A possible remedy through impeachment for abuses of power would not substitute for potential criminal liability after a President leaves office. Impeachment would remove a President from office, but would not address the underlying culpability of the conduct or serve the usual purposes of the criminal law. Indeed, the Impeachment Judgment Clause recognizes that criminal law plays an independent role in addressing an official’s conduct, distinct from the political remedy of impeachment. See U.S. CONST. ART. l, § 3, cl. 7. Impeachment is also a drastic and rarely invoked remedy, and Congress is not restricted to relying only on impeachment, rather than making criminal law applicable to a former President, as OLC has recognized. A Sitting President’s Amenability to Indictment and Criminal Prosecution, 24 Op. O.L.C. at 255 (“Recognizing an immunity from prosecution for a sitting President would not preclude such prosecution once the President’s term is over or he is otherwise removed from office by resignation or impeachment.”)."Even so, I am sickened at the extent and pervasiveness of dishonesty and misdirection by individuals in the highest office of the land, including the President. I am also appalled that, among other things, fellow citizens working in a campaign for president welcomed help from Russia—including information that had been illegally obtained; that none of them acted to inform American law enforcement; and that the campaign chairman was actively promoting Russian interests in Ukraine.
Reading the report is a sobering revelation of how far we have strayed from the aspirations and principles of the founders."

Pointing out people spreading stupidity =/= beating a dead horse.Mueller starts from the understanding that a sitting president cant or shouldn't be indicted, which is based on current guidance and longstanding guidance at that from DOJ. I see enough that were he not in office, Trump would in fact be indicted.Theres a sense that because so much of the obstructive behavior was done in the open that it isnt chargeable. not true._____________________________________SIGNATURE________________________________________________

I do not know the value of the obstruction or what the threshold for impeachment is in the US. I am just saying that Mitt Romney was factually wrong while you gush over him and saying he was "spot on".
It's not my country. Take some responsibility and choose your sources for news better. And unfollow Jim Jordan on instagram. :PPost edited by Spiritual_Chaos on"Mostly I think that people react sensitively because they know you’ve got a point"0 -
because too many morons are believing the witch-hunt and politically-motivated bullshit that our liar-in-chief spews on a daily basis. Dems are afraid it will hurt them politically because they aren't tough enough to stand up on a daily basis shouting what any reasonable person already knows. Do you think the republican party would allow the Dems to get away with all this shit? The Dems do a terrible job in messaging. the Repubs get their message out, even when it's complete utter bullshit, and say it so often that lies become truth in many minds. The Dems need a leader who has the courage and backbone to stand on the top of the Hill (pun intended) and shout out the message on a daily basis that his is not ok for the Country.mcgruff10 said:

because the lesson was learned during the Clinton impeachment. You better be certain a conviction will be the end result and the president forced out or you lose your majority. Just ask Newt.mcgruff10 said:

Pretty much this...they are scared of their own shadows now. They know America grew impatient during the investigation. They know that America, for the most part, is not outraged by the results. They have to deal with being Pepsi to the GOP's Coke (or maybe even RC to the GOP's Coke). They walk a tightrope between wanting to go after Trump and wanting to "go high." Meanwhile, they're beating each other up while America's right watches with a smirk on its collective face.Go Beavers said:

Romney was right, there is insufficient evidence to charge him. You enjoy beating dead horses huh?
... but Mitt Romney said...
It’s the bar that the House members set, which was intended to be lower than what some are applying to trump, which seems high, similar to a finding of guilt in a criminal trial.Yeah I m almost positive what it is but just for the hell of it why don’t you explain it to me using your own words.
Pointing out people spreading stupidity =/= beating a dead horse.
They are thinking about one thing and one thing only "how will what we do impact 2020." It's tricky because my guess is that America does not want to go through this process, which won't end before the election. But his attempts at obstruction and willingness to ignore the rules and procedures in place are essentially being forgiven, maybe even endorsed, by the opposition party. It's at least as bad as Nixon (the key difference being that Nixon recorded key phone calls).
Trump is probably going to win in 2020. And he now, rightly, believes he can get away with anything. And I'm crazy for thinking dictatorship is on the table.1995 Milwaukee 1998 Alpine, Alpine 2003 Albany, Boston, Boston, Boston 2004 Boston, Boston 2006 Hartford, St. Paul (Petty), St. Paul (Petty) 2011 Alpine, Alpine

I’d say a lot want to go through the process of impeachment. If they control the narrative around it, they convince many more that it’s a good idea and they can roll that into a message of let’s clean house in 2020.OnWis97 said:
Pretty much this...they are scared of their own shadows now. They know America grew impatient during the investigation. They know that America, for the most part, is not outraged by the results. They have to deal with being Pepsi to the GOP's Coke (or maybe even RC to the GOP's Coke). They walk a tightrope between wanting to go after Trump and wanting to "go high." Meanwhile, they're beating each other up while America's right watches with a smirk on its collective face.Go Beavers said:
Because they don’t know how to control the narrative and have let republicans drive that car.mcgruff10 said:
So why are a lot of democrats so hesitant to impeach if there is all this evidence of obstruction?
If there was insufficient evidence of Obstruction - as you say - where does Mueller state that or that he could have evidence in the context of charging someone?

Do you know what the threshold is for impeachment?mcgruff10 said:

Congress may have a different opinion of whether "colluding" with a foreign power to throw an election, lie about it and attempt to obstruct justice rises to a "high crime & misdemeanor."HughFreakingDillon said:

Collusion isn't the only item to be looked at. but yes, I think we can at least cross collusion of the list.mcgruff10 said:
