A new argument for impeaching President Trump has gained attention in the wake of Robert Mueller’s testimony in the House on Wednesday, during which the special counsel confirmed his understanding that Trump could be prosecuted for obstruction of justice (or any other crimes he might have committed) after leaving office. There’s a problem with that scenario, notes Brown University’s Corey Brettschneider:
Mueller’s answer needs to be front and center as Congress decides its next move. If the president is reelected and serves his full term, the five-year statute of limitations on obstruction of justice will run out before he leaves office. Thus, reelection would almost guarantee that Trump will never stand trial for his crimes. The only way Congress can ensure Trump is ever held accountable is to begin impeachment proceedings.

Oh the temptation to provide a list of nominations for that helicopter ride.
LOL!
Nice hat!
“What crimes?”
Making liberals scream at the sky. Felony emotional distress.
Is it worth risking that the voting public doesn’t care about the Democrats’ phony charges and want him to serve as president for 4 more years?
Democrats oppose democracy.
They are despots.
Stay sexy, Ed.
These are truly sick people. Truly sick.
Hounding DJT on imaginary charges - the wrong thing
Lib conspirators escaping justice - also wrong
Impeachment- still wrong
Wonder if the right thing will ever happen
The only “crimes” are the crimes the democrats commit against this president on a daily basis. Trump’s only “crime” is not being a democrat. We’re going to have to tear these bastards out of America root and branch.
the ‘right thing’ for leftists ISNT what honest people think
its only the lies they have to tell to keep power
They need to impeach him right now. And put Nancy and Steny and Adam and Elijah and the squad out front carrying the banner of impeachment. Impeachment now! It’s the right thing to do!
I’ve been begging all my lib family and friends to please, please push for an impeachment hearing. The Dems get to propose an article of impeachment, (PDJT authorized Cohen to pay Stormy Daniels), and then the Reps get to present witnesses that will testify that it is not a crime, (Alan Dershowitz would be a good one). The back and forth in the hearing will be fun to watch. The floor vote debate will really be a riot. So, go for it.
