This unfortunately is reality, not a TV show.
Your Trump 5th Avenue shooting spree what if is way too far out there to warrant serious consideration. No shots fired equals no impeachment proceedings. Nice Trumpenfuhrer coup double down though.

Speaking of reality: Law & Order "plots are often based on real cases that recently made headlines, although the motivation for the crime and the perpetrator may be different." https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Law_%26_Order

Dodges the point. It's really not central how 'out there' the example is or isn't, although the 5th Avenue thing is of course Trump's own hyperbole (one hopes it's hyperbole). The point was to invite serious consideration of the proposition that the Senate is now too corrupt or cowed* to convict Trump for any actual wrongdoing. Feel free to substitute a 'more reasonable' example of your choosing, but I ask you to address that issue.


*Or perchance blackmailed, according to speculation based on the known hacking of GOP emails reuters

That may be your point now, but it wasn't then. Seems to me you are trying to back away from your Trumpenfuhrer coup theory. Regarding congressional, as well as other U.S. Government, corruption check out Parliament of Whores.

I am backing away from nothing.

You are deliberately misunderstanding in order to criticize. Conversation with you remains what it always is, a fight, at your insistence.

Your deliberately misunderstanding claim is a red herring.

I think you are ready to do battle with any and all who don't share your politcal POV. If you can't stand the heat, stay out of the kitchen.

Basically, most of what I'm getting from you here is your opinion of my debate tactics (in the form of unsupported snarky observations.) You can throw all of such 'heat' you want, I am not blistered, just bored.
