What are the impeachable offences committed by President Trump, Nancy? What are his high crimes and misdemeanors? Now that the Mueller investigation is over, the Dems and their media lackeys have switched to squawking “impeachment, impeachment” every day, but what are Trump’s high crimes?

Trump hasn't committed any crimes but most lawyers are Democrats and I'm sure they will come up with something.

Trump's refusal to be interviewed by Mueller could be construed as obstruction of justice.

They will be imaginative. His misrepresented remarks about Charlottesville will become an attack on the rule of law or racism or something. Likewise his criticism of the Mexican-American judge in 2016 will be a violation of the 14th amendment or something.

The amount of constitutional ignorance out there is astounding. Most people probably do think that impeachment means removal. Even supposedly educated people talk about the 25th amendment as if invoking it would mean that Trump would be removed from office. (It does not provide for a President to be removed from office, only for the Vice President to step in as Acting President.)

The difference between 1998 and now is that in 1998 the media was on Clinton's side and portrayed the Republicans as a bunch of stupid prudes. It's more like 1973-74 when the media was eager to bring down Nixon. The difference is that there was actual evidence of a crime in the Watergate case.
