A 'high crime and misdemeanor' is essentially, as I understand it, a regular crime but committed with public office using the powers of office.
So if the President say broke into a building to steal secrets from his opponents offices, it is not a high crime unless it was to benefit him and he USED the POWERS OF OFFICE to enable the break in.
If a politician has an affair and pays hush money out of his own funds it might be a crime depending on the state, but if he paid out of the public treasury it is a high crime.
So what crime is alledged that Trump committed using his powers of office to commit the crime?
Anyone?
Did he take $1.5 billion from the Chicoms, or use his office to get lovers, or to trade on the information gfained in office, or simply steal public money without a trace?
What was his crime of office?
Jim, it is sad to realize that you will never know Trump's crimes of office, because you will never see them. The same actions by someone else will seem criminal to you maybe, but evidently not Trump's actions. Listing them, as has been done so many times on this board, is an exercise in futility. EX: You'd see using the Presidency for personal gain by Jimmy Carter or FDR or Obama as corruption, but not Donald Trump. If Bill Clinton took specifically directed funding from the military for a pet project, you'd notice.
"Did he take $1.5 billion from the Chicoms, or use his office to get lovers, or to trade on the information gfained in office, or simply steal public money without a trace?"
Who did that? When?
