Dems hatch plan that could make Trump resign

http://www.palmerreport.com/opinion/senate-democrats-hatch-plan-that-could-leave-donald-trump-with-little-choice-but-to-resign/2481/


Senate Democrats are hatching a plan that could lead Trump to conclude that he has no real choice but to resign.

The plan, on its surface, is simple enough: sue Donald Trump. But the genius is in the details. This isn’t a plan to merely tie up Trump in court with some willy nilly lawsuit. The effort is being crafted by Senator Richard Blumenthal, a former State Attorney General with detailed knowledge of how these things work. The idea is to sue Trump over his financial conflicts of interest in violation of the Emoluments Clause, forcing him to think twice about how far he’s willing to go to remain in office.

Because the lawsuit would focus on Donald Trump’s financial conflicts, it would open the door for Senate Democrats to try to subpoena his tax returns and financial records. If the judge in the case orders Trump to turn over that evidence, he’ll have to do it. During the election we saw that Trump was willing to risk losing just to avoid forking over his tax returns, because they contain things just that awful. If the Democrats back Trump into a corner where the only way to avoid surrendering his tax returns is to resign so the lawsuit goes away, it just might mean his exit.


And just for good measure.  :-)

Stupid idea.  Figures a 'Stolen valor' asshole like Blumenthal would come up with something that brain-damaged, if there's even any truth to it.  So many holes it makes Swiss cheese look like neutron-star matter by comparison.

PalmerReport, (SNORT!),  :mental:  :rotf:  :mental: . They've been floating the fantasy that the USC essentially bans a POTUS from owning a business since January or December. It. Is. A. Non-Starter!

Sue hillary, Richie. 

Candidate-Trump said he'd release his forms if hillary released her 33,000 allegedly-deleted emails.  She didn't  It's her fault the forms aren't in the public domain.

So even if this hare brained scam works and Trump resigns, hillary will still not be POTUS.   Suck on that DUmmies....

True story. No really.

I have a friend that went to high school with a huge "red" headed guy that was named Richard Head. He told me everyone, EVERYONE called him Richard.

Riiiight.  Keep that up dummie.  By the time it gets thru the court system President Trump will be out of office

Because the lawsuit would focus on Donald Trump’s financial conflicts, it would open the door for Senate Democrats to try to subpoena his tax returns and financial records. If the judge in the case orders Trump to turn over that evidence, he’ll have to do it.

He can just refuse like obumbles did multiple times when ordered by the court and nothing will happen. Personally I am disappointed that President Trump's admin didn't just ignore the muslim immigration ban order. obumbles set the precedent

During the election we saw that Trump was willing to risk losing just to avoid forking over his tax returns, because they contain things just that awful. If the Democrats back Trump into a corner where the only way to avoid surrendering his tax returns is to resign so the lawsuit goes away, it just might mean his exit.
