In the case of both Obama and Trump, it is clear that neither committed any of the types of crimes listed, and unfortunately, you cannot impeach a president for blatant stupidity, lack of common sense, or in the case of Obama, being a spineless bastard that cannot stand up and do what the fuck he claimed he wanted to do.

Nor can you impeach an elected official for letting his alligator mouth (or twitter finger) over ride his hummingbird brain.

And the jackass that introduced the articles of impeachment is a do nothing democrat who should have never been elected.

At first glance it seems that a case can be made that Trump intended to either influence and/or close down the investigation, which would amount to obstruction of justice.

If Thump is found to have obstructed justice in this matter, that would certainly constitute more than adequate legal grounds for his impeachment. We will find out the answer to this, and other unresolved legal matters, when the investigations run their course.

Until we get to that point, it is premature (and imprudent) to declare that "There are no grounds for impeachment of President Trump."

You obviously have no clue what treason is.

I have a working idea what treason is and involves, which is how I differ from you sorry little bitches making excuses for the piece of orange shit currently stinking up the white house.

Actually, under the US Federal statutes, it would not, as such, qualify as treason. It would qualify as violations of the ethics laws as applicable to political candidates and possibly bribery laws as applicable to public office holders.

For it to be treason, he would have to actively aid a country that is the enemy of the United States, and or pass on classified information that has been deemed to have a security value higher than he was authorized to divulge to a foreign government.


quote:

Treason against the United States, shall consist only in levying War against them, or in adhering to their Enemies, giving them Aid and Comfort. No Person shall be convicted of Treason unless on the Testimony of two Witnesses to the same overt Act, or on Confession in open Court.
U.S. Constitution - Article 3 Section 3


As it stands now, the information he passed to the Russians in the oval office did not actually meet that criteria, and falls into the gray zone of not a very bright thing to do.

And a president cannot be impeached for not being very bright.

Sorry, but the constitution is very clear on this point.

For legal precedence, United States v. Aaron Burr is a good place to start.

He hasn't actively been aiding Russia and China, then?
He hasn't been tweeting sensitive information to half of the middle east the second one of his staff brings him a pre-chewed version of the intelligence briefings he's been blowing out?

What a fucking moron.

Look, Trump did denounce the racists, okay a few days late.



President Trump denounced both sides on day one.

This is about nullifying the election. The pussyhats can't get over the fact that their precious queen lost to President Trump



It's always about nullifying the election! Any criticism of the President MUST be about sore losers nullifying the election. How could anyone in their right mind legitimately criticize this administration? They must be whiny liberal pussyhats trying to nullify the election. :)


Hypercritize to the point you are showing us that you and all your pussyhat friends have been driven literally insane by your queen's loss




LOL...

2 loser arguments (as usual)

1. I don't have any pussyhat friends. Almost all of my female friends are right-leaning. (center-right)
2. I have never supported Hillary Clinton for President, nor will I ever. Her loss has no effect on my sanity :)


Do you ever get tired of repeating these?
