Sen. Lisa Murkowski Calls on Trump To Resign: ‘I Want Him Out’
Sen. Lisa Murkowski (R-Alaska) is not holding back when it comes to what she thinks should happen with President Donald Trump, amid high tension in Washington, D.C., this week.
Speaking with the Anchorage Daily News on Friday, Murkowski became the first Republican senator to call for Trump to resign.
“I want him to resign. I want him out. He has caused enough damage,” she said, adding, “I think he should leave.”
The senator continued to take a swing at Trump, “He said he’s not going to show up. He’s not going to appear at the inauguration. He hasn’t been focused on what is going on with COVID. He’s either been golfing or he’s been inside the Oval Office fuming and throwing every single person who has been loyal and faithful to him under the bus, starting with the vice president.”
She added:
“He doesn’t want to stay there. He only wants to stay there for the title. He only wants to stay there for his ego. He needs to get out. He needs to do the good thing, but I don’t think he’s capable of doing a good thing.”
Murkowski’s remarks come amid calls from several Democrats for the 25th Amendment to be invoked or else Congress may pursue articles of impeachment.
Sen. Ben Sasse (R-Neb.) said during a “CBS This Morning” interview on Friday that he would “definitely consider whatever articles” the House “might move, because as I’ve told you I believe the president has disregarded his oath of office.”
Additionally, Rep. Adam Kinzinger (R-Ill.) became the first Republican lawmaker to call for the 25th Amendment to be invoked.
The president shared on Friday that he will not be attending President-elect Joe Biden’s inauguration on Jan. 20. He did vow this week that there will be an “orderly transition” of power.
In response to Trump saying he will not attend his inauguration, Biden told reporters in Delaware on Friday, “It’s a good thing, him not showing up.”
“He has exceeded even my worst notions about him. He has been an embarrassment to the country, embarrassed us around the world. Not worthy, not worthy to hold that office,” Biden also said.
Yes, he has damaged the rancid Establishment!
Some wise words of hope from Conan The Healer.

Merkowshi, is a joke, a poor excuse of a representative of any type, be it a senator or anything to represent the great state of Alaska. She has always bucked President Trump, SHE IS A RINO THROUGH AND THROUGH!! I just pray that Trump has something up his sleeve yet 🙏🏻🙏🏻
“She has always bucked President Trump” Jack
That is patently not true, Jack.
Lisa Murkowski’s actual Trump score is 73.8% IN FAVOR of his royal nonsense, while her anticipated vote in favor is 75.6%. She votes as she was EXPECTED to vote. At what point did she cross over your RINO line, Jack? 80%? 91.7%? 99.9%?
To put this in perspective, Joe Manchin, in 2018, had a conservative ideological ratio of .71 (out of 1.00). This number varies year by year based on actual bill votes, but it is illustrative of the problem.
Who has more of an ideological issue, Jack? Someone who votes FOR Dear Leader over 7 out of 10 times, or someone who votes for bills from his OPPOSING party 7 out of 10 times? Pick one.
“I just pray that Trump has something up his sleeve yet 🙏🏻🙏🏻” Jack
I hate to have to inform you of the current situation and bring you back to reality, Jack, but Dear Leader is never, ever going to get elected to any office ever again. It won’t happen. He is done. It is over. For your own sanity and safety, you must realize that.
She is a RINO and always has been besides the only reason she got anywhere was here last name. Is Alaska joining Hawaii?
This RINO needs needs to be yanked by her governor and replaced with a genuine Republican!
What Unreal Lee is talking about is either 1) expelling or 2) recalling a politician.
The United States Constitution does not provide for nor authorize the recall of United States officers such as Senators, Representatives, or the President or Vice President, and thus no Member of Congress has ever been recalled in the history of the United States.
Expulsion has to be conducted through a two-thirds majority vote by the body in which the relevant member is a member (either the Senate or the House). A federal politician can NOT be removed by a STATE governor.
“US genuine AMERICANS fool” Unreal Lee
Now, a GENUINE American would KNOW that, fool!
Only a fool would not recognize that now that the Democrats have ‘climbed to the top’…there is only one way to go…!
History has said the same thing about the Romans and the Incas. They were at the top of THEIR game once, too. Where are they now?
