Bloomberg’s Outlet Reports that Iowa Senator Says if Biden Wins he Could be Impeached too Based on Precedent Set

OPINION:

Republican Iowa Senator Joni Ernst made the statement everyone has probably been thinking finally, to a reporter in Iowa on Sunday. She has said that based on what they did to President Trump, “this door of impeachable whatever has been opened”.

Bloomberg News, owned by Michael Bloomberg, who is also running for president against Joe Biden, reported that Ernst said “Joe Biden should be very careful what he’s asking for because, you know, we can have a situation where if it should ever be President Biden, that immediately, people, right the day after would be elected would be saying, ‘Well, we’re going to impeach him.'”

Since Biden is running against Bloomberg, I can imagine the writers at Bloomberg were glad to report that Ernst pointed out that BIDEN could be impeached, rather than mentioning their boss, Michael Bloomberg himself, who is plowing money into the 2020 presidential race, to either beat Donald Trump himself or help him lose anyone else.

Despite Michael Bloomberg’s radical gun control policies that go along with his organization “Everytown for Gun Safety”, he is trying to run in the same moderate lane as Joe Biden, and likely sees him as one of, if not his top contender. Despite this, Bloomberg is likely far more left than Biden but sees a path to winning as being easier than competing in the lane of Democrat Senators Elizabeth Warren and Bernie Sanders.

Bloomberg also reported:

The grounds for impeachment, the first-term Republican said, would be “for being assigned to take on Ukrainian corruption yet turning a blind eye to Burisma because his son was on the board making over a million dollars a year.”

Bloomberg’s blue check Twitter quickly posted the article to their feed as well, with a caption that could lead some to the idea that the hidden message could be, ‘Biden might get immediately impeached, but Bloomberg won’t’, although this is mere speculation and there is no solid evidence that is the intended message for sure. It wouldn’t be too far off the realm of possibility considering all the factors.

The tweet quote was: “JUST IN: Iowa Senator Joni Ernst says Republicans will “immediately” push to impeach Joe Biden over his work in Ukraine if he were to win the presidency”. It’s likely that despite the Biden’s Ukraine mess, it appears as though Ernst was making a broader example, using Biden as a reference, that any Democrat could have this happen based on the precedent set with how President Trump was treated, not so much Biden in particular. But as always with potentially biased news sources, it’s all about the spin.
