The House shifts the burden to the Senate. The politicians in the Senate have to face the public too. Clinton got off because the public was conditioned to think the issue was sex with Monica. The public thought that was a stupid reason to remove a president. The actual reason was lying to the court, but I suspect the public would think that would be a stupid reason to remove a president, too. The political calculus is different when the charge is an attempt to override immigration policy.
IMO, impeachment has to be credibly on the table. That means a committee has to work on drafting articles of impeachment, and there needs to be discussion of it in the House.
It is treasonous when the sitting pResident does it, because illegals are usurping the real sovereigns of this Republic and the pResident is aiding and abetting such an invasion. The penalty should be court appointed firing squad.
you make good points.. but you say it has to be credibly on the table.
it’s not credible, IMO... therefore it will be fodder for MSNBC and they will sqauk about it, even when it’s whispered from our side..
defund... and I’m not even sure how that is credible..
I”m open to what is going to work on this...
Well-said.
