The official "let's impeach Trump" thread

The Thriller said:
Annnnndddd therein lies the problem.

The Executive gets to pick the makeup of the court.
The Republican Senate has merely served as a rubber stamp for the Executive.
The Judicial is packed with Trump toadies. Now this branch acts to merely enforce the will of the Executive.

This is how democracies die! Good thing our votes don't matter and both parties are the same and voting is too hard I might miss part of a foot game by voting...

I think Roberts will keep them honest on obvious legal issues. Such as ignoring subpoenas.

In Official Letter, White House Declares Contempt for Congress

What a bunch of crybaby bitches.

The constitution doesn't specify the manner in which the House must begin impeachment proceedings, they have considerable constitutional latitude in how how they go about the process.

Hell in 1868 the House voted to impeach Andrew Johnson without even specifying what the articles of impeachment were-they added those a week later.

The idea that there could even be a "unauthorized" impeachment is laughable on its face. This letter is a clear example of not being able to defend the conduct of the president, and instead attacking the process meant to hold him accountable.
 
@Catchall more polls!



Nearly 1/3rd of all republicans support the impeachment inquiry? In my great and unmatched wisdom, I’ve never before seen this! Wow!

It's worth reading the entire letter, just to experience the absurdity of it all. I can't imagine any judge, at any level, not laughing their arguments out of his/her court.

Trump basically announced in that letter that he was above the law.

And officially ignored the co-equal status of the Legislative branch, in an effort to remove part of the Constitution's system of checks and balances!!

Power corrupts, absolute power corrupts absolutely, and absolute power is what he is aiming for. We've already had one judge shake his head at the argument that he cannot even be investigated while he is president. The letter is a political statement. Legally, its arguments don't stand a snowball's chance in Hades of passing muster.

We need our courts to recognize the urgency of this situation and blow this laughable objection by Team Trump out of the water.