The American Fascists have lost the House, then the White House and, now, the Senate. Right, Winslow?
You had better put some salve on your wounds before they become infected. Honey is good for that.
This will give Trump a chance to clean house of all the Rinos before the next election.
To what end, Randall? Firstly, he can only eject a Cabinet member. He can’t unelect anyone. You know that, right? The “cabinet” is filled with unvetted, unconfirmed members anyway, so, by definition, they were temporary all of this time.
BEFORE the next election? WTF are you talking about? Dear Leader will never be able to get elected as much as a street sweeper ever again, buddy, let alone president. And if he gets impeached now, THAT is a done deal. It’s really over then.
Also: define RINO. You seem to have a different opinion of what a RINO is than I do.
RINO: Republican in name only You have problems understanding that?
Actually, a number of us do because YOU seem to have a hard time explaining what a RINO IS. We can’t read your minds, so we require some form of communication from you, to explain this. Smoke signals just won’t work here. Is that such a hard concept to understand, Bernadette?
You see, below, I actually supplied you with actual numbers to help me define for you who you THINK you call a RINO when I replied to “Bob”, for one. That is me leading someone like you to actually form some sort of coherent reply, to help us understand you.
To me, a RINO would mean that the politician has crossed some sort of a line. In name only implies that the politician calls him or herself one thing while s/he VOTES for an opposing party ideal, against his or her own party’s ideals. That way there would be a defined RECORD of that person’s votes to PROVE your opinion. That would free you up from being able to just throw around a politically charged and emotional word as if you actually knew what the hell you were talking about, but, in fact, you didn’t or couldn’t.
So, again, I ask: define RINO and define for us how YOU make your decision to call someone a RINO. Please do that in a way that makes some sense out of a very confusing situation. Thank you.
Are you a professionally paid troll or just an amateur one?
Neither.
RINO to these trump cultists means any Republican politician that doesn’t lock step with trump 100% of the time. In other words, they have no mind of their own.
For us to properly understand them, we need them to define their own terms, otherwise they can throw terms around that they don’t actually comprehend fully. We can help them, but we need a starting point first. 😉
And WE WANT the IDIOT CHILD, USELESS TOOL,, Sen. Murkowski OUT!
Who is “we” and why do you want her “out”, Don?
US genuine AMERICANS fool!
BWAHAHAHAHAHA!
ONLY “US genuine AMERICANS” registered to vote IN Alaska get a say in retaining Sen. Murkowski? YOU have a say in the Senate race in the state in which YOU are registered to vote—and only that state. If all “US genuine Americans” had a say in U.S. Senate elections, the U.S. Senate would NOT have a 50-50 split.
“Us genuine American fools.”
Fixed it.
i agree totally with general confusion, what is the matter with you idiot trumpsters what part of YOU LOST, do none of you understand! you go general confusion you are doing the correct thing, speaking out against this maniacal , racist , pig of a president, get out now trump!
We understand, COMPLETELY! TRUMP LOST DUE TO OVERWHELMING, WIDESPREAD DEMOCRAT CORRUPT, VOTE FRAUD! That’s the only way Democrats win – by CHEATING!
You have no understanding of what just happened, Don. How is it possible that you could come to that conclusion? It makes no sense, based on ANY real information.
trump is a clear and present danger to the united states of america , he should resign or the 25th amendment should be invoked, jeez pence tell the piece of shit you will pardon him, anything but GET HIM OUT OF THE WHITEHOUSE!
You’ll find out who the real threat is when Biden takes office. He is perceived to be so weak by our enemies he will ignite a war that he won’t respond. In fact, he has already been helping our enemies ever since he Vice President to Obama. Instead uniting this country he will so much division in this country he and you communist will be responsible for the destruction of the greatest country that was created in history.
Randall: communism is NOT a problem in this country. Are you kidding me? How can you be alive today and think something like that? This is 2021, not 1961. In what way has Joke Biden EVER shown any kind of keft leaning? When? I would really like to know, because he has said that he has no interest in even progressive policies. You are crazy.
If you want to find division, you don’t have to look any further than the racist and fascistic Dear Leader you adore so much. He has literally encouraged the discard of legitimate election. How much more destruction do you need? Wow!
