    Default Trump Impeachment Vote Shot Down

    Most intelligent people knew that the impeachment wasn't going to happen. A president has to commit an actual crime to be impeached, and simply being the candidate the left doesn't like wasn't enough. I was pleased to see a majority of Democrats oppose this asinine impeachment attempt.

    https://www.yahoo.com/news/trump-imp...191000734.html

    The US House of Representatives has shot down the first formal attempt to impeach President Donald Trump.

    A bipartisan majority of legislators voted to "table," or kill, the articles of impeachment introduced by Representative Al Green of Texas. One hundred and twenty-seven of the 194 Democrats in the House voted to table the resolution.

    Mr Green forced a vote on the articles on Wednesday, claiming Mr Trump’s actions in office have amounted to “high misdemeanours,” if not crimes. The Representative claimed these misdemeanours stem from Mr Trump’s “bigotry, hatred and hostility”.

    Announcing his motion in a letter to his House colleagues, Mr Green wrote: “The question isn’t whether we have a bigot as President, the question is: What are we going to do about it?”

    “The answer is: Impeachment for high misdemeanours, which need not be a crime,” he concluded.

    It was a symbolic vote, dopey.

    There is a lot of DEMOCRAT failure, isn't there, Annie?

    The president doesn't have to commit a crime to be impeached. The house and senate are the sole judges of what merits impeachment, anything they decide is impeachable conduct is impeachable by definition.

    Really? So that's what they do while on the taxpayers' time clock? No wonder their approval rating is at 13%, about a third of what Trump's is.

    You mean like the Repukes attempts to kill the ACA sixtyfour times?
    Tell us Mooseshit, when was the last time Congress had high approval ratings?
    Run away "liberal".

    Yes, all the Repukes that support Trump will face primary challenges, especially if this tax bill passes.

    I can't wait to see your brain, tiny though it is, implode when nothing happens.

    Maybe we can arrange for Trump to be symbolically impeached?
