Nuthin' but the truth
true!What process is unconstitutional? Impeachment?They are most certainly trying to strip him from being able to run for any office, ever again. It's the sole purpose for the impeachment, even after he no longer held the office. No one is hiding that purpose.Very nice. Trump is no longer in office. They are scared he will run again and it will be much harder to defraud him a second time. That is the truth, try admitting it.Trump had everything to do with it.... He seeded the big lie, and egged it on.The Senate has already impeached and tried an office holder, the secretary of war, after he no longer held the seat.
He was not the president, the constitution specifically enumerates the president and assigns him special powers and privileges and this conviction will be fought fiercely, especially when the charge is specious and gratuitous. There was no insurrection, not even the people actually ARRESTED there are being charged as such and Trump had no hand, conscious or otherwise in directing them.
Get stuffed.
As far as your c l aim the President is different than the vp and office holders......your claim, has no legs.
The constitution's impeachment clause is written with all three positions are held equally, in the same sentence regarding impeachment.
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.
Then that would fail since this process is unconstitutional
There is no Mulligan for a President or any office holder, committing an abusive or criminal act, 2 weeks from leaving office.... impeachment does not just disappear because the abuse took place two weeks from leaving.
I never said it did...But, EVERY American is afforded due process....where was that?
And, now even though it is expressed that the Chief Justice “SHALL” preside. Roberts wants nothing to do with this Kangaroo lynch mob of yours, so, they are installing Patrick Lehey....Are you freakin serious?
Pelosi, and Democrats, as well as anyone supporting this crap are anti American assholes.
Every American is granted due process in a criminal trial, because their freedom can be taken from them, by incarceration.
Impeachment can not strip freedom. It's a political process.
None the less, President Trump, during his trial will get his due process....He can testify on his own behalf, his law team can call witnesses, and question any witness the House Managers present, they can present evidence on TRUMPs behalf to counter the accusations etc etc etc....
Ok, so you agree that the house process was irregular. Now, show me where a private citizen can be tried by the Senate. Also, if it is an impeachment trial, why isn’t the Chief Justice going to be the presiding officer, and what is the punishment on conviction.
