Agree that this is mainly rhetoric to inflame the low information voter - after all why would anyone ever find fault with this President unless it wasn’t simply because they didn’t like him or losing an election to him. Couldn’t possibly have anything to do with absolute dereliction of duty and taking actions that have repeatedly been found unconstitutional by a Supreme Court including votes against him by his own appointees.
The R’s may not have enough votes in the Senate to convict, but the House could still impeach. And while the current lawsuit approach should proceed to whatever conclusion is ultimately reached, the House should go forward with articles of impeachment based on many of the tyrannical actions this President has taken. While it appears the analogous defense to Clinton’s crimes as “just lying about sex” will be “they just hate him because he won the election” and “they’re racists” - a full trial on the merits laying out all his crimes and going piece by piece - a few days of trial on each so the full extent of his acts can be aired - will show the constitutional crisis we are truly facing. Can a dozen or more D’s be won over? Huge hurdle - but at some point they are going to find him not worth defending, simply a lame-duck president with no ability to pass any legislation. They’ll take Biden with the wacky hope they can turn him into a contender for 2016.
Good post. I will add that Impeachment would serve as a crash course on Constitution 101 for a great number of our fellow Americans.
Than alone makes it worth doing.
