Impeachment doesn’t require a congressional vote either then
Just a pull of an index finger.
I thought this was how he was elected.
He’s been impeached it didn’t do squat
Iirc you need like 3/4 vote to remove from office
Only two thirds of the senate
https://www.senate.gov/about/powers-procedures/impeachment.htm
And to start the impeachment trial you just need a normal majority in the House
That seems far more attainable
In each case, he was acquitted on all counts by the Senate. Gotta make it stick.
Oh I thought he got fully convicted but just dabbed, screeched yeet and became president
One impeachment came just as he left the presidency so it switched to a “can you impeach an ex-president?” debate.
He didn’t, it was attempted but never got passed
Edit: I mean he was impeached twice but he got acquitted, I’m not even sure how that is legal cause it shouldn’t.
3 times is the charm… 4 times is also the charm… so is 5 times. Keep impeaching him.
Impeach is the term for the trial thingy not getting removed.
Republicans blocked any evidence from being presented in the trial, and the Democrats took it lying down which is why he was aquitted.
Underlying that is also they’re scared shitless of his violent cult followers
Lol.
America the brave is sitting by while a fat, orange felon rapist shits on our Constitution and tanks our economy.
The brave are exercising their freedom to be fucked
So due process is no longer a thing.
Got it.
Hey Maga when Trump turns this on you and you piss and moan about no due process… My response will be this
🖕
They’re already complaining. The Gestapo has already started picking up MAGAts and their wives.
Do you know how long it would take to try the cases of the 77.3 million people that voted for him?
Go right ahead and set that precedent, please.
Let me know when this starts happening.
As someone outside the US, I was told that people were very keen on keeping lots of guns to react in case the government tried to pull this kind of shit. When’s the part where they react?
I’m sarcastic; I know why it isn’t happening, and realistically it would be a terrible thing, but, you know, we’re living in the weirdest time.
Death to Kings.
Sic Semper Tyrannis!
I knew it - to the qons, the Constitution is just something they like to talk about, but don’t really care about.
Thanks Obama for cutting the number of immigration judges. /s
He didn’t. But the guy who did already knew you’d blame him. This old turtle of a man knew it he denied nearly all Obama judicial appointments no one would come after him. They’d just blame Obama. No one gets how the government works and they blame the president for anything and everything.
Thanks Obama!
Biden something something…
George Soros! Why is a billionaire manipulating the government?
Then you can’t deport, numb nuts.
I can’t follow all of the laws of this country, there’s just simply too many of them
If you only consider the ones that are followed, it’s a bit easier
Uh oh.
Yeah, Elon and Bezos really need that money for important things. Like to fake sending plastic millionaires into space

Are you saying the rocket launch was staged?
Idk for sure. It just seemed off. Like, it seemed like a big PR stunt. No pressurized suits or helmets, for a bunch of old ass siliconed up ladies, with no astronaut training. No frizzy zero g hair. Video of one of them falling down in zero g… The video of it landing at like twenty five miles per hour, and kicking up a ton of dust and then immediately after the ground shot with no dust still in sight. Then they opened the door early and then shut it, so Bezos could come open it with his special tool. And the door opened inward, as opposed to outwards like every other spacecraft or airplane designed to withstand that kind of pressure… I don’t understand what the purpose of faking it would be, and it seems stupid and conspiratorial, but it all just reaked of bullshit
a bunch of old ass siliconed up ladies, with no astronaut training
That’s because they’re not astronauts, they’re space tourists. You don’t need to train someone how to fly a rocket when the only machine they’re controlling is their seat belts.
No pressurized suits or helmets
That’s because the cabin remains pressurized and oxygenated.
And the door opened inward, as opposed to outwards like every other spacecraft or airplane designed to withstand that kind of pressure
That’s probably because they didn’t need to open the door in space, unlike almost every other spacecraft. It’s actually more secure to have it open inward when the pressure inside is higher than the pressure outside, since the pressure difference pushes the door closed rather than pushing it open.
Add it to the list of impeachable charges, we will give orange man a trial regardless.
Imagine impeachment actually being relevant.
You forgot his first term didn’t you? Lol
Articles of Impeachment need to be filed every week, add to the list of charges each time because there is plenty new every week.
A record of what happened > nothing
Records don’t mean shit when the ruling party is actively destroying records of things they don’t like. History is written by the victors, and it’s happening in real-time right now.

I am not declaring them the victors yet.
Has any fascist regime outlived it’s dictator?
Kim Jong Un/Il. Most true monarchies of the past. Quite a few, sadly.
They’re not fascist. Certainly they’re authoritarian, but I don’t think any fascist governments have stood.
Cool. Records. Awesome.
Impeachment is not an exclusive thing. Other avenues are still valid?
Wow! Imagine all the grandstanding that people will do with “records of what happened” while hoping that people vote differently next time!
I don’t have all the answers, but isn’t it obvious if the choice is Impeachment without removal vs no Impeachment? And the whole without removal isn’t even guaranteed.
how about we just skip all that and have the leftists in this country grow a pair and do the right thing?
“impeachment without removal” is just performative showoff. Without removal, they’d continue to do as-do, and they’d even feel more emboldened (if that was still possible).

A hearing is part of deportation.
Without Due Process it’s literally just human trafficking, which is a felony in every single state.
Without due process Trump would be in jail, so he’s very much aware if it’s importance.
“Cannot give every person it wants to deport a trial” can be freely translated to “nobody would get deported”.
Well then it can’t deport all the people it wants to.
But at the same time, my faith in the judicial system is… flagging.
My faith in the judicial system is the highest it’s been since February.
And our social contract may be expiring. 🤷♀️
Expiring contract? You got traded to El Salvador for a 3rd round pick in 2048 and cash considerations.
Time to get a new agent for a real contract. Unions won them to begin with, which is why they’re a main target of every authoritarian regime.
And our social contract may be expiring
It’s been shredded already.
Despite this fact, a lot of us are still holding up our end of the bargain. How do I quit?
You force the people who are breaking the system out.
It’s done.
BUT… some of the more sane sympathizers are starting to realize the King is insane, and are pushing back. Not saying that’s going to save us peasants. but it’s a sign.
Yeah, the Republic fell a month ago with the first times they ignored the courts and some people seem to think they can give it TV style CPR and get right back to where we were on Jan 18 like nothing ever happened.
Babies, the damage is done. And it’s not even over yet. Place your bets now on 2040 turning the corner back to stability. A lot will come to pass between now and then. That’s 15 years from now. We have passed a generational level of work to rebuild after only 80-some days.
If you don’t already have an actionable plan for what to do next, with defined tripwires of when to do what, you’re very late to the party. Not too late, but late.

They said he was insane the first time around when he called Kim Jong Un ‘rocket man’.
