That's what I thought. Edgetho is a little confused, I think.
What am I confused about??
I just condensed it down a little bit.
Oh. Okay. I got the impression you were saying the House impeaches and the Senate convicts on the crime.
That's the way it works. The House Impeaches (indicts) and the Senate Convicts then removes from Office.
A SITTING President can not be criminally indicted. One reason is, he can Pardon himself. The power of the Presidential Pardon is absolute; except in the case of Treason.
If there is sufficient reason, he can be criminally indicted AFTER he is removed from Office but that would be superfluous. And that probably wouldn't happen since whoever succeeds the then-removed President would almost certainly pardon him.
Had the Senate convicted and removed The Rapist, do you think for one second that ManBearPig wouldn't have pardoned him?
Ford pardoned Nixon but that was mostly to keep the Republic from an armed conflict.
I lived through it. People were PISSED. Nixon did the right thing by stepping down. He got caught in too many lies.
Clinton, too. He just got caught in too many lies but didn't have the grace to step down. Had either or both of them just told the DISGUSTING FILTH to go **** their dead aunts, nothing would have happened. They just kept talking and kept digging their own graves.
Watch and listen as this life support system for a vag talks about the latest news re no indictments.
