Hope nobody expected any different. The repugs are as deeply entrenched in the fascism as trump is. Nothing short of a complete wipe will change that
Ok. unpopular opinion time but this is kinda dumb as congress has a specific process for removing a president which was put in specifically for a president behaving like trump. impeachment. the 25th relies on the rest of the presidents cabinet having balls but trump requires they leave them at the door when they enter his administration.
If you recall, he has been impeached twice already and yet...here we still are.
yeah and that is because of congressmen who are derelict in their duty. other congressmen should keep on doing their duty and bring up impeachment charges for everything he has done. An individual violating the constitution can't be helped and even a department is something that happens but when the administration does not punish and remdiate the violations as part of their oversight then it becomes an administrative policy to violate the constitution and that means the president himself is now responsible for violating the constitution. This outside of actual instructions for vioating the constitution and disengenously arguing that they are not when they clearly are. Many replublicans are wealthy and educated and benefit greatly from a stable rule of law society. I am hoping that it is trickling in on them that not only trump must go but republicans do. That conservates need to rebuild and find some actual priniciples if they ever hope to have a rich enough society to skim off of.
25 is 23 too high.
reminder that Vance becomes president in that case
If it happens soon, he can only run for one more term. Knowing how slimy the GOP is though, they will string this along to give him 1y 364d of this term, so he can run twice more. 10 years is the maximum our current system allows a president to serve.
why only one more? how does ot work?
Basically the constitution was amended back in the 1940s to limit the number of terms a president can have. One of the weirder things put in is that if a president dies or is impeached after they are halfway through their term their VP can run through the rest of the term and run for two more afterwards, if the president dies or is impeached before they are halfway through their term it counts as a full term for the VP.
thank you
At least he'll live long enough to go to jail
Silence is consent. They allow and they enable. The R cowards supporting Trumpepstein stoop lower and lower every day. They love their selfish pride and fear the Donvict's cult more than they love the Constitution or their humanity, or what little is left of their humanity.
Only twenty? Fucking cowards.
EDIT: Looks like it's up to ~30 now? I do see that my rep, Melanie Stansbury is standing tall. Very proud of her.
I'm sometimes disappointed that I live in blue NM. There's no politician I can hassle, and Stansbury is even arranging protests, so who am I supposed to yell at when she's there in the crowd?
I wish I had reps to call and hassle, but mine are already voting to oust his fat pedo ass
Call and tell them you support what they are doing. Make the call, it’s very important.
Every person telling their rep they are behind them is one more reason for them to stand tall. Keep at it
Sign here to impeach this orange raping loser:
Might want to modify the url. Seems that is linked to your account and I could see your name.
lol. Thanks. I’ll change it. It’s not my name. I was forwarded it by someone else whose name isn’t Darren.
Nice cover 😉
Shhhhh
Its still a tracking link. Remove everything from the ? on down.
Is there no way to sign the petition and not receive emails?
The u.s. Congress could meet, and deal with this fuck. End this aggression against Iran.
Republicans are bad people who value personal power and in-group belonging more than anything else like morals or consistency. They are bad people. That's how bad people make decisions.
Third time's the charm!
The US needs to clean house.
If we don’t deal with them harshly at the first chance it’s feasibly possible it will come roaring back one final, unbeatable time.
I don’t like that it’s the only option. But it is.
