George Conway, who is supposed to be a fairly savvy lawyer, became a strident critic of President Donald Trump at the same time as his much-better-looking wife, Kellyanne Conway, was serving as a Senior Counselor to the President. He was a founder of the Lincoln Project, but, of course, he never knew about one of his co-founders, John Weaver, allegedly sexually harassing 21 young men as part of his dealings with the Project.
Wisely, Mrs Conway dumped her husband in 2023.
In an attempt to become politically relevant again, Mr Conway posted yet another rant on Twitter on Wednesday:
Too many people have accepted Donald Trump’s presidency as “normal.” Too many believe there is nothing we can do, and that we simply need to outlast his term.
Let me be clear: We cannot endure another 32 months with this mendacious, narcissistic, rapist, want to be dictator who is selling us out to the highest bidder.
Not only can we stand up and fight back—we must.
Join our campaign so we can take this fight to Congress to impeach, convict, and remove Trump and his cabinet.
He then included a link sponsored by Act Blue, a fundraising organization for Democrats, for his campaign for Congress, a fundraising site which included not a single link to Mr Conway’s actual campaign. A Google search for his campaign website returned this, which was another fundraising page, but nothing else concerning what he wanted to do in Congress other than attack President Trump. There’s no issues or policies page on his website that I could see.
The House of Representatives impeached President Trump on December 18, 2019, but he was acquitted by the Senate. Then, just a week before his term ended, the House impeached him again, and again the Senate acquitted him. The Democrats realized that Mr Trump might run for President in 2024, and were hoping a conviction would attaint him, making him ineligible to become President again.
Too bad, so sad, must suck to be them!
Mr Conway isn’t the only Democrat running on a platform of impeaching the President, and if the Democrats take control of the House following the 2026 elections, there will certainly be attempts to impeach him for a third time. The Democrats hate him so much, that they might just do it.
But most Republicans support the President, at least to some extent. The Republican senators might have somewhat different views, but the Republican voters, the people to whom the senators ultimately answer, continue to support Mr Trump. There are twenty Republican-held seats up for election in 2026, and most Republicans running strongly support Mr Trump, as do their constituents. With only 47 Democrats and independents aligned with the Democrats in the Senate, they’d have to pick up twenty votes they don’t have now to remove Mr Trump from office. It’s not impossible, but the probabilities are almost vanishingly small. Mr Trump already holds the record for times being impeached and times winning acquittal in impeachment trials.
Impeachment is supposed to be a serious thing, but today’s Democrats are turning it into nothing but mockery.
