“Treason, bribery or OTHER HIGH CRIMES or misdemeanors.

Oops is right. Your own link shows how full of it you are. Apparently you did not even read, or more likely completely lacked any understanding of, your own link. It completely contradicts you. Why doesn’t that surprise me. :Boom2:


The notion that only criminal conduct can constitute sufficient grounds for impeachment does not comport with either the views of the founders or with historical practice.[1] Alexander Hamilton, in Federalist 65, described impeachable offenses as arising from "the misconduct of public men, or in other words from the abuse or violation of some public trust".[7] Such offenses were "political, as they relate chiefly to injuries done immediately to the society itself".[7] According to this reasoning, impeachable conduct could include behavior that violates an official's duty to the country, even if such conduct is not necessarily a prosecutable offense. Indeed, in the past both houses of Congress have given the phrase "high Crimes and Misdemeanors" a broad reading, finding that impeachable offenses need not be limited to criminal conduct.[1][8]

Oops!

Seems the words “other high crimes” indicates you must have a crime to impeach a President.

What crime has Trump been charged with?

Exactly. President Trump has NOT committed ANY crimes or ANY action that is impeachable. The Dems have completely lost their minds. Although I think they lost them some time ago. I first realized they were insane during the Kavanaugh hearings. And they've actually gotten WORSE since then. Just dreadful.
 
Everyone knew after 20 Minutes of the GOP defense of The President that The Democrats were a disgusting and Evil Seditious group of sinners bound for Hell who had stolen 4 years and $100 million dollars from American taxpayers trying to crucify and innocent man.
 
Get ready for tomorrow!

The Trump defense team is going to expose the democrats so badly they are all going to prison!

One senator said he saw the blood drain from schiffs face when they played the tape of schiffs lying version of the phone call :banana:

Bullshit!

Then why did the founders make it almost impossible to remove a president requiring a two-thirds majority vote?

You’re wrong. Nearly all historians say you’re wrong. All constitutional lawyers not on Trump’s payroll, say you’re wrong.

What does requiring a two-thirds vote have to do with whether impeachable offenses have to be statutory crimes?

Misdemeanors – bad acts or bad conduct on the part of a president; in Trump’s case abuse of power and contempt of Congress.

As already correctly noted: a president can be removed from office via the impeachment process absent alleged criminal wrongdoing.

Remember that...We have already written the articles of impeachment for the next democrat president! Who ever it may be.

As soon as they utter the words "so help me God" the impeachment begins!
