Its just politics bugger all to do with impeachment.

Well me and a few others on here reckon trump is doing a great job.

The front page of the NYT website — on day 1,000 of the Trump administration — reads like a parody prediction from 2016 of what Trump’s presidency would look like. pic.twitter.com/oT3VxVqDXp

Shame you missed the next part of the article out of your post.

"Therefore, Trump has taken a reasonable position that the House’s failure to vote and its unabashedly partisan drive to impeach render the purported impeachment inquiry illegitimate.

Yet, the Constitution’s commitment of impeachment solely to the House’s discretion is a two-edged sword: Yes, it means the House should act as an institution; but it also means no one — not the courts, and certainly not the president — may dictate to the House whether, when and how to conduct an impeachment inquiry.

There is nothing in the Constitution that says the House must vote, or that it cannot act through such standing committees as Intelligence, Foreign Affairs, Oversight and Judiciary. In fact, nothing in the Constitution directs the creation of committees; they exist because Congress, with nearly plenary power over the way it conducts business, created them."

Somehow, in a right-wing tabloid article, written by the author of a book called 'Ball of Collusion: The Plot to Rig an Election and Destroy a Presidency' where the tagline is "The real collusion in the 2016 election was not between the Trump campaign and the Kremlin. It was between the Clinton campaign and the Obama administration" - Andrew McCarthy still concedes that the House don't have to vote on impeachment proceedings and certainly do not have to bend to the will of the despot President in charge of the USA.

Hence the word "reasonable" being used by the author not "President Trump's position is justified/correct".

Considering the headline is 'Pelosi’s impeachment drive is all politics, no law' - those paragraphs contradict the f**k out of those sentiments, don't they?

Lets bin the fake news.

USA can't win criticised for occupying foreign lands and for leaving them , let Syria and Turkey sort it along with thier new Russian policeman, if only these countries could manage themselves and let different cultures live together in a free democratic way .

Why do you think it's fake news? Once it was confirmed that the infantile, threatening, 'bad bestie' letter from Trump was genuine, I am surprised if anyone is really surprised it was binned. As it was leaked to the world there is no value in it either for future blackmail of Trump or Trumpers - through extreme embarrassment at its contents.

And when you start 'USA can't win, criticised....' you do accept that it is Donald J Trump himself who is being criticised and some of the strongest criticism is coming from within the USA, and even from amongst the Republican Party loyalists who have been most supine and supportive of the cretin so far.

Yes I do accept Trump is being criticised over this withdrawal, ita still ironic , wasn't that a part part of his election deceleration to stop the USA involvement in foreign lands ? .

I'm sure the Republican and Democrat hawks are worried , perhaps he's aliging to a socialist viewpoint of non involvement in foreign lands, one you should support , nope can't win .

I note you avoid my point about these folk allowing cultures and people to live in a democratic way .

At least the alleged evil capitalist American world allows a form of mulit cultures , democracy and freedom of speach without being beheaded or imprisoned.

It's being reported that Pence and Erdogan reached the agreement (nothing to do with the Trumpmeister general himself) to call a ceasefire. The Kurds have agreed to the ceasefire too - incredible negotiation skills, indeed...

Buuuuut.... What will likely be overlooked on here (and in the Fox News article about it that I just read) is that the agreement between the US and Turkey has essentially given Turkey what they wanted in the first place, which was to get rid of the Kurds in the 'safe zone'. A spokesperson for them has said that they agree to the ceasefire but not to Turkey encroaching into Syrian land and will defend themselves if necessary.

I can't see this playing out any way other than further bloodshed, sadly.
