Problem is that impeachment is a political process and does not imply removal or indictment. It's basically a slap on the wrist, it's only being done because the constitution only mentions impeachment as an option. The founding fathers never conceived that the president would ever be a life long con artist criminal.
@@reveranttangent1771 The impeachment of Clinton showed that it is possible to be impeached without removal from office. I don't think anyone expected impeachment to be successful so long as the Republicans control the Senate. I'm sure that the impeachment was started as late as it was to drag over the election so that the dishonesty of the Trump administration and the clownish defenses of the Republicans would dominate the news cycle through the campaign though there is the danger that republican supporters will just tune everything out to support their personal cognitive bias. It would take a democratic control of at least the House and the Senate in 2020 for a successful removal of Trump either through election or impeachment. The removal of Trump is up to the American people.

It didn't take quid pro quo. Asking for the investigation into a political rival was enough on its own. Everything before was most definitely NOT acceptable. "Quid Pro Quo" has just stuck in the public's mind. If by everything before you mean Trump's actions since his election - many things were not acceptable and many Dems were itching to start impeachment hearings, but Nancy Pelosi is a brilliant strategist and she insisted that they wait. She knew that if they had started earlier, public opinion wouldn't have been behind the move; but once the Ukraine affair surfaced, they had what they needed - they literally had no choice but to proceed. Pelosi knew the American public had to understand the seriousness of the behavior and the need for enquiry, otherwise Repubs would have just called the whole thing a witch hunt.

It's hilarious how he's constantly under the impression that anyone cares if he knows who they are. XD He still thinks he's some kind of star-maker or something.
While yes that sounds cool to say. It is in no way the proper response to make. For the two following reasons below. 1)He is the President of The United States and is live tweeting his own impeachment hearings. In order to attempt to discredit and intimidate the witnesses. By saying you don't mind him doing so. You are making it seem as if what he is doing isn't a big deal. When in reality it is a huge fucking deal and very dangerous. It should shame everyone in the country to watch him do this. It is a disgrace to the office. It is a disgrace to the country and everyone in it. By normalizing it or insinuating it is no big deal. You are being a part of the problem. 2)Regardless if you think Trump is a clown. He is still the President of the United States. He has an immense amount of power to destroy his critics. Which he has shown he will gladly use as much as possible. One of his biggest weapons is his supporters. A good size chunk of who are genuinely crazy angry violent people. That have shown they will believe anything Trump tells them. Treating anything he says as if it is coming from god. Regardless if Trump may not actually respond with actual violence. He knows perfectly well that when he does and says and tweets stuff like this. There is every chance one of his deranged supporters will take it as a green light to attack. Doing everything from sending death threats to doxxing to actually physically assaulting to very possibly trying to kill them.
He has not made our country " Great Again ". In less than a term, he's made much of our country ungrateful for our Constitution. Can people not see that ? This isn't a game. Let's stop this madness, and begin repairing the damage the minute he's gone. It won't be easy, but if done properly, we can come out this stronger than ever. But it is going to take time. Quite possibly a long time, with the damage he's caused. The sooner he's gone, the sooner we can get on with it.
@M.D.Metal No, not entertaining. They just make me shake my head in disbelief. It's an insult to the US presidency to see the overgrown man-baby do what he does while he's in the White House. I'm afraid the entertainment value went south long ago. Now it's all reduced to pathetic whimpering from a bitter, old fool. The sooner he's out, the better. I'm sure we can find something else to laugh about afterwards 🙂.
Think of it this way: If you cringe at his Twitter tirades, he's won and lives in your head rent-free. I just learned to have fun with his BS, The jokes write themselves where Donny is concerned. 😎🍺
@@MDMetal The only time I see any of his tweets are in the Colbert & Seth Meyers late show bits... And while embarrassing, I don't really cringe at them as much as I worry about my own safety. I mean, sure I live on the other side of the world from the US, but the world is no longer a big place, and this moron that has been elected to lead the USA is not just a clown and an embarrassment. He is dangerous!
Then the Rohan theme, then the Lothlorien theme. Love Howard Shore. Here’s a pet peeve tangent: A weird amount of people seem to think it’s John Williams, I think because of the French horns and use of themes and motifs, which are very Williamsy. But it’s so good. 😭 It sucks when the guy who figured it out gets passed over, when people just assume it’s Williams.
He has been there several times to visit the filming locations and even appeared in a bit role in one of The Hobbit movies filmed there so I think that is already ticked off his Bucket List.
