    Default Media wonk drops A-bomb on Trump, calls for immediate removal from office

    The unrelenting chaos that Trump creates can sometimes obscure the big picture. But the big picture is simple: The United States has never had a president as demonstrably unfit for the office as Trump. And it’s becoming clear that 2019 is likely to be dominated by a single question: What are we going to do about it?

    The easy answer is to wait—to allow the various investigations of Trump to run their course and ask voters to deliver a verdict in 2020. That answer has one great advantage. It would avoid the national trauma of overturning an election result. Ultimately, however, waiting is too dangerous. The cost of removing a president from office is smaller than the cost of allowing this president to remain.

    He has already shown, repeatedly, that he will hurt the country in order to help himself. He will damage American interests around the world and damage vital parts of our constitutional system at home. The risks that he will cause much more harm are growing…

    The biggest risk may be that an external emergency—a war, a terrorist attack, a financial crisis, an immense natural disaster—will arise. By then, it will be too late to pretend that he is anything other than manifestly unfit to lead.

    For the country’s sake, there is only one acceptable outcome, just as there was after Americans realized in 1974 that a criminal was occupying the Oval Office. The president must go.

    Removing Trump from office would not be thwarting the will of the American people.
    American voters preferred Hillary Clinton...by millions of votes.

    Hillary didn't have the will of the people if you want to maintain the popular vote talk. However, that's not how it works here. 304 - 227 is, loser.

    the republican party will not protect the nation from him


    they are sold out to the Russians too.


    we have to wait for Mueller


    once FOX news cant protect trumpy with their lies ( and they will stop helping them once they realize they will lose money if they keep their lips on his tiny rancid cock) we can remove him along with all the republicans who get implicated for their sellout


    Fox loves Putin but they love money more

    Murdock will want his possession to have economic worth when we force him to sell it off

    Shouldn't taxes have been Item 2?

    With all the things they said they were going to do, they should have pulled a marathon and had it all done in a week.

    What he said would make sense if overall popular vote is what we had used since the first election of G. Washington.
