    So you want a president that'll fear making important decisions regarding foreign bad actors like Kim Jong Un for fear of being impeached? The opposing party claiming the president's actions fell under the "Abuse of power" blanket on everything he does? Never mind needing evidence or affording due process.

    Hell, according to all short sighted people who think that way, maybe they should just install a revolving door at the front entrance of the whitehouse. Maybe they should tell all electees not to bother unpacking or moving the fam to DC because they won't be around long enough to bother.

    And how about Congress and their jobs? You know, never get anything accomplished because they have to spend every moment on impeachments?

    Do you really believe this didn't set a very dangerous precedent?

    Richard Franks seems to think that Trump will be removed and replaced with Pence. I'm just wondering when he thinks that will happen.

    BTW, I voted "no" in the poll. I see this as strengthening future presidents - when the house acts like squealing infants and throws temper tantrums, it can only make them appear as idiots. And impeachments will be seen as nothing but partisan hit-jobs for the most part.

    The reason Clinton was impeached was for committing perjury under oath which IS a crime...a felony actually.

    As Stalin once said, show me the man and I will show you his crime.

    Trump has been the victim of a politically driven witch hunt even before he took office. That is clearly the fact.

    It involved msm Obama holdovers the dems in DC, and even the FBI and other top officials in other intel .

    And it set anti republic precedents like never seen.

    And this makes this impeachment very sketchy.

    The next dem president will be undermined using the same tactics as used by politically driven trump haters .

    It wont surprise me if every new president will be impeached if the opposition holds the House

    For show me the man and I will find the impeachable offense.

    Roughly 30% of the US population will want a President impeached at some point in their tenure.

    Trump got to 50% in his first term because of his own **** ups.

    Not a rational fear created by this impeachment.

    Not a rational fear created by this impeachment

    Democrats in the House have passed ~275 bipartisan bills since being sworn in January of 2019. WHILE also holding Trump accountable for his impeachable acts.

    I really, really do not.

    Who the hell is Richard Franks? Got my curiosity as to why his opinion is important.

    If you bothered to venture out of your liberal comfort zone, you'd know this country is on the brink of civil war now. Impeaching Trump and nullifying 63 million votes which is basically telling the American people their votes don't count, will completely set it off. Especially knowing the SOCIALIST democrats plan to not only get Trump out but go after Pence next which will put Pelosi in the whitehouse. After that, gun confiscation and complete takeover turning the country into a socialist regime will ensue.

    THAT'S THE PLAN

    What ****ups might that be? The fake manufactured frame job that set the stage for the infamous Mueller report that after 2 years and thirty million dollars produced nothing? Infamous made up stories about whores peeing on beds? The compromat Schiff tried to collude with Russians to get dirt on Trump which only left him with egg on his face? This Ukraine deal that only shows crimes committed by Joe and Hunter Biden? You think Trump should have sent tax payer dollars to them so the money could be laundered back into Joe's campaign maybe?

    Trump is more popular than Obama at this stage in his Presidency. Even with 92% fake, false and negative coverage.

    Trump should be put in a Mental Institution rather than be in the White House. I'm sorry I forgot to mention Liberal Progressive Enlightened Democrats which most of what they would be. Others would those who don't like Trump. I hope it will clear up any misinformation given.

    The Democrats set a record for the fastest most partisan Impeachment ever with only Democrat votes and that will be rejected in the Senate.

    Impeachment is the only way to. Trump may wreck the careers of the Republicans that have no loyalty and the Liberal Progressive Enlightened Democrats if Trump goes that far. Trump can be unpredictable and should be in a sanitarium where he belongs. Before it's too late.

    I agreed with the AOI and the vote in passing them. The catch 22, is that politics makes for internecine conflict. Impeachment may now be weaponized for future administrations with opposition legislatures.

    I would like to be totally wrong here!