Pardeep Parmar Yeah, he really has a lot of good quotes. He has a lot of pathos. He kind of reminds me of Faramir in that way. Then there’s Gandalf’s morality quotes that are also awesome. But some of those are used so often that it dilutes the impact. Theoden’s quotes are less used enough that they really... man, they hit! Sometimes in these situations it’s hard to decide if you go funny or iconic or something that rings with truth, but the “reckless hate,” thing has come back to me several times since I saw it, so I’d say you picked correctly! I’m glad to know that Tolkien is still being consumed and celebrated by people.
"Why did I go to New Zealand?" Stephen, we've watched you long enough to know why YOU of all people went to New Zealand. Because they're taking the hobbits to Eisenguard.

You went to New Zealand because of Lord of the Rings, and we all know it.
Sarah Balcom Someone who sees straight to the heart of the matter. Damn right he did.
That's exactly what I thought straight off. I hope he got to visit Hobbiton.
And for the record, the South Island of New Zealand has a lot penquins.
Citadel of winds I’m pretty sure he’s been to NZ a few times. He’s a big LOTR fan so he’s probably seen a lot of the filming locations
And I don't blame him for wanting to see dear Frodo.
Honestly I think at this point, being attacked by Trump would be a compliment - they're doing something RIGHT.

@@TeamLegacyFTW Alot of conservative Americans want to see this asshole go.
Am The Only One Waiting For Trump To Leave Office?!
Our country has got to remove this man as president.he is dangerous and a threat to our security.
WHAT ARE THEY WAITING FOR?
@@gilbeanes4955 For it to affect them personally in a negative way.
Don't forget, he made the rich and powerful an absurd and unsustainable amount of money- hin and his hand picked leeches and sycophants.
There's only 7 billion people also waiting for Trump to go, Edgar.
At least, in this way, he is giving us something to live for.
No one finds it weird that DJT can spell Yovanovitch on first try but can spell his own wife’s??
Dems would find that impeachable
*can’t
@@dma69nyc very likely
Someone probably helped him with the spelling.
The difference is easy to guess. He think he can write his wife name while he probably did not even tried to write Yovanovitch and just asked someone to write for him or had a written reference
Thank Eru (Stephen'll get that) for you Stephen Colbert, you're making it possible to get through these ugly years.👊
Of course he did.
She's a woman.
And we all know in what regards he holds women...
His inferiorty-complex in regards to people braver, more competent, more accomplished, and more respected, tend to make him lash out and inflate like a scared frog in front of a bigger predator.
Loved your frog depiction! Well done!
So that stupid walk of his a defense mechanism? Chest puffed out to look bigger.
Leave 🐸 frogs alone lol trumps a turd
Thanks again Stephen Colbert, for keeping me sane through this.
So... 45 wan't watching the testimony. He just happen to tweet during Ambassador Yovanovitch testimony... Coininki-dink? I think not.
Thank Mrs. Williams for your courage and doing what is right.
Note to self: do NOT drink coffee during Colbert!
😂
Or French fries with a prune juice chaser
susan yee 😂😂😂💖✨💖✨😂
@@michaelwertzy9808 yeah, that would turn out even worse! I'll keep that in mind, too!
*covfefe
You're the best Stephen with Seth a very close second! Without you and others to "lighten things up" a bit, life would seem a lot gloomier.
still rather surprised that it took quid pro quo to start an impeachement and everything before that was somehow acceptable
Right? Collusion with our enemy, obstruction of justice, not to mention 20+ credible allegations of sexual harassment and assault. . . Hmm, no problem on those, but this quid pro quo thing, now let’s impeach
@@bellas.9253 im not from america so i dont know how correct i am on this but wasnt he by your own laws not even allowed to be president in the first place? and arent presidents supposed to stop controling their business for the duration of their presidency?
It didn't take quid pro quo. Asking for the investigation into a political rival was enough on its own. Everything before was most definitely NOT acceptable. "Quid Pro Quo" has just stuck in the public's mind. If by everything before you mean Trump's actions since his election - many things were not acceptable and many Dems were itching to start impeachment hearings, but Nancy Pelosi is a brilliant strategist and she insisted that they wait. She knew that if they had started earlier, public opinion wouldn't have been behind the move; but once the Ukraine affair surfaced, they had what they needed - they literally had no choice but to proceed. Pelosi knew the American public had to understand the seriousness of the behavior and the need for enquiry, otherwise Repubs would have just called the whole thing a witch hunt.
Brilliant! Thanks Stephen.
Medicare for All is 70% percent too on people agreeing.
True. The corporate sponsors don't want to draw too much attention to that, though.
Minor gun control like background checks is 80-90%
6:40 I'm in tears. Wiping my face. At lunch. With people present. LOVE THIS
I hope Stephen met Bilbo, Treebeard and Gimli.
