Star Member gabeana (2,441 posts) http://www.democraticunderground.com/10028775307Am I wrong because I don't want Trump impeached?I want him to last 4 years I want him to bring down the GOP like a dead weight, I want that party destroyed, for the last 50 years it has been a party built on lies that the gullible believe I just recently read a book 31 days by Barry Werth it is about Gerald Ford's 1st month in office, it made me think if Trump is impeached we get Pence, Pence is also a **** but he doesn't come off as an imbecile, the press will legitimize him, he is just as bad as Trump but respectable Ford had no business coming close to Carter in the 76' but the press made him the opposite of Nixon, a good guy ( which by most accounts he was,) but he did represent a reprehensible party, who should not have been rewarded with a 3rd republican I don't want the repubs to have a chance in 20' I want it to be like 32'

BREAKING: Supreme Court Advances Lawsuit to NULLIFY 2016 ElectionThe Resistance has taken the first official step toward ending the nightmare that is Trump’s presidency. The Supreme Court of the United States (SCOTUS) has just advanced a case that could kick Trump’s entire administration out of office.SCOTUS will begin the early stages of hearing this case, known as Blumenthal vs. U.S., on March 17th. If successful, this case may remove Trump and his appointees from office.Of course, Supreme Court cases are complicated and require many steps before there is a decision. It’s important to understand each piece of the puzzle.QuoteRelatedCONFIRMED: FBI Releases HARD PROOF Russia Hacked the ElectionBREAKING: Undercover Reporters Catch Trump in Criminal Money SchemeBREAKING: Trump SHUTS DOWN Press and Goes Into Hiding After Evidence Released. Coward.The basis for the case is what’s known as the “Guarantee Clause” in the Constitution. This clause tasks the government with keeping America safe from foreign invaders.Lawyers will argue that Russia’s interference with the 2016 election was a foreign invasion. Thus, the entire election must be nullified as it violated our country’s Constitution.The hearing on March 17th won’t be a full-blown case. The Special Master, appointed by the court, will present evidence on both sides.Then, the justices must decide if the case meets their standards to receive a full hearing. If four of the eight justices agree that it does, the case will move forward.We are in uncharted waters for the United States. Because we have never had to challenge an election based off of the Guarantee Clause, the citizens who brought this case to the court must look elsewhere for legal precedent.In order to fulfill the need for legal precedent, they cited cases from both Austria and Ukraine in which revotes were required after a decision. There’s a sweet irony to the fact that Ukraine could play a role in overturning a Russian puppet government.Diane Blumstein, Nancy Goodman, and Donna Soodalter-Toman are the three brave citizens who decide to bring this matter to the courts once and for all.When this case was seen in lower courts, the courts said that it was a “novel constitutional question.” However, they concluded that it was best left to other arms of government, like intelligence, to see if Russia played a role in the election.Seemingly in a response, the Obama administration released information to the public in which 17 executive agencies agreed that Russia interfered in the election of Donald Trump.Since the lower court’s decision, more evidence has been uncovered that points to Trump’s involvement with Russia. Michael Flynn’s resignation is just one example.We are confident that more will become clear as this case and the women who champion it soldier on. Perhaps the American public will finally receive the transparency we need in order to have a functional democracy.So far, the White House has made no comment on this case. Team Trump is oddly and unnervingly quiet on the subject.Of course, we will keep you updated as the story continues to break. Although it may take some time, we must persevere and support this case.The first step in supporting the women who brought this case to SCOTUS is to raise awareness. Do your part by sharing this article on Facebook ASAP!

Tommy_Carcetti (28,467 posts) 11. With all due respect, yes. Trump is a horror to democracy and must be excised immediately.I worry if we're not proactive in getting Trump removed from office the type of damage he'll do to the country. If he brings down the Republican Party, unfortunately he'll bring down the rest of us with them. He's antithetical to democracy and unpredictable in his behavior and given his control of the military countless could die on a mere whim of his. Pence might be horrible in his own way but if we impeach Trump, he'll be damaged goods--hopefully enough to bring down the GOP majority in 2018, and less volatile in terms of foreign relations. Any way you slice it, Ford lost and he lost in good part because of Nixon.

Need a spork warning, especially for the one in the middle.
Please keep this up for 2 more years!
I don't know how Liberals ever manage to succeed at anything. They are so utterly screwed up I can't imagine how they pull it off.
