Does anybody here consider Liz Cheney or Mitch McConnell ‘extremist’?

No, but I don’t think they are “lishmah” either, no politician is.
If you want a reason, I’ll give you one. They think this is the best way forward and the best way to win elections

So in your book DJT is normal and Liz Cheney is extreme?

In the book of normal... when you ever get a chance.... and for the record Liz Cheney is not extreme, just a bozo...

Hasinah mikalkeles es hashurah... your hatred towards trump is forcing you to imply things from something completely baseless... these people have themselves in mind... that should’ve been obvious to anyone and especially someone with your intelligence...

Only 4% of American weddings are between Rs & D’s. There is definitely an objective lack of unity. Cutting off the extremes like Trump & Ilan Omar allows the middle 70% or 95% to be more unified.

out of the 10% or so who get married?

Happy the government spent its’ time and money how the majority of the country wants it too, and the ‘pointless’ trial changed the opinion of 27% of the country.

I don’t care if it’s לשמה or not. My question is if you agree impeachment is a reasonable position or you think Cheney, McConnell, and the other 20 ~Republicans are radical leftists?

What were the numbers before the trial?

I don't think there is any reasonable case for impeachment that does not also call for evicting Schumer from the Senate and impeaching Harris.

I don't think those Republicans are radical leftists, I think that they are radically anti-Trump.

Is being radically anti-Trump not a legitimate position? Was Liz Cheney always radically anti-Trump?

At least we can presumably agree the impeachment isn't a crazy Democrat agenda...

Well her farther is no fan of Trump so I would assume she never liked him either but if she wanted to win an election she has no other option.
You wont know if the impeachment isn't crazy because they just decided to impeach someone without any investigation!

Not when it drives you to apply inconsistent standards with regards to something as serious as impeachment.

She is a representative of the establishment Republicans (as evidenced by the fact that they put her in the third spot in the house in her second term) which is radically anti-Trump. I don't know what she personally said about Trump.

Trump was elected as a repudiation of the establishment Republicans. When those people vote to impeach him, it's not people on "his side" crossing over

Would you say Nikki Haley wasn't on DJT's side and then crossed over? (Not about impeachment specifically, but in considering DJT guilty for Jan 6 events)

Was probably posted already! But this is great to watch when biased media folks get forked!

'What happened in Capitol Hill on Jan 6 was absolutely horrific, but what happened in the impeachment process was not too far behind it'

I see lots of statements regarding the impeachment are mentioning the death of Officer Brian Sicknick. Has any evidence been made public that connects his death with the riot? As far as I know they haven't even released a cause of death yet.

Certainly more evidence than the evidence that Trump won by a landslide...

I thought I saw videos of a rioter literally killing him, but what difference does it make? The death is an illustration, the impeachment charges don't cite any violence.
