You do not have to be convicted of a crime to be impeached and convicted. https://www.c-span.org/video/?c48200...ed-impeachment A crime is not necessary. But Trump is a fucking crook.

What trial? Trump hasn't been impeached yet!

The one starting this week. He was already impeached according to the U. S. Constitution.

I thought the topic was Bolton?

Yes, it is. I was discussing why TRE45ON won't be allowed to testify with Flash, because he drips lies like regular ppl shed dead skin. Trump that is, not Flash.

The last thing Moscow, Linda, and TRE45ON want is Bolton up there testifying.

You have to be accused of a crime. No crime is listed in any article of impeachment. See Article II, $4 of the Constitution of the United States.

What crime?

There is nothing in the Constitution about the Speaker having to file anything. The majority of the House voted to impeach-- that is all that is constitutionally required.

You are the one always telling us the Constitution tells us everything we need to know about its meaning.

He was impeached when the vote was taken. He is an impeached president the rest of his thieving life.
