@Matt-fl8uy I wasn't aware of them using it before, if they have then it is no longer as much of a precedent, just something to use only when strictly necessary. That said, we are indeed at that point and i never questioned that they have the authority, just pointing out that politicians going after each other in such a way can at worst lead to abuses such as, if you vote against my bill you get jailed. scary thought right?
Ryan Piercy
It’s not a dangerous precedent. If you do not respect the authority of court, you are found in contempt of court and can be jailed. If you do not respect Congress, you should be put in jail.
America is becoming a rogue state. If people are not made to respect the law, America will descend into civil war.
@@jpd8739 if its been done before it basically doesn't mean much as a precedent, second the difference is that politics are inevitably involved when politicians are judge, jury, and defendant. If we do too much it will look like congress can jail whoever, whenever, for not following their orders. Sounds like another form of dictatorial tyranny to me. Like I said though, thats worst case scenario.
Seth's team is on another level.
"...Master Baker..." 😂
Trump to Whistleblowers: “HEY, you’re not doing it right - let me do it”

Vote red, vote blue... It's all the same
Republicans don't care however... they are beholden to their corporate and special interest donors (NRA, Big Oil, Big Pharma, Evangelicals/Israel)... if they ignore the agendas of these groups they will lose power and money...

This show is giving me faith back in the USA
Brilliant!!! Thank you so much Seth and your wonderful staff!
Can we just go back to the days where the biggest presidential scandal was wearing tan suits and putting fancy mustard on a burger....
Pretty sure Obama's biggest scandals were getting the US military involved all throughout the Middle East, bailing out the banks and expanding the surveillance state.

Chris H I think I can deal with that
And wearing a bike helmet? Lol
@@Ahoto_papa_bi What do you mean you can _deal with_ it? You mean you don't think those things are so bad?
Writers of series like the west wing or designated survivor would never have been able to write plot twist like this. No one would have thought this kind of mess could be plausible.

Madame Secretary, that show did a cool thing with the damage a president might do...
Actually, they wrote several plot points that fit this bill. Plus Martin Sheen kinda looks like Trump. Both played characters who came to power in a gridlocked Congress, winning the electoral college vote over the popular vote, and dealing with Russia’s interference in the Middle East poorly. The main difference is that Martin Sheens character was at least inclined towards hearing intelligent advice. Both in real life and in the West Wing, fake presidents talked about the conflicts with WH press corps, complaining about the non stop 24 hr cycle that reduces information and nuance in the name of content production. It was so eerie to see the plot points happen that it gave me an associative recall around this thing I’ve heard called predictive programming. Generate an idea, use it in a story, and see it happen in real life. New ideas can’t be recalled once they are out there, and some ideas are put out there for precisely that reason. To skip their way into public conversation and consciousness and distract from your own idea of what reality should be.
@@privatename2648 Madam Secretary is a left wing tool of the Democrats. It's a television program & nothing more.
Fun Fact: Lawrence O'Donnell (The Last Word, msnbc & former Congressional aide (?) was a consultant for West Wing. Man, I loved that series! I stalk it online, waiting for the DVD collection to maybe, one day, fall into my price range.
Trump's as literate on the US Constitution as he is the Bible. Isn't that nice…
Yup 2 Corinthians is a classic!😂😂😂😂😂
What does the bible say about gays and slavery?
@@diaperdude6163 not much one way or the other!
@@stephencapps5292 The little it does say. Tell me.
@@diaperdude6163 as far as slavery from what I could tell it was SUPPOSED to be more like indentured servitude as slaves were SUPPOSED to be released from servitude after 7 years. As for being gay not much except people of that time in the Middle East didn't think it was natural,and still don't as far as I can tell. That however seems to me to be more cultural than any thing else.
Oh I thought this was a new one, why does Seth seem to have so many reruns, I find him and Colbert both are off alot..and I need my dose of both every night. lol
Boy is he going to be surprised when someone tells him about checks and balances...
Checks and balances need enforcement to protect the democracy/republic. So far ... nothing. Not sure who is going to be surprised.
Maybe he thinks it says chicks and ballances.
There are no checks when the system is rigged to favor the few and no balance when those with controlling power are a pack of fawning sycophants.
The only check he knows about is the ones he had to write to Stormy Daniels and other Porn stars.
And balance is what he has to do when he is sitting his fat lazy ass in the golf cart so the cart does not flip over.
Boy, are you going to be surprised when he wins in a landslide in 2020.
He’s a malignant narcissist. He’s so toxic.
David Fariello - OMG, he is sooooooo vain!

You only have to deal with him until January 2025.

Changing rules is what led to the downfall of “Animal Farm”
Cleary too many people did not read George Orwell. A shame considering so much of it is coming to pass.
Wait, that was referring to literally all socialist and communist revolutions... By the way, need help, our president shut down Congress. It’s Peru. No, socialism doesn’t work, it killed thousands here.
But if no one does anything to stop him, then he's right. He can do whatever he wants, much to our dismay 😣😭😠
Moscow Mitch and a GOP control Senate is the reason why Trump can act crazy. That is why it is so important to vote in 2020.
