I read just fine thanks. I understand you keep avoiding a simple yes no answer because you lose either way. Say yes and your argument falls apart.

The purse has nothing to do with HCAM. Cite one reference where in light of HCAM one is to defund the president.

Cite one reference where in light of HCAM the congress is to do ANYTHING but impeach.

One.

I’ll wait.’

Again you totally ignore my request for your citation ...be that as it may, I have already told you several constitutional ways that congress can act. Moreover the states have the power to act as well.

The constitution (since you don’t want to cite it) says merely that “the president, the Vice President, and all civil officers of the United States shall be removed from office upon impeachment for and conviction of treason, bribery, or other high crimes and misdemeanors.” That is article two section four.

There is no mandate there at all. It is prescriptive if the majority of the house votes to impeach followed by two thirds of the senate voting for conviction. Because you or I may consider one to be guilty of said crimes does not mean that congress is in any way compelled to act on my belief. You can hate that all you want but the constitution does not mandate anything in this regard
