Trump Impeachment Tag

A post-departure Senate impeachment trial of a former President is unconstitutional. Just read the plain text of the constitution, which talks of a trial of the president, not a former president. None of the opinion to the contrary explains the absense of the word "former" (or similar) in the text of the constituational impeachment provisions.

The U.S. House will be voting today to impeach Trump. It's a done deal because Democrats have the majority, and probably will get about 20 Republicans to join them. Then it eventually heads to the Senate for trial, where Mitch McConnell has said the earliest a trial could be held under Senate Rules (unless there is unanimous consent to waive them, which will not happen) is an hour after Biden takes office on January 20.

Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi named nine managers to lead President Donald Trump's second impeachment trial. The list includes Rep. Eric Swalwell (CA), who had a recent controversy involving a Chinese spy, and Rep. Jamie Raskin (MD), who objected to certifying the 2016 election.

The latest premise Nancy Pelosi and the Democrats are pushing to impeach President Trump is just as flawed and just as insubstantial as the first one they peddled.  They point to Trump's January 6, 2021 speech and claim that his rhetoric "incited insurrection" among other equally hysterical claims.

The riots on Capitol Hill last Wednesday has caused people on the left to think President Donald Trump does not have the capabilities to finish his term. Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi sent a letter to her Democrat colleagues that if Vice President Mike Pence and the Cabinet do not activate the 25th Amendment, then the House will proceed with impeachment articles.

Americans are dying, losing their family members and friends, and facing economic ruin. Trump-obsessed Democrats see nothing but a new opening to investigate Trump. This is all they care about. This is all they will ever care about. Democrats clearly have no idea what kind of anger this could unleash.
