Deplorables don't understand what an Impeachment is - unsurprising

[BoyNextDoor]

"Ahh-Duhhh Why don't we impeach Biden for getting us out of the endless war??"

"I dunno - why don't we impeach him because I don't like the job he is doing??"

"I'm Marjorie Taylor Green and I'm filing articles of impeachment because I think Biden is a piece of shit."

 

[YDB95]

Well, Greene did say in her victory speech last year that she was going to DC to "kick that bitch [Pelosi] out of Congress". I wonder did she think a freshman member of the other party had any means to do that?

Why not? You guys did it because 'Orange Man BAD!!'.......

Just following the DNC example, don't like a POTUS? Impeach them.

The only thing you gain from the use of the word deplorables
is the undying admiration of Rory who thinks he invented the term.


I think you may even owe him royalties...

What makes you think they don't know what impeachment is? As we learned under Trump, Congress can impeach for any reason at all.

Your rules, we're just living by them.

Constitutional rules actually.

As others have said, it's Congress' rules...and they get to decide what constitutes high crimes 'n misdemeanors.

Sadly for Republicans, "butthurt" does not fall under either of those categories,

Bottom line: your guy lost. get over it.

That is how they self medicate. They try to convince themselves that they are smarter than Trump supporters. However, the only thing they are is arrogant. They honestly don't believe they had anything to do with getting him elected. They're unbelievable.

A little late for constitutional tidiness, no?

All that is needed is a majority vote in the House.

That's not even needed. The House makes its own rules in the matter.

You're the one who claimed it was the rules of one party. Correcting you has nothing to do with my position

 

[Cubantripod]

Incorrect. The Constitution is very vague on it. The courts have already ruled that impeachment is a political question and thus courts have no jurisdiction over an impeachment proceeding. It's completely up to the Senate. See Nixon v. U.S., 504 U.S. 224 (1993).

I think it's more narcissism, the idea that their every whim ought to be made into iron law and imposed on us untermenschen.

Then it's settled: As soon as the GOP blows out the Dems in 2022, impeachment proceedings will initiate and the senile old turnip will be impeaced.

The House impeaches, which means to be charged. Essentially, the House indicts and then the Senate actually conducts the trial. There are no rules for impeachment. It completely lies within the jurisdiction of the Senate. They make all the rules for impeachment.

 

[ll74]

And before you get your panties in a wad, I was specifically talking about the House procedures. The Senate also makes their own rules for their side of the proceedings

But nowhere does it say "The House or Senate cannot do this for the following reasons...."

Awesome for you.

For their process of impeachment. Both House and Senate have impeachment responsibilities

 

[Cubantripod]

That's why they are vague. Unlike civil or criminal court, there are no rules of evidence, procedure, etc. There is no standard. As we've seen, the standard can change as the party in power sees fit. There's a reason that impeachment of a president has only happened when the opposing party is in Congress. It's exclusively political.

As I said, House files the Articles and Senate conducts the trial. The rules can change at any time and for any reason.

Grading on this, would be 55%, a D- type score, and you claim to have a BA?

In what, Iceberg fire prevention?


The house votes to impeach ( the house gets to decide on what constitutes the "articles of impeachment"), if one is impeached by a vote in the House, the impeached President then stands before the Senate for the trial,which is presided over by the head of SCOTUS.

The rules of the trial are decided by the Senate, so the Senate only makes up the rules for the trial, not impeachment portion, which is completely controlled by the House.

Bud is the one arguing that "my" rules are what he lives with

Maybe have a talk internally.

"Butthurt" qualified for (D)'eez when your girl lost and you couldn't get over it.

I hope they do it for spitting on a sidewalk just to drive home this is partisan payback for your fuckery.

Thank you for your obsession and congratulations! You'd make a great amateur lawyer. You have a great awareness of material that barely gets any mention in Con. Law because of it's political nature

Nope. Try again.

You angry, bro?

Good luck getting votes in te House to impeach on that, let alone votes in te Senate to convict.

You really don't understand American government, do you?
