One Republican said if it were a secret vote they would impeach


====================
That must be the TRAITOR MITT ROMNEY. He has no shame. He was a coward, and afraid to stand for truth and justice with the Kenyan Obama. I supported this traitor put lots to money to his campaign and to my disgusts, he was not really worth it. The only reason I voted for him was to prevent Obama because he is a traitor in the US due to his being not a real citizen but lies and fabrication to make him qualify. And what happened he was a traitor, worked for Muslims instead of for the good of the American people. He made Iran now the greatest threat to world security by giving him the $150 billion plus the $1.8 billion in cash. This is unprecedented, a US president giving $1.8 billion in CASH to a foreign country.

Not exactly.

Being impeached does not mean he will be removed from office. It only means the House found that he may have done something they think meets the standard of the Constitution for removal from office. The House puts together their case and findings, and sends the package to the Senate for them to try the president, like a court the House's lawyers present their case with evidence and witnesses and the President and his lawyers presents their defense. If 2/3 of the Senate agrees with the House, only then can he be removed from office and Pence would become President and Pelosi becomes the VP.


I am certain that President Trump will be impeached given the attitude of the House and I am equally certain that the Senate will not find sufficient grounds to remove him from office. We have never had a President removed from office but, two Presidents were impeached: Andrew Johnson and Bill Clinton. Both committed misdemeators, but the Senate did not think the crimes were sufficient to remove them.

In the case of Clinton, The House charged him with four impeachment articles: two perjury charges, one charge of abuse of power and one of obstruction of justice. Only the one perjury impeachment article and that of obstruction of justice passed, and he had to stand trial in front of the Senate on these two charges. Johnson's impeachment was more damning. 11 articles were leveled against him, but only two made the cut, both considered "misdemeanors" and the Senate found him guilty; "reckless disregard for the economic interests of the citizens of the United States under Article I, reckless disregard for the principle of the separation of powers and specifically for disregarding the authority of the United States Supreme Court" He was sanctioned. Johnson served out his trrm and did not run for reelection. Clinton ran for reelection and won.

So, not removing him from office does not equal a "not guilty" just as impeachment does not equal "guilty." The House does not need to "prove guilt beyond reasonable doubt" and the Senate can slap his wrist and tell him to not do whatever they find him guilty of doing. Or the Senate can send a message to the House to stop wasting their time on frivilous complaints. And the worst case, they can remove him from office.

If President Trump were to be impeached, Pence would ascend to the Presidency, but Pelosi would NOT become VP. There is a process.

“The 25th Amendment, ratified in 1967, solved the problem of how to replace a vice president. If Cheney resigned, President Bush would select a nominee for the vice presidency. Then the nominee would have to be approved by majority votes in both the House and the Senate.

Before the 25th Amendment, a vacancy in the office was simply left unfilled. The impetus for the 25th was the assassination of John F. Kennedy–with Lyndon Johnson’s ascension to the presidency, there was no vice president in place in case something befell Johnson. Then-Rep. Gerald Ford was appointed under the 25th following the resignation of Vice President Spiro Agnew in 1973. In 1974, after Richard Nixon resigned, Ford became president and selected Nelson Rockefeller as vice president. After a long congressional inquiry, Rockefeller was approved, making them the country’s first nonelected president and vice president.”

Pelosi would only become President if both the President and Vice President were permanently incapacitated.

I would think your nose would be sore and out of joint by now. You have been led around by it long enough. What are the chances the rest of America is as gullible and naive as you?

PR, Near the end, you said that if the Media were even slightly honest, they would stand up with our duly elected President. That's the thing, they ARE NOT even SLIGHTLY HONEST! Everyone knows that! It's probably why people DON'T WATCH OR TRUST THE NEWS ANYMORE!

Radiance, Not only did he give all that money t the world's largest state sponsor of Terrorism. His "Nuclear Deal" with Iran pretty much guarantees that Iran WILL PRODUCE NUCLEAR WEAPONS, but not for 10 years, so BHO won't have to d3al with the mess. The nuclear deal ends Inspections of Iran's nuclear program. Iran promised that f we leave them alone, that they would play nice and not use their nuclear program to develop weapons( Has Iran EVER kept a promise?) How stupid ca you get,believing Iran?

The senator from Hawaii would be my choice. She has gotten so little press that I can't spell her name.

Tulsi Gabbard endorses the Impeachment inquiry... Just a heads up~ need to read up on her... as far as what else she endorses... like ... the usual liberal stuff or is she a Moderate Dem.. provided the "moderate dem" hasn't polluted by the radical left wing nuts... From what I am seeing of her in a couple vids of interviews with her...If I was to cross party lines, she'd be it... she is a Helluva lot more sane...She actually sounds quite reasonable, and educated as well as being a Vet she has a first hand line of sight into things that could be improved... could be an interesting debate.. I haven't crossed party lines in Many years, has been done... but not in an easy 20 years... If I was to do so, that Candidate would have to have a Bunch goin on for her/him...though atm it's a her...

Things that make ya go Hmmmm.....

Grace.. I actually like this gal.. As far as crossing party lines.. she could be very interesting!

Let's just say, for the sake of conversation.... Purely hypothetical.. Trump gets impeached, the wet dream of Libtards everywhere... there is NOT one of the Ass hat RINO's that are running against an emcumbent that I would vote for, the ones currently running against Trump are just as Liberal... as in Republican in Name Only, but are way more dove than Hawk..as the LUNATIC left... This country needs to Be WAY more Hawkish than Dove regarding our enemies!!~ Obviously this pendulum will be Years in settling back to center... that would be awesome.. center... what a concept.. instead of bucking this current admin, how bout seein if there is ANY common ground what so ever, but there is clearly NOT any common ground, lunatic libs hate Trump more than they love America... & Americans and they have consistantly shown this in all and everything they do.. and I would definetely sign a petition to have Adam Schiff removed from congress, what he did during that last hearing, the "Parody" he said it was AFTER the fact.. was Criminal!! in a hearing that by rights been done in a closed door session... was made Public and those of us that read that transcript saw absolutely ZERO wrong with Trump asking the New president of the Ukraine to continue persuing Biden's Sons firm... an Energy company.. they were already looking into, Trump just wanted them to continue, that and Biden's own words in video's regarding his having the former prosecuter of the Ukraine Fired, and if he wasn't fired, they would not get the loans promised.. ALL this under Obama's admin...

Also, How bout that Obama!!~Spying on a Then Private citizen... Hmm why has THAT not been looked into.... all the corruption of the Obama admin and the Clinton Cartel...