Well then fool call it socialism instead! We are a representative REPUBLIC with a Constitution and Bill of INALIENABLE RIGHTS. How can you pretend to be ignorant of the danger of the crime that socialism is? Oh and biden has collaborated and curried the favor of his favorites the Chinese government. The new communist threat.
“How can you pretend to be ignorant of the danger of the crime that socialism is?” Unreal Lee
I am not the one pretending, here. You have no understanding of what a politico-socio-economic system is. You are afraid of stuff that you don’t understand. Socialism and communism are just scary words to you that you were taught to fear when you were a child.
There is no way that the great American experiment is going to turn into a communist state, ESPECIALLY under Joke Biden. You are nuts if you actually believe that that boogeyman is hiding under your bed.
Even more, for you to define socialism, first you would have to crack open a book, but, unfortunately for you, that would require actually knowing how to read or, worse yet, actually learning something new.
What YOU call socialism is actually the normal functioning of a normal, civilized, modern government that does its normal job of protecting and supporting its people. But YOU don’t want that, Unreal Lee. Do you? All YOU want to do is make damned sure that other countrymen below you suffer and you make them suffer by throwing around a big scary word that you don’t understand.
You make me sick to know that you were actually born here in the same country as I was.
Re communism – “call it socialism instead” Unreal Lee
See what we are up against, Unreal Lee? THIS shows that you have NO IDEA what either communism or socialism is. Honestly, you don’t. This is why you, all on your own, EARNED your realistic nickname, because you are just unreal.
Randall…are you going on the record that you are involved, or at the least supporting a coup against democracy on the 17th?? Do you have the balls to put your money where your mouth is???
Has anyone asked.
Where is nasty pelosis laptop?
Wasnt it stolen a few days ago?
And why only hers?
Whats on it?
Trump has two weeks left and they want to impeach him why?
Pelosi’s laptop, used for presentations, STOLEN BY THE DOMESTIC TERRORISTS was recovered. As far as it being “why only hers?” It was not “only hers.” Rep. Clyburn’s iPad was stolen as well as Sen. Merkely’s laptop.
What’s on Pelosi’s laptop—presentations. No classified info.
If you are asking WHY they want to impeach him, you either did not listen to the “Save America Rally” speech and view the carnage it incited, —or you are too far gone to help.
funny when everything was running well despite the hatred and destruction created by the left you sat on you fast ass now you picking wrong side it will come to bight you
pierre: there were 147 American Fascist Congress members who voted against accepting the valid election results. Talk about picking “the wrong side”!
What do YOU suggest that we do with them all, pierre? Re-elect them? For unforgivably refusing to accept the results? Why? Why should we consider even letting them in the building? That would be self-defeating, don’t you think.
IF any one is not deserving to be in the fed govt., it is this Cumborat lover MURKOWSKI OF ALASKA! She has been the BIGGREST NO PERSON in Congress for the REPUBLICAN PARTY! ” UGLY IN LOOKS AND SPEACH!”
“You are a RINO and have never backed our President.” Bob
Lisa Murkowski’s actual Trump score is 73.8% IN FAVOR of his royal nonsense, while her anticipated vote in favor is 75.6%. She votes as she was EXPECTED to vote. At what point did she cross over your RINO line, Bob? 80%? 91.7%? 99.9%?
I apologize for confusingly replying under the wrong comment, Richard.
Senator, President Trump did not encourage people to break in to the Capital. He also was not part of the stealing of an election from the American people. He also was not one of the ANTIFA members that were part of the invasion of our Capital building. You are a RINO and have never backed our President. Maybe we should spend more time examining which Senators are members of the disgusting swamp that have been afraid that Trump would discover their swamp games!
“You are a RINO and have never backed our President.” Bob

Bob thinks antics stormed the Capitol building. That’s all you need to know.
Antics=antifa
Yes, Michael, I understand that, but the problem is that some IJR members have a difficult time putting their own thoughts down in writing. It’s a skill that they need to practice more often, obviously.
Worry about yourself and Alaska, that is all, Merk!
