Imagine a person with great political authority who is known to have a grudge against you began an investigation looking for reasons to indict you. That person interviewed only people who were hostile to you. Imagine further that you were not allowed to see the evidence, to cross-examine witnesses, to bring your own evidence and witnesses involved in the matter, to have an impartial judge and jury, or to appeal the decision.
How would you feel? Would this seem fair?

Exactly. IRS does this to people. They considered you guilty until you prove your innocence.
The democrat party should be punished for their actions. We need to flip the house to republican.

#1 We also need to flip the House to Republicans who will not allow our Constitutional rights to continue to keep "slip, sliding away". People who love our country more than they love the perks of office. Also, people who know the history of our country and know how hard-won are the benefits we all enjoy.

If it was me, I would have been grabbing dims by the tie by now demanding that they straighten up. We must take care of business in November. Don't pull the lever next to anyone's name that has a "D" after it. Pay attention to your state and local races because the local dims and deep staters will continue infiltrating your local politics.

The Democrats keep saying that "Nobody is above the law." Yes, but nobody, not even the President, is below it either." He is entitled to the very same protections that any US citizen is guaranteed by our constitution. This kangaroo court that the Democrats have assembled violates multiple provisions of our constitution. The very fact they continue to try to proceed with such Soviet-like conditions should warn every citizen of their true intentions and ultimate goal. Namely, the subversion of our constitution and the imposition of a tyrannical government, which they are already doing in multiple blue states, such as California.

Democrats are the epitome of high school bullies. Democrats ARE what the preach vociferously against.

I am surprised, every day, that the dims' actions have not brought on an act of violence. The reason, I think, is that conservatives are, in fact, conservative. They do not resort to the kind of actions that the left routinely embraces. That is why we elected Trump. Like Lincoln in search of a general like Grant: he fights.

No man is above the law and no man is below it: nor do we ask any man's permission when we ask him to obey it.

We also need to flip the Senate to Republicans. The Senate Republicans are in on the resistance, just like Paul Ryan was. Ryan did nothing, allowing Trump's time to run off. Senate Republicans are doing the same thing, Trump's first term almost run out. Graham has done nothing in 3 years. Mark Warner is the minority, but runs the Senate Intelligence Committee, Burr doing what he is told by the Democrats. Schumer has McConnell in a headlock. McConnell thinks its the 1850's Senate, and he won't lift a finger to modernize the Senate to the 21st century. Rules of the Senate, McConnell chortles to every question, regardless of relevance. Cornyn hides behind McConnell, and stabs Trump in the back. Cruz doesn't really like Trump, thinks he should have been president, in spite of the personality and charm of a toad. Trump has a 95% approval rating among Republican voters. Our Republican legislators have an approval rating in the teens among Republican voters, and it is easy to discern why. The Republican legislators ignore their voters. Trump is the first Republican to ever do what he said, and listen to the voters that elected him, doing what is best for the country. The Republican legislators are largely controlled by lobbyists, and they really stink. That is what I really think this morning.

There's just NO WAY the lying democrats could ever get away with these ridiculous, sham ''hearings'' if we had an honest media. It would be impossible! But we don't, what we have is a cheer-leading squad of like-thinking professional liars that only care about advancing more government and socialism. It seems the crazier a Rat is, the more the media loves them.

How would you feel if you were treated like Trump? Scared.
All of the resources of the federal government are arrayed against him. Trump at least has the resources to fight back. WE DON'T.
Washington is showing itself to be full of liars, crooks, bullies, and tyrants. All we can do is vote them out and demand they clean up their act. It doesn't help much considering how many of them have made a career out of Washington. They steal and buy elections. Sooner or later they may just ignore election results entirely. They have no regard for the rule of law.
The Trump critics like to criticize his temperament. Considering what we see in Washington, what does that tell us about their temperament? I'll take Trump any day.

I would be as angry as I presently am. And as disappointed and discouraged that the “news media” and a majority of our “higher,” as well as” lower” education” indoctrination centers are as gullible, ignorant and foolish as they have exposed themselves and seem proud to be.

No man is above the law.
But some women are - Illary Clinton, Loretta Lynch, Lois Lerner, Lisa Page, Hanoi Jane, Nancy Pelosi........
And some men too - Bill Clinton, Adam Schiff, Ted Kennedy, John Kerry, Al Sharpton, Peter Strzok, James Clapper, Jim Comey......

"As a firm believer in the two-party system"
I also respect the role of the loyal opposition. There is too much temptation of single party power, no matter who the party is composed of.
Yet, it not necessary that the dems survive. They have corrupted themselves into uselessness and dangerous outcomes. We need a new party dedicated to responsible and honest government.

As I have commented before, if I had hot steaming piles of Schiff dumped on me every day for 3 years, I would probably do more than tweet my frustration.

President Trump has remarkable power, which is deep in his mental fiber. I would have told you ''Lying Sacks of Schiff'' to Get Off My Lawn. Who needs that kind of aggravation? The man is a miracle. I don't care if you believe me or not, but Donald John Trump was heaven sent to the United States to give us one last chance to quit killing babies and debasing humans.

This morning on Fox a congressman said Schiff’s is lying & when the transcript of witnesses is released it will be proven . Since he’s not under oath nothing can be done. This is crazy.

No human could endure what Trump has gone through. I love & admire him more than ever. I pray every day for him, his family & associates & I pray all the scum in DC will rise to the surface.

Theoretically, morally and ethically he is correct. However, technically with regard to legal protections in the Constitution, he is wrong. The Constitution only protects the right to face one's accuser in a criminal trial. Impeachment is a civil action. And the House of Representatives may conduct the procedure in any way they wish. It is not fair, ethical, moral, just nor decent. However, there are no protections afforded the accused in this kind of procedure in the way citizens are protected from criminal prosecution. This never was an issue before now because our representatives used to conduct themselves with decency and fairness when it came to such serious matters in the past. But nowadays, these people have no respect for the country, its institutions nor anything else of importance to the nation. Instead, they only want power and will do whatever it takes to get it, even if it destroys the country and hurts the citizens.

As long as people on the left as well as on the right keep buying lefty newspapers, watch lefty TV channels or listen to any lefty crapola the left will continue to insult the President which means you the voter who put him into office. I have no intention of being belittled by the Clinton cow or any of her cohorts. Press the button and don't watch, read or listen to her/their BS propaganda. I have no clue who the morons are who would watch let alone go on a show like the 'view'!!! Are they carting people in from mental homes for the occasion??? Tune out and turn on other right wing channels, they will get the drift.
