• The Case For Impeachment Is Overwhelming

  The House Judiciary Committee has released the two articles of impeachment that it has drawn up against the president. The two articles cover only the president’s abuses of power to solicit favors for his personal benefit and his obstruction of Congress in order to conceal those abuses. The first article of impeachment concludes by saying:

  Wherefore President Trump, by such conduct, has demonstrated that he will remain a threat to national security and the Constitution if allowed to remain in office, and has acted in a manner grossly incompatible with self-governance and the rule of law. President Trump thus warrants impeachment and trial, removal from office, and disqualification to hold and enjoy any office of honor, trust, or profit under the United States.

  
  The case for Trump’s impeachment seemed quite strong more than two months ago, and the evidence provided to the House’s impeachment inquiry has strengthened it further. The president’s abuse of power is not in dispute. It is clear that he used the powers of his office in an attempt to extract a corrupt favor for his personal benefit, and this is precisely the sort of offense that impeachment was designed to keep in check. It doesn’t matter if the attempt succeeded. All that matters is that the attempt was made. It is also undeniable that he has sought to impede the investigation into his misconduct. The president has committed the offenses he is accused of committing, and the House should approve both articles of impeachment.
  
  The president doesn’t have a credible line of defense left. That is why his apologists in Congress and elsewhere have been reduced to making increasingly absurd and desperate claims. The president’s defenders want to distract attention from the fact that the president abused his power, violated the public’s trust, and broke his oath of office, but these distractions are irrelevant.
  
  The central question at the heart of this matter has always been whether we will tolerate the president corruptly using the powers of his office for personal benefit. The president’s defenders have answered loudly that they will tolerate corruption of the presidency. If we have any respect left for the Constitution and the rule of law, it is imperative that the president is not allowed to escape without facing serious consequences for his abuses. This is important not only to hold the current president in check, but it is also necessary to warn future presidents that such corruption will not be permitted to flourish.
  
  Members of the House have been given a simple test of their fidelity to the Constitution. Are they enablers of presidential abuse of power and corruption, or will they do what their oaths of office require of them and hold a corrupt president in check?

This one sentence really says it all, and makes the case perfectly clear: "This is important not only to hold the current president in check, but it is also necessary to warn future presidents that such corruption will not be permitted to flourish."

No wes, those are not the actual Articles Of Impeachment...

That's just the version that was released for Trumpanzees to be able to understand...

[Scooter]

Here's a version that Trumpanzees might understand, even if they never accept it:

(1) Trump traitorously subverted the national security interests of the United States to further his personal political advantage.

(2) Trump wiped his ass with the United States Constitution in order to impede Congress from investigating (1).

ec0n0,

that article s0unded shrill and hysterical.

I watched the hearings, I d0n t need s0me0ne else t0 tell me what I saw and heard.

it was all bullshit.

[Scooter]

Apparently "shrill" has become the go-to descriptor used by Russian bot farms for anyone who follows the evidence to its incontrovertible conclusion.

[Lord Jim]

I watched the hearings, I d0n t need s0me0ne else t0 tell me what I saw and heard.

it was all bullshit.

If that is the conclusion you reached after watching the hearings, then yes, you do in fact absolutely need someone else to tell you what you saw and heard....

You're just too delusional to realize it...

You're like a person who says this:

I watched the sunset last night, I d0n t need s0me0ne else t0 tell me what I saw.

it was purple with pink polka dots.

[Guinevere]

Yep, conservatives in general—and especially Abraham Lincoln, that radical never-Trumper—have quite a reputation (on the Russian bot farms) for being "shrill and hysterical".

Trump will be impeached in the House.
Trump will not be convicted in the Senate.
The 2020 election will decide what happens to him.

There's nothing else to talk about unless you want to talk about how he's being unfairly treated or talk about what an un-presidential lying sack of shit he is.

Everybody knows this. I declare the impeachment topic officially dead.

Oh well, I guess that ain't gonna work....

[Lord Jim]

they aren t as inf0rmed as I am.

You mean to tell me there are actually people out there who are more poorly informed than you are?

[Econoline]

[wesw]

I m n0t certain that the h0use will impeach him.

it will be cl0se, I think.

[Crackpot]

they aren t as inf0rmed as I am.

You mean to tell me there are actually people out there who are more poorly informed than you are?

I am sure there are people less informed than him. Just not so many as morally bankrupt.
