It's time to impeach Trump

[DemocratSinceBirth]

He is a dagger aimed at the heart of the republic.

1. I think we can feel the water running down the drain...quicker and quicker......

He's a cancer on earth.

2. Can we rely on the GOP to do their clear duty?

No.

3. Does impeachment remove a president from office???

I never knew that.

16. A president needs to be impeached AND convicted

Impeachment is the House's process of referring an official to the Senate for trial. The trial phase is where they decide whether you need to be removed from office.

4. I've been saying that there will be no other choice ...

... once the Mueller report comes out. Of course if the system worked today the way the founders intended, he would already have been impeached and put on trial.

12. Exactly. Our democratic house majority must do its job if Mueller refers

high crimes and misdemeanors to Congress. The Constitution requires it. If the Republicans in the Senate then refuse to do their job, it becomes a referendum for the American voters for the 2020 presidential election. Americans must choose if they want our nation to be lead by a criminal, or not. And, each state must decide if they want to have representatives in Congress who follow our constitution, or not.

5. We need 60 Senators. We have 48. The math doesn't work

7. 67 for Removal of office, actually.

6. Impeachment doesn't do jack

if the Senate doesn’t convict which the won’t. It might even empower him if he’s impeached and still remains in office.

[Pope George Ringo II]

8. He would, and it will. For the foreseeable future.

Impeachment anytime soon is an utterly horrible idea.

[c-rational]

10. I have read many posts pro and con, with those against impeachment using the argument

that it would be a waste of time as the Senate would not convict. I believe if the dumpster actions rise to the level of and an impeachable offense, then duty to the Country and Constitution demands he be impeached. If the reThugs in the Senate refuse to convict, they will have to answer to history.

15. +1

Exactly.

11. Idea: we'll all start sending him coupons for fast food places..

...that are well known for high salt and high fat content food.
Then we'll simply wait for him to drop dead from a massive stroke or coronary.

[Rizen]

13. Impeach him yes but at the right time

Spanky the assclown has many different investigations against him, his family and administration. Let them come to a boil. If Republicans don't remove him in the senate after all this it'll be political poison. The country ruled a few weeks ago they are not happy with Trump and Republicans.

[Garrett78]

14. There's already reason to impeach, and after Mueller makes more known to the public...

...it will, indeed, be time to do the right thing and force Republicans to defend a non-conviction.
