“He was impeached and removed. He has no standing.”

Correct- as I recall the vote against him in the Ukrainian parliament was 300-0 to impeach him.

So it’s not like a mob just forced him out of office- it was a unanimous vote of parliament.

A vote of parliament he didn’t even stick around
for. When you flee your position, you don’t own it
any more.

Lol..you guys are kidding right?

Does Presidential impeachment by a show of hands in front of an angry partisan mob really sound legal to you?

Incorrect. He has not been impeached under the Ukrainian Constitution. That is a fact.

Holding a quick vote in the Rada does not remove the sitting President.

Yanukovych's supporters were driven out of parliament by an angry mob of Soro paid firebomb throwers and the remaining members were surrounded by the same mob of Soros paid firebomb throwers. His removal was hardly legal. It was a stage show.