You know Gimli was just an actor, right? The other two are real though.
Wouldn’t you love to meet an Ent? I’d also take meeting an Entwife. Even a Huron would be acceptable at this point. 🤔 It’d also be sick to meet the Lady of the Golden Wood, but I think she moved, like, 15 years ago, and no ones been able to get in touch with her. Weird.
@@SunflowerSpotlight Are you beautiful and terrible as the dawn? Treacherous as the sea?! SHALL I LOVE YOU AND DESPAIR?
No? Aight \o/ I'll go to the Green Dragon and get some drink and huge piece 'a meat. Maybe be sneaky and look for a firework :>
Iron Fan I mean, I don’t like to brag, but... I *am* pretty darned treacherous. It’s my best feature. Aside from my amazing humility, of course. So awesome, in fact, that when I hang up my Ring of Adamant and retire, I’m thinking of just getting on a boat, sailing West, nothing between me and that sweet silver glass horizon. I’ve never been to the Green Dragon, but man, I’ve heard some stories. 😳 The drinking songs ALONE are prodigious. Respect. Stay fantastical, my friend. 😜
Witness intimidation in real-time and the GOP ignores it.
too bad these are so short...cant get enough of these stories...don and the giant impeach...hope you do another book
We all know he went to New Zealand because of LotR.
I hope he met Gandalf.
Lord Baldomort! Priceless!
I'm from NZ and I'm addicted to your news. Also, we do occasionally get pecked by penguins...
😆
How? *is confused*
Oh you poor dears! Send in the Red Cross immediately! 😱
@@markmh835 I appreciate your concern
Are they rock-hoppers? Those are my favorite kind of penguins. I mean, I wouldn't want to be pecked by them, but they're adorable.
USA vs 🍑
...the battle continues...
I genuinely can't wait to hear more about your trip to New Zealand, Stephen! 😊 I'm also jealous - I hope to go there, too, someday.
NZ is lucky to have you, if only for a moment
Wonder how often they regret taking Fridays off... always the loco news day
The whole Republican party is a 'Frank Drebin standing in front of a burning fireworks factory' gif.
GOP: The facts were in the factory. We blame the media.
Nothing to see here...
Who's Frank Drebin?
@@couragekarnga8735 the guy from the "naked gun" movies.
@@couragekarnga8735 A detective mastermind in the LAPD that needs a 6ft condom.
two hams in a surgical glove! comedy gold!
MY EYES! ME EYES!! I CAN'T UNSEE TRUMP IN TENNIS SHORTS 😭😭😭
3:50 Excuse me I'm eating here
Didn't even have to click the timestamp. :x
@@BubblewrapHighway It's probably best if people don't click it😅
Stephen: "why did i go to New Zealand?"
Stephen :" furthest i can get from our news without being pecked by penguins"
Everyone else: 😏 "Lord of the Rings"
fun fact 30% of NZ's gdp comes from movies, tv shows, and any imagery of their landscapes. Thirty percent.
Ive been checking everyday to see clips of your trip to my homeland New Zealand!! Finally soon!
"..and current Ambassador to The Matrix.." Gonna use that one in a conversation.
These faces are much easier to remember now that I have names like "Storm trooper looking for her helmet" to tie them together
It's hilarious how he's constantly under the impression that anyone cares if he knows who they are. XD He still thinks he's some kind of star-maker or something.
3:37 This is a taste that you can never will unsee for the rest of your life. Thanks Stephen
"Former Ambassador to Ukraine, and current ambassador to the Matrix, Marie Yovanovich..."
“Honestly chairman, I’m not intimidated by the presidents twitter tantrum.”
-The Proper Response When Trump Attacks Someone On Twitter.
Honestly I think she isn't, but it's fair to say others would be.
While yes that sounds cool to say. It is in no way the proper response to make. For the two following reasons below.
1)He is the President of The United States and is live tweeting his own impeachment hearings. In order to attempt to discredit and intimidate the witnesses. By saying you don't mind him doing so. You are making it seem as if what he is doing isn't a big deal. When in reality it is a huge fucking deal and very dangerous. It should shame everyone in the country to watch him do this. It is a disgrace to the office. It is a disgrace to the country and everyone in it. By normalizing it or insinuating it is no big deal. You are being a part of the problem.
2)Regardless if you think Trump is a clown. He is still the President of the United States. He has an immense amount of power to destroy his critics. Which he has shown he will gladly use as much as possible. One of his biggest weapons is his supporters. A good size chunk of who are genuinely crazy angry violent people. That have shown they will believe anything Trump tells them. Treating anything he says as if it is coming from god. Regardless if Trump may not actually respond with actual violence. He knows perfectly well that when he does and says and tweets stuff like this. There is every chance one of his deranged supporters will take it as a green light to attack. Doing everything from sending death threats to doxxing to actually physically assaulting to very possibly trying to kill them.
