Rep. Al Green, D-Texas, read the following on the House floor Tuesday night.
Madam speaker, pursuant to clause 2-a-1 of rule 9, I rise to give notice of my intention to raise a question of the privileges of the House, the form of the resolution is as follows. Impeaching Donald John Trump, President of the United States of high misdemeanor, resolved that Donald John Trump, President of the United States, is unfit to be president, unfit to represent the American values of decency and morality, respectability and civility, honesty and propriety, reputability and integrity.
Unfit to defend the ideals that have made America great, unfit to defend liberty and justice for all as is told in the pledge of allegiance. Is unfit to defend the American ideal of all person’s being created equal as exalted in the declaration of Independence, is unfit to ensure domestic tranquility, promote the general welfare and to ensure the blessings of liberty to ourselves and our posterity as lauded in the preamble of the United States Constitution. Is unfit to protect government of the people, by the people, for the people as elucidated in the Gettysburg Address. And impeached for high misdemeanor that the following article of impeachment be exhibited to the Senate.

Unfit in this case is a legal term - -not an opinion on whether he is crass of not or whether he can unite the country or not. Obama was as divisive. The current division’s were indeed opened up by Obama. Trump just has a unique knack of rubbing salt in those wounds that stings for the Democrats but hurting people’s feelings does not make him unfit for office. This is the greatest SJW over reach.
Not only is this poorly worded (say 6th grade), but there are no misdemeanors or high crimes listed.
All this resolution states is that president Trump is a poopy head.

The last White House occupant not fit to be president was 0bungo the Kenyan
No mention of a crime. -Yawn-. Same dull news.
Fortunately, there are a bunch of cherry trees in DC, and lots of hardware stores.
They'd better start practising holding their breath.
A couple dozen swift hangings, and some nice trials afterwards...
His mouth is just excreting the contents of his colon.
The resolution should have included Donald’s tweets since they were supposedly the basis of the resolution.
Another popcorn day, me’thinks.
Where are the treasonous acts?
The High Crimes?
Maybe even the misdemeanors?
These freaking idiots purport to represent the people, pledged to uphold the Constitution, required to act on legislative matters and to educate themselves on the tenets and requirements of our Republican system...yet...the damn fools don't have a clue as to what it requires to impeach a sitting President.
And not a single damn thing gets accomplished.
The Jihad Squad represents those values? Antifa too? Black Lives Matter? Al Sharpton? Jesse Jackson? Chuckie Schumer? Homosexual Activists? Pro-Abortion advocates? The Clintons? Elijah Cumming's wife? Really?
One of his Articles of Impeachment has to be: “Orange Man Bad!”
Oh, no worries. They’re going to win a super-majority in the Senate in the next election. CNN told me so.
They can go ahead with their symbolic impeachment, the senate will ignore it, and WE THE PEOPLE will re elect him anyway.
Pardon me while I conjugate, excuse me, conflatulate my adverbs.
Lord of the Flies was a caricature of the United States Congress.
Well...what is your opinion of this? You were the one who posted and failed to comment on the article.
I made a comment.
You failed to make a comment.
Yur damned right!
Good for you.
I detest the bastards with every fiber in my mind and body.
