How do you know that?

He wouldn’t have gotten re-elected without the hypocrites support.

And there were calls for trudeau to step down. You act like this behaviour comes from one side. Thats madern politics. Its more theater than governing.

Its worse in the US. Most of the country is basically split into 2 sides.

Yup normal people and mental cases ie. liberals.

Clinton didn’t get impeached he finished his term. Also, they went after him for lying under oath and obstruction which as we should all know he did. He even admitted to it. Cohen and Manafort are going to jail for the same crimes. With that said it was a partisan attack that backfired on the republicans. The same thing will happen with this Ukraine garbage. The only difference isTrump did nothing wrong where as Clinton was guilty of lying under oath.

Ugh, he DID get impeached, he just wasn't given any real form of punishment because Senate didn't pass vote. I think he was censured. Basically, saying he was a bad boy

To clarify, Impeachment doesn't mean you get kicked out of office. Astounding how uniformed people are on the basics of our constitution.

He got.impeached. and finished his term. Cohen and manafort and their actions are not in the same hemisphere. Get real.

He lied under oath. But why was he testifying under oath..... about getting a blowjob.... in the first place.
- prock

The vote didn’t make it past the senate and he wasn’t removed from office. Being impeached doesn’t mean crap if you’re not removed from office. In fact that instance will show you it’ll have the opposite effect...

I dont know about that. The ndp gained a lot.of.ground so i think itsbsafe to say a lot.of left leaning voters went a different direction this time.

Impeached yes in the house and the it didn’t make it past the senate. What does it matter if you’re not removed from office? It means shat. In fact the republicans lost the house after that hack job just like the democrats will next election.

Please teach on you scholar of the constitution. You’re a regular Rand Paul.

It was said with a bit of sarcasm but you would think he would have to get at least some of the support of the people that would be crying for someone else’s head if they did the same thing.

I'll never say that Cherry is all bad, he did good things. However, he built his persona on saying controversial stuff and realized a long time ago that this is how he managed to stay "relevant" in the media.....whichever is completely ridiculously. CBC was a national, publicly funded, network that allowed him to say things that were pretty pathetic. I applaud Sportsnet, as a private network, for having the spine of doing what a national network never did.

This is 100% factual. It will completely backfire. Pelosi wanted to avoid this from the beginning with good reason. She was forced into this kicking and screaming. Ultimately it’ll be their undoing. He’ll get re-elected and they’ll lose the house most likely.

Man i hope not. Dem or republican... anyone but trump. Hes such an emarrassment.

Let’s face it private companies for the most part are spineless. Any tiny bit of negative commentary from social media throws them into a panic.
I can appreciate a company saying this is what we believe in and we won’t wither on the vine from social media bot blitzkreigs.
The problem today is that if you don’t tow the approved ideology then you must be shut down.
I never liked DC but I also wasn’t bothered by what was said.
Now Canadiens can either continue supporting Rogers media or not.
there is also nothing wrong with wanting legal immigration and have them assimilate and adopt their new culture.

If I say something and your offended then oh well that’s not my problem. If you were to bring that to my attention and I go out of my way to keep offending you then that’s my problem. Of course there are exceptions.
I’m not using any wack job pronouns because you feel like your a wooly mammoth that day or a speckled wren the next.

Gentlemen,

I think you are both wrong here.

1. The House passed Articles of Impeachment, they sent a list of what they thought were high crimes and misdemeanors worthy of Impeaching him to the Senate.
2. The Senate held an impeachment trial to see if the articles of Impeachment were true, correct, and worthy of removing President Clinton from office.
3. The Senate voted against the Articles of Impeachment.
4. If President Clinton (and President Johnson) had been found guilty of high crimes and misdemeanors, then he would have been Impeached and removed from office. Neither were Impeached.

Impeachment is the correct term only if the President (or for example, a Federal Judge) is found guilty of high crimes and misdemeanors and removed form office.

A President is never impeached by the House.

(Don Cherry should not have been fired for his comments, and President Trump is being put on trial by a corrupt Democratic Party on bogus charges, something Democrats were talking about before he won election in 2016. It is in essence an open revolt against the country that elected him).

People.like you, on both sides of the political spectrum, are the biggest problem.

Yeah people like me who propose following the constitution and it’s intent are the problem.
Liberalism is a mental disorder. Yay socialism and communism are great. Everyone is equal yay. But not everyone is equal. Any rationale person understands this.
I want to be a professional hockey player. To bad for me I suck. People are all different. We treat everyone respectfully and like we would want to be treated.
That would stop half the madness today.

I guess you don’t follow politics to closely.
I’ll take Trump over any of those DC insider approved candidates.
So what he spouts off and at times and says dumb things. There are also hundreds of dumb things he’s attacked on every day and most of it are lies.
Thre three major broadcasters in the US broadcast over 90% negative coverage on Trump on most issues.
I think the news on the Isis guy getting taken out was around 60 plus percent negative.
Trump fights back good for him. He was not my first or even second choice for president btw.

I said exactly what you stated in that post.

he's a great reminder that the american dream is truly for everyone

Let me get this straight...blackface is okay and "you people" is not? Canada has turned into Obamas America....Your only hope is the next PM is like Trump.....That crack smoking Toronto mayor would of been perfect, god rest his soul......
- manz3882

And the last 400+ comments are why politics should not be discussed in a hockey forum.

For the record, I don't think Cherry should've been fired. What he said is exactly the type of thing they hired him for - a hockey commentator who sometimes throws 'volatile life opinion pieces' on air. They should've instead let the ratings speak for themselves.

so dumb he can run an international company and become president of the USA
- 2Real

He’s not running an international company. It’s being run by a third party.
I have zero problem with that. Like the career politicians have done such a great job. Besides how does one become a multi millionaire being an elected official when your salary tops out in the mid to high hundred K range.
So please don’t give me the he’s profiting from office argument.
Pelosi, Biden, McConnell, the other California Congress woman, the Clintons to name a few all profit handsomely from office.
Not directed to you directly 2real mostly the guy you replied to