Colbert is certainly my favorite Catholic. Love his swag.
Conan O'Brien has left the chat.
He should seriously replace the pope😃
He has not made our country " Great Again ". In less than a term, he's made much of our country ungrateful for our Constitution. Can people not see that ? This isn't a game. Let's stop this madness, and begin repairing the damage the minute he's gone. It won't be easy, but if done properly, we can come out this stronger than ever. But it is going to take time. Quite possibly a long time, with the damage he's caused. The sooner he's gone, the sooner we can get on with it.
Nice work there, mr. PRSSIDENT! 😖
Can’t wait for new Our Cartoon President episodes! So, so much new material!
Ted Bundt had his admirers too.
Some people really like bundt cakes.
Only bakers into Bundt cake
I know I should be embarrassed about the unfortunate autocorrect, but these responses are funny.
He wanted to have his cake and eat it too.
Glad you came down here mate, she’s a good spot! Don’t tell too many people about it, we don’t need the inrush of crazies!
Whatever you think about him, Trump's Twitter Tantrums are always entertaining. lol
I have him blocked. About as entertaining as examining feces.
@M.D.Metal No, not entertaining. They just make me shake my head in disbelief. It's an insult to the US presidency to see the overgrown man-baby do what he does while he's in the White House. I'm afraid the entertainment value went south long ago. Now it's all reduced to pathetic whimpering from a bitter, old fool. The sooner he's out, the better. I'm sure we can find something else to laugh about afterwards 🙂.
Before he became president, they were tweets of baffeling amusement.
After he became president, they are just nuggets of 100% pure embarrassment.
Think of it this way: If you cringe at his Twitter tirades, he's won and lives in your head rent-free. I just learned to have fun with his BS, The jokes write themselves where Donny is concerned. 😎🍺
@@MDMetal The only time I see any of his tweets are in the Colbert & Seth Meyers late show bits... And while embarrassing, I don't really cringe at them as much as I worry about my own safety.
I mean, sure I live on the other side of the world from the US, but the world is no longer a big place, and this moron that has been elected to lead the USA is not just a clown and an embarrassment. He is dangerous!
Darling, as an American living in New Zealand, it's not far enough away from all the sh*t going down in the US.
Well the other thing 70% of people agree on is taxing the rich.
that "sticky wicket" pun went over the audience's head like a loose bouncer
Oh, come on Stephen we all know why you went to New Zeland. *Lord of the rings theme plays.*
Then the Rohan theme, then the Lothlorien theme. Love Howard Shore.
Here’s a pet peeve tangent: A weird amount of people seem to think it’s John Williams, I think because of the French horns and use of themes and motifs, which are very Williamsy. But it’s so good. 😭 It sucks when the guy who figured it out gets passed over, when people just assume it’s Williams.
He was invited and ALL expenses were paid. 'nough said.
He has been there several times to visit the filming locations and even appeared in a bit role in one of The Hobbit movies filmed there so I think that is already ticked off his Bucket List.
Pardeep Parmar Oh snap, very timely quote. Nice!
Pardeep Parmar Yeah, he really has a lot of good quotes. He has a lot of pathos. He kind of reminds me of Faramir in that way. Then there’s Gandalf’s morality quotes that are also awesome. But some of those are used so often that it dilutes the impact. Theoden’s quotes are less used enough that they really... man, they hit! Sometimes in these situations it’s hard to decide if you go funny or iconic or something that rings with truth, but the “reckless hate,” thing has come back to me several times since I saw it, so I’d say you picked correctly! I’m glad to know that Tolkien is still being consumed and celebrated by people.
Stephen Colbert is Outta Control!!! Don't you just love him. He gives humor to this Crazzzzzyness that we are living in.😂😂💯💯✔️God Bless us all🙏🙏🙏
"Why did I go to New Zealand?"
Stephen, we've watched you long enough to know why YOU of all people went to New Zealand.
Because they're taking the hobbits to Eisenguard.
Isengard :-)
-gard, -gard, -gard!
I wish this man would run for office I would vote for him in a heartbeat. Yes you late night host I'm talking to you. I really love your style Stephen Colbert. And please no matter what keep kicking the truth right into the teeth of America.
The current president can't spell. Really think he should lead the free world?
As long as he vacations in Nambia. 😏
New Zealand is a once in a lifetime trip. Unless you go twice.