The feeling is mutual Murkowski. You are worthless. Hopefully the good people of Alaska will send you packing
What EXACTLY did Our President say that INTENDED to start a riot. Muckowski is worried about what is on the laptops that were taken from Congress offices.
youtu.be/jVF45Sxs8vw
“We are going to walk down, and I will be there with you, to the Capitol…” Dear Leader
No, he wasn’t. He lied to you, AGAIN! He wasn’t walking shoulder to shoulder with them. He applied stochastic terrorism to the wannabe terrorists before your eyes. You just saw it. He suggested where they should go and left what to do when they got there up to them, by implication (that’s how stochastic terrorism works), and then he hightailed it the other way. Coward.
Notice that he did NOT in ANY way, suggest to be peaceful and NOT commit any violence or damage. Any well managed protest cautions participants to avoid conflicts, unless conflicts are intended to happen. 😉
“Today we will lay out some of the evidence… to “stop the steal”…” Dear Leader
Wednesday was not the day to do that. He failed in SIXTY court cases to do that. This was not how he was supposed to present evidence of voter fraud. It was OVER.
Murkowski, Sasse, Kinzinger and all the rest of them are pieces of Shit and don’t belong serving the people…
There are 147 American Fascists who just voted to NOT approve a legitimate election. What do YOU suggest that we do with THEM, Mark? Reconfirm them and just let them continue opposing this democracy? That seems self-defeating, no?
Would you reconfirm them if they were communists, Mark? Is there any difference here? They may as well be compared this way, since that is how you people like to think, right?
In the face of the worst breach of security by rioting right wing fanatics against the Capitol of the United of America!!!…the other right wing fanatics on IJR can’t accept the truth…OMG
Yes, Erik. This is the division that this country will have to navigate for years to come. Conservatives and even more extreme right-wingers have made this country what it is today, after decades of crafting and honing it into this mess.
The chickens have come home to roost.
Sit down and shut up Murcowski!
It was Antifa! Not Trump supporters! Americans could care less what anyone says negative about President Trump. He’s the best President since Roosevelt. Be careful. You’ll get voted out.
“It was Antifa! Not Trump supporters!” Ron
BWAHAHAHAHAHA! Are you blind, Ron? You need to rethink things before you post comments.
If you’re saying that it wasn’t Antifa and BLM then you are the blind one… Just another one of the Sheeple on the left!!!
That isn’t how the world works, Mark. You are being manipulated and, because you are not in the slightest a curious person, you have no interest in the truth or facts.
Set yourself free from your controllers because they are getting you in trouble.
Ron, just like you know diaperdon really won the election, you know it was antifa. Do you get your news from anywhere besides limbaugh? As unbelievable as it is…little prick Tucker Carlson knows it was diaperdon supporters. QAnon & Proud Boys (the guys sworn to not masturbate)
You’re pathetic in your gullibly. Lol
I hope the good people of Alaska recall or vote your sad behind out. You r a fence sitter and are an annoying person on top of it. You need to pack you bags now. The new Republican party does not want your sad sack self
.
Murkowski: I’ll bet a dollar to a donut that these few violent protesters who forced their way into the Capitol Building were Antifa’s or BLM’s disguised as Trumpsters. This was NOT the M.O. of #MAGA supporters but was clearly the M.O. that Antifa and BLM have been using for the past 8 or 9 months. They were experts at causing CHAOS, the way they climbed, the way they pushed, the way they wore the MAGA hats and other Trump gear, and the way they mishandled the American Flags. There was a guy standing at the V.P.’s post with an arm raised in what looked like a “Black Power Salute.” There were some people with outrageous headgear on. Now, I take issue with the charge that these were Trump supporters–they were IMPOSTERS!!! If they were TRUMPSTERS, then I’m about to be the first KING of AMERICA. Besides, the LEFT promised to cause CHAOS at this event to bring bad press to the event to make it look it was from Trump Supporters. It’s the George Soros and Bill Gates types we should be going after for financing these thugs. Notice, the challenges were STOPPED in progress by this event and may never be allowed to resume. The majority of the STOP THE STEAL/RALLY FOR AMERICA was very peaceful, unlike the DemoCommie supported CHAOS over the past 8 or 9 months. MY opinion and I’m sure of it. Aren’t you?
You would lose that bet, JAG. Just saying.
You obviously are very confused and should step away from whoever is putting such stupid ideas in your head.
