Trump and Pompeo Criticize Democrats for Holding Impeachment Hearings During NATO

Both President Trump and Secretary of State Mike Pompeo have criticized House Democrats for holding impeachment proceedings during the NATO conference.

According to The Hill:

President Trump and his allies are blasting House Democrats for holding the first Judiciary Committee hearing on impeachment at the same time the president will be in London meeting with other NATO members.

Administration officials have accused Democrats of deliberately attempting to distract Trump from his work overseas by hosting a hearing on Wednesday with constitutional law experts on impeachable offenses.

“The do nothing Democrats decided when I’m going to NATO … that was the exact time — this is one of the most important journeys that we make as president,” Trump told reporters at the White House as he departed for London on Monday.

Secretary of State Mike Pompeo, meanwhile, told “Fox & Friends” that he felt the decision to hold a hearing while Trump is abroad went against precedent.

Other members of the Trump team have openly accused House Judiciary Chairman Jerry Nadler of purposely scheduling the hearings during this critical foreign policy time.

When are these worthless Congressmen going to get off their dead butts and go to work? They have done nothing exept screw with Trump for last 3 years. This not what we elect them for. We elect them for law makers. About time throw all of them out and start over!

With pelosi at the climate conference in Europe, do we have to let her back in? LoL. You are a President who moves to the needs of the people, like veterans move to the sound of trouble.

I and many others are sick & tired of the Democrats dirty tricks. They (the Dems) are NOT serving the people who elected them to Congress. Apparently they have lost their collective minds and don’t care about the people who elected them to do the work of serving the people, NOT to fight a sitting President. They are wasting the peoples’ money, and they just don’t care. —

Enough is enough! Time for the Democrats to do their job of working for the people that voted them in. Otherwise – they need to get voted OUT.

Take heart everyone. The time is fast approaching when the reports are released and many of these so-called government servants, will be tied to criminal enterprises, and given time, shall be indicted and then charged with crimes. Their desperation tears, will be our wine, and when they are removed from office WE THE PEOPLE will rejoice. Trust the plan. Trump and The Patriots will win for the people in this great nation.
WWG1WGA-WORLDWIDE!
AND BARRY; Trump WILL be listed as a GREAT PRESIDENT, and PATRIOT!
Sorry barry, but you didn’t make the grade…. 3 hots and a cot for barry….

Unfortunately the way that Congress is set up, you cannot vote them all out of office at the same time. The founding fathers set it up that way in order to keep the Congress running. However, you can vote the ones that do appear on the 2020 ballet out of office. You just have to wait another two years to get rid of the rest of them. For God’s sake get out and vote. We do have the voice to make our votes count. Only the President is elected by the Electoral College.

This is not what our forefathers had in mind when they created a 2 party system for balance. There is no balance in the Democratic Party anymore. It is all one sided and we the people must do something about that. Vote them out of office. The Democrats used to be fair and law abiding. Now they dismiss the law and do whatever they want to do. We have immigration laws and we used to in force it, but the now the Democrats totally ignore it, against the will of the people. They act like they are in charge and everybody should bow to their demands. They don’t have any respect for our duly elected President just because their nominee lost. They act like misbehaved children who don’t get what they want. Many of these “so called lawmakers” forget that they took an oath (when they took office) that they will uphold and serve the Constitution of this country, yet they are bound and determined to change those laws. They want to take away our rights to free speech, our rights to carry guns, our rights to unbiased news, they want to socialize our way of life and they want to take away our proud heritage as Christians and Patriots. Our children are not being taught (in our public) schools the history of this country, at least not the true history. We the people pay for these schools with our taxes, yet they decide what our children should learn and what they should not learn from our past. History is the past and can not be changed. This Country has always been the beacon in the world for those who want a chance to live better. We have done some regrettable things, but again that is the past and we’ve been trying to better. Right now we are in a very good place, thanks to the leadership of our President Trump and it would be nice if some of the Democrats would acknowledge that. I think that would shine a better light on them instead of the hate they preach.

Now why would it matter where Trump is when a hearing is held to let Constitutional scholars decide if the offences were impeachable, nothing to do with Trump being present. If he were in the same room it would not change anything at all.
