How has he disrespected the Constitution? I clearly don't see that to be true, if anything he wants all of the constitution upheld by all. Never has the intelligence committee ever started an impeachment inquiry, it has been the judicial committee. That is also a fact! We have never had the Democratic party have such disdain for a person that won the e******n for President as v**ed for by the people and the Constitution. Also their are so many of the Democratic contenders that seem to h**e this country. Clearly what is phony it this impeachment inquiry.

https://www.needtoimpeach.com/impeachable-offenses/TRUMP'S 10 IMPEACHABLE OFFENSES
1. Obstructing Justice
The trail of evidence starts with Trump’s attempt to get James Comey, the FBI director responsible for overseeing the investigation into Trump’s relationship with Russia during the 2016 e******n, to drop an investigation into National Security Advisor Michael Flynn.
2. Profiting from the Presidency
The Constitution’s Foreign Emoluments Clause prohibits the president from accepting personal benefits from any foreign government or official.
3. Collusion
In the middle of the 2016 e******n, Trump’s son was invited to meet with a Russian national regarding “information that would incriminate Hillary and…would be very useful to” Donald Trump. Donald Trump Jr. was told it was “part of Russia and its government’s support for Mr. Trump.” Trump Jr., Jared Kushner, and Campaign Chairman Paul Manafort took the meeting.
4. Advocating Political & Police Violence
When Trump gave cover to the neo-N**is who r**ted in Charlottesville and murdered a protester, he violated his obligation to protect the citizenry against domestic violence.
5. Abuse of Power
President Trump threatened to withhold aid from Ukraine if its Prime Minister did not investigate former Vice President Joe Biden and his son. Using taxpayer dollars to manipulate an important ally against Russia and attack a political rival is a clear abuse of p**********l power.
6. Engaging in Reckless Conduct
High-ranking administration officials involved in foreign affairs have signaled that Trump does not have the capacity to make informed decisions in the event of a military crisis.
7. Persecuting Political Opponents
President Trump has repeatedly pressured the Department of Justice and the FBI to investigate and prosecute political adversaries like Hillary Clinton; now, the DOJ has cleared Clinton email investigation used in an attempt to scandalize his opponents.
This is not based in concerns with national security, law enforcement, or any other function of his office—it is an attempted power play, plain and simple.
8. Attacking the Free Press
President Trump has repeatedly attacked the concept of an independent press.
He’s called critical coverage “f**e news” and journalists “the enemy of the American people,” made threats to change libel laws and revoke licenses, and his battles with CNN led him to try to interfere in the AT&T/Time Warner merger.
9. Violating Immigrants' Right to Due Process
Enforcing its new “zero tolerance” policy, the Trump administration separated as many as 3,000 immigrant children from their parents at the southern border. This policy was meant to deter families from attempting to cross the border.
10. Violating Campaign Finance Laws
Donald Trump knew disclosure of his extramarital affairs with Stephanie Clifford (A.K.A. Stormy Daniels) and Karen McDougal could hurt his chances at winning the 2016 e******n.
At the direction of Trump, Michael Cohen and American Media, Inc. (AMI), the publisher of the National Enquirer bought the rights to the women’s stories and forced them to sign Non-Disclosure Agreements to prevent them from going public for the purpose of protecting his campaign.
