Trump Demands Republicans Impeach Biden Or 'Fade Into Oblivion'

Donald Trump is not happy that he's facing a mountain of legal problems and President Biden isn't. But he's decided to ignore the fact that he's beyond corrupt and Biden isn't, and instead he got on Truth Social to demand that Republicans in the House get moving on impeaching Biden immediately. He also sent a threat along with his request, telling Republicans to get busy or "fade into oblivion." It isn't clear what that means, but it probably isn't good, as Farron Cousins explains.

Donald Trump is starting to get a little upset that he's got two impeachments under his belt. He now has four indictments against him, 91 felony charges. And that little rascal Biden in the White House, president Biden has, has nothing against him. No. No criminal charges. No, no impeachments. I mean, come on. Trump is telling us Republicans for the love of God do something. And on Sunday evening, Donald Trump let his anger boil over. And in a post on truth social, he warned Republicans that if they don't get off their butts and impeach Biden immediately, then they risk, as he put it fading into oblivion. Here is what Donald Trump posted on truth social Sunday evening. The Republicans in Congress though, well-meaning keep talking about an impeachment inquiry on crooked Joe Biden. Look, the guy got bribed. He paid people off and he wouldn't give $1 billion to Ukraine unless they got rid of the prosecutor. Biden is a stone cold crook. You don't need a long inquiry to prove it. It's already been proven. These low lifes impeached me twice. I won and indicted me four times for nothing, either the bum or fade into oblivion. They did it to us.

So Trump is sending obviously the strongest message ever to house Republicans that if you don't do this, bad things are gonna happen to you, you're going to fade into oblivion. Now, he's not explicitly saying, I'm gonna do bad things to you, but I think at this point it's kind of already assumed like Trump is going to go after you if you do not impeach Biden. And the reason he's even bringing up the whole inquiry thing is of course, because Kevin McCarthy has now warmed up to the idea that an inquiry is in fact going to be launched. And when Republicans call the house back into session, everybody gets back to work. McCarthy's made it clear that he is going to let the lunatic fringe of the party take control of things and launch their inquiry because as Kevin McCarthy says, like we need those bank records, even though they already have bank records from six different banks that don't prove anything that they thought they would.

So I don't know what more you need, but sure, go ahead. Not to mention the fact that, one, you're not even gonna get a conviction in the Senate. So this whole thing is stupid. Matt Gaetz has even admitted, we're not gonna get a conviction in the Senate. The only reason we're even doing it is to basically taint his image in the public. But more importantly, there's only a five vote differential between Republicans and Democrats in the House of Representatives. So if you get five Republicans that do not go along with a house impeachment, you won't even be able to impeach 'em in the house. And there's already plenty of Republicans, including a couple in the Freedom Caucus that are out there saying like, we don't need to do the impeachment thing. It's going to hurt us. Look back at 1998 in Bill Clinton, he got impeached, his approval rating went through the roof and we kind of got creamed in the next election.

So please don't do this, but I'm okay with it.like, I have no problem if you guys actually had evidence of any kind of criminal activity with Biden. Do you know what? Those of us on the left would do? Nothing. We wouldn't go out there and hold protests. We wouldn't go storm the capitol to protect our guy. We, we really would just talk about it. And we'd either try to refute your evidence if we thought it was weak, or we'd say, go ahead and impeach him. If he's corrupt, do it because we're not psychotic cult members like the Trump followers are. So if you've got evidence, go ahead and bring it forward and launch your inquiry. But if you don't have a rock solid case, you'd better be ready for history to repeat itself. 'cause it didn't work out super well for Republicans in the late nineties against Bill Clinton, and you're basically going down the same path right now. But now that Donald Trump is out there hounding you to do this, we know you're gonna do it. And we all know that it's not gonna end the way that Republicans think it will.
