Nancy Pelosi says she will consider impeaching President Trump, (again), if he tries to nominate a replacement for Ruth Bader Ginsburg.

And yet 29 Presidents in American history have nominated a replacement for a Supreme Court Judge, including Barack Obama, while in an election year.

I can't help but wonder what legal grounds she would use for impeachment...?

He does things on a weekly basis that any of the previous 44 would have been impeached for. She can take her pick.
Really? There are a lot of things Obama did that sound impeachable, but he totally skated on. @Heartofgold

I would love to see any of those brought up to the House... just because you don’t like something doesn’t mean it’s an impeachable offense. @DukeOfEarle

First president to have blood on his hands? How stupid can you be?
You’ve completely missed the point. But no surprise. By Democrat standards if Trump had done a quarter of those things they’d be holding one impeachment hearing after another. But Obama? Free pass! @Heartofgold
Heartofgold · 46-50, F
@DukeOfEarle I was just picking one from the list... most of them are meaningless or inaccurate. Let’s look at some more.

Trading 5 terrorists for a traitor? Republicans including McCain had wanted to release them also, until Obama did it.

Putting young children in danger by allowing men to go into women’s bathrooms? I thought criminals don’t follow the laws, right? If gun laws won’t stop crimes, you really think a bathroom sign will?

First president to try to bankrupt an American industry? There are currently 53,000 coal jobs in the country and it will be obsolete in most of our lifetimes. There are 1 million prostitutes, for scale.

And the audacity to talk about golfing...

But really, if that’s your criteria for an impeachable offense, that’s not even a quarter of what the Donald’s list would look like. I’ll try to get back to you with a list but it’ll probably take a couple days to get it all...
Still missing the point...sigh. The very first word in each sentence is FIRST. Yeah, Obama was the first to be on the golf course that many times. Sorry if you don’t like it, but he was FIRST to be out there that many times. I have seen many people disparage Trump for playing golf but Obama paved the way! So don’t forget that, OK? Point is the things you silly little creatures complain about Trump are all the things you turn a blind eye to when it comes to Obama. But no surprise when one considers how hypocritical liberals are in general. @Heartofgold

@DukeOfEarle No he wasn’t. Eisenhower golfed over 800 rounds in 8 years. Wilson over 1000.

While we’re at it, he didn’t violate the war powers act, and he wasn’t even the first president to do what you think is a violation.

I don’t turn a blind eye to anyone! I’m not devoutly attached to any politicians!

My list is in progress by the way.
@Heartofgold Doesn’t bother me the way it’s bothering you. List away.
