It currently requires only a simple majority in the House for impeachment to take place. We are seeing how easy it is for the majority party to ram through an impeachment. It takes a 2/3 v**e in the Senate to convict and remove a President. This almost insures there has to be bi-partisan support. Should the Consitution be amended to require the same 2/3 in the House for impeachment thus requiring bi-partisan support?

I think that would be a good idea. Now that the politicians have discovered how easy it is to impeach a President, every President coming down the pike will be impeached. We are truly turning into a third world country.

Correct me if I am wrong. Didn't Jefferson buy the Louisiana Purchase without the approval of congress. Jefferson didn't get impeached. Washington fought some Indian wars and put down some r*******ns. Washington didn't get impeached. Jefferson also put an embargo on trade with England that did hurt the country. Trump would have been a hero in the old days of the Founders.

The whole basis of foreign policy is quid pro quo.

Mulvaney was just telling the t***h when he said the very same.

But enemies of the state tried to spin it exclusively to the President.

Oh hell yeah, it is so amusing to see cons and trump supporters now wanting to change the constitution because dotard is getting impeached for being a criminal.

Great, hope all you cons are successful in getting congress to 'change the constitution', since there ar many changes that should be made, starting with the second amendment

You’re right about changing the 2cnd amendment. It should specify that, in order for citizens to be afforded life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness; we should be able to own ANY TYPE OF FIREARM (and any quantity) deemed necessary to facilitate said rights.

Furthermore, much like the Swiss, the government should issue firearms to ALL citizens and include as much ammunition as one has room to store.

(Note: open season on l*****ts; bag limits, etc., would be a whole other amendment.)

If you Democrats had your way you would throw out the whole constitution. You do not respect it at all. That is why you are always running to some liberal judge who will twist it to fit your goal of the moment.

This is your topic, and you are the one who wants a change to suit you.

That ain't how it works, so many changes should be made, keep pushing for change

You kidding me? This doesn’t begin to show how ignorant lonewuss is. He is the actual definition given in the dictionary of a troll. Just have a hard time believing he’s smart enough to have job. Even an unpaid one.
