When we took control in 2006, many wanted to impeach Bush

but Pelosi thought we had better things to worry. And I agreed (not that my opinion could make a difference..)

But now, we will have to go after Trump. Whether still in office or not. Not an impeachment, but real indictment for abusing the power of his office for the benefit of his family but mostly for compromising the security of our country.

I hope that we have good legal eagles working on this.

1. YES. We cannot back down from this one

And not just for petty reasons such as setting an example or extracting revenge. We need to know exactly what to watch out for to keep our democracy safe from madmen and cheats. That means a deep analysis of all crimes committed.

4. If we had impeached Nixon AND Bush, we would not now have Trump.

7. If they had impeached Bush, maybe we wouldn't be in this situation

If our elected leaders refuse to hold presidents accountable then presidential lawlessness becomes an acceptable norm. Ford put us on this path with his pardon of Nixon, but Pelosi furthered it by putting impeachement off the table.

If we want our country back ever again, this better not happen with Trump.

14. I dont believe Trump will be impeached.

Even if we regain the majority in the House this Fall and Democrats impeach Trump, the Senate will require 60 votes, which Democrats will not have. A couple of Republicans might join Dems, but probably not enough to get to 60. So if Trump is not impeached and he continues in office, which I think he would, the best we could hope for is a Congress that at least obstructs his worst changes. I would be thrilled if we could get to 52 in the Senate, enough to stop Trump from appointing a right-wing Supreme Court justice if the opportunity arises. If Trump is not impeached or indicted (because he is a sitting president), I think the country is in for an even rougher ride because he will think he has won and can do whatever he pleases.

Is there a context to this thread, other than general rage? Some new micro- or pico-outrage?

Judging by some of the outrageously-wrong BS your 'Legal eagles,' 'Respected authorities,' and 'Law professors' have come out with on Emoluments, obstruction, etc., I question whether your side has a snowball's chance in Hell of finding any competent legal help.  Enthusiastic to the point of hysteria, yes, competent, no.

And if we would have had Ross Perot beamed up, we would have NEVER had to contended with President 42% and Satan's fat-ankled secretary.

A little reminder to DUmmies: Impeachment does not mean removal from office.  It is a political process, which results in a trial.  Hatred, viceral rage and spite are not valid reasons to impeach a President.
