It was ‘host’ Chris Hayes, who, by the way, is neither a particularly bright individual nor is he someone who is by any means considered as being a bona fide ‘journalist,’ who began the bizarre little exchange with the esteemed Mr. Green by saying, “You just mentioned political expediency and insincerity — those are two charges that have been leveled against Democrats during this entire affair, particularly since September when the formal impeachment inquiry started, and you play a starring role in those charges.”
Hayes then went on to say, “I mean, the argument goes like this of House Republicans and Trump and his allies: basically the Democrats wanted to impeach Donald Trump from day one, they cast about looking for a set of facts that they could plausibly use to do it, and all of it was pretextual and reverse-engineered to get to this point, and Exhibit One: Congressman Al Green, who [has] been calling for the man’s impeachment for two years now,” Hayes said. “What’s your response to that charge?”
Green responded by saying, “Well, the genesis of impeachment, to be very candid with you, was when the president was running for office.” And added, “With those things in mind and with the president’s behavior before us, firing Mr. Comey who was investigating the intrusion of Russia into his campaign, our election, that was something that was not to be tolerated. And the president has continued to try to thwart the efforts of Congress to investigate with Mr. Mueller. The president, by and through his White House counsel, tried to get this done again to deal with Mr. Mueller to extricate him, to remove him from the process.”
Green went on to say, “More specifically, I said that the president would claim that he was exonerated if there were impeachable actions that he performed and we did not move to perform our duty to impeach him.” And he said, “He has distorted the truth. He has twisted it and tried to crush it to earth.” Green has already suggested that he has no interest in trying to work with the administration to achieve anything for the American people because he is already thinking about impeaching President Trump again in the future if the president wins re-election. It was as recently as last month that Green told C-SPAN, “A president can be impeached more than once.”
Green continued, “So, we can do this, we can move forward with what we have on the table currently, we can take this before the Senate and we can still investigate other issues and when the president has committed additional offenses, and my suspicion is that he will, we can take those before the Senate.” He said, “There is no limit on the number of times the Senate can vote to convict or not a president, no limit to the number of times the House can vote to impeach or not a president. So, my belief is that the speaker will probably say we’re going to move forward with what we have now, but we’re not going to end investigations and that there may be possible opportunities to do other things at a later time.”
I guess I’m guilty of giving far too much credit to those who continue to vote for Democrats when it comes to assuming they’re more intelligent than they really are. After all, we all know what happens when you assume. You see, I keep hoping, whenever I see someone like Green denying wrongdoing by admitting to something even more extreme, that this will be the behavior that causes Democrat voters to pause. But it never happens, maybe this time. But it’s not likely. The vast majority of those on the left who vote for these charlatans are far beyond possessing any sort of logic and no amount of ‘facts’ is likely to alter their perception of the truth.
These days most of those on the left seem quite satisfied to get their information from what are some very questionable sources made up of various forms of propaganda, comedy skits, third rate academics, manipulated studies and statistics, activist teachers and professors or headlines generated by those on in ‘fake news’ who today seem not the least bit hesitant when it comes to looking us dead in the eye and lying. It's an echo chamber and they have developed a hatred for the Trump supporter and religious right archetypes so much that they are not open to discussion of any kind and would prefer anecdotal evidence that supports their many prejudices.
And don’t you have to wonder how much longer Blacks will keep falling for these pathetic race-hustlers like Green? He’s really no different than Sharpton; he has no real concern for struggling Black families, if he did he would be supporting this President and not screeching about the need to impeach him. After all, our current president has done far more for blacks than our previous president ever did. They continually hide behind scurrilous charges of racism rather than improve anything that might actually translate into allowing President Trump some level of credit for doing something good. Politicians like Green are only in it for themselves .
The saddest part of this continuing charade is that the Democrats seem to care very little, if at all, about what they're opening up with this “we can impeach anytime we want” mantra of theirs. When they couldn't get the 60 votes needed in the Senate to confirm Barry’s judges, they instituted the ‘nuclear option’ to allow it with only 51 votes and were then shocked when Republicans used it for President Trump's nominees. They cheered and defended Barry when bypassed Congress and were up in arms over President Trump doing it. Now they're establishing the precedent for impeaching a president for no other reason than they don't like him and don’t see that a Republican House could now do the exact same thing to a Democrat president.
And frankly I continue to be amazed at how it is that we now have so many in Congress who come across as being rather ignorant, uneducated and even borderline psychotic. And what’s truly frightening is the fact that these are the people who are in charge of making decisions and drafting policies that will come to affect every American as well as the future of our country. But are they really an accurate reflection of those whom they are elected to represent, if so then that’s even scarier. It seems that intelligence and honesty are no longer requirements for elected office which comes with huge salaries and great pensions. And they continue to elected and then re-elected.
At the end of the day I do think that most rational Americans are able to see Green for exactly what he is, a racist nut case. According to boobs like Green slavery was something that was somehow the fault of President Trump's fault as was the sinking of the Titanic and the Challenger explosion. Green is one of the more radical member of the Democrat Party and one who desires more than anything to tear down the Republic. His warped vision is to essentially remove all ‘white’ people from power, confiscate their property and then proceed to redistribute it to those who, in his view, are the perceived victims of he, and those like him, refers to as white supremacy.
