This comment, all by itself, is an impeachable offense. Sigh.
Can you imagine if Obama said this? Did literally any of these things?
Or Biden. Or Harris.
Many things are impeachable offenses; but nothing is convictable.
He swore an oath to the very thing he doesn't give a shit about.
The constitutional crisis happened on swearing in day.
He swore an oath to it, TWICE!
The person being sworn in as President by the Chief Justice that day was ineligible for office according to the 14th Amendment section 3. And he could only do that because Congress neglected its Constitutional duty to enforce that provision.
That is all three branches of the government colluding to break the Constitution to put an ineligible man into the highest office.
All three branches ran by his sycophants, the Republicans.
It's hard to imagine how he could have sycophants among those people in the first place. Those people, despite their low moral character, are among the highest echelon of politicians in this country. It's weird that they'd just fall in line.
Well, we know that some of them are simply afraid of the money that he's grifted for campaigns. And on top of that, my current guess is that Trump, a Russian agent, has been given access to all sorts of kompromat to blackmail them with.
A third are in on the grift. Another third are afraid of Trump ruining them politically. Another third are afraid of the violence from his supporters.
All of these reasons are self serving, and can change if the incentives get swiped away.
When they go low we go high though!!
