No. The answer to the questionshould Republicans impeach Biden, absolutely not.
There is now articles of impeachment beingwritten up by Corey Mills, Congressman from
Florida, now is getting a lotof backing in the House. Tom Cotton,
very influential Senator Republican from Arkansas,has now thrown his full support behind
(00:24):
it. He says he can bringa band of Senate Republicans with him as
well. And they're now planning atleast a push or attempt to impeach Joe
Biden. Why they are now usingthe Ukraine Trump precedent If you remember in
twenty nineteen, in the first Democratimpeachment of Trump, Pelosi and the Dams
(00:48):
impeached Donald Trump over a perfect phonecall, and the argument was that he
had temporarily delayed congressionally authorized Millet HarryAid to Ukraine for political reasons, i
e. To investigate corruption in Ukraineand Biden's involvement in all of that massive
(01:10):
corruption which he was and his sondirectly complicit in. So what is Biden
doing now the exact same thing.He is now deliberately withholding offensive weapons that
have been authorized passed by Congress aspart of their fifteen billion dollar aid package
(01:30):
to Israel. He's now gonna withholdand not send the aid, whether it's
munitions, bombs, artillery shells.He now says, if they decide to
launch an all out attack on Rafa, which is the final last Hamas stronghold,
then Israel will not get a singlebullet, a single artillery shell,
(01:56):
or a single bomb. And whyis he doing this Domestic political reasons.
He doesn't want to alienate any furtherthe radical progressive left, those pro Palestinian
protesters who were once his voters,who are now rampaging on college campuses.
And he's frightened about the impact onMichigan and Minnesota, especially with the Muslim
(02:21):
Arab American vote. So, inother words, Joe Biden is now deliberately
withholding congressionally authorized military aid that bylaw must be delivered. It is not
his prerogative anymore. It is Congress'sprerogative. Only they have the authority,
and he is doing it for nakedpolitical reasons and purposes. If this was
(02:46):
impeachable for Trump, it should beone thousand percent impeachable for Joe Biden.
The logic is impeccable, but shouldthey do it. The answer to me
is clearly no, for two reasons. Number one, it's the Republicans.
They're never united. They'll never getthe votes, so it's gonna fizzle.
(03:09):
They will not be able to impeachBiden. And if by some miracle they
do, I'm telling you they won't. But if by some miracle they do,
they're not gonna have the votes inthe Senate. But even more importantly,
it will turn Biden into a martyr. It will drive these pro Palestinian
militants and protesters back into Biden's foldbecause he will be seen as fighting the
(03:35):
evil Republicans who now are going afterhim because he's too pro Palestinian. It
is bad politics. It is somethingthat the Republicans are incapable of doing.
They can't impeach. They don't havethe guts, they don't have the courage,
they don't have the unity, theydon't have the determination. In other
(03:55):
words, they're not like Democrats.Democrats impeach at the drop of a dime.
Democrats never break ranks. They playsmash mouth football. As Nude Gingrich
famously said, the Republicans play badminton. Don't impeach, you're just gonna embarrass
(04:17):
yourself, and you're gonna galvanize andenergize the left going into an all important
election. Joe Biden politically is deadmeat. Leave him alone. The voters
will do the ultimate impeachment come November. Biden is toast put a fork in them.
