It’s going nowhere costing millions and you know it. Why not act like an American and support the future instead of whining about the non changeable past? @Graylight

@jackjjackson No one's trying to change the past. They're trying to change the future, and the impeachment process has barely begun.

Millions have been poured wastefully into the Mueller witch hunt. @Graylight
Graylight · 51-55, F
@jackjjackson I'm sure it's expensive. But a witch hunt it's not. There's more than one reason impeachment should be sought.

Of course, he could always do the honorable thing like Nixon, and simply resign in the face of being caught out.

As if you’d suggest that had Mrs Clinton won having way more baggage than the President. Being a hypocrite doesn’t suit you 😉 @Graylight

@jackjjackson Playing "what if" is a waste of time. Saying "Hillary would've..." is simply a clever but tired way of not deflecting debate.

Please list five convincing facts that would persuade reasonable open minded people that the President will not compiete the term for which he was constitutionally elected for a reason other than health. I do have a sneaking suspicion thet st the last minute the president will say something along the lines of “I’ve done a fantastic job my work here is done I’m outta here and not seek re-election”. Personally I would be fine with that. Ideally I’d like to see both parties have fresh faced candidates in 2020 aged 45-50. @Graylight

*The president swears an oath to “faithfully execute the laws & the constitution.” That’s Article II Section 2.
Trump is unfaithfully executing his duties as president by accusing Obama of undertaking an illegal and impeachable act with no evidence to support the accusation.

*Article I Section 9 of the Constitution forbids government officials from taking things of value from foreign governments.
Trump is profiting from Trump International Hotel by steering foreign diplomatic delegations to it and will make further money via China’s recent decision to grant his trademark applications for the Trump brand – decisions Chinese authorities arrived at directly because of decisions Trump has made as president.

*The 1st Amendment to the Constitution bars any law “respecting an establishment of religion or prohibiting the free exercise thereof.”
Trump's travel ban on 6 Muslim countries violates that provision.

*The 1st Amendment also bars “abridging the freedom of the press.”
He has labeled the media "enemies of the people," branded them falsely as liars, called for their investigation and sanction and invited to press conferences only those who’ve given him favorable coverage.

*Article II Section 3 of the Constitution defines “treason against the United States” as “adhering to their enemies, giving them aid and comfort.”
Evidence is mounting that Trump and his aides colluded with Russian operatives to win the 2016 presidential election. If that's proven, impeachment is a given.

And the last, completely subjective and my opinion only, is that no nation should be run by a textbook narcissist with a 4th grader's grasp of global and national politics.

Trump has in no way divested himself from financial concerns. Merely "rearranged" holdings and titles to make it appear so.

The travel ban is specifically on Muslims, members of a religion. Not Islamic fundamentalists. Further, the countries added to the list have had almost nothing to do with terrorism in the last ten years according to multiple sources and statistics.

Exclusion from presidential briefings does not have to be physical. Even other countries have made note of specific exclusion of members of the press. Further, the rest of the allegations stand.

We'll see what happens. Personally, I think someone who brings up this much debate about his fitness for office should be impeached, period. It's not about defending a side - it's about defending the country from deceptive and/or inept leadership.

I could accuse you of who knows what doesn’t mean a wit but as a gentleman of course I would not. You have no qualms about spewing whatever the left pits in your inbox. It’s simply made up rumors and name calling. @Graylight

@jackjjackson Ahem, he did quite a bit more than express an opinion. He kicked off an entire federal investigation into President Obama's supposed spying on him. It involved Congressional hearings and an FBI investigation. Do you remember the famous Chavetz escapade to the White House, when he thought he found something, which turned out to be nothing. Let's also not forget about the investigation into the alleged 5M illegal votes. That's ongoing, and keeps quite a few people from quite a few agencies busy.

While the President "divested" himself from assets, his break is not clean. Both his daughter and son-in-law, were given very high profile positions, allowing them to create a ton of new business contacts. Neither of them has life, educational or general business expressing justifying their appointments. It's stunning that the "right" has not said anything about it.

No networks have been excluded..." He's on the record, and on video, angrily refusing to take questions from certain networks, specifically saying things like 'no questions from you, fake news'. He tweets nearly on daily basis accusing the press that does not praise him, of being fake news, and he said that the FCC should not renew certain media outlets licenses, for no other reason than not supporting his agenda. This relentless attack on the press is a direct attack on the 1st amendment.

We, the citizens of the USA, should expect better from our President. If he wants people to respect him, he needs to act Presidential.
