Trump's impeachment.

[MaryL]

Twice. Once wasn't enough? The second, even after he wasn't in office? And then, for NO provable justifiable reason?

 

[MaryL]

Impeach, indict? When you repeat the same thing over and over again, and expect different result? You are a liberal democrat.

 

[Moonglow]

Trump was in office when impeached both times.

Jesus, this is the level of hair-splitting Dems do. The impeachment failed, too. Lets split hairs on that, bucko. It seems to be a political persecution. So The phony Jan. 6th hearings, Mar-a-Lago raid, all the Trump Tax stuff, the NY indictment on nothing by accusations. We have more on Biden and the Chinese.

Trump was impeached by the Democrats, BUT he wasn't removed from office. No Proof.

Trump was impeached to make a political point only in the hopes of destroying his political aspirations.... just like today with the ridiculous charges from New York (and the DA will get crucified if he moves forward with indictment - rightly so).

 

[Rambunctious]

Just remember the dems have to cheat to win elections... sooner or later that will fail to work for them....

 

[MaryL]

Trump's indictment will set a precedent. You are next, ignorant Democrat appointed diversity hires...and BIDEN, Harris and Pelosi.

The Dem's pathetic halfpeachments were a joke. Trump hurt their feelings and they threw a tantrum.

He was a week from leaving office during the second, already voted out of office. The impeachment was therefore 100% nakedly political.

Trump was in office when impeached both times.

And in what manner were those Reps doing what they were supposed to for their constituents?

The impeachment was therefore 100% nakedly political.

Conversely, there is a substantive belief that it was an attempt to 'hold-to-account', to make Don Trump accountable for his efforts that fostered and incited the seditious attack on our Representatives and our Constitutional mandate of a peaceful-transfer-of-power.

Don Trump -
“Big protest in D.C. on January 6th,” Mr. Trump tweeted on Dec. 19 - “Be there, will be wild!”

And his supporters took the president at his word.

what are they waiting for?

There is no other way for it to be.

Impeachment is a 100% political process

“There’s no question — none — that President Trump is practically and morally responsible for provoking the events of the day. No question about it. The people who stormed this building believed they were acting on the wishes and instructions of their president,” McConnell said. “The leader of the free world cannot spend weeks thundering that shadowy forces are stealing our country and then feign surprise when people believe him and do reckless things.”

He then stated: “We have no power to convict and disqualify a former office holder who is now a private citizen.”
“By the strict criminal standard, the president’s speech probably was not incitement. However — however — in the context of impeachment, the Senate might have decided this was acceptable shorthand for the reckless actions that preceded the riot,” McConnell said. “But in this case the question is moot because former president Trump is constitutionally not eligible for conviction.”

So McConnell is saying he is guilty of what he was impeached(2nd) for, but the Senate couldn't try and convict him because he was not longer President.

That's political. His legal liabilities didn't end with his presidency. Let him have his day in court to face his accusers.

 

[Chillicothe]

"Let him have his day in court to face his accusers."

And there it is, readers.
The most relevant.
The most succinct.
The most show-your-cards statement in any of these threads about Trump's alleged criminal liability.

The prosecutor's duty is to show us Don is guilty.
But, undeniably, Don has a vested interest in showing us that any and all of the prosecutions are wrong.

Thank you, poster BlindBoo.

A hat-tip.

Democrats play for keeps, Republicans play with themselves

Get REAL, Chumly, no one is buying what you are selling.
