Former campaign adviser claims that attempts to impeach Donald Trump will result in a civil war.

Courtesy of The Hill:

President Trump's former campaign adviser Roger Stone told TMZ that any politician who votes to impeach Trump “would be endangering their own life.” 

“Try to impeach him. Just try it,” Stone said. “You will have a spasm of violence, an insurrection in this country like you have never seen before. Both sides are heavily armed, my friend.” 

Stone said members of Congress who are advocating for Trump’s impeachment need to “get over it.”

“The people who are calling for impeachment are the people who didn’t vote for him,” Stone said. “They lose. Their candidate had every advantage.” 

“Sorry, we whipped their ass,” he continued. “It’s over. You lost.”

Man I REALLY don't like this guy.

And yes he is clearly unhinged.

However having said that I am not completely sure is wrong about the response to an attempt to impeach Trump.

His followers are batshit crazy, and all it would really take to incite them to violence is one tweet from Trump.

Of course Stone is wrong to assume that this would be some battle between the armed Left and the armed Right on the streets of America. Instead these angry Trump supporters would be almost immediately wiped out by the US Military resulting in a one sided conflict that could see multiple Right Wing casualties.

Hey, I think I just came up with a silver lining here.

      When does the capitalization of a word in reference to nonsense make nonsense not nonsense.

      7:21, if 5:19 has the same problem on his computer as I do when typing certain things then he is trying to EMPHASIZE a word as is usually done with italics. So he is using the only method of adding emphasis available. That's a silly thing to say on your part.

      And, are you implying that what was stated by 4:43 is NOT true? if so, please produce "alternate facts" to back up your intent. The media may not be doing it DELIBERATELY, but it is doing it nonetheless. Which, by the way, can be done by merely printing what Humpty Trumpty says! Or even just printing the news he doesn't like.

      This president has the greatest mental dichotomy in our history. He is NUTS and can't see that HE is the root cause of the current civil unrest. Of course, the repubes in general can't see it, so....

    The hounds are closing in. DJT will resign in order not to go to prison. Mueller's like a dog with a very meaty, juicy bone. He's not giving it up. And idiots like Roger will have to shut up and go away and hope like hell they have no financial ties to DJT.

    I'm just glad that DJT seems to have chosen a qualified FEMA director since it looks like Harvey is about to chow down on Texas and Louisiana.

      GP, I am hoping for 2 things: he is OUT of the White House and then, once gone, his crimes are considered bad enough he is then tried in Civil Court for the criminal acts he participated in.

      Personally I don't believe he will get away simply by resigning. The crimes still happened.

  7. At this point, the only supporters Trump has left are the batshit crazies. And I do include the Talibangelicals in that.

    This guy is the poster putz.

    No, there will not be civil war if Trump is impeached. Because if he is, it will be because of an overwhelming preponderance of that even the Republicans can't ignore. They have the majority in both houses and it will be the Republicans that will impeach Trump. Without them the Democrats can't do anything. So it will be the REPUBLICANS THAT WILL IMPEACH TRUMP. And if they do, if Paul Ryan and Bitch McConnell move to impeach Trump and urge their colleagues to support impeachment, there will be no civil war. Trump will lose even more support and only the truly deranged will dig in their heels.

    They'll look to Pence. And if Pence wants to behave presidential and truly do something to heal the damage Trump has done, he'll support the Republicans and make it clear that the evidence is true and honest and that Trump must be remove from office for .

    But I don't think it is going to come to that. I think Mueller will gather a shitload of rock solid evidence and right before he is set to act, Trump will cut a deal and resign in return for no prison time. Pence will pardon the piece of crap. He'll get to keep his healthcare, his Secret Service, all his SWAG and will sponge off his name and his "title" for the rest of his miserable life.

    May it be a short one.

      mlaiuppa, I disagree with the basic assumption you are making. You forget that the supporters of Humpty Trumpty are just as batshit crazy as HE is and it wont matter to them that it will be the repubes who impeach him.

      They won't CARE who does it! They want HIM. I feel they are stupid enough to actually think he would make a good KING.

      As for the rest of it, like Pence pardoning him? Yeah. I agree completely.

    6. Those batshit crazy supporters are a big minority. Trump will lose the non-whackos who follow the party no matter what. And if the party splits with Trump, they will go with the party. Trump will lose at least half of whoever is left now.

      Pence is a Republican and the Republicans will still be in power. So yeah, the non-whackos that are still supporting Drumpf will be won over.

