That's not what it says. It says the President, Vice President, and all officers can be removed by impeachment. If Trump is impeached and convicted Shady becomes President. And it just lists what are grounds for impeachment. People keep circulating this very incorrect statement.

Only one of many. @crystalsoul42.bsky.social

You are correct, with a however…if the President is impeached/convicted/removed, it is not out of the realm of possibility that the rest of the regime can be investigated for same with same result. It would just take longer. End result being, they’re out of our hair. Pipe dream, won’t happen.

Well in this example they are correct. They are saying you could have a chain of separate impeachment trials for the VP, Cabinet, officers, etc. But really if you can get Trump and Vance (actually much much more difficult) then Speaker (who would be Dem if this is occurring) becomes President

I'm glad I read the replies. I didn't think it sounded correct, but I'm no expert. I just thought it would be everywhere if true. If Colbert didn't say it, I doubt it😁 Thanks for the clarification

Reading is fundamental! Reading comprehension is a poor and civics literacy these days
