Passan had more...

quote:
The second tweet, which remains active on Drake's account @thedrake30, says: "You can't do an impeachment inquiry from the basement of Capital Hill without even a vote! What is going on in this country?"

Drake did not return phone and text messages.

Drake, 50, debuted as a major league umpire in 1999. He has worked the 2006 World Baseball Classic, the 2013 All-Star Game, the 2012-13 Wild Card games, the 2010 and ’14 Division Series, and the 2012-13 and ’15 LCS.

He is a douche like all the ignorant, lawless trump swalloers.

Placebeaux•54 months

LOL @ TampaTiger22.

elcid•54 months

TampaTiger22 is apparently a Scialist who thinks we shold fear our govt. He even used the term “rule of law” in reference to an umpire declaring thqat he would buy an Ar-15 (trgger word for leftists like Tampa) and then stating that impeaching the president will cause another civil war. fricking idiot you are Tampa

arseinclarse•54 months

arseinclarse•54 months

Buy

TampaTiger22•54 months

I hope he comes to my house first. He won't last long.

Ebbandflow•54 months

Seems like that Empire is more offended. If you're offended enough to threaten Civil War and physical violence that would result in death then you're pretty offended. Let's talk about who the real pussies are

elcid•54 months

He can say whatever he wants you bunch of leftist liberal pinko commies!

Peepdip•54 months

Yeah our own dumbass president said it too, so why not an umpire?

TampaTiger22•54 months

Lol elcid , that's cute. Just keep trump in your mouth and ignore the rule of law

elcid•54 months

“rule of law” LOL - You Leftist ingnorant goat turd. You are most assuredly a Socialist who thinks we shold fear our govt. You use the term “rule of law” in reference to an umpire declaring that he would buy an Ar-15 (trigger word for leftists like you) and then stating that impeaching the president will cause another civil war. Please go play in traffic

I mean is he wrong? We are living through history. These career politicians think they OWN us and have gotten filthy rich abusing all of us (Dems and GOP).

Ebbandflow•54 months

But Trump is actually one of the people that pays for those politicians. He's actually worse. Anybody that thinks that Trump is the answer, given his propensity for pumping up his fragile ego and pleasing himself, isn't being very smart at all. But the Civil War notion is completely moronic. How would you know who to shoot? Would you just be walking around the street with an AR-15 expecting people that disagree with you to be wearing a uniform? The kind of people that would vote for Trump or the kind of people idiotic enough to not think these things through very well

Based on first pic, headline should've read: 'Papa John Puts on 30lbs in Absence from Spotlight'

USEyourCURDS•54 months

What are they investigating, Larry?

RidiculousHype•54 months

They’re investigating just how offended the perpetual offended brigade says they are.

Ebbandflow•54 months

Ridiculoushype, I would say a guy talking about Civil War and buying an AR-15 is a little bit more offended than the people you're making fun of. Self-awareness is not a right-wing person's strong suit

Placebeaux•54 months

Rob is based as frick. You go Rob!

DeafVallyBatnR•54 months

Where did he say he was starting a Civil War.

Pianoman•54 months

What happened to Freedom of Speech...snowflakes....GO TRUMP....BEST PRESIDENT SINCE GEORGE WASHINGTON.

LuzianaFootball•54 months

Buffoon

LL7•54 months

He didn’t call for a civil war or that he would start a civil war or even participate in a civil war. He just said that there would be a civil war and that he was buying an AR15.

JohnnyU•54 months

He dumb! “Cival” (sic). It’s in committee. They can investigate whatever they believe has merit. Like most Trump supporters he doesn’t understand our democracy, our laws or basic civics.

BACONisMEATcandy•54 months

With that logic the exec can investigate whatever they want, right?

grilldaddy•54 months

Idiot.

reggieray420•54 months

There are people dumb enough to actually like trump?
