During his first term Trump was impeached twice. He was not removed because it takes a two-thirds vote in the senate to do so. The Republicans refused to remove him. Again, CSPAN is free to look up and see the actual votes.

after he committed 150 well-documented impeachable offenses, impeaching him twice is a fucking joke.

Your plan is to roll over and play dead. That's exactly what Donny wants Democrats to do. So go ahead, be a fascist-enabling dirtbag. Your grandkids won't respect you. and I won't either.

I don't plan on rolling over or playing dead.I will vote as the rest of the country will if there are midterms. If not, I will fight like my family has done to take this administration the old fashioned way.

The only legal way to remove a tyrant is the impeachment process It's in the Constitution by ignoring that process you're letting a fascist dictator reign That's rolling over and playing dead.

1st, I am not in congress, so my voice is just as useless as yours to make any major changes to government without voting. 2nd, there are other legal ways of removing a tyrant that are constitutional. But again it takes a majority to vote on them.

I never said citizens can have no impact. I said that you can't force a member of congress to do anything unless you replace them with others who will. Railing and shouting at me because I speak actual sense won't help your cause any.

This particular congress is not responding to pressure. Citizens have been protesting daily, yet the congress still grinds on oblivious and uncaring of the protests.

You know the 25th is far more difficult to implement than impeachment. So now you're just making up nonsense. Why troll me? What do you gain from this? What does anybody gain aside from the fascists? Stop protecting them.

I simply pointed out that democrats are not against impeachment. A factual statement. Which you chose to be angered by because you know that by looking up the voting records of each attempt at impeachment would show your statement as false. All else flows from there.