      There won't be enough to have a "civil war". That is not to say a few or the real extreme nutjobs won't take their penis extenders out and try to "take their country back" and make it "great again". But law enforcement will be able to contain them easily.

      I loathe Pence but there is one thing at which he excels in comparison to Drumpf. He's SANE. I would rather he have the nuclear codes than Dullard Judas Drumpf.

    Alaska’s permafrost, shown here in 2010, is no longer permanent. It is starting to thaw.

    By 2050, much of this frozen ground, a storehouse of ancient carbon, could be gone.

    This is what may be lost.

    ...In Alaska, nowhere is permafrost more vulnerable than here, 350 miles south of the Arctic Circle, in a vast, largely treeless landscape formed from sediment brought down by two of the state’s biggest rivers, the Yukon and the Kuskokwim. Temperatures three feet down into the frozen ground are less than half a degree below freezing. This area could lose much of its permafrost by midcentury.

    That, said Max Holmes, senior scientist and deputy director of the research center, “has all kinds of consequences both locally for this region, for the animals and the people who live here, as well as globally.”

    “It’s sobering to think of this magnificent landscape and how fundamentally it can change over a relatively short time period,” he added.

    ...Even in colder northern Alaska, where permafrost in some parts of the North Slope extends more than 2,100 feet below the surface, scientists are seeing stark changes. Vladimir E. Ramonovsky, a permafrost researcher at the University of Alaska, Fairbanks, said that temperatures at a depth of 65 feet have risen by 3 degrees Celsius (about 5.5 degrees Fahrenheit) over decades.

    Near-surface changes have been even greater. At one northern site, he said, permafrost temperatures at shallow depths have climbed from minus 8 degrees Celsius to minus 3.

    “Minus 3 is not that far from zero,” Dr. Romanovsky said. If emissions and warming continue at the same rate, he said, near-surface temperatures will rise above freezing around the middle of the century.

  21. San Francisco knows how to handle Hate rallies.

    http://www.huffingtonpost.com/entry/dogs-poop-freedom-rally-san-francisco_us_599f8cc6e4b0821444c25074?ncid=inblnkushpmg00000009

    "While he was walking his dogs, a 45-year-old artist had an inspired idea about how to counter-protest a scheduled “Freedom Rally” organized by a right-wing group that calls itself Patriot Prayer. Tuffy Tuffington has enlisted the help of his two Patterdale terriers and a lot of other good dogs in San Francisco to lay a field of poop on the site where Patriot Prayer has obtained a permit to gather Saturday, according to The Guardian.

    “I just had this image of alt-right people stomping around in the poop,” Tuffington told The Guardian. “It seemed like a little bit of civil disobedience where we didn’t have to engage with them face to face.”

    Tuffington created a Facebook event to invite dog owners to join him in his efforts, and people were more than happy to sign up. The plan is to bring out the pups ahead of time and plant some poop bombs across the rally site, Crissy Field in The Presidio."

    "Some pointed out that leaving dog poop is against park rules and can result in fines. But the counter-protesters plan to clean up their crap after the event. "

    Personally, I think they should start collecting it now in their own yards, then bring bags and scatter it around.

    Roger Stone blocked me on Twitter because he can dish it out, but he cannot take it.

    The man is a coward with his tough talk of an insurrection should Trump be impeached. Little man Roger will be hiding in the corner.

    My maiden name is Chase; we have been here since 1638. We fought in all the wars and fought for the Union during the Civil War. Here in New England, the phone book (if you can find one) is full of the names of the descendants whose names were on the Muster Rolls of all our wars.

    I laugh at Roger's tough talk as that of a bully. And bullies are always cowards when push come to shove. Look at the crying Nazi who is now cowering in a Virginia jail.

    But the day of Trump's impeachment is coming. It is not a matter of if, but when. And if these idiots want to start something, let them try. No one here is shaking in their boots.

  26. On the one hand these lunatics are literally armed and dangerous.

    On the other hand, we have seen repeatedly since the teabaggers first started making noise that making noise seems to be all that they have the courage or energy to do.

    So many of their millions-strong rallies pittered out to a couple dozen people in lawn chairs. They talk big but when it comes right down to it, will all the trump morons really leave home to take up arms to make America great again? Not from what they have shown so far.

    Even mister ooh such a badass from the Charlottesville tragedy turned into a sobbing frightened chickenshit as soon as somebody bigger than he was came after him.

    For all Stone's macho blathering, I think it is safe to say he won't be standing proud on the ramparts urging his fellow freedum fighters onward.
