Rep. Al Green (D-TX) said he hopes House Democrats will be able to impeach President Trump on a wide variety of issues because there is no limit to how many times they can impeach a president.
"My hope is that we will expand this and take up additional issues. But I would also say this for your viewers for education purposes, a president can be impeached more than once. So we can do this. We can move forward with what we have on the table currently. We can take this before the Senate and we can still investigate other issues and when the president has committed additional offenses, and my suspicion is that he will, we can take those before the Senate," Green told CSPAN on Thursday.
"There is no limit on the number on the times the Senate can vote to convict or not a president. No limit to the number of times a House can vote to impeach or not a president. So my belief is that the Speaker will probably say we are going to move forward with what we have now, but we are not going to end investigations and that there may be possible opportunities to do other things at a later time."
There has been a debate among House Democrats if they should include other items outside of Trump's phone call with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky in their articles for impeachment.
Green defended the time and political consumption of impeachment, saying the House of Representatives can pass other bills.
"Now the Senate is not engaged in the impeachment process currently but the Senate is blocking all of this legislation that we’ve sent," he said.
The same Al Green that was bitching on the House floor about the fact that none of the constitutional professors were “people of color?”
Yeah, that figures.
How does the saying go - if you are going to kill the king you better get it right the first time?
just because green says it doesn’t mean that any non-lobotomized Democrats are also thinking about it.
Al Green IS THE BEAUTIFUL FACE OF THE DEMOCRATS!!!
Exactly, I have a hunch the House RAT leaders want to get this first fiasco over and forget impeachment.
How many times are you going to post this?
Actually, this is the best evidence I’ve seen that they are realizing that they are just in over their heads, their witnesses are lunatics, and this is not playing well the American people. So this means that they’re reserving the right to keep on harassing Trump but trying to beat a dignified retreat.
Other Freepers have said this and I didn’t believe them. But now I do.
This is the inevitable result of universal suffrage. we're in a spiral downward. Might get a few lulls in the drop, but she's going down for good.
until someone says it’s pretty, I guess.
In the case of Mr. Green, non-Whites in the Houston area.
“so, if the PEOPLE elect Donald J. Trump we can expect 4 more years of constant obstruction and over throwing the will of the people.”
if and only if the House retains a Dem majority ...
Democrat hate has no limit.
Too much time in the bubble can do permanent brain damage. You lose all ability to grasp how you are perceived in the outside world.
A good example of this is, in the movie, Oh Brother Where Art Thou, the politician who proudly “gives away” that he is in the KKK, and gets tarred and feathered by his own crowd.
I think this is what a lot of democrats are doing.
When you lose the house in 2020....you lose the stage.
“showing these people for who they really are”
we were talking about this very thing in our household this morning: the Dems are showing the country repeatedly and vividly on live TV over and over again who they really are ... and it’s NOT a pretty picture and i don’t think anyone but the 38% of the hard-core Trump-haters are going to buy any of it ...