They have already arrested ANTIFA and BLM protestors. That’s not to say there weren’t a group of others…this Qanon group and others, but it WAS clear the rioters were not your MAGA supporters. Don’t listen to General Confusion, he’s a pain in the arse from way back.
They arrested John Sullivan, who CLAIMS he was there to document the carnage. Was he there “disguised as Trumpsters”.
Wow Jean. You’ve bought into yet another big lie! I suggest you tear yourself away from the crazies and have a mind of your own
I guess the tRumpster named Adam Johnson, who stole the lecture and was wearing a Trump hat was actually Antifa?? Lolol
Or the idiot dressed like a Viking, Jacob Anthony Chansley aka Jake Angeli from Arizona? Chansley stated he came as a part of a group effort, with the other ‘patriots’ from Arizona at the request of the President that all ‘patriots’ come to DC in January 6, 2021. Are you suggesting one of you trumpturds are lying?? Lolol
Murkowski, RESIGN‼️‼️‼️ We want you out. You are a total disgrace to humanity, to Alaska, and to the Constitutional Republic of the United States of America.
Interesting to go back and look at pictures of Murkowski. She starts out with a sweet innocent face and gradually takes on a shifty-eyed, mean and unpleasant look. She is up in two years. Time to primary her. Alaska deserves better.
You bring up an interesting point, Glen.
How on Earth is any American Fascist candidate ever going to get elected now, if their opponent brings up their complicity in this sedition? If I was their opponent, I would never stop repeating what they attempted to do, until they were so embarrassed that they quit running.
Can you believe the INSANITY that the Demo-COMMIES and RINOs are showing when President Trump only has 11-days left in office? Are these TRAITORS actually trying to start a CIVIL WAR? They have scheduled Monday to start impeachment proceedings. Some are even calling for his removal in the last week and a half under the 25th Amendment? LOOK: President Trump, being a non-professional politician, is guilty of ONLY one thing—PUTTING TRUST IN UNPROVEN FRIENDS. In retrospect, I think he should’ve appointed RUDY GUILIANI as AG and from the very get-go, and I’ll bet things might’ve been very different. Also, better vetting in his appointments and a litmus test for SCOTUS appointees. I did hear him say that he was very disappointed in his three SCOTUS appointees, and I agree. NO LOYALTY to the Constitution or the man who appointed them. Pelosi, Schumer, and other Trump enemies: This is NOT meant as a threat, but as a WARNING: You are unleashing a genie in “We The People,” that CAN’T be put back in the bottle. Do I expect you to listen to me? NO, because you’re so filled with HATRED and the SPIRIT of SATAN. America, like the Roman Empire, is done and we’re at the beginning of THE END DAYS. Now, get ready for the identity of the AntiChrist to be revealed.
“Are these TRAITORS actually trying to start a CIVIL WAR?” JAG
The actual traitors are the 147 American Fascist Congress members who voted AGAINST accepting the election results. They, along with Dear Leader and other sychophants around him, are the ones fomenting the talk of civil war coming from those who are primed to try to start one, by using stochastic terrorism. Did you watch Dear Leader do that to Cult-45 on Wednesday? It was pretty amazing to watch.
The likelihood of these incompetent people starting one is next to zero, BTW. Our economy is designed in such a way to keep everyone fighting against the interests of those below them. You are all just comfortable enough with your station in life that the chances of ANY of you rising up against our corrupt government and, thereby, losing EVERYTHING that you have, including your life, I would put at less than half of one percent. A few idiotic terrorists MIGHT try, but it will go nowhere – by design.
What WILL put angry people on the streets will be if Joke Biden reneges on his promise of handing out $2,000 survival checks. THEN you will see trouble!
How dare people use the democratic process, as Congressmen and women to allow discussion…the only facist here are the Democrats the attempted for 4 years to unseat a duly elected President. You are such a moron you drink the Pelosi punch…the old bag, needs to be thrown in jail. Probably she’s your kind of woman…old and slimy.
There is little democracy involved with a violent, armed, attempted overthrow of a duly elected government, Betsy. You, of all people here, should KNOW that.
