New Rep. Rashida Tlaib (D-MI) started her term with a bang as she cursed out President Donald Trump in a speech to supporters. From Fox News:
Speaking to a crowd of supporters Thursday night, the Michigan Democrat and one of the first Muslim women elected to Congress said of Trump: “People love you and you win. And when your son looks at you and says, ‘Momma, look you won. Bullies don’t win.’ And I said, ‘Baby, they don’t, because we’re gonna go in there and we’re gonna impeach the mother***er.’”
She also penned an op-ed in the Detroit Free Press to impeach Trump:
“President Donald Trump is a direct and serious threat to our country. On an almost daily basis, he attacks our Constitution, our democracy, the rule of law and the people who are in this country,” Tlaib wrote. “Each passing day brings more pain for the people most directly hurt by this president, and these are days we simply cannot get back. The time for impeachment proceedings is now.”
I swear if I took a shot every single time someone went into hyperbole overdrive I’d be in the hospital with alcohol poisoning.
It is hard to impeach a president and you cannot do it simply because of hurt feelings:
To remove a sitting president, the constitution requires conviction of “treason, bribery, or other high crimes and misdemeanors.” The impeachment process would further require the consent of both the House and two-thirds of the Senate, which is still a Republican majority.
Not to mention the fact that Tlaib had anti-Semitic racist Linda Sarsour with her at her swearing-in. You know, the woman who loves Louis Farrakhan and terrorist Rasmea Odeh.
Someone also changed a map that hangs in Tlaib’s office. No wonder she is friendly with Sarsour!
