There is an election coming up next year, Regent! If you think Donald Trump shouldn't be President then tell the Democrats to run someone who you think will do a better job! The Founding Fathers didn't put in an impeachment clause so that losers of elections could stage a coup and throw out a duly elected President! They would be appalled at what Democrats are doing right now!
You're right. Impeachment wasn't included in the constitution for that purpose. It was put there for presidents who behave as our current childish president does.
What has Trump REALLY done, Bulldog? I know you on the left ABHOR him...but other than being an obnoxious New Yorker...what has he done that hasn't been good for the country?
Lots of stuff, but his recent stunt of withholding aid that congress already approved just to blackmail Ukraine into coming up with dirt on Biden seems worthy of disgust. Now the fool is trying to say Russia didn't interfere in our election The man is a fool.
You keep referring to it as "coming up with dirt" as if Trump was asking the Ukraine to make up things about Biden...you know...like Clinton asked them to do with Trump? What Trump was asking for was an investigation by Ukrainian authorities into apparent corruption by a former US Vice President...something that anyone who's really interested in the welfare of the United States should welcome.
It's interesting that when I ask you to tell me what Trump has done as President that hasn't been good for the country...you can't come up with anything other than your own belief that he's worthy of disgust. As I said before...other than the fact that you ABHOR him personally...what policy of his has been bad for the US?
Here are a few.
1) Denied
guaranteed overtime pay to
12.5 million workers, effectively transferring $1.2 billion from their paychecks to their bosses’ bank accounts.
2) Proposed a rule allowing companies with less than 250 workers to
cease reporting workplace injuries and illness statistics to Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) — and removed a list of Americans killed in workplace accidents from OSHA’s home page.
3) Refused to
ban a pesticide that’s been linked to birth defects in the children of farmworkers, in defiance of EPA scientists’ advice.
4) Asked the Supreme Court to uphold the right of employers to include
forced arbitration clauses in contracts, thereby denying workers the capacity to press complaints against their bosses in open court.
5) Tried to throw
millions of working-poor people off of Medicaid, then, once that failed,
deliberately engineered a spike in health-insurance premiums, out of sheer spite.
6) Appointed one Supreme Court justice who had ruled that
a trucker could be justly fired for abandoning his broken-down vehicle, instead of honoring his contractual obligation to freeze to death with his cargo, and nominated another who’d found that
San Diego SeaWorld could not be held liable in the death of an employee who was killed by a killer whale. (The former pick ended up
producing a landmark decision that gutted funding for public-sector unions, in defiance of decades-old precedent.)
7) Repealed a rule that
required retirement advisers to prioritize their clients’ financial interests over their own (thereby giving investment advisers permission to secretly gamble with aging workers’ savings).
8) Repealed a rule that had required companies to inspect mines for safety hazards (such as loose pieces of rock that might crumble and fall as they work)
before workers began their shifts.
9) Proposed allowing
hog-processing plants to run their lines at a speed greater than “1,100 hogs per hour,” a move that is all but certain to increase worker injuries.
10) Appointed two attorneys — who
had made careers representing management in disputes with workers — to the National Labor Relations Board. Those appointees proceeded to overturn
a series of pro-labor decisions, including ones that had buttressed workers’ rights to organize unions without their employers’ unlawful interference; guaranteed the right of unions to bargain over changes in employment conditions; and required parent companies to bargain with unions employed at their franchise locations (that ruling was subsequently thrown out on
conflict-of-interest grounds).
11) Passed giant, regressive tax cuts that were written specifically to allow
owners of capital to pay lower rates on their passive income than workers do on their hard-earned wages.
12) Canceled a scheduled
pay “increase” for federal workers that would have merely allowed their existing salaries to keep pace with inflation.
13) Reduced oversight of
abusive payday lenders and
scam colleges.
14) Proposed a rule that would allow restaurant owners to steal their workers’ tips, and
hid a study showing that this could cost waiters and waitresses billions of dollars.
15) Restored the right of
serial labor-law violators to compete for government contracts.
