This morning, Rep. Eric Swalwell has called for the opening of Impeachment for President Donald Trump. This comes as a time where Swalwell is also running for the Democratic nomination.
Here is his press release:
LOS ANGELES, CA – Rep. Eric Swalwell (CA-15) called Thursday for the opening of an impeachment inquiry into President Donald J. Trump:
“President Trump’s admission yesterday that he would listen to and potentially take a foreign power’s offer of ‘dirt’ on a political opponent rather than report it to the FBI is a brazen disregard for our rule of law, a betrayal of our nation, and an invitation to our adversaries to attack us once again,” said Swalwell, a member of the House Judiciary Committee. “We must stop this lawless President from tearing down our democracy.”
“Impeachment is the most extraordinary remedy the Constitution affords Congress,” Swalwell continued. “As a former prosecutor, I do not take this lightly. But this President continues to put his own interests above America’s; he is lawless. His relentless attacks on our rule of law and numerous efforts to obstruct justice and Congress have reached such a point to require extraordinary action. It’s time for Congress to open an impeachment inquiry into President Donald Trump.”

Trump is basically Biff from Back to the Future. A big, dumb wannabe bully. He’s not strong or smart, just has a big mouth. All bark, no bite. There’s so many other Americans that could replace him that are the real deal. The last straw for me was his anti-science rhetoric. He really makes our country look foolish.
Well, considering that Trump is one of America’s richest men, he wasn’t THAT dumb . . as we can see. You’re just still upset because your idiot Hillary’s CRUSHING loss! Get over it!
I didn’t want Hilary to win either LOL. I’m not with that if false dichotomy of Dem vs Rep, that’s foolish. By your logic, Warren Buffett or Bill Gates is much much more fit for President.
We needed a BUSINESSMAN to run this country and we finally got one! Thanks to Trump, the economy is booming! That’s what we needed after Obummer tried to destroy it.
Inheriting money does not a genius make. Trump is a failure as a business man and he is a failure as POTUS.
You are also not smart for believing that any political leader is going to help you. All they want is power.
Sen. Eric Swalwell errors in using loosely the term “lawless President”. A “lawless President” would easily be found with evidence of a nature that clearly is prosecutable and a quick conviction. At most he should state is a President that should be considered for censure. His decorum or process of thought is not in line with Congress. A censure stating the President’s mistake is possible and probably necessary. Lawless he is not.
Swalwell is not a “senator” ………. He is a congressman, albeit a bad one!
Swalwell is a fucking idiot
Swalwell is grandstanding. The election is around the corner. People can vote out Trump soon enough. Swalwells action is a waste of taxpayer money, immoral, and plain selfish for his own benefit. Even Pelosi is smart enough to see the damage a premature impeachment move would make on America. Waste and more waste by these self serving political hacks. The election will determine Trump soon enough. Try concentrating on immigration reform, homeless, and infrastructure idiot.
Swalwell is a moron!
Swalwell is a total loser and he knows it. This latest announcement is just like a death knell. He’s finished before he’s even started.
It is amazing to see democrat presidential candidates being played. Lizzy Warren has already taken the bait. The fake Native-American is already condemning Trump for his comment.
The problem is that Trump said he would listen to the dirt, but Hillary Clinton and her campaign actually paid a foreign agent millions to collude with alleged Russian agents, and Liawatha apparently has not condemned what Clinton and her team did.
Trump set the perfect trap. It will be fun watching the dems try to reconcile their contempt for Trump regarding his willingness to hear dirt on his opponents while trying to defend what Clinton and her team did.
Still talking about Hilary dude? It’s 2019!!!
Doesn’t matter! Even though she lost, Hillary is still trying to get in the news for some reason. She (and Obama) should be lying low now that it’s been discovered and she and Obama tried to pull a coup d’etat on the Trump Administration.
As to Swalwell? He’s not going anywhere!
a coup d’etat on Trump? Seriously? Someone watches too much FOX “news”.
Christine,
You do not need to watch Fox News to see the childish corrupt far left stomping their feet in a tantrum because our president has made our country better in spite of all their nonsense roadblocks they put up. Instead of doing nothing for the people, the demos should at least have a platfo and positive plan for our future. Eliminating, gas, coal, cows, planes, and cheeseburgers is not even realistic let alone moronic.
The truth is out there and will be revealed about the coup de or what ever it’s called
Be patient and watch the real corruption unfold.
Oh, and Swalwell is all lip service for your vote if your dumb enough to fall for it.
Sanders or Biden are your only hope.
If Swallow can get Pelosi to call for Impeachment, I say, Go For It! This is a guarantee 2020 win for Trump. Can’t wait to see this fool embarrass himself on the debate stage.
