Please correct me if I’m wrong, but I remember from my High School Civics classes (remember when they used to teach that stuff?) that there is no Constitutional provision for ‘recall’ of Congresscritters - or Presidents...

Once ya vote ‘em in, you’re stuck with ‘em.....

Oops....

you’re right and the Andrew Johnson affair set a tone too that Congress can’t impeach just because they don’t like the guy’s policies.

some folks tried here in Louisiana

I kind of think you’re correct, but I’m not sure.

But I was thinking more along the lines of “running him out of town on a rail” like the scene in, “Oh Brother, Where Art Thou?”

Then there’s always a bucket of tar and some feathers. Thanksgiving will be here soon, so there should be plenty of feathers available.
