When compromise is impossible.

 
Normally, compromise can be the most favorable outcome in many situations.

However, there are some situations where "compromise" cannot succeed, in my opinion.

We should never accept as "normal", situations that we know are false, misleading, or simply wrong. It would lead us to a worse place, in many opinions.

In those situations, where our deepest beliefs and principles are challenged, we must stand our ground.

The question about impeachment is one of those situations, in my opinion. It would be "wrong" not to indict Donald Trump. An impeachment is similar to an indictment. Perhaps, rather like a grand jury?

This is a time that Congress will need to follow their consciences.

There is no compromise at the DUmp. Step in line or get banned.

How does one "compromise" on accusations that are either undocumented or are very poorly patched together?

You don't.

Nyuck, nycuck, nyuck.

Anybody old enough to remember George Mitchell as Democrat leader in the Senate, and Tipsy O'Neill as Speaker of the House, has an idea what these people think of as "compromising" or "nonpartisan."

Reading between the lines and given other recent kt threads I've seen recently, I'm guessing kt thinks things are going ill and thinks he needs to buck up the DU-troops. :loser:  :rotf:

I'm pretty sure having endless "genders" qualifies.

I was a mole at DU for a long time and have 5 figure posts so I hid very well for a long time.

I'm versed in DUmmiespeak. Allow me to translate.

When compromise is impossible. (Waaaaa. They won't have our way).

 
Normally, compromise can be the most favorable outcome in many situations. (Yes, all we want is to compromise and for you to accept our position).

However, there are some situations where "compromise" cannot succeed, in my opinion. (We can't compromise because they won't have our way).

We should never accept as "normal", situations that we know are false, misleading, or simply wrong. It would lead us to a worse place, in many opinions. (Waaa, I'm using projection but want to pin it on Republicans because they won't have our way).

In those situations, where our deepest beliefs and principles are challenged, we must stand our ground. (Waaaa. Our deepest beliefs and principles are fluid and change from day to day dependent upon the cause being talked about. If it benefits us, we adhere, if they don't benefit us we change our minds to make Rethuglicans look bad).

The question about impeachment is one of those situations, in my opinion. It would be "wrong" not to indict Donald Trump. An impeachment is similar to an indictment. Perhaps, rather like a grand jury? (Waaa, we have no proof and Hillary should have won. Let's indict him for losing the popular vote but winning the election.).

This is a time that Congress will need to follow their consciences. (It's time congress does what we want).