You also pay no attention to people. I do NOT approve of the Democratic Party and their elitist leaders, INCLUDING the Speaker of the House or the now Senate Leader. Get THAT through your thick skull. They are corrupt and feckless. They have no interest AT ALL in helping anyone beyond their big donors, unless they are forced to help us. How many times do I have to repeat this until you FINALLY understand it? How many times, Betsy? Tell me, please, so that I know when this pain will go away.
1. WHAT is your understanding of the oath taken by federal employees? Here it is: “I do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same; that I take this obligation freely, without any mental reservation or purpose of evasion; and that I will well and faithfully discharge the duties of the office on which I am about to enter: So help me God.”
SO WHERE is the oath of loyalty to the individual that appointed the federal employee? It does not exist even if the individual making the appointment is an unprofessional politician.
2. WHERE in the Constitution does it indicate that Congress can overturn election results certified by the STATE if they do not like how the winner as selected by the state’s voters?
3. The domestic terror attack on the Capitol occurred 14 days prior to Trump leaving office. WHAT is the guarantee that Trump will not create more carnage in his remaining 11 days?
4. Rudy wanted to be Secretary of State, not AG. When not considered for that office, he told the media he did not wish to be in the Cabinet. The entire country benefitted from that decision being the absolute mess he created in Ukraine acting as a shadow Sec of State.
5. Those arrested in Wednesday’s insurgency are RESPONSIBLE for their own actions. Further illegal actions will also be the RESONSIBILITY OF THE ILLEGAL ACTORS– Sorry, but if you make the decision to take on the government of the United States, YOU are responsible for your actions, not the 81 million voters that disagree with you.
Well Jag…as far as you saying “we” are concerned, thankfully you’re in the minority. The rest of us believe in the meaning of the Constitution and unlike you, we don’t wave our fake patriotic flag, all the while, supporting a fascist tyrant who is doing everything in his power as president to destroy democracy.
There were terrorists in the Capitol Building who had handcuff zip-ties looking for hostages….sure…but they took the time to pose for photos. They were so dangerious….that the Capital police let them in the door with a invitation.
The only dangerous ones were the inept Capital police that shot a unarmed and non violent protester.
The idiots at CNN..DC police made far more arrests at the height of Black Lives Matter protests than during the Capitol clash
have them show us the looted stores and building buildings. they must be comprised of the biggest morons on the planet if they think that will fly.
BLM claims they were treated differently and the idiot Biden is puking out the same bs. This clearly shows their biaed and catering and acceptance of the destruction of property in June.
Let the idiots in govt. total up the damage of the two.
Property can be replaced, Robert. Rebuilding our democracy is going to be a lot tougher and take much longer. Your deflection and projection won’t help to resolve this any quicker.
Sorry but she deserved what she got. And as far as nonviolent, tell that to the family of the policeman who got his head bashed in. Or the poor policeman crushed, with blood coming out of his mouth!! That’s on VIDEO trumpturd. You’re awfully righteous behind a keyboard loser…
and most of the country wants you out
so maybe best to shut up
No, tom. She was elected to help guide this country and its people, hopefully with a sense of compassion and a sense of what is right and a realistic sense of what we need.
I would not normally agree with her at the best of times, but here she is 100% right.
Lisa is nothing but a RINO who should be kicked out of the Republican party along with Susan Collins. Come on Alaska, you can do so much better.
“Lisa is nothing but a RINO” Thomas
You confused me, Thomas, so please answer this question:
What does it take for you to draw your imaginary line at labeling someone as a “RINO”?
Lisa Murkowski’s actual Trump score is 73.8% IN FAVOR of his royal nonsense, while the anticipated vote in favor is 75.6%. She votes as she is EXPECTED to vote. At what point did she cross over your line? 80%? 91.7%? 99.9%?
You do realize what absolute power brings us, right? Tyranny. A political leader with unlimited power is dangerous. How do I know this? Because people just like YOU keep on telling me so about Democrats, but when it comes to Dear Leader, well… THAT’S O.K. then. Right, Thomas?
If I got anything wrong here, please unconfuse me.
I am with the General. WHAT is the criteria for RINO? Will the criteria change AFTER January 20th?
So, I presume that Melania Antoinette is getting her bags packed. Not that there is more than probably a few suitcases to fill. Maybe she can help convince her husband start, now.
