The thing is, if Republicans are going to get so upset about lying about a BJ, then why aren't they upset at Trump's lies. You know he lies, right? Is this a double standard?the best way to define or explain “high Crimes or Misdemeanors”.
Trump could be guilty of just about every one of these.
- Serious breach of duty
- Grievous injury to the Constitutional system
- Endangering the liberties of the people
- Balancing of several factors: damage to the country; seriousness of the offense, how closely related were the offense and the official duties, other possible avenues of redress
- Abuse of the powers of his office
- Repeated and various felonious obstructions of justice (Posner, p. 173-An Affair of State)
1. He plays golf and watches TV all the time when he should be president.
2. His ignoring the emoluments clause hurts our system.
3. Arming the police like the military and indulging in voter suppression and saying Nazi's are good people endangers the liberties of the people.
Those are just the first three. And it's been less than a year.
