Trump committed “bribery” which is grounds for removal from office.

The US Constitution specifically states ---------------

Section 4.

The President, Vice President and all civil officers of the United States, shall be removed from office on impeachment for, and conviction of, treason, bribery, or other high crimes and misdemeanors.
--------------------------------------------------------------
“Bribery is defined by Black's Law Dictionary as the offering, giving, receiving, or soliciting of any item of value to influence the actions of an official, or other person, in charge of a public or legal duty.[1] With regard to governmental operations, essentially, bribery is "Corrupt solicitation, acceptance, or transfer of value in exchange for official action."[2] Gifts of money or other items of value which are otherwise available to everyone on an equivalent basis, and not for dishonest purposes, is not bribery. Offering a discount or a refund to all purchasers is a legal rebate and is not bribery. For example, it is legal for an employee of a Public Utilities Commission involved in electric rate regulation to accept a rebate on electric service that reduces their cost for electricity, when the rebate is available to other residential electric customers. However, giving a discount specifically to that employee to influence them to look favorably on the electric utility's rate increase applications would be considered bribery.

A bribe is an illegal or unethical gift bestowed to influence the recipient's conduct. It may be money, goods, rights in action, property, preferment, privilege, emolument, objects of value, advantage, or merely a promise to induce or influence the action, vote, or influence of a person in an official or public capacity.[3]

Bribery - Wikipedia

The House Of Representatives’ can impeach a sitting president which impeachment shows clear and concise evidence that the President committed “bribery” the House is then required to forward their evidence to the Congress. If the majority of Congress agrees with the House’s findings, then by Constitutional law the president is “removed” from office.

Anyone who does not agree that Trump committed bribery. Only Th House Of Representatives’ can impeach a sitting president which impeachment shows clear and concise evidence that the President committed “bribery” the House is then required to forward their evidence to the Congress. If the majority of Congress agrees with the House’s findings, then by Constitutional law the president is “removed” from office.

Are you the urinal on the Left?
 
By your fucked up (semantic) definition, all foreign aid contributions are a bribe, then. There are always conditions placed on foreign aid. Especially and INCLUDING certain expectations of behavior.

School starts tomorrow.

Pay attention in class this time.

IMPEACHMENT OF DONALD JOHN TRUMP, PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES

DECEMBER --, 2019.—Referred to the House Calendar and ordered to be printed
Mr. NADLER, from the Committee on the Judiciary, submitted the following

R E P O R T

4. President Trump’s Abuse of Power Encompassed Impeachable “Bribery” and Violations of Federal Criminal Law

The first Article of Impeachment charged President Trump with an abuse of power as that constitutional offense has long been understood. While there is no need for a crime to be proven in order for impeachment to be warranted, here, President Trump’s scheme or course of conduct also encompassed other offenses, both constitutional and criminal in character, and it is appropriate for the Committee to recognize such offenses in assessing the question of impeachment.

a. Constitutional Bribery
“Bribery” under the Impeachment Clause occurs where a President corruptly offers, solicits, or accepts something of personal value to influence his own official actions. 658 In that respect, “Bribery is . . . an especially egregious and specific example of a President abusing his power for private gain.” 659 Based on their lived experience, the Framers had good cause to view such conduct as grounds for impeachment. Bribery was considered “so heinous an Offence, that it was sometimes punished as High Treason.” 660 And it was received wisdom in the late-17 th century that nothing can be “a greater Temptation to Officers [than] to abuse their Power by Bribery and Extortion.” 661 [...]

b. Criminal Bribery, 18 U.S.C. § 201
Although President Trump’s actions need not rise to the level of a criminal violation to justify impeachment, his conduct here was criminal. In this section we address the federal statute banning bribery; in the next section we address the wire fraud statute. Both of these laws underscore the extent to which Congress and the American people have broadly condemned the use of a public position of trust for personal gain. As this Committee observed decades ago, “[n]othing is more corrosive to the fabric of good government than bribery.” 681 [...]

c. Honest Services Fraud, 18 U.S.C § 1346
In addition to committing the crime of bribery, President Trump knowingly and willfully orchestrated a scheme to defraud the American people of his honest services as President of the United States. In doing so, he betrayed his position of trust and the duty he owed the citizenry to be an honest fiduciary of their trust. That offense is codified in the federal criminal code, which imposes up to twenty years’ imprisonment for public officials who (by mail or wire fraud) breach the public trust by participating in a bribery scheme. 733 In Skilling v. United States, the Supreme Court confirmed that the statute governing “honest services fraud” applies to “bribes and kickbacks,” and noted that this concept “draws content from” the federal anti-bribery statute. 734 As such, public officials who engage in bribery may also be charged with honest services fraud. 735

Fundamentally, the President has deprived the American people of the honorable stewardship that the Nation expects and demands of its chief executive. Since Skilling, federal courts have looked to federal bribery statutes, paying particular attention to Section 201, to assess what constitutes willful participation in a scheme to defraud in the provision of “honest services.” 736 As described above, President Trump engaged in conduct that constitutes a violation of Section 201. President Trump conditioned specific “official acts”—the provision of military and security assistance and a White House meeting—on President Zelensky announcing investigations that benefitted him personally, while harming national interests. In doing so, President Trump willfully set out to defraud the American people, through bribery, of his “honest services.”​

1. There is absolutely no evidence that Trump committed bribery.

2. There is a mountain of evidence Trump did not commit bribery.

3. Bribery isn't mentioned in the 2 worthless Articles of Impeachment.


Now run along and play.