“I want him to resign. I want him out. He has caused enough damage. I think he should leave.” Lisa Murkowski
”throwing every single person who has been loyal and faithful to him under the bus, starting with the vice president.” Lisa Murkowski
STARTING with the Veep? No, Lisa Murkowski is confused. Useless Pence is only one of the most recent to be bused.
”He needs to do the good thing, but I don’t think he’s capable of doing a good thing.” Lisa Murkowski
We know, Lisa. We know, and, more importantly, we know the reason WHY he won’t likely do the right thing, but if enough people varound him can get to talk to him, even if it is through media, it might work. It’s worth a try.
There is a name for doing the same thing over and over again and expecting a different result. If he resigns, I do not anticipate it to be before Jan 19th when he heads to Mar a Lago. That is still time for Pence to pardon him.
I appreciate Sen. Murkowski’s comments NOW. But if you recall one year ago when her vote was needed to have John Bolton testify at the impeachment trial, Murkowski was a “no” vote. It was only Romney and Collins that voted with the D’s on new evidence. Then she claimed there was not enough evidence to convict. I don’t want more evidence then claiming “not enough evidence” is not an indication of logical thought process. At least she did not go with Collins and Alexander on the convoluted reasoning that Trump had “learned a lesson.”
The American Fascist Party is now in disarray. 147 of them voted to NOT accept the election results. NONE of them should be seated in the next Congress. NONE of them.
The Party and voting base are divided and will soon have no “leader”. There were terrorists in the Capitol Building who had handcuff zip-ties looking for hostages. Some were looking for Useless Pence, to hang him from a tree or on a gallows that had a noose waiting. Jim Clyburn was found hiding by people who KNEW where to find him.
There MUST be consequences paid for all of this. The American people need a way of dealing with this, too. Differences must be reconciled, but I don’t see that happening while so much free Kool-Aid is available. The media and pundits must clean up their act, too.
BTW, what happened on Wednesday was a clear demonstration of white privilege. If any other group had attempted to storm the Capitol Building, such as blacks or other people of color, or Muslims, the outcome would have been much different. That was obvious during the summer when 5 times as many security forces were positioned against peaceful marchers in the same location. Just imagine their response if the marchers had made a similar attack.
Things have come to a head. There will be consequences as a result of what happened this past week. It is not over, but we have a lot more to learn about ourselves. Let’s hope that we learn the right things and learn them well. America is different now. WE are different now.
You r a blowhard. Talking about hanging people? Racism too? Geez can you pontificate anymore than you do. You are boring and long winded. You think by blabbering on you say anything important. You don’t. You are one tired old windbag. Your name, General Confusion, not clever just ordinary like you.
Yes, the domestic terrorists were ready and eager to hang people, to kill certain politicians. I saw Confederate and other flags and logos that only represent dangerous people or ideas. If YOU choose it dismiss these things, then YOU are part of the problem.
You can complain all that you like about tl:dr, but until YOU counter what I post, you are useless to this country.
I totally understand your feeling of insecurity Betsy Boop since the General uses words and concepts way above your Neanderthal intelligence. I suggest you go back to school and better yourself. Oh, and get a better hairdresser. Yours must be blind. 😉
“Geez can you pontificate anymore (sic) than you do.” Betsy
Sure. Since you asked, let me show you.
“That is still time for Pence to pardon him.” Phyllis
How likely do you think pardoning His Majesty will be after what happened this week? Useless Pence was his loyal, royal lapdog right up to the time he got thrown under the royal bus (as far as I can tell). At best, I would make a 50-50 bet on that.
Pence wants to run in 2024 AND he wants the support of Trump’s deplorables. —-WHY else would he break every Commandment, except adultery, while serving as VP? WHY else would Pence be opposed to the 25 Amendment after Trump almost got him killed? I would expect better than 50-50 odds on a pardon.
O.K., Phyllis. You’re on! 😀
Sure you r much more deplorable. You and General Confusion, match made in the sewer known as the democratic party. What do they say? People find their own level.
As you have found yours, Betsy.
You complain, but you never say anything.
Betsy, I am happy to be on a level with General Confusion, Delbert, and Jayjay. None of us voted for Trump. We recognized early on that he is unfit for the office. That alone makes us wiser and more patriotic than many IJR posters.
