People losing patience with impeachment 'hoax'

Maybe just maybe the president is right in saying, "It's all a hoax." From what I have seen of the current dog and pony show, the way the impeachment trial is being played out has proven to be a waste of American taxpayer dollars,

If you pay taxes, and most of us do, we know that our tax dollars could do better things for the "people." Having watched bits and pieces of this repulsive trial, Americans are coming away with a distaste in seeing this circus play out ad nauseam. We want to puke.

We are losing patience and have become upset and maybe even angry as citizens and voters. The political arena is now theater and theatrics. This trial will divide the nation and the two parties had better come to grips with what they are doing. I believe its time to vote any politician who has served eight years or more out of office. Their time is up. If the president can only serve eight years, so must our legislators at all levels of government. National, state and local.

We the people see what's going on and the ugliness of this whole impeachment process, that really began the first day the president took office. Let the voters decide in November if the president should be ousted or given a second term (chance), and hold the same scrutiny to senators and congressmen.

I also believe a grass-roots effort should be made to spread the word to remove the dinosaurs of government and put them out to pasture. It will not cost any money. Just write letters, tell your friends and neighbors and use social media just like the politicians do. Let your voice be heard.
